Easily add single doors to a Cloud Node. The single io controller is used for adding doors to a Cloud Node one door at a time or expanding an existing pdk system. With the option of network, PoE, or wireless connectivity, the single io is the most flexible controller on the market. Each unit is equipped with a fully supervised power circuit that monitors input, output, battery voltage, and overall controller health. Users receive important system notifications via text and email. The single io is often mounted at or above the door to minimize the amount of wire to be pulled.

Single io Features

Scalability

Whether you need three doors or a thousand, the single io controller allows you to scale the system to just the right size. In addition, with the flexibility of our WiMAC (Wireless Mesh Access Control), you can add more doors anytime, or anywhere.

Plug n’ Play Connectivity

All io devices were designed to be plug n’ play. That means they’re easy to install right out of the box. It’s simple to add in any io device no matter how large the job is, and you can quickly scale a system to any size. A Cloud Node can connect to as many as a thousand doors on a single platform.

Two Reader Inputs

Two reader inputs are ideal for applications where both read-in and read-out is a security requirement. Know exactly when users enter and exit a premise. The second reader input can also be assigned to trigger automated events.

Fully Supervised

Never be caught off guard again. Pdk.io intelligently monitors the network and wireless connectivity of each controller in your system and alerts you if any issues arise.

Unparalleled Wireless Range

With WiMAC, experience up to a one-mile line of sight, and 450 ft. (on average) indoor range. Every WiMAC device installed extends and strengthens the self-healing wireless mesh network. WiMAC is unmatched in security with a proprietary signal and AES encryption.

Network, PoE, Wireless

Choose from three flexible connectivity options that fit any application. The single io is built for ultra-low bandwidth consumption and easily connects to existing or dedicated networks. Easily expand a system’s wireless coverage (via network) using the Ethernet gateway.

NOTE: When using a Single io Power Over Ethernet (PoE), a 30 watts POE injector is required to power the Single io.

Mounting Instructions

Before you begin the installation, read the instructions thoroughly. Make sure you have read and understand the Safety Information.

Please follow these mounting suggestions:

To optimize signal strength, mount the single io and Cloud Node above the door frame or higher where possible.
Strategic placement of the single io will optimize wireless communication with the controllers.
Install the single io and Cloud Node in an environmentally controlled and secure area.
Ensure the antenna (WiMAC Wireless version) is free from obstructions such as close proximity to metal beams and pillars, and high-power cables that may cause wireless interference.

These instructions allow you to easily fasten the box properly and securely to a wall surface. Prior to beginning, ensure you have the package contents, tools, and necessary materials for the installation on an appropriate surface (drywall, wood, etc.).

Use the single io box to mark the hole positions on the wall and drill holes into the surface. If mounting onto drywall, insert the anchors into the holes to secure the screws to the surface.
Align the can’s holes to the holes in the wall surface and mount the controller box with the screws so the box is securely fastened to the wall.
If the communication method is wireless, connect the antenna to the RP-SMA and mount the antenna to the top of the enclosure. See Antenna Mounting Best Practices for additional information.

NOTE: For UL certified wire installations, all wire running from a single io door controller to a lock, strike, or reader device must be less than 98.5 feet (30 meters).

Strip the wire ends as required to expose the wiring.
Install the reader and attach the wires meeting your reader configurations. See Wiring Diagrams for additional information.
Connect the wires between the door controller and locks and any other devices.

NOTE: For information about the connectors and their specifications and diagrams, refer to the appropriate wiring diagrams: Maglock, Door Strike (Fail Secure), and Door Strike (Fail Safe).

For devices that have been configured in the product’s hardware configuration pages, use the hardware pin charts as a guide on how to connect the pins. For information about hardware configuration and pin charts, see the Connectors section.

For information about connecting other wires, such as power, to third-party locks, readers, and other devices, refer to the respective manufacturers’ instructions.

Battery backup is HIGHLY recommended on all ProdataKey hardware. Add a 12VDC 1.5 Ah battery, attaching the wires from the battery to the circuit board battery terminal.

Connect the included Intertex 14.0VAC 2000mA Class 2 transformer to the input terminals on the circuit board (A/1). From the Intertex transformer, connect a red 18/2 wire from the positive (+) DC terminal to the positive (+) Cloud Node connector; connect a black 18/2 wire from the transformer’s negative (-) DC terminal to the negative (-) Cloud Node connector (A/1 in the two illustrations above). This connection is NOT polarity sensitive. DO NOT connect any other devices to the Intertex transformer.

NOTE: DO NOT power the transformer and backup battery until ALL wiring is completed and verified; incorrect wiring could cause damage to the product.

WiMAC Wireless Antenna Mounting Best Practices

The wireless reach of the antenna spreads out in a horizontal, donut-like pattern. Consider the controller’s antenna direction. Because the controller can be mounted horizontally or vertically, there are some best practices to consider regarding the antenna.

(A) - Vertical - When mounting the controller vertically be sure the antenna is unobstructed and pointing straight for the best signal.

(B) - Horizontal - When mounting the controller horizontally, turn the antenna 90 degrees for the best signal.

(C) - Door - To finalize installation, secure door with included screws or use a can lock.

(D) - Positioning - The best signal is achieved by mounting controllers at the top of the door or higher, or in a drop ceiling.

The antenna’s wireless signal strength has a one-mile line-of-sight range, or an indoor average of 450 feet, depending on the building’s construction type.
Install the single io controller and Cloud Node in an environmentally controlled and secure area.
Be mindful of the building’s construction and the controller’s location; positioning the antenna around metal or near high voltage can impair signal strength.
Installing multiple wireless door controllers in close proximity to each other is NOT ideal. It can impair signal strength. For wireless controllers, a MINIMUM distance of 15 feet (or an ideal -35 to -60 dBm signal strength*) between controllers is recommended.

* Signal strength is represented in -dBm (decibel-milliwatts) format (0 to -100). dBm is a unit of level used to indicate a power ratio expressed in decibels with reference to one milliwatt (mW). This is the power ratio in decibels of the measured power.

Power

Installing Single io Power

Power Supply

Connect the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the included Intertex 14.0 VAC 2A Class 2 transformer to the corresponding positive (+) and negative (-) input terminals on the single io circuit board. DO NOT connect any other devices to the transformer.

NOTE: DO NOT power the transformer and backup battery until ALL wiring is completed and verified; incorrect wiring could cause damage to the product.

Power Supply Wiring Diagram

NOTE: DO NOT share power with other devices off of the same power supply, such as a Cloud Node.

(A/1) Transformer (DC Input) - From the Intertex 14VAC 2Amp Class 2 transformer, connect a red 18/2 wire from the transformer’s positive (+) DC terminal to the positive (+) connector; connect a black 18/2 wire from the transformer’s negative (-) DC terminal to the negative (-) connector (as shown in the illustrations above). DO NOT connect any other devices to these transformer terminals.

NOTE: Mounting the included transformer bracket:

Determine the electrical outlet to be used for powering the transformer.
Remove the center mounting screw from the electrical outlet faceplate.
Remove the bracket’s protective adhesive foam backing and carefully align the bracket’s mounting hole with the outlet faceplate hole. Firmly press and hold the adhesive foam tape against the faceplate for several seconds.
Replace the faceplate’s mounting screw with the included longer screw to secure the bracket and the outlet faceplate.

NOTE: The power supply must be installed indoors.

(B/2) Battery - A backup battery is HIGHLY recommended to prevent system failure in the event of an AC power loss. Use a 12VDC 1.2 to 1.5Ah rechargeable lead-acid battery. When a backup battery is not used, a loss of AC power will cause a loss of output voltage.

Battery

Using a battery that meets the following specifications will provide at least 30 minutes of backup power in the event of an AC power loss.

Recommended Battery Type: 12VDC 1.2 to 1.5Ah lead-acid battery.
Typical Battery Size: 4” x 1.8” x 2.5” (L H W)
Approx. Battery Compartment Dimensions: 6” x 3.5 x 1.9” (L H W)

Battery backup is HIGHLY recommended on all ProdataKey hardware. A backup battery must be used to prevent system failure in the event of an AC power loss.

Battery Wiring Diagram

NOTE: DO NOT power the transformer or battery connections until ALL wiring is completed and verified.

NOTE: AFTER all single io wiring has been completed and checked, and a backup battery is installed, you may plug the transformer into the bracketed power outlet and connect the backup battery.

If you have any questions or need help with installation or with any of the hardware described here, please feel free to contact the ProdataKey Technical Support staff.

Battery Maintenance

Check the battery regularly and replace only with an identical battery or a ProdataKey recommended battery. Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations or the battery manufacturer’s instructions.

IMPORTANT: There is a risk of a battery explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

Optional Battery Enclosure

The addition of an extra enclosure installed next to this enclosure is an option as long as the additional battery is connected with conduit and proper battery terminal end connectors.

Wireless / Ethernet Connections

(1) - Wireless WiMAC - All wireless connections come pre-connected. If you find the antenna whip is off or your signal is weak, you will want to check this connection.

