Altronix AL600ULACM Fail safe maglock. L, N connects to 115 VAC 60 Hz (L hot, N neutral), 14 AWG+. + DC − connects to 12/24 VDC 6 A to ACM8 (non power-limited). AC FAIL NC/C/NO connects to AC loss supervision, 1 A @28 VDC. BAT FAIL NC/C/NO connects to Low/missing battery, 1 A @28 VDC. + BAT − connects to Standby battery (lead acid/gel). − Power + connects to DC input from PSU board. − Control + connects to Optional isolated board power (remove J1, J2). INPUT 1–8 IN, GND connects to NO dry or open collector sink triggers. OUTPUT 1–8 NC, C, NO, COM connects to Fail-safe NC(+)/COM(−); fail-secure NO(+)/COM(−); aux C(+)/COM(−); Form C 5 A when fuse removed. FACP T, + INPUT − connects to Fire alarm interface input. FACP NC, C, NO connects to Alarm relay 1 A @28 VDC (not UL evaluated).

Key specs

Output	12 or 24 VDC @ 6 A (SW1 closed = 12 V, open = 24 V)
Outputs	8 fused, 3.5 A each
Acm8 main fuse	10 A
Psu input fuse	5 A/250 V
Standby 12v	4 h: 5.5 A / 24 h: 0.5 A (40 AH)
Standby 24v	4 h: 5.75 A / 24 h: 0.75 A (40 AH)
Charger	0.7 A max
Enclosure	15.5 x 12 x 4.5 in, holds two 12 AH batteries

Keep power-limited and non power-limited wiring 0.25 in apart

Measure output voltage before connecting devices

Batteries optional for access control; without them AC loss drops outputs

24 V needs two 12 V batteries in series

Two different 'SW1's: PSU voltage switch vs ACM8 FACP switch 1
