Security Systems
Grounding and shielding the AMC (I)

The main grounding point at the AMC2 will be connected with pin 2 of the power
supply connector. It is good practice to shield all wires carrying low level signals.
The AMC enables you to set up a central ground or shielding point, simply by
setting a couple of jumpers. Set these jumpers only if ground or shield is not
connected otherwise. Setting jumper JP1 connects the internal ground of the AMC to
the ground of the RS-485 host interface. Jumper JP2 manages
the signal ground.
Settings jumper JP1: If the ground conductor and the shield are
not connected and:
no party line exists, the jumper JP1 is set (= A2)
a party line exists, the jumper JP1 is set at the first device,
only (= A2)
Settings jumper JP2:

If the ground conductor and the shield are not connected and:
no party line exists, the jumper JP2 is set (= A3)
a party line exists and signal ground is connected, the
jumper JP2 is set at the first device, only (= A3)
a party line exists and signal ground is not connected, the
jumper JP2 is set at all devices (= A3)
If the AMC is set to RS-232 mode, Jumper JP1 must be set.
Security Systems
Grounding and shielding the AMC (II)

Jumper B connects the internal ground of the AMC to the RS-485 ground of the
slave interface. Jumper B shall only be set (=B2) if the AMC powers all other
peripheral devices which are directly connected to the AMC!

Resetting the AMC

When a problem occurs, first, try to fix the problem directly. If this does not solve
the problem, resetting the AMC firmware/configuration might help:
1. Insert the provided screwdriver into the hole as shown in the figure below.
2. Push the reset button for at least three seconds.
3. The AMC will reset the firmware/configuration and reboots.
4. Now it is possible to reconfigure the AMC2 from the beginning.
With the help of the info LCD display you could check if the software version lowered afterwards.
Security Systems
Resetting the network configuration

To Reset the network configurations:
1. Reset the AMC as described before
2. Open the upper case of the AMC2 4,W as described before
3. Set all six DIL switches of the RS-485 selector to ON
4. Press the tamper switch on the upper left side of the board (if its used)
5. The AMC2 4W will now have the following network configuration:
DHCP = 0
IP = 127.0.0.1

Power supply connector

Power supply pin overview
To power up the AMC controller a 10-30 V DC

power supply should be connected to pin 1 to 3 of
the AMC power supply pin.
With the Bosch power supply also the OK signals

(pin 4 to 7) can be wired to monitor the: AC 100/240V
input signal, the Battery and DC 12-24V Output signal.

Security Systems
Input connectors
Pin overview
The AMC2 has eight analog inputs, for example,

for potential free lock mechanisms or to detect if a
lock is closed or open. It can also detect the wiring
conditions short circuit and broken and initiate an
alarm if the appropriate devices are connected.
Security Systems
Connecting the Input connectors

To monitor the status of the inputs resistor have to be used:
Scenarios and their resistor value:

Door open: Rs+Rp
Door closed: Rs
Broken wire: Rs+Rp=
Short circuit: Rs+Rp= 0
The resistor values can vary and depend on

the used lock system (wire resistance negligible).
The AMC package includes 2,2 k resistors for the
Rs and the Rp resistor.
Within the Host software the used resistor values can

be set.
Security Systems
Relay Output connector

Pin overview
To operate locks or alarm systems the AMC2

has eight form C relay outputs. Each relay output
can operate in wet mode, using the AMC2
internal 12V DC power supply for external devices
or dry mode with potential free contacts for externally
powered systems.
Security Systems
Connecting the Relay Output connectors (I)

Each relay output can operate in wet mode, using the AMC2 internal 12V DC
power supply for external devices or dry mode with potential free contacts for
externally powered systems.
You can switch from dry to wet mode by

changing the jumper setting at the back of the
AMC controller board.

Security Systems
Connecting the AMC to Host with RS-485 (II)

The following conditions apply to RS-485 Bus:
Maximum of eight AMC per RS-232 to RS-485 multiplexer connection.
A RS485 Converter converts RS-232 to RS-485 for up to1200m (4000 ft) wire
runs to AMC controllers.
RS-485 branches from bus to AMC allowed up to 100m (300 ft).

Connecting the AMC to Host with RS-485 (V)

With a DIL switch at the front of the AMC controller board the RS-485 address
can be setup. The first four DIL switches for address selection define the RS-485
address of the AMC2 4W in a RS-485 bus system. Switch 5 selects on of the two
different protocols, SDEB and BPA (according to DIN6619). Switch 6 sets the
connection to the host system to either RS-232 or RS-485.
Security Systems
Connecting the AMC to Host with RS-485 (VI)

General advice:
Although a RS485 Converter can handle up to 8 AMCs there could be
operational problems when 8 AMC are serial connected and there is a lot of
data traffic between AMCs and Host. This problems are related to the COM
port of the PC which can not handle the data quantity between Host and
AMCs.
For installations where the data traffic (many cardholder/events) is intense

please limit the maximum AMCs per Converter (COM-port) to 4 ! For smaller
installations the quantity maybe 8 AMCs connected per Port!
Security Systems
Connecting the AMC to Host via ethernet

Pin overview
Use either a CAT5 crossover cable to

connect the AMC2 directly to a
computers network interface or a
standard CAT5 patch cable to connect
the AMC2 to a network hub or network
switch.
The AMC2 offers an additional 10/100 Mbit/s

Ethernet auto sensing interface to connect to a
local area network or host computer.
Its recommended to set DIL switch 1 to ON (= delivery status)

automatically.
When pressing the upgrade button the upgrade window will appear where
you can browse for the new firmware (*.DAT) file, after selection press Upgrade >

Tamper Contact connector

Pin overview
To protect against unauthorized access and prevent the AMC2 from tampering
with sensitive data, the AMC2 offers an additional
interface to connect external tamper contacts. This
interface is a potential-free 2-pin pluggable screw
connector marked with a T.
If not using the tamper contact, short-circuit the
