Installation Guide
● The four RELAY LEDs indicate when the relays are activated
● The STATUS LED in the center of the ACU indicates that the ACU has been configured with
firmware. It will flash green when Identify is pressed in the Control Center.
● The four READER POWER LEDs indicate that the ACU has output power enabled per reader
READER LEDS
The Openpath Smart Reader’s LEDs indicate the following:
● If the center dot is solid white, then the door is locked
● If the outer ring is solid white, then the door is unlocked
● If the center dot quickly switches between multiple colors and outer ring quickly spins once,
the reader has just received power
● If all lights are off, the reader is not connected to power (check to see if the power wires are
swapped)
● If the center dot is flashing red, the reader is connected to power but cannot communicate with
the ACU (check to see if the +B [blue] and -A [violet] lines are swapped)
● If the center dot is solid blue, the reader is connected to power and can communicate with the
ACU, but has not been configured as an entry in the Control Center
● If the center dot is solid green, and the outer ring lights up and spins, that means the reader has
been Identified via the Control Center
● If the center dot is solid purple and the outer ring is solid white, the reader is possibly not
receiving enough voltage or current, potentially due to a break in wiring – try connecting the
reader directly to the ACU, bypassing any wire runs
● If the center dot is solid pink and the outer ring is solid white, check that +12V IN (orange)
hasn’t been swapped with +B (blue) or -A (violet)
RESETTING THE ACU
Soft Reset: To soft reset the ACU, disconnect power from the ACU, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect
the power.
WARNING: Only hard reset the ACU if absolutely necessary and if instructed by Openpath. This
will clear all of the data off of the ACU and will require reprovisioning, which requires having a
computer or mobile phone on the same network as the ACU.
Hard Reset: To hard reset the ACU, disconnect power from the ACU, hold down the ADMIN
BUTTON, reconnect power to the ACU, wait 20 seconds while still holding the button down, then
release the button. Wait 10 minutes before re-provisioning the ACU following the PROVISIONING
THE ACU steps below.
