Connect Power

⚠️ WARNING: To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:

• Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding.
• To AVOID damaging gas, power or other underground utility lines, contact underground utility locating companies BEFORE digging.
• ALL electrical connections MUST be made by a qualified individual.
• ALL power and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduit.
• ANY maintenance to the CAPAC or in the area near the CAPAC MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.
• CAPAC MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical codes. ℹ️ NOTE: The CAPAC should be on a separate fused line of adequate capacity.

Safety Guidelines:

• All power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit and well protected. The location of the power disconnect should be visible and clearly labeled.
• To protect against fire and electrocution:
• Disconnect power BEFORE installing or servicing CAPAC.
• NEVER connect a keypad/reader or lock to doors without first consulting the applicable fire code.
• You MUST consult with, and get approval from, local fire officials BEFORE installing locks or devices on ANY doors that may be fire exits.
• Use of egress push buttons may not be legal. Single action exits may be required.
• ALWAYS obtain proper permits and approvals in writing BEFORE installing equipment.

ℹ️ NOTE: In UL installations the CAPAC shall be powered from the power limited output of a UL 294 Listed power supply, a UL 603 Listed power supply, a UL 294 Listed access control unit or a UL 325 gate operator.

? CAUTION:

• ? DO NOT connect the power supply to a switched outlet or otherwise controlled AC outlet.
• ? DO NOT connect the power supply to the 120 Vac outlet until ALL wiring is completed.

Additional ports include POWER and ETHERNET.

A "Terminal Block Power 12-24VDC" is shown connecting to the POWER terminals.

Gate Access Wiring

? CAUTION: Not responsible for conflicts between the information listed in the wiring diagram and the requirements of your local building codes. The information is for suggested use ONLY. Check your local codes BEFORE installation.

Primary Relay for Gate Operator:

Connect the Primary Relay terminals (Normally Open, Common, Normally Closed) to the Gate Operator. An "EXIT" connection is also indicated.

Refer to the Gate Operator manual for specific wiring details.

ℹ️ NOTE: For UL installations, only a UL 325 Listed Gate Operator may be connected to relay output 1 or 2.

Auxiliary Relay Configuration:

The Auxiliary Relay can be configured for:

• LIGHT: Connected via a Low Voltage Power Supply and Isolation Relay to LOAD LINE and NEUTRAL.
• ALARM BYPASS: Uses Common and Normally Open terminals.

Auxiliary Relay for Maglock:

• For AC Power: Requires a Siemens S10K30MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) or equivalent. Connect to NORMALLY CLOSED and COMMON terminals. Use 18-22 AWG wire.
• For DC Power: Requires a 1N4005 diode or equivalent. Connect to NORMALLY CLOSED and COMMON terminals. Use 18-22 AWG wire.

A MAGLOCK device connects to these terminals.

Power for Maglock: (Not Provided) ? DO NOT use the power supply for the controller.

Status Monitoring:

A STATUS indicator is shown, connected to an EOL (End of Line) Resistor (1k ohm).

The GATE OPERATOR can connect to the Aux Closed Limit switch (refer to gate operator manual).

Door Access Wiring

⚠️ WARNING: ? DO NOT INSTALL THE SYSTEM IN THE FAIL SECURE MODE UNLESS PERMITTED BY THE LOCAL AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION. Doing so may cause interference with the operation of panic hardware.

? CAUTION: Not responsible for conflicts between the information listed in the wiring diagram and the requirements of your local building codes. The information is for suggested use ONLY. Check your local codes BEFORE installation.

Primary Relay for Door Strike or Maglock:

• DOOR STRIKE:
  • For AC Power: Install a Siemens S10K30MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) or equivalent. Power for Door Strike (Not Provided). Use 18-22 AWG wire. Connect to COMMON and NORMALLY OPEN terminals.
  • For DC Power: Install a 1N4005 diode or equivalent. Use 18-22 AWG wire. Connect to COMMON and NORMALLY OPEN terminals.
• MAGLOCK:
  • For AC Power: Install a Siemens S10K30MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) or equivalent. Use 18-22 AWG wire. Connect to COMMON and NORMALLY CLOSED terminals.
  • For DC Power: Install a 1N4005 diode or equivalent. Use 18-22 AWG wire. Connect to COMMON and NORMALLY CLOSED terminals.

Power for Maglock (Not Provided) ? DO NOT use the power supply for the controller.

ℹ️ NOTE: For UL installations, only UL 294 Listed electric door strikes or UL 294 Listed Maglocks may be connected to relay output 1 or 2.

Supervised (Door Status) Connections:

These connections allow for monitoring of door status:

• DOOR SENSOR (NON-SUPERVISED) OR DOOR SENSOR (SUPERVISED): Connect to the appropriate terminals.
• An EOL (End of Line) Resistor (1k ohm) is used for supervised configurations.

This section appears twice, labeled "SUPERVISED (DOOR STATUS) 1" and "SUPERVISED (DOOR STATUS) 2", indicating support for multiple door sensors.

Auxiliary Relay:

The Auxiliary Relay follows the same wiring schedule as the Primary Relay. It can be configured for LIGHT (via Low Voltage Power Supply, Isolation Relay, LOAD LINE, NEUTRAL) or ALARM BYPASS (COMMON, NORMALLY OPEN).

Wiegand Output

ℹ️ NOTE: Disconnect power BEFORE making electrical connections. The CAPAC will send the pre-assigned credential, configured via myQ Community, to the TES via the Wiegand output.

? CAUTION: Not responsible for conflicts between the information listed in the wiring diagram and the requirements of your local building codes. The information is for suggested use ONLY. Check your local codes BEFORE installation.

The CAPAC unit provides Wiegand output connections (Data-1, Ground, Data-0) for integration with third-party access systems (TES / Access Control Wiegand).

ℹ️ NOTE: For UL installations, only a Listed UL 294 access control unit may be connected to Wiegand output 1 or 2.
