Hardware Installation Guidelines

1 Introduction

Important: In order to use the LNL-3300-ACUXL Intelligent System Controller (ISC) and
the LNL-2240-RS4 ISC, the Migration Controllers (CASI) license bit must be
enabled.

The Lenel ACU Series controllers (LNL-3300-ACUXL and LNL-2240-RS4) are replacements for the
legacy ACUXL, ACURS2, ACURS4, ACURT2, and ACURT4 circuit boards for use in the Lenel hardware
platform. The ACU Series controllers are intended to be installed in existing ACU enclosures.
ACU controllers provide distributed processing for the interface of access control readers, keypads, alarm
inputs, and outputs back to the OnGuard system computer. Distributed processing from the CPU board
within the ACU enclosure allows the controllers to operate independently of the OnGuard system computer
with the majority of access control and alarm monitoring decisions made locally at the controller. (For more
information, refer to the Hardware Installation Guide.)
The Lenel ACU Series provides instant response for door control and alarm sensing in the field, while
leaving the OnGuard system computer with more processing power for quickly executing daily operations
such as alarm response, database updates and reporting.
In addition, the Lenel ACU Series incorporates flash memory technology that provides the ability to receive
its operating system and application remotely from the host system over the already established
communications path. Both the modular design and the flash memory technology of the Lenel ACU Series
provide a simple migration path when considering future host system upgrades.
The ACU replacement controllers provide connections to all of the legacy downstream devices, as follows:
• Legacy reader processing boards:
- RRE Surface Mount Remote Reader Electronics Module
- RRE-U Remote Reader Electronics Module
- RRE2 Surface Mount Remote Reader Electronics 2 Module
- RRE4 Surface Mount Remote Reader Electronics 4 Module
- RRE2/4-U Remote Reader Electronics Module
- IKE Keypad Reader
• Legacy alarm modules:
- RIM Surface Mount Remote Input Module
- RIM-U Remote Input Module
- RRM Surface Mount Remote Relay Module
- RRM-U Remote Relay Module
Alternatively, the ACU controllers allow you to replace the legacy downstream devices with standard Lenel
downstream devices.

Note: ACU legacy downstream devices cannot be mixed with Lenel downstream devices on the
same port.

2.1 Installation Outline

The following is a basic outline for installing and setting up the Lenel ACU Series system. Some steps may
have been done depending on what was ordered. Some steps are optional, depending on the additional
equipment to be used. These steps are noted.

Important: Do not apply power to any component until the installation is complete. Damage
to the components may occur if power is incorrectly applied.

Note: The LNL-3300-ACUXL Intelligent System Controller is a replacement for the ACUXL circuit
board. The LNL-2240-RS4 Intelligent Controller is a replacement for the ACURS2, ACURS4,
ACURT2, and ACURT4 circuit boards.

1. Determine the cable clamps needed and obtain them before starting the installation.
During the installation, remember to:
• Label all connections/cables for ease of maintenance.
• Leave enough slack in the wiring so the cables can be “dressed”. This minimizes interference
during board removal or replacement.
2. Wire up the ACU controller. Be sure to configure and verify the switch settings. For more information,
refer to the following sections:
- LNL-3300-ACUXL: Configuration on page 50
- LNL-2240-RS4: RS-485 Communication Wiring - TB8 on page 65
3. If using networked controllers, verify that your network is up and running.
4. Install the reader board(s) into the enclosure and wire the readers to the controller. Be sure to configure
and verify the switch settings, jumpers, and/or resistor packs. Refer to the reader (RRE, RRE2, RRE4,
IKE and the RRE-U, RRE2-U and RRE4-U) user guides and Quick Reference sheets provided at the
Partner Center web site. For more information, refer to Install Legacy Downstream Devices on page 12.
5. If using digital inputs, insert the RIM into the enclosure and wire the inputs to the controller. Be sure to
configure and verify the switch settings. Refer to the Surface Mount Remote Input Module (RIM) user
guide or the Remote Input Module RIM-U Quick Reference provided at the Partner Center web site. For
more information, refer to Install Legacy Downstream Devices on page 12.
6. If using digital outputs, insert either the RRM into the enclosure and wire the outputs to the controller.
Be sure to configure and verify the switch settings. Refer to Surface Mount Remote Relay Module
(RRM) user guide and the Remote Relay Module RRM-U Quick Reference provided at the Partner
Center web site. For more information, refer to Install Legacy Downstream Devices on page 12.
7. Configure the controller using the Integrated Configuration Tool (ICT). For more information, refer to
the following sections:
- LNL-3300-ACUXL: Web Configuration on page 50
- LNL-2240-RS4: Web Configuration on page 71
8. If connecting standard Lenel downstream devices, port 2 & 3 of the LNL-3300-ACUXL and port 2 of
the LNL-2240-RS4 will be used. Please refer to the Hardware Installation Guide for the wiring details.

