Dual Port Interface (DPI)

Dual Port Interface (DPI)

An integral component of the system, the Dual Port Interface (DPI) was designed with reliability and economy in mind.

One DPI is used to activate two ports on on all Galaxy access control panels.

This allows for more economic installations when all the ports on a given panel are not being used. It also provides exceptional surge protection to guard against damage from electrical spikes, and is easily replaced (if need be) by simply “hot swapping” a new DPI. There is no need to shut the system down for simple maintenance.

Benefits

Surge Protection
Each DPI has exceptional
surge protection to absorb electrical spikes and intermittent voltages to prevent damage to the CPU.

Flexible and Cost Effective
4 relays per board (2 for each port) allow for greater flexibility in controlling multiple devices, making installations more cost effective.

Easy to Install/Replace
The DPI may be exchanged while controller power is applied
(Hot Swapped).

Specifications

Fused Output Power:
5 VDC -- 75 mA 12 VDC -- 200 mA

Installation:
Insert into plug-in connectors along
center of Backplane. Each connector
is keyed to prevent backward insertion.---
Backplane labels indicate which ports
are supported by each DPI.

Relay Specification:
Form “C” rated 1.5 amps @ 24 VDC

Temperature Range:
-10ºC to +60ºC, non-condensing Input

Supported Devices

Reader, Alarm Monitoring Module, Output Control Module, Elevator Control Module, or, up to 4 NC (normally closed) inputs (i.e. door contacts, glass breaks, etc.).

Supported Reader Technologies:

Wiegand, Barcode, Magnetic Stripe, Proximity, Smart Card and most Biometric