NOTE: If two Cloud Nodes are in the same vicinity (even within a mile) and you are unable to detect a wireless device on the nearest Cloud Node, check the other Cloud Node in Discovery to see if it connected to the wrong Cloud Node.

(2) - Ethernet - Ethernet connected gate controllers accept RJ45 connections. When used, the controller will be assigned a DHCP address. Controllers can be assigned a static IP address by using the Lantronix network utility software referred to below.

NOTE: By default, wireless devices use what is known as DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), which automatically assigns a dynamic (temporary) IP address for a network. For single io Ethernet connections, a static (permanent) IP address is REQUIRED; a static IP address is not required for Cloud Nodes.

Static IP Address

To set up a static IP address for an Ethernet device, the third-party Lantronix DeviceInstaller application can be used. The suggested static IP address can be obtained from your IT manager or network administrator. The default dynamic IP address that is already assigned to the device by the router may also be used and converted to a static IP address.

Download the Lantronix DeviceInstaller (stand-alone version) at the Lantronix website for the necessary zip file (and DeviceInstaller Help, if necessary) to install and use this application.

NOTE: If or when you set a static IP on a Cloud Node and the Cloud Node does not come back online immediately, give it a few minutes. If it still does not come online then power cycle the Cloud Node for approximately 10 seconds; the Cloud Node should come back online.

When adding an Ethernet door controller, ensure that when you are using the Lantronix device installer app that your WiFi is turned off and you are hard-wired from your laptop to the customer’s network, otherwise you will not be able to see the devices.

Piezo Device to Door Controller Instructions Video

Maglock / Exit Device Wiring Diagram

A magnetic lock, or maglock, is a locking device that consists of an electromagnet and an armature plate. Locking devices can be either fail safe or fail secure. The electromagnet portion of the lock is typically attached to the door frame; a mating armature plate is attached to the door. The two components are in contact when the door is closed. When the electromagnet is energized, a current passing through the electromagnet causes the plate to attract the electromagnet, creating a locking action.

Installing a REX and Maglock to a Door Controller

NOTE: For UL certified wire installations, all wire running from a single io door controller to a lock, strike, or reader device must be less than 98.5 feet (30 meters).

(A/1) Maglock - When installing a maglock, it is required to install an electronic REX (Request to Exit) device as well as a mechanical button at the same door for free egress (in case of electrical failure). Run 18/2 wire connections from the maglock to the door controller, as shown above.

NOTE: If possible, when installing a maglock, avoid using and wiring up the bond sensor at the maglock for a DPS. A bond sensor is a built-in DPS on a maglock. For some unknown reason, it is not compatible with our programming. When a DPS is required, install an actual DPS.

(B/2) REX / Exit Device - Mounted in the desired location with 18/5 wire running from the REX to the controller (18/3 wire if non-powered REX). Wire the REX to the controller and maglock, as shown above. If using a powered REX, run to any 12VDC output on the controller. (If reporting is not needed in the system, simply eliminate the dashed wire.)

NOTE: It is not recommended to power third-party devices to the i/o board. Use a separate external power supply when wiring the exit device.

(C/3) Jumper - Use the designated positive (+) or negative (-) board voltage out of (NO) and (NC). If the jumper is off, the relay is a standard “dry contact” needing input into common. In this diagram, the jumper is placed on the top (-) and center pin to operate the maglock.

If you have any questions or need help with installation or with any of the hardware described in this manual, please feel free to contact the ProdataKey Technical Support staff.

NOTE: When using Bosch and WBOX brand REX devices, they need to be wired to NO (Normally Open) and C (Common) instead of NC (Normally Closed) and C (Common).

Locking Relay Wiring Diagram

(A) Diode - The provided diode MUST be installed when using a strike. Install at the strike with the stripe of the diode on positive (+) and the black on negative (-).

IMPORTANT: The diode MUST be installed as close to the lock as possible. The best scenario (if possible) is directly across the screw terminals on the lock (as shown in the first image). Another option is to splice the diode in parallel (shown in image two), connecting it to the positive (+) and negative (-) strike wires using dolphin connectors, and crimp the wires. For questions or detailed information, please contact the ProdataKey Support staff.

Installing the diode backward for a strike can cause the Cloud Node or the io door controller to reboot. A damaged or blown (dead) diode can act as if there is no diode, installed backward, or show incorrect data in the logs such as a card scan when the strike returns to the default state.

(B) - NC - Normally Closed - Used for maglocks (or strikes in fail-safe configuration). Connect the negative (-) of the maglock or strike to NC on the door controller.

(C) - NO - Normally Open - Used for strikes in the fail-secure configuration. Connect the negative (-) of the strike to NO on the door controller.