ACU Series Hardware Installation Guide revision 11 — 13


Hardware Installation Guidelines

2.2 General Installation Rules

Important: This equipment is to be installed, maintained and serviced by authorized service


persons, only.

The authorized installation contractor should comply with the following rules:
• Neatly label cables at both ends.
(For example, labels should include: controller address number/device or reader number)
• Use individually shielded pairs of cables only. All wiring must comply with local, state, and federal
electrical codes and fire codes.
• Obey all national, state, and local electrical and safety codes.
• Obtain any required permits and/or inspections. Contact the local fire marshal for assistance if
necessary.
• Safety of customer personnel is the primary consideration of the installation.
• Neatly dress and tie or lace all wiring in a professional manner.
• Gather together and tape all unused conductors in multiple conductor cables.
• Shield all cabling and terminate properly.

Notes: This is an FCC Class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
Circuit board components are vulnerable to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can
cause immediate or subtle damage to sensitive electronic parts. An electrostatic charge can
build up on the human body and then discharge when you touch a board. A discharge can be
produced when walking across a carpet and touching a board, for example. Before handling
any board, make sure you dissipate your body’s charge by touching ground. This discharges
any static electricity build-up.

2.3 Signal Transmission

• Where practical, keep cables well separated from each other. Separate power cables from signal cables.
• Keep the break-out at the ends of signal cables as short as possible.
• Ground all shield drain wire(s) at the ACU controller using the grounding studs provided outside the
cabinet enclosure.
• For communication cables between controllers, ground shield to the upstream controller only.

Note: Do not ground both cable ends.

INTELLIGENT
CONTROLLERS
Using a Web Browser to Configure Lenel Intelligent Controllers

Controller Web Page Configuration

Instead of using DIP switches or jumpers to define communication and addressing, the following controllers
can be configured through the web interface:
• LNL-3300-ACUXL, LNL-2240-RS4

4 Using a Web Browser to Configure Lenel Intelligent


Controllers

The web browser interface is a secure connection that is used to configure the Lenel intelligent controllers
by providing the ability to:
• Select the connection method of the Host computer to the controller
• Configure the IP address (Host Communication address or DHCP name)
• Create and manage user logins
• Configure Auto-save settings
• Reload or Reset settings back to default
• Load Certificates
• Configure Central Station
• View Status
• View device information
• Restore settings to factory default.

4.1 Secure Access to Controller Web Page Configuration

Upon installation, the user accounts to the web configuration page should be created with secure passwords
and the DIP switches set in the off position for the normal operating mode. The intelligent controllers are
shipped from the factory with a default login account, which is enabled when DIP 1 is moved from OFF to
ON. The default login user name and password will be available for five minutes once enabled. Therefore, it
is important that at least one user account is defined, and the DIP switches are set to OFF before an
intelligent controller is commissioned. It is also highly recommended not to configure the controller with an
IP address that is accessible from the public Internet.
To further enhance network security, options are available to disable SNMP, Zeroconf discovery, as well as
the web configuration module itself. For more information, refer to Configure Other Settings on page 34.
Additionally, data encryption can be enabled over the host communication port. For more information, refer
to Configure the Host Communication Settings on page 29.

ACU Series Hardware Installation Guide revision 11 — 25


Controller Web Page Configuration

4.1.1 Default User

There is one pre-defined user always available by turning DIP switch SW1 ON after power up. When
logging in for the first time, since no other users are defined yet, the default user name and password are
required for configuring this board.

If the user name and password for the controller are unknown, configure the DIP switches as follows:

1 2 3 4 Definition
OFF OFF OFF OFF Normal operating mode.
ON X X X After initialization, enable default User Name (admin) and Password
(password). The switch is read on the fly, no need to re-boot. This
switch is also used to re-enable the Web Server. For more information,
refer to Configure Other Settings on page 34.
OFF ON X OFF Use factory default communication parameters.
(Address: 192.168.0.251 Port: 3001)
ON ON X OFF Use Lenel default communication parameters. Refer to the Bulk Erase
section in an Intelligent Controller chapter.
ON ON X OFF Bulk Erase prompt mode at power up. Refer to the Bulk Erase section
in an Intelligent Controller chapter.
X X ON X Disables the TLS secure link. The switch is read when logging on only.

The DIP switches configure the operating mode of the processor. DIP switches are read on power-up except
where noted. Press switch S2 to reset the board.

Notes: The default username (admin) & password (password) will work for 5 minutes after switch 1 is
set to ON. Before disabling the default username & password, ensure at least one user has been
created and then set Switch 1 to off.
After configuring ports and users, be sure to turn SW1 off to enable the updated settings.

4.2 Open the Configuration Web Page and Log In

The Configuration Web Page can be launched from within System Administration (if an IP address or host
name is specified) or by using a browser to access the programmed IP address. Depending on your proxy
settings, you may have to allow this web page. (For more information, consult your browser’s online help or
system administrator for assistance.)

1. In System Administration in the Access Panels folder, click the Configuration Web Page button or
open a browser and navigate to the device using the IP address.

Note: All boards have a static certificate that reflects a static IP address. This causes a warning to
appear initially when trying to log in that states a problem with this website's security
certificate. Although it is not recommended, proceed to the website.

2. Click the link to go to the login page.

LNL-3300-ACUXL Intelligent System Controller

5 Overview of the LNL-3300-ACUXL

5.1 The LNL-3300-ACUXL Board

This installation guide is intended for use by technicians who will be installing and maintaining the
Intelligent System Controller.
The LNL-3300-ACUXL is a replacement for the ACUXL circuit board when converting to the Lenel
hardware platform. This board is intended to be installed in existing ACU enclosures. This Intelligent
System Controller provides the real time processing for the I/O interfaces connected to it. The database for
the subsystem configuration and card holders are stored in flash memory. The event log buffer is stored in
battery-backed memory. Configuration data and event/status reports are communicated to the host via on-
board 10BaseT/100BaseTX Ethernet port or port 1.
The on-board 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet port is the primary communication connection to the host. An
alternate host connection is possible via an optional 10Base-T/100Base-TX daughter board (Lantronix
Micro125 interface, p/n MO11AA003-01R or equivalent).
Two (2) RS-485 (4-wire) ports are provided for communication to the downstream I/O devices. Twelve
Form-C relay outputs may be used for strike control or alarm signaling. The relay contacts are rated at 2 A
@ 30 VDC, dry contact configuration. Twelve general purpose zone inputs are provided to monitor
unsupervised or supervised circuits.
The LNL-3300-ACUXL requires 18.5 to 28 VDC for input power.

7.3 Input Circuit Wiring

Zone input circuits can be configured as unsupervised or supervised. When unsupervised, reporting consists
of only the open or closed states. When configured as supervised, the zone input circuit will report not only
open and closed, but also open line fault, shorted line fault, grounded*, and foreign voltage*. A supervised
input circuit requires two resistors be added to the circuit to facilitate proper reporting. The standard
supervised circuit requires 1k Ohm, 1% resistors and should be located as close to the sensor as possible.
Custom end of line (EOL) resistances may be configured via the host software.
* Grounded and foreign voltage states are not a requirement of UL 294 and therefore not verified by UL.

The relay contacts are rated at 2 A @ 30 VDC, dry contact configuration. Each relay has a Common pole
(C), a Normally Open pole (NO) and a Normally Closed pole (NC). When you are controlling the delivery
of power to the door strike, the Normally Open and Common poles are used. When momentarily removing
power to unlock the door, as with a mag lock, the Normally Closed and Common poles are used. Check with
local building codes for proper egress door installation.

ACU Series Hardware Installation Guide revision 11 — 47


LNL-3300-ACUXL Intelligent System Controller

Door lock mechanisms can generate feedback to the relay circuit that can cause damage and premature
failure of the relay. For this reason, it is recommended that either a diode or MOV (metal oxide varistor) be
used to protect the relay. Wire should be of sufficient gauge to avoid voltage loss.

10 Other Functions

10.1 Memory and Real Time Clock Backup Battery

The static RAM and the real time clock are backed up by a lithium battery when input power is removed.
This battery should be replaced annually. If data in the static RAM is determined to be corrupt after power
up, all data, including flash memory, is considered invalid and is erased All configuration data must be re-
downloaded. Remove the insulator from the battery holder after installation. Battery type: BR2325,
BR2330, or CR2330.

10.2 Bulk Erase Function

Use the bulk erase function to:


- Erase all configuration and cardholder database (sanitize board).
- Update OEM default parameters after OEM code has been changed.
- Recover from database corruption causing the LNL-3300-ACUXL to continuously reboot.
If clearing the memory does not correct the initialization problem, contact LenelS2 OnGuard Technical
Support.
Complete the following steps to use the bulk erase function.

