ACM8E
Multi-Output Access Power Controllers
Rev. DSACM8E_11052012
ACM8E converts one (1) 12 to 24 volt AC or DC input into eight (8) independently
controlled fused protected outputs. These power outputs can be converted to dry form
“C” contacts. Outputs are activated by an open collector sink or normally open (NO)
dry trigger input from an Access Control System, Card Reader, Keypad, Push Button,
PIR, etc. This unit will route power to a variety of access control hardware devices
including Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders, etc. Outputs will
operate in both Fail-Safe and/or Fail-Secure modes.
This unit is designed to be powered by one common power source which will provide
power for both the board operation and locking devices, or two (2) totally independent
power sources, one (1) providing power for board operation and the other for lock /
accessory power. The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring,
or may be used to trigger other auxiliary devices. The fire alarm disconnect feature is
individually selectable for any or all of the eight (8) outputs

(setting not required), (0.6 amp @ 12volt,
0.3 amp @ 24 volt current consumption with all
relays energized).
• Power supply input options:
a) One (1) common power input
(board and lock power).
b) Two (2) isolated power inputs (one (1) for
board power and one (1) for lock/accessory power).
• Eight (8) Access Control System trigger inputs:
a) Eight (8) normally open (NO) inputs.
b) Eight (8) open collector sink inputs.
c) Any combination of the above.
Output:
• Eight (8) independently controlled outputs:
a) Eight (8) Fail-Safe and/or Fail-Secure
power outputs.
b) Eight (8) dry form “C” 5 amp rated relay outputs
c) Any combination of the above
• Eight (8) auxiliary power outputs (unswitched).
• Output ratings:
- Fuses are rated 3.5 amp each.
• Main fuse is rated at 10 amp.
Note: Total output current is determined by the power
supply, not to exceed a maximum of 10 amp total.
Features:
• Fire Alarm disconnect (latching or non-latching) is
individually selectable for any or all of the
eight (8) outputs.
Fire Alarm disconnect input options:
a) Normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC)
dry contact input.
b) Polarity reversal input from FACP
signaling circuit.
• FACP output relay (form “C” contact rated @ 1 amp
28VDC not evaluated by UL).
• Removable terminal blocks facilitate ease
of installation.
Visual Indicators:
