  • Page 22 The power input end of the access controller is connected with a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the chassis, forming the chassis ground (also known as PGND). This chassis ground must be securely grounded so that induced and leaked electricity can be safely discharged to the ground, enhancing the anti-EMS capability of the access controller.
  • Page 23 WARNING! The ground wire of the access controller should be connected to the grounding system in the equipment room. The fire main and lightning rod of a building are not good grounding options. When a grounding strip is unavailable If earth is available nearby and allows a grounding body to be buried, hammer an angle steel or steel pipe longer than 0.5 m (1.64 ft) into the earth.
