Wiring Information
Gray | GND | Ground (RTN) | Primary ACU Connections |
Blue | +B | RS485-B | |
Violet | -A | RS485-A | |
Orange | VIN | +12V IN | |
Red | VO | Wiegand Voltage | Connections to 3rd Party Wiegand Reader |
Black | GND | Wiegand RTN | |
Green | WDO | Wiegand Data 0 | |
White | WD1 | Wiegand Data 1 | |

The temperature should not exceed -22°F to 140°F (-30°C to 60°C)
Openpath readers and ACUs communicate via RS-485. The following wire types are compatible, listed in the order of preference which impacts distance:
- Shielded CAM (recommended, additional two pairs can be used for sensors)
- Shielded CAT6
- Shielded RS485 w/22-24AWG (lower gauge, thicker wire is better)
- Shielded CATS
- Unshielded CAT6
- Unshielded CATS Shielded 22/6
- Unshielded 22/6
NOTE: Use one twisted pair for GND and VIN and one twisted pair for +B and -A.
Recommended maximum cable length: 300 ft (91 m) with CAT6 or 500 ft (152 m) if two wire pairs are used for GND and VIN (power).
For shielded wiring: Connect one side of the drain wire (the shield around the wires) to the GND terminal on the ACU. Both the shield and the GND wire can share the same GND terminal. Do not connect the other side of the shield to anything.
