Paradox Imperial ACM24D Manual

ACM24D: 2 Door, 4 Reader Access Control Module
Description
The ACM24D is an access controller designed to work
within the Imperial system. It is capable of monitoring two
doors and up to 4 readers connected on a simple 4-wire
reader bus. The ACM24D was designed to be a complete
stand-alone module providing uninterrupted operation
should the rest of the system fail. The module can store and
buffer up to 1,000 access events. The Imperial system's
1000 cards, 256 schedules and 256 access levels are also
stored internally. The ACM24D provides ultra fast response
time for access operations and is fully firmware upgradeable
via its communication bus. In fact, other than programming
and reporting events to the Imperial system, the ACM24D is
a completely stand-alone module.
With its DIN rail design, the module requires very little
space, and is fast and easy to install. With its built-in power
supply and battery backup, the ACM24D provides truly
reliable and fail-proof access control management.
