ScramblePad and MATCH Interface Installation

In order to install a ScramblePad, you must:

• Install the Mounting Box – instructions on how to install the correct mounting boxes, determine the correct mounting height for each device, and the dimensions of each ScramblePad mounting box.

• Set up the ScramblePad – instructions on how to set ScramblePad DIP switches to assign each an ID.

• Wire the ScramblePad – detailed instructions on how to wire the ScramblePad to a controller.
  Each of these tasks is discussed in this section.

Installing the Mounting Box

Each ScramblePad must be installed in a mounting box. The available mounting boxes are shown in Figure 1-83.

Open

Some of the mounting boxes—like the MB1, MB3, and MB8—are designed for flush mounting, meaning the box is embedded in the wall. Other boxes—like the MB2, MB2S, MB4, MB9, and MB20—are designed for surface mounting, which means the box is attached to and juts from the wall. However, when used with the UMK, the MB2 becomes flush, semi-flush, or handicap mountable.

The MB2S is designed specifically for the DS47LScramblePad and DS47L-SPX ScrambleProx. When used with the UMK or UMKS, the MB2S becomes flush or handicap mountable.

The MB20 is used for mounting a keypad and magstripe reader side-by-side (dual technology). This box also enables you to install both a magstripe and prox reader at the same door, if you so choose. This entails installation of the ScrambleProx in the keypad position.

The MB5 is used for parking and other outdoor operations. It can be surface-mounted on a wall or, for parking applications, can use either the MP35 or MP41 mounting post. To determine how much space you’ll need for the mounting box, study the dimensions for each box as shown on the following pages.

Selecting a Mounting Height

Select the correct mounting height for the construction conditions at each door. If it isn’t right, the ScramblePad will be difficult to use properly.

Figure 1-88 shows how the ScramblePad mounting height differs according to the angle of viewing.

If users of the ScramblePad or MATCH are handicapped, pay particular attention to the height of the box. Most states require strict compliance with conditions of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) in addition to many local and regional code requirements. Consult the local codes for exact height requirements.

Each box requires slightly different instructions for mounting.

Installation instructions for each box and kit are provided on the following pages.

Installing the Universal Mounting Kits

The Universal Mounting Kit (UMK) works with the MB2 to provide three different configurations:

• Flush

• Semi-Flush

• Sloped (Handicap)

The Universal Mounting Kit Shallow (UMKS) works with the MB2S to provide two different
configurations:

• Flush

• Sloped (Handicap)

The MB2S and UMKS are only suitable for the DS47L-series ScramblePad and ScrambleProx, because the older DS37L-series ScramblePad is too deep for the MB2S. Each configuration is shown in Figure 1-91:

To Mount the MB2 and UMK:

1.Determine the height which is correct for this location. Refer to “Selecting a Mounting Height”.

2. Use the template in Figure 1-92 to cut the wall hole for the UMK/UMKS.

To continue with the ScramblePad installation, go to the next section: “Setting Up a DS47L ScramblePad/ScrambleProx” .

Setting Up a DS47L ScramblePad/ScrambleProx

After you install the mounting boxes, but before you connect the ScramblePad to the cable, you must first configure the ScramblePad.
There are ten DIP switches on the back of the DS47L-series ScramblePads.
These switches:

• Assign the Address

• Enable/disable the Tamper Alarm Function

• Test the unit

To setup the DS47L-series ScramblePad/ScrambleProx:

1.Assign an address to the ScramblePad. Use the chart on the back of the unit to help you determine the correct ID setting.

In this binary addressing scheme, SW1 = 8, SW2 = 4, SW3 = 2, and SW4 = 1.

Assign up to a maximum of 16 IDs per controller. IDs do not translate into Doors. The maximum number of doors handled by a Hirsch controller (Model 8) is still eight, but the controller interprets 1 - 8 as entries and 9 - 16 as exits. In this way, you can assign two ScramblePads/MATCHs for each door. For example, assign ID 1 to the entry ScramblePad on Door 1; assign ID 9 to the exit ScramblePad at Door 1.

1.The controller to which the ScramblePad is connected must read the ID (address) from the ScramblePad before it can act, so it is important that this is set correctly.

2. If required, enable dual readers by setting SW5 to ON. This enables the DS47L or DS47L-SPX to connect to a second reader for entry and exit applications.