ACU Series Hardware Installation Guide revision 11 — 51


LNL-3300-ACUXL Intelligent System Controller

Note: Do not remove power when performing this procedure.

1. Set the S1 DIP switches as follows:


• 1 and 2 = ON
• 3 and 4 = off
2. Apply power to the LNL-3300-ACUXL board.
3. Watch for LEDs 1 and 2, and 3 and 4 to alternately flash at a 0.5 second rate.
4. Within 10 seconds of powering up, change switches 1 or 2 to OFF. If these switches are not changed, the
LNL-3300-ACUXL will power up using the OEM default communication parameters.
5. LED 2 flashes to indicate that the configuration memory is being erased.
6. Full memory erase takes approximately 60 seconds.
7. When complete, only LEDs 1 and 4 flash for 8 seconds.
8. The LNL-3300-ACUXL reboots 8 seconds after LEDs 1 and 4 stop flashing (no LEDs are on during
this time).

11 Status LEDs

• Power-up: All LEDs OFF.


• Initialization:
- LEDs 1-6 are turned ON, and then off in sequence.
- LEDs 1, 3, & 4 are turned ON for approximately 4 seconds after the hardware initialization has
completed.
- The application code initializes. The amount of time the application takes to initialize depends on
the size of the database, about 3 seconds without a card database. Each 10,000 cards will add about
3 seconds to the application initialization.
- When LEDs 1 through 4 flash at the same time, data is being read from or written to flash memory.

Note: Do not cycle power while data is written to, or read from, the flash memory.

The following table describes the purpose of each LED on the ISC board.

12 IT Security

When installing the LNL-3300-ACUXL, it is important to ensure that the installation is performed in a
secure manner.
Upon installation, the user accounts to the Web Configuration Page should be created with secure
passwords, and all DIP switches are in the off position for the normal operating mode.
The LNL-3300-ACUXL is shipped from the factory with a default login account, which is enabled when
DIP switch 1 is moved from off to ON. The default login user name and password will be available for five
(5) minutes once enabled. Therefore, it is important that at least one (1) user account is defined, and the DIP
switches are set to off before the LNL-3300-ACUXL is commissioned. It is also highly recommended not to
configure the LNL-3300-ACUXL with an IP address that is accessible from the public Internet.
To further enhance network security, options are available to disable SNMP, Zeroconf discovery, as well as
the Web Configuration module, itself. Additionally, data encryption can also be enabled over the host
communication port.

LNL-2240-RS4 Intelligent Controller

17 Overview of the LNL-2240-RS4

This installation guide is intended for use by technicians who will be installing and maintaining the
Intelligent System Controller with Four Reader Interfaces.
The LNL-2240-RS4 is a replacement for the ACURS2, ACURS4, ACURT2, and ACURT4 circuit boards
when converting to the Lenel hardware platform. This board is intended to be installed in existing ACU
enclosures. The LNL-2240-RS4 is comprised of two sections; intelligent controller and hardware interface
(readers, door hardware, etc.). This intelligent controller provides decision making, event reporting, and
database storage. The on-board 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet port is the communication connection to the
host. The alternate host communication connection is an optional 10-BaseT/100Base-TX Ethernet port using
a Lantronix Micro125 interface daughter board, p/n MO11AA003-01R, or equivalent. This alternate host
port communication connection has not been evaluated by UL. The LNL-2240-RS4 does not support any
other communication options to the host.
The LNL-2240-RS4’s field hardware interface consists of four (4) reader ports, eight (8) relays and twelve
inputs. The reader interface supports D1/D0 or Clock/Data signaling.
The relays have Form-C contacts rated at 2 A @ 30 VDC, dry contact configuration for switching external
devices. Twelve general purpose inputs monitor unsupervised or supervised circuits. Open collector outputs
are provided to control each reader’s red and green LED and the buzzer. One 4-wire RS-485 port is provided
for communication to the downstream I/O devices.
The LNL-2240-RS4 requires 24 VAC for input power. Supports the charging of 24 Volt, 7 Ah rechargeable
sealed lead-acid battery for UPS operation.

WARNING Install jumper J7 to terminate RX.


For LNL-2240-RS4 communication to I/O bus devices: LenelS2 OnGuard Technical Support does not
recommend the use of
RS-485 termination in most installations. End-of-Line resistor termination is only required for those
installations with extremely long wiring runs (nearly 4000 feet).
However, when using 2-wire RS-485, DO NOT install both termination jumpers, J4 and J7. Only install J4
or J7 if the LNL-2240-RS4 is at the end of the communication line, otherwise do not install either jumper.

