    1 x Hardware Manual Mounting The FORTESSA Controller and its power supply should be mounted in a secure location or on the secure side of the door. This should ideally be as close to the door as possible (Max 100m cable run) to avoid volt drops.
  • Page 7: Lock Drive

    Cable Network Two core twisted pair cable is to be used to wire the FORTESSA Network (a screened cable can be used to offer better protection). If the optional screened cable is used then the incoming and outgoing screen can be fitted to SCR on the Network terminal block.
  • Page 8: Reader

    Reader The FORTESSA Readers are connected to the FORTESSA Controller using a standard 4 core cable (alarm cable is suitable). LEDs Status The status LED next to the reset button indicates whether the board has power or not. Reader (A & B) The readers LEDs indicate whether the reader circuit is in overload (red) or if there is activity from the reader itself (green).

    FORTESSA system. The FORTESSA Reader is weather protected to IP66 and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Power The FORTESSA Reader uses 12V DC and power is taken from the positive and negative connections of the Reader terminal block on the FORTESSA Controller board.
  • Page 10: Mounting

    A normally open connection, or “push to make” connection, Request to Exit button may also be fitted to the FORTESSA Reader. The positive of the RQE should be wired in to RQE on the Door terminal block and the negative should be wired in to the negative of the Reader terminal block.
  • Page 11: Leds

    LEDs There are two bi-colour LEDs on the reader. The lower LED flashes red until a credential is present when it will stay red and hold until the proximity credential is removed. The upper LED will turn green when a valid card is presented to the reader and red when the card is invalid.

    1 x driver bit for security screws Description The FORTESSA Reader is a passive RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) proximity reader for use with the FORTESSA system. The FORTESSA Reader is weather protected to IP66 and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Mounting Drill a 6mm hole at the centre point of the mounting position for the cable.
  • Page 13: Fortessa Touch Switch

    FORTESSA Touch Switch Description The FORTESSA Touch Switch is capable of detecting near-proximity or touch. It projects a touch proximity field through the dielectric of the enclosure. The patented spread-spectrum charge-transfer technology, coupled with its ability to self-calibrate, makes this an entirely new concept.
  • Page 14: Power

    Power The FORTESSA Touch Switch uses 12V DC and power is taken from the positive and negative connections of the Reader terminal block on the FORTESSA Controller board. The supply may also be tapped from a nearby FORTESSA reader. Mounting The touch switch may be mounted using the surface box provided or for better aesthetic appearance use a flush back box.
  • Page 15: Contact

    CONTACT The relay contact of the switch provides C, NC and NO connections. The relay contacts changeover when the surface of the switch is touched. This change over is timed so that it will not hold even if the triggering object is not removed from the surface.

    The End of Line resistor should be set to Y on the jumper setting (see figure 11). Cables Two core twisted pair cable is to be used to wire the FORTESSA Network (a screened cable can be used to offer better protection). FORTESSA Controllers can be further linked together in a “daisy chain”, to a maximum of 16 on the whole network, by wiring...

  • Page 20: Fortessa Credentials

    The FORTESSA Proximity Key fob is a passive RFID proximity credential which conveniently fits on a key ring which is ideal for people who forget their cards, wallets or purses but remember their car and house keys! The FORTESSA Key Fob is for use with FORTESSA systems only.
  • Page 21 FORTESSA.net FORTESSA.net provides a 10 / 100 Base T Ethernet connection via an RJ45 socket. This makes the FORTESSA system or parts of it “IP Addressable”. The FORTESSA.net can be used by itself or in conjunction with the FORTESSA USB interface and or additional FORTESSA.net controllers.
  • Page 22  Set Server IP Address Filter (Optional) The only required setting is the IP address. Note that if the FORTESSA.net is connected to the same subnet as the Server PC; then the FORTESSA.net IP address can be set from the software. The keyboard is primarily used to set the address when the FORTESSA.net is on the other side of a router on a different subnet.
