General Information

DSX Intelligent Controllers are independent processing 2 door packages designed to be cost effective building blocks that allows expansion in a scalable manner. Up to 8 doors can be controlled from 1 enclosure for an efficient space saving package. The controllers are strategically placed throughout the customer location connected together with a two twisted pair cable. Each Controller operates as a fully intelligent and independent control panel that retains all data necessary for system operation in it’s own RAM. With it’s integral real-time Clock and Calendar it performs Time Zone control with Holiday overrides for inputs, outputs, and cards even when communication to the PC or other controllers is not available. 

 

Controller Architecture

The DSX-1048 Intelligent Controller may be used in conjunction with all other DSX Controllers as a Master or Slave in the panel network. Any controller may be designated as a Master or Slave panel. The Master or Slave mode of operation is determined by the panel’s dip switch settings. The first panel of each location is designated as the Master while all others would be considered Slaves. The Master is responsible for communications to the PC and to the Slave panels. Up to 64 - Intelligent Controllers can be used in a single Location providing 128 readers. Multiple Locations can be grouped for systems that require more than 128 readers/keypads.
