GateKeeper Overview The GateKeeper h4.2 contains both the GateKeeper computer and relay unit required to operate the access control that works with GymMaster. T he GateKeeper needs to be powered AND connected to the Internet to work correctly. T he GateKeeper can also be used to operate desktop readers and receipt printers, which connect to the USB ports.
Power Supply The GateKeeper requires a 12 power supply capable of at least 1000mA. The GateKeeper is calibrated to work with input voltage from 9V to 12V. Do NOT use a power supply with voltage greater than 12V or current lower than 1000mA. There are two power supply sockets that suit: (1) a screw-terminal connector or (2) a 2.1x5.5mm barrel connector with the centre positive.

GateKeeper Interface Relay Terminals These terminals are for signalling the access control device. For loads over 2A, we do not recommend connecting directly. Use a secondary relay as a buffer instead. NO Relay normally open contact COM Relay common terminal NC...

Exit Button Terminals The GateKeeper expects a low level voltage trigger signal in the sensor terminal to activate the relay to open the door. You can wire a normally-open push button (2 terminals) to Sensor and GND on the Door 1 or Door 2 socket, refer to the s ample wiring diagram...

GateKeeper , the other end connected to an Network port on the router or a switch. Please ensure Internet access for this connection. The GateKeeper can operate for short periods in Offline Mode during a network outage, as long as the GateKeeper, door lock components, and facility network components have electrical power.
Sample Wiring Diagrams These wiring diagrams are intended only as examples of how the relay unit and RFID device may be installed. Actual installation wiring may differ. The GateKeeper is supplied with stub wiring so that the system can be bench-tested. Typically, the GateKeeper will be positioned or mounted at or near the facility reception desk.

Combinations of Relay Units There are several useful ways in which multiple relay units can be interconnected. In these illustrations, the data connections to the door reader and PC are not shown. Bi-Directional When you want to have readers both sides of the door, you need to combine the relay contacts. These wiring patterns can be used in combination with the power supply sharing wiring pattern above.
GateKeeper Status The front of the GateKeeper h4.2 makes it easy to diagnose whether there is a problem, and the nature of any such problems. What Do the Lights Mean? Light Activity Indicates Ser1 (or Act1) Flickering/Off Flickers when the GateKeeper is able to talk to...
Troubleshooting Test the relay wiring to the magnet lock Once you have finished the wiring, you should test if the wiring is correct and working by using a paperclip. Do this before plugging the connector into the GateKeeper socket. Find a paperclip, straighten it and then bend it as depicted below. Connect the paperclip into the two holes where the two wires connect to the magnet lock.
Page 17
To demonstrate, if the lock mechanism is unengaged (unlocked) before you connect in the paperclip, it should be engaged (locked) after you connect the paperclip. If the lock is engaged (locked) before you plug in the paperclip, it should become unengaged (unlocked) after the paperclip is connected.
