✦ NOTE: DO NOT APPLY POWER UNTIL THE INSTALLATION IS
COMPLETE.TURN MASTER POWER SWITCH OFF BEFORE
WIRING.	POWER
1. Route two wires between the AE-1000 and the power transformer.
	TERMINALS
• For power wire runs up to 100 feet, use 18 AWG, THHN 600-volt
	DC	DC	AC2	AC1	EARTH
insulated wire.
• For power wire runs up to 200 feet, use 16 AWG, THHN 600-volt					GROUND
insulated wire.
					STUD
2. Connect the wires to the transformer. Connect the other end of the
wires to the AE-1000 AC1 & AC2 terminals.
Backup Battery / Uninterruptable Power Supply					EARTH
Use of battery backup is optional. It will allow the AE-1000 to operate for
					GROUND
short periods of time without AC power. The door or gate access device
					STAKE
must use some type of battery backup of its own for the entire system to	12 VOLT
be functional.	BATTERY
A backup battery will not fi t into the AE-1000 case. Protect the backup	NOTE: THE OPTIONAL
battery inside a rain-tight NEMA enclosure suitable for the installation.
	BACKUP BATTERY
✦ NOTE: A backup battery is not required to maintain the AE-1000
	WILL REQUIRE AN
clock/calendar and programming memory during power outages.
	EXTERNAL CHARGER
1. Route two wires between the AE-1000 and the backup battery.
2. Connect the Battery positive to the AE-1000 DC+ terminal and the					16 VAC
negative to the DC- terminal.
					35 VA
✦ NOTE: The AE-1000 does not supply battery charging current.
					TRANSFORMER
An external battery charger will be required to maintain the battery.
Earth Ground
For the best ground, use size 12 gauge solid wire or larger to connect the
to an 8-foot copper ground rod. Locate the ground rod next to the Power
and Telephone company rods and bond the rods together with a new
clamp. Do not disturb the clamps installed by the Power or Telephone
Company. Alternately, connect to a metallic cold water pipe for the earth
ground.
1. Connect the wire from the earth ground to the AE-1000’s EARTH
GROUND STUD.
RS-232 Port	AE-1000
A modular connector is provided for the bi-directional 38.4K baud
	RS-232 PORT
RS-232 port. The AE-1000’s RS-232 port connects to a personal
computer’s COM port. System programming can be performed locally
with a computer connected to the RS-232 port.
