3.3.1.2 Power Supplies<br />
Power usage is given in the datasheet, chapter 4.1. Make sure that<br />
the supply and battery backup is sufficient is for the required power<br />
and backup time. Take into ac<strong>co</strong>unt the use of door strikes as well.<br />
3.3.1.3 Orbit outputs<br />
The Orbit has various solid-state relays that can be used to switch a<br />
door strike (or other equipment).<br />
3.3.1.4 Inputs<br />
These relays are only suitable for D.C. and maximum 28 Volt at 1<br />
Ampere (not inductive).<br />
One side of the relays is grounded: each relay switches one <strong>co</strong>ntact<br />
to ground (see drawing 76000160): all outputs, OUT0 and OUT1 of<br />
each reader, have a <strong>co</strong>mmon, ground.<br />
These relays are not suitable for all possible situations. If, for example,<br />
an electrically isolated switch is required, an additional mechanical<br />
relay is needed.<br />
Note This outputs are normally open (N.O.) when the power is removed<br />
from <strong>Astro</strong>. For high security situations where N.C. <strong>co</strong>ntacts<br />
are used, it is necessary to use an additional mechanical<br />
relay.<br />
Inputs (for door <strong>co</strong>ntacts, loops, etc.) are shown in the drawing<br />
76000160.<br />
• One side of all inputs is grounded.<br />
• The other side of the input must be shorted to ground in order to<br />
activate the input.<br />
Normal switches can be used with these inputs without any problems.<br />
Note Before <strong>co</strong>nnecting other equipment to <strong>Astro</strong>, <strong>co</strong>nsult the specifications<br />
of the equipment to prevent <strong>co</strong>nflicts and possible<br />
damage.<br />
3.3.1.5 PC Hardware and Software<br />
<strong>Astro</strong> is designed to function with Microsoft Internet Explorer, version<br />
6.0 or later. If an earlier version is used, some screens may not function<br />
properly. The Internet Explorer on the <strong>Astro</strong> CD is suitable for<br />
<strong>Astro</strong>.<br />
3.3.2 Mechanical Installation<br />
There are no specific requirements for the PC as the browser application<br />
is quite simple. No additional software need be installed on<br />
the PC.<br />
3.3.2.1 Readers and Locks<br />
Determine where the readers are to be mounted and obtain the necessary<br />
mounting materials.<br />
