Extension Amc2-16Ioe - Bosch APC-AMC2-4R4CF Installation Manual

14 en | Introduction
Notice!
The RS-485 interface can be used either for the host connection or to connect extension
boards. If extension boards are used then the host connection must be by ethernet.
The AMC2-4R4 possesses six analog inputs and six relay outputs. It receives state information
about the entrance via the inputs and transmits door control signals and/or notifications to
external monitoring systems via the outputs. If the six inputs and six outputs of the AMC2-4R4
are not sufficient then up to 3 extensions (AMC2-8IOE, AMC2-16IOE or AMC2-16IE) with 8 or
16 inputs and outputs respectively can be connected.
Notice!
This controller is currently a project version.
The allocation of the signals is determined by "door models" which, when selected, reserve
the necessary reader connections and contacts for their usage. This default allocation can be
overriden and adapted to circumstances using the parameterization tools in the access control
system, where any free contact can have a signal allocated.
The AMC2-4R4 can communicate upstream to the host computer using RS-485 multi‑dropped,
RS-232 or 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet. It has eight analog input devices and eight relay outputs.
With its analog input devices, the AMC2-4R4 verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open.
The relay outputs can be used to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or activate the
burglar alarm system if an intrusion or system alert is detected. If the eight inputs and eight
outputs on board are not enough to configure the system, up to three additional extensions
(AMC2-8IOE, AMC2-16IE, or AMC2-16IOE) can be connected. The extensions offer 8 or 16
additional inputs and outputs.
The setup procedure for an AMC2-4R4 is made very simple and fast by the use of door
templates. Once selected, all the inputs and outputs are predefined. These settings can be
changed to choose every free contact of the controller or a connected extension.
