3.6 Configuration information
Wiring an emerald terminal with a Request to Exit switch is the most basic wiring configuration.
It is not recommended for high security installations as the emerald is installed on the
unsecure side of the door.
Power connections
The 12V power connections on J18 connect to the same common circuitry and are used to
provide power to the emerald terminal, as well as to output power to door furniture.
Input configuration
The table below illustrates the configuration and operation of the inputs on the terminal when
configured with a Request to Exit switch.
Note
Inputs are not for use as part of a burglar alarm system.
Inputs not in use
The door position input 0 must be shorted out between the IP0 and GND pins with wire when
not in use, to prevent alarms being generated on the system.
Ethernet cable ferrite
The ferrite must be attached to the Ethernet cable close to the exit point from the emerald
terminal. The cable should be looped through the ferrite once.
Input number Input function Default input trigger state change
0 Door position short => open
1 Lock position short => open
2 Request to exit switch open => momentary short => open
3 Spare/Interlock short => open