3. Specify whether the readers attached to Reader 1 and Reader 2 ports are Wiegand or ABA Track 2 Mag Stripe by setting SW6:
OFF = ABA Track 2 Mag Stripe
ON = Wiegand

4. Specify whether the readers attached to the reader ports are Insert or Swipe by setting SW7:
OFF = Swipe
ON = Insert

5. Enable the Physical Tamper Alarm by setting SW8 to 1 (ON). When ON, the ScramblePad/ScrambleProx can detect attempts to tamper with it. If tampering is detected, all LEDs on the face flash red and the ScramblePad is disabled.

6. Set SW9 and SW10 to enable two different test procedures.
OFF causes the LEDs to blink in sequence. All segments of each LED displays an 8.
ON initiates the switch test. All keys are tested.

7. Set SW10 = ON to enable test modes.
SW10 must be enabled before SW9 can run either test.

Wiring the ScramblePad

After you’ve set up the ScramblePad/ScrambleProx, it’s time to route and connect the cable linking the ScramblePad to the controller.
For more about powering a ScramblePad locally, refer to “Powering the ScramblePad Locally”. For more about powering a MATCH locally, refer to “Powering the MATCH Locally”.
To wire the ScramblePad to the Controller:

1.Connect cable runs from the controller to the access control points for each ScramblePad at each door (as shown in Figure 1-102).

Recommended cable for DS47L-series ScramblePads is 2-pair, stranded, twisted, shielded cable, either 22 AWG or 18 AWG. Overall shield or individual shielded pairs are acceptable. Color coded cable – black, red, green, and white – is recommended. Pair 1, black and red, provide power to the ScramblePad; pair 2, green and white, provide data communications between the ScramblePad and the Controller. Digital signals are sent to the controller from the ScramblePad over the cabling—cable must be protected from surges, spikes and noise normally found on electric lock cables.

For information about wiring distances and connecting entry/exit or dual technology ScramblePads, refer to Table 1-6 and Table 1-7 starting in section “ScramblePad/MATCH Inputs”.

Two ScramblePads at the same door can share the same cable.

2. Remove the green plastic connector from the back of the ScramblePad and loosen screws on all connector slots.

3. Insert each wire into the ScramblePad connector as shown in Table 1-24 and Figure 1-100:

Use Figure 1-100 to aid you with the cabling the DS47L-series ScramblePads.

SW5 - SW10 settings for the DS47 differ depending on the generation being used.

The most recent DS47 ScramblePad generation (firmware versions 980313, 980103, and 971102) is displayed in Figure 1-100 and also in Table 1-25:

The previous DS47L ScramblePad (firmware version 971023 and 971024) settings are shown in Table 1-26:

The original release of the DS47 (firmware version before 970923) settings are shown in Table 1-27:

The insertion technique is shown in Figure 1-101:

4. Tighten the screws on each connector until the wires are securely fastened.

5. Plug the green connector into the keyed ScramblePad connector socket as shown in Figure 1-102.

6. If this is a DS47L, connect one or two card readers to the Reader 1 and Reader 2 ports as described in “Readers Setup”. Because the DS47L-series ScramblePads have integrated MATCH Reader Interfaces, connect each reader cable to the back of the DS47L just as you would to the back of an MRIB.

7. If this is a DS47L-SPX, the Reader 1 port is already connected to the integrated proximity reader. Connect a second reader to the Reader 2 port.

8. Use the supplied screws to mount the ScramblePad into the mounting box as shown in Figure 1-103.

If this is an MB3, MB4, MB5, MB8 or MB9 for outdoor use, insert a heavy-duty weather gasket (Hirsch # HB-HDG) between the ScramblePad and the box as shown in Figure 1-104.

9. Secure the bezel to the ScramblePad as shown in Figure 1-104.

Auto-Start

The Auto-Start function only works if the DS47’s MATCH functionality is enabled, using SW5-6. If SW5-6 are set to OFF-OFF—that is, if the DS47 is configured to act like a DS37—the ScramblePad will not auto-start. The auto-start feature works with any type of reader plugged into the MATCH connector.

When using CCM version 6.5.xx, the DS47 with auto-start enabled doesn’t change the way DIGI*TRAC firmware handles dual codes. Under normal dual operation, both the MATCH and DS47 keypad accepts a card code, then waits for the send (#) key to be pressed. Under CCOTZ operation, the MATCH or DS47 sends the card code immediately to validate the code. In this situation, the DS47 does not auto-start.

