R8
Power Relay Module
Overview
1 FlexIO Connectors – These connectors pass the
FAI signal to the R8 board and pass the FlexIO buss
on to other accessory boards in the system.
2 B1, B2, and BR Connectors – These connectors are the
voltage inputs for the R8 board. BR is the DC Common
buss in the system. B1 is the positive voltage input
for the first power supply. In dual voltage systems,
B2 is the input for the second power supply.
3 Zone Inputs (IN1 – IN8) – These are the zone
input terminal strips. These terminal strips are
removable and accept wire sizes from AWG 14
– AWG 22. The terminals are labeled on the PC
board near the terminal strip. See page 12.
When using a normally open relay
contact input, the contact is connected
across the IN and GND terminals.
When using an open collector (transistor) input,
the open collector it connected to the IN terminal.
Note that the input source must be common
grounded with the R8 board’s power source.
4 Voltage Selection Jumpers (YELLOW) – These jumpers
select the power input to be used for each output.
For single voltage systems, this jumper should stay in
the B1 position. This jumper should be removed on
any zones where a dry contact output is needed.
5 Relay State LEDs (RED) – These LEDs indicate the state
of the output relay. The LED will be lit when the relay is
active and extinguished when the relay is not active.
6 Output Voltage LEDs (Dual Color – BLUE/GREEN)
These LEDs indicate the voltage of the zone’s output.
BLUE The output is set to 24 V
GREEN The output is set to 12 V
OFF Fuse or dry contact output selected
7 Zone Outputs (01 – 08) – These are the zone output
terminal strips. These terminal strips are removable
and accept wire sizes from AWG 14 – AWG 22. The
terminals are labeled on the PC board near the terminal
strip. See the Output Wiring section for more information.
C, NC, and NO are the relay output. Details next page.
8 Dry Output Selection (BLACK) – When a dry contact
output is needed, this jumper must be removed
in addition to the yellow jumper for the zone. The
output diodes must also be cut for the zone.
9 Output Fuses (F1 F8) – These are the fuses for
each zone output. Fuse numbers correspond
with the zone number (e.g. F1 is the fuse for
OUTPUT1). Fuses are not in the circuit when the
zone is being used as a relay contact output.
10 FAI LED (RED) – These LED indicates that the R8
has received an FAI signal from the Securitron AQL
power supply through the FlexIO connector. When
lit, any zones selected to respond to FAI will unlock.
11 FAI Selection Switches (SW1) – These switches
select FAI for each output. Switch 1 is for zone 1,
switch 2 for zone 2, etc. When the switch is ON,
the zone will unlock when an FAI is received.
NOTE When a dry contact
output is needed, the
Yellow and Black jumpers
must be removed and the
output diodes must be cut
CAUTION When
powering magnetic loads
such as maglocks, door
strikes, solenoids, etc,
each of these loads must
have a reverse protection
diode either built-in or
external to the device.
