RY032AE AlphaEntry™ 32-Output
Signal Relay Board
Installation and Wiring Instructions
Make sure to mount the RY032AE board(s) in a dry and
ventilated environment, and keep away from any source
of potential electrical interference. Mount all RY032AE
boards away from AC power wiring, transformers, fluo-
rescent lights, light dimmers or other electrical devices. Do
not overtighten screws. Make sure the RY032AE boards
are not twisted or buckled. Observe all local and national
electrical and building codes! NOTE: the RY032AE
boards are computer quality boards, and should be
handled and installed with care. Do not subject to
static, or to extreme environmental conditions, and
try not to place your fingers on the board's elec-
tronic components.
WIRING
Route all cables away from AC power wiring, transform-
ers, fluorescent lights, light dimmers or other electrical
devices. Protect cable from damage. Shielded cable should
be used where required, and if cables cannot be run
adequately spaced away from any source of electrical
interference.
CONNECTIONS
Once the RY032AE boards are mounted properly, and
before connecting, make certain wires are free from
shorts or grounds. Make connections as shown on Page
4, and as detailed in the following instructions.
RY032AE 32-OUTPUT RELAY BOARD(s)
1. Connect the model# CT032AE6 interface cable
from the PC's RS-232 Serial Output, to the Serial IN
connector on the 1st RY032AE board, as per Fig. 4
on page 4. NOTE: if your PC does not have a
conventional 9-pin type serial connector, you
can use an available USB port, by plugging the
CT032AE6 cable into a USB to Serial Adapter
(equivalent to BAFO technologies model# BF-
810). This RY032AE board will be considered
Board #1 for programming purposes. Do not force
the plug onto the connector, and make sure it is
oriented and aligned as shown on the drawing.
NOTE: the model# CT032AE6 cable is a basic
6 foot long cable. You may add additional exten-
sion cables (to the 9-pin DIN Female connector
end only), as needed, to a
MAXIMUM of 200
feet in total. Do not cut or splice the CT032AE6
cable as it has integrated electronics to provide
all of the necessary RS-232 level translation
APPLICATION
The RY032AE AlphaEntry™ 32-Output Signal Relay
Board is used primarily with our AlphaEntry™ software,
to replace a conventional intercom (or video-intercom)
type door entry station with a PC-based graphical direc-
tory and calling system. It's versatility allows its use in
other specialty relay applications as well.
This installation and wiring manual should be used in
conjunction with the AlphaEntry™ Software User Manual
(# AEMANUAL) for complete system operation.
PROCEDURE
1. Read installation instructions for this unit to determine
proper location and installation method.
2. Install equipment.
3. Check wiring and connect. Observe all local and
national electrical and building codes.
4. Apply power and check unit operation.
INSTALLATION AND
EQUIPMENT LOCATION
The RY032AE relay board(s) should typically be installed
as close to the PC as possible and relatively close to an
accessible source of 117-120VAC power, for the re-
quired model# KE-PWR5/2A plug-in power supply. Six
(6) convenient mounting holes allow the unit to be mounted
to a board or wall surface (using stand-offs or spacers).
