Star Coupler Feature
iSTAR eX Capacities
Battery – connector to 12 VDC, 17.2 Ah minimum capacity standby battery
PMB to ESD – battery charging connector
ESD power – UL Recognized ESD, Model SPS-6.5, supplies power to the PMB
Fuse – 10 A, 250 VAC fuse
The GCM board and the software support two ports for connecting readers and other
peripherals. Each port can control up to four readers. The PMB provides a star coupler feature
to expand the two RS485 ports into four ports with separate drivers (referred to as RM ports)
as shown in Table 1-7 on
The PMB star coupler uses a DIP Switch (S1) to route the RM ports to the RS485 ports on the
GCM.