LNL-2240-RS4 Intelligent Controller

19.5 Input Circuit Wiring

Typically, these inputs, IN0, IN1 & IN2 for each of the four reader ports, are used to monitor door position,
request to exit, or alarm contacts. Input circuits can be configured as unsupervised or supervised. When
unsupervised, reporting consists of only the open or closed states. When configured as supervised, the input
circuit will report not only open and closed, but also open line fault, shorted line fault, grounded*, and
foreign voltage*. A supervised input circuit requires two resistors be added to the circuit to facilitate proper
reporting. The standard supervised circuit requires 1k ohm, 1% resistors and should be located as close to
the sensor as possible. Custom end of line (EOL) resistances may be configured via the host software.
* Grounded and foreign voltage states are not a requirement of UL 294 and therefore not verified by UL.
The input circuit wiring configurations shown are supported but may not be typical.

momentarily removing power to unlock the door, as with a mag lock, the Normally Closed and Common
poles are used. Check with local building codes for proper egress door installation.
Door lock mechanisms can generate feedback to the relay circuit that can cause damage and premature
failure of the relay. For this reason, it is recommended that a diode be used to protect the relay. Wire should
be of sufficient gauge to avoid voltage loss.

LNL-2240-RS4 Intelligent Controller

24 Other Functions

24.1 Memory and Real Time Clock Backup Battery

The static RAM and the real time clock are backed up by a lithium battery when input power is removed.
This battery should be replaced annually. If data in the static RAM is determined to be corrupt after power
up, all data, including flash memory, is considered invalid and is erased All configuration data must be re-
downloaded. Remove the insulator from the battery holder after installation. Battery type: BR2325,
BR2330, or CR2330.

24.2 Bulk Erase Function

Use the bulk erase function to:


- Erase all configuration and cardholder database (sanitize board).
- Update OEM default parameters after OEM code has been changed.
- Recover from database corruption causing the LNL-2240-RS4 to continuously reboot.

Note: If clearing the memory does not correct the initialization problem, contact LenelS2 OnGuard
Technical Support.

To use the bulk erase function:

1. Set the S1 DIP switches as follows:


• 1 and 2 = ON
• 3 and 4 = OFF
2. Apply power to the LNL-2240-RS4 board.
3. Watch for LEDs 1 & 2, and 3 & 4 to alternately flash at a 0.5 second rate.
4. Within 10 seconds of powering up, change switches 1 or 2 to OFF. If these switches are not changed, the
LNL-2240-RS4 will power up using the OEM default communication parameters.
5. LED 2 flashes to indicate that the configuration memory is being erased. Full memory erase takes
approximately 60 seconds.
6. When complete, only LEDs 1 & 4 flash.
7. The LNL-2240-RS4 reboots 8 seconds after LEDs 1 & 4 stop flashing (no LEDs are on during this
time).
8. Do not remove power when performing this procedure.

Note: Install the termination jumpers ONLY on the panel at each end of the RS-485 bus. Failure to do
so will compromise the proper operation of the communication channel!

IT Security

25 IT Security

When installing the LNL-2240-RS4, it is important to ensure that it is done in a secure manner.
Upon installation, the user accounts to the web configuration page should be created with secure passwords,
and that all DIP switches are in the off position for the normal operating mode. The LNL-2240-RS4 is
shipped from the factory with a default login account, which is enabled when DIP 1 is moved from OFF to
ON. The default login user name and password will be available for five minutes once enabled. Therefore, it
is important that at least one user account is defined, and the DIP switches are set to OFF before the LNL-
2240-RS4 is commissioned. It is also highly recommended not to configure the LNL-2240-RS4 with an IP
address that is accessible from the public Internet.
To further enhance network security, options are available to disable SNMP, Zeroconf discovery, as well as
the web configuration module itself. Additionally, data encryption can also be enabled over the host
communication port.

26 CE Compliance Requirements

In order to comply with CE EN-50130-4 and EN 61000-6-4 specifications ferrite chokes must be added to
all data cables exiting the enclosure. Install ferrite choke as close to the LNL-2240-RS4 circuit board as
possible. Chose the appropriate ferrite choke to accommodate the cable diameter used:
• Fair-Rite # 0461164281: 0.25 inch diameter hole for cable
• Fair-Rite # 0461164181: 0.50 inch diameter hole for cable