When using CCM version 6.6 or later, the ScramblePad provides “Smart Auto-Start” capability. When you present a card, the firmware immediately tries to validate it. If the code is valid, it grants access. If the card’s code is present in the code record database, it processes it appropriately. If the card’s code is invalid, the firmware blinks the yellow LED once and automatically starts up the ScramblePad. When a ScramblePad code is entered, the firmware attempts to process the card code and the ScramblePad code as a dual code, granting or denying access based on that combination.

Powering the ScramblePad Locally

Most of the time, the Controller provides sufficient power to run an attached ScramblePad. However, there are conditions which require more power than the Controller can supply. This can occur when more than the supported number of ScramblePads are connected to the Controller; or if the cable connecting the Controller to the ScramblePad exceeds the distance limitations specified in Table 1-6 in section “ScramblePad/MATCH Inputs”.

When this happens, you should connect a local 24VDC power supply with battery backup into the ScramblePad’s connector. To do this:

1.Turn all system power off, remove connectors to the standby battery, then remove connectors to the AC power.

2. Locate a 12VDC - 27VDC (for normal ScramblePad) or 18VDC - 27VDC (for highintensity ScramblePad) power supply (1 Amp) near the ScramblePad.

3. Run a pair of wires (usually twisted, shielded pair) from the power supply to the ScramblePad.

4. Connect the GND and + connectors at the power supply end.

5. Remove the ScramblePad terminal block from the ScramblePad’s.

6. If the Controller is already connected to the ScramblePad, disconnect the + (Red)
wire. It will not be used.

7. Rewire the block in this way:

• Attach a GND wire from the auxiliary power supply to the G terminal on the ScramblePad terminal block, along with the G (black) wire from the Controller.

• Attach a red wire from the power supply to the + terminal on the ScramblePad.

8. Power up the system. Figure 1-105 provides a view of this arrangement:

Testing the ScramblePad

Use the ScramblePad to request a status check. To request status, press:

This displays the status of the relay and line module input associated with the ScramblePad ID from which the request was entered.

To request the status of any specific relay and line module input connected to the controller, press:

For example, to display the status of Relay 8 and Alarm 8 from any ScramblePad, press:

This displays the status of Relay 8 and Alarm 8.

ScramblePad status reports are returned to and can be read from the ScramblePad LEDs as shown in Table 1-28:

Figure 1-106 shows the ScramblePad LEDs:

For more about troubleshooting ScramblePads, refer to “Troubleshooting the Controller Using Status LEDs” .

ScramblePad Maintenance

The only required maintenance for ScramblePads is a regular cleaning of the key face. Over time the key face can become dirty from a mixture of finger oil and acids along with normal dust and dirt. If regular cleaning is not performed, the key face will eventually require replacement. Clean with a non-abrasive cleaner, such as Simple Green.

Also, key faces on exterior ScramblePads in bright sunlit installations will eventually discolor from the sun’s UV rays. When necessary, the key face should be replaced.

MATCH Interface Installation

This is a multi-stage process:

• Setting up the MATCH

• Mounting the MATCH

• Wiring the MATCH

Each stage is detailed in this section.

Setting Up the MATCH

The MATCH Reader Interface Board (MRIB) contains two connectors for linking both a ScramblePad and a DIGI*TRAC or Mx controller. On the other side are two ports for connecting two reader cables.

There is also a 3-pin connector (P1) on the bottom of the MATCH enabling it to connect directly to a host PC for enrollment station applications as well as another 3-pin connector (P2) used for connecting the MATCH to a DIGI*TRAC Annunciator (DTA).

S1 Bank

The MATCH2 pictured above possesses the same number of connectors as the previous MATCH but has two, rather than one, DIP switch banks.

The S1 bank configures all standard settings for the MATCH – such as address, direction, and number of readers. For detailed settings, refer to Table 1-29 and Table 1-30. Use the S2 bank for specifying custom settings. These settings are pre-programmed into the MATCH2’s ROM and are implemented by setting the appropriate switches. For more about this, see Table 1-31. The Channel 1 input is dedicated to readers located on the entry side of the door. Channel 2 input is restricted to readers located on the exit side of the door.

S1 bank’s SW1 - SW4 settings are shown in Table 1-29 with a graphic of the switch configuration possibilities to the left.

For more information about addressing, refer to “ScramblePad/MATCH Addressing Conventions”.
S1 bank’s SW5-8 settings are shown in Table 1-30:
