Power, Battery, & Ground Wiring

Power Wiring

✦ NOTE: DO NOT APPLY POWER UNTIL THE INSTALLATION

IS COMPLETE. TURN MAIN POWER SWITCH OFF BEFORE

WIRING.

1. Route two wires between the AE-100 and the power transformer.

For power wire runs up to 100 feet, use 18 AWG, THHN 600-volt •

insulated wire.

For power wire runs up to 200 feet, use 16 AWG, THHN 600-volt •

insulated wire.

2. Connect the wires to the transformer. Connect the other

end of the wires to the AE-100 16 VAC terminals.

Backup Battery

Use of a battery backup is optional. It will allow the AE-100 to operate for

short periods of time without AC power. The door or gate access device

must use some type of battery backup of its own for the entire system to

be functional.

A 1.2 amp/hour backup battery will ﬁ t into the AE-100 case. If using a

larger external battery (up to 7 amp/hour capacity), protect the backup

battery inside a rain-tight NEMA enclosure suitable for the installation

and splice into the two AE-100 battery wires.

✦ NOTE: A backup battery is not required to maintain the AE-100

programming memory during power outages.

1A. For an internal backup battery, place the battery

on the bottom of the AE-100 cabinet.

✦ NOTE: UL Listing requires that the internal backup battery must

be secured to the cabinet with double-stick tape or by using another

secure method.

1B. For an external backup battery, cut off the two spade lugs from

the AE-100’s battery wires. Route two red and black 18 AWG

wires between the AE-100 and the backup battery location.

Splice and insulate the wires to the AE-100’s red and black

battery wires. OBSERVE POLARITY! Use the two spade lugs

from the AE-100 or new spade lugs to connect to the battery.

2. Connect the battery positive to the RED wire.

3. Connect the battery negative to the BLACK wire.

Earth Ground

For the best ground, use size 12 gauge solid wire or larger to connect

the AE-100 to an 8-foot copper ground rod. Locate the ground rod next

to the Power and Telephone company rods and bond the rods together

with a new clamp. Do not disturb the clamps installed by the Power or

Telephone Company. Alternately, connect to a cold water pipe for the

earth ground.

1. Connect the wire from the earth ground to the

AE-100’s CASE GROUND STUD.

✦ NOTE: The circuit board’s GROUND terminal is internally

connected to the EARTH GROUND STUD by a green ground wire.

Main Power Switch

After the installation’s wiring is complete, set the MAIN POWER switch to

ON to apply power to the system for programming and testing.
