Setting up Built-In Door Ports on DSX-40

1. Connect an Analog Door Box to a DSX-40 Door Box Port.

  1. DOOR 1 is DSX-40 extension 326.
  2. DOOR 2 is DSX-40 extension 327.
  3. Use the following illustration as a guide when connecting Analog Door Boxes to DSX-40.


  4. Refer to the DSX-40 Hardware Manual for additional connection details.

2. Have a "built-in" Door Box activate a control relay.

  1. This programming does not apply to a Door Box connected to a 2PGDAD Module.
  2. 2101-06: Door Relay Assignment [Stations: Config: Setup: Type (2101): Door Relay Assignment]
    For DOOR 1 (326) or DOOR 2 (327), assign the associated control relay.
    • 1 for relay CPU #1 (normally assigned to DOOR 1/extension 326).
    • 2 for relay CPU #2 (normally assigned to DOOR 2/extension 327).
    Option Description
    0 [Default] Not assigned.
    1 CPU Relay 1 (DSX40-1)
    2 CPU Relay 2 (DSX40-2)
  3. 1605-03: Door Relay Unlock Timer [System: Timers: Features: Control (1605): Door Relay]
    This timer sets the interval that the system or PGDAD Module relay remains closed after a keyset user activates (closes) the relay. After this interval, the relay automatically returns to its open (idle) state.
    Option Description
    0 Disabled.
    1-9999 Seconds. [Default] = 30 seconds.

3. To have a Door Box operate a DSX-40 and PGDAD relay in tandem:

  1. 2101-06: Door Relay Assignment [Stations: Config: Setup: Type (2101): Door Relay Assignment]
    For the 2PGDAD Module Door Box extension number, assign the same associated control relay that is assigned to the built-in Door Box port.
    Option Description
    0 [Default] Not assigned.
    1 CPU Relay 1 (DSX40-1)
    2 CPU Relay 2 (DSX40-2)
  2. Both relays will now operate simultaneously.