(D) - Jumper - Used to designate (+) or (-) board voltage out of NO and NC. If the jumper is off, the relay is a standard “dry contact” needing input into common. In this diagram, the jumper is placed on (-) side to operate the strike.

NOTE: For UL certified wire installations, all wire running from a single io door controller to a lock, strike, or reader device must be less than 98.5 feet (30 meters).

If you have any questions or need help with installation or with any of the hardware described in this manual, please feel free to contact the ProdataKey Technical Support staff.

Diode Setup

A diode is a standard semiconductor device integral to the safe and proper function of the door controller. It acts as a grounding tool, allowing the flow of current in one direction only. When a door strike is called / requested / sent, the coil sends a spike (also called “kickback voltage”) down the line with as much as 50,000 volts. Without a diode semiconductor, this kickback voltage would damage the control equipment. When properly installed, the diode keeps kickback voltage localized at the lock.

To protect your equipment against electrical kickback, the diode must be installed across the DC powered lock, at the strike, between positive (+) and ground (-). DC voltage is polarized. The diode must be installed in the direction shown in the illustrations: Gray stripe to positive (+), black to negative or ground (-).

Installing a Strike to a Door Controller

Fail-Secure Door Strike Wiring Diagram

Locking devices can be either fail safe or fail secure. A fail-secure locking device remains locked when power is lost. An electric strike replaces the fixed strike faceplate often used with a latch bar. It normally presents a ramped surface to the locking latch allowing the door to close and latch just like a fixed strike.

NOTE: For UL certified wire installations, all wire running from a single io door controller to a lock, strike, or reader device must be less than 98.5 feet (30 meters).

(A) Diode - The provided diode MUST be installed when using a strike. Install at the strike with the stripe of the diode on positive (+) and the black on negative (-).

IMPORTANT: The diode MUST be installed as close to the lock as possible. The best scenario (if possible) is directly across the screw terminals on the lock (shown in the first image). Another option is to splice the diode in parallel (shown in image two), connecting it to the positive (+) and negative (-) strike wires using dolphin connectors, and crimp the wires. For questions or detailed information, please contact the ProdataKey Support staff.

(B) NO - Normally Open - Used for maglocks (or strikes in fail-safe configuration). Connect the negative (-) of the maglock or strike to NC (Normally Closed) on the door controller.

(C) Jumper - Use the designated positive (+) or negative (-) board voltage out of (NO) and (NC). If the jumper is off, the relay is a standard “dry contact” needing input into common. In this diagram, the jumper is placed on the negative (-) and center pin to operate the maglock.

If you have any questions or need help with installation or with any of the hardware described in this manual, please feel free to contact the ProdataKey Technical Support staff.

Diode Setup

Fail-Safe Door Strike Wiring Diagram

Locking devices can be either fail safe or fail secure. A fail-safe locking device unlocks when power is lost. An electric strike replaces the fixed strike faceplate often used with a latch bar. It normally presents a ramped surface to the locking latch allowing the door to close and latch just like a fixed strike.

NOTE: For UL certified wire installations, all wire running from a single io door controller to a lock, strike, or reader device must be less than 98.5 feet (30 meters).

(A) Diode - The provided diode MUST be installed when using a strike. Install at the strike with the stripe of the diode on positive (+) and the black on negative (-).

(B) NC - Normally Closed - Used for maglocks (or strikes in fail-safe configuration). Connect the negative (-) of the maglock or strike to NC on the door controller.

(C) Jumper - Use the designated positive (+) or negative (-) board voltage out of (NO) and (NC). If the jumper is off, the relay is a standard “dry contact” needing input into common. In this diagram, the jumper is placed on the negative (-) and center pin to operate the maglock.

If you have any questions or need help with installation or with any of the hardware described in this manual, please feel free to contact the ProdataKey Technical Support staff.

Diode Setup

Door Position Sensor (DPS) Wiring Diagram

(1) DPS - The Door Position Sensor is mounted on the door frame in the desired location with a 22/2 wire running from the DPS to the controller. The black DPS negative (-) is connected to negative (-) on the controller board, and the red DPS positive (+) wirer is connected to the A connector. (When using two DPS sensors for double doors, wire them in series with only two conductors running back to the controller.)

(2) Input A - Rule-based inputs can be triggered by using the (A) input for something other than DPS.

NOTE: When Input A receives a negative (-) connection from the controller, the input is triggered until the negative is dropped. A rule can be set up to trigger any output based on this input trigger.

NOTE: In the event that a single io Ethernet door controller goes down and is set to DHCP, when the controller comes back online, it will be necessary to use the Lantronix device installer to see what IP address the controller is pulling. The IP address for that controller will have to be changed.
