SB-593 Satellite Board Setup

 

SB-593 Satellite Board

 


The SB-593 connects to the PXL-500 controller to provide access control to a second door or it can be configured as an I/O controller, providing you with 8 inputs and 4 outputs.

 

Even when the SB-593 is configured for controlling you will still have 6 inputs and 2 additional outputs.

 

For a two-door application you should install the reader for door 1 into the TB5 connection of the PXL-500 and install the reader for the second door into the TB6 connector of the satellite board.

 

When controlling 2 doors you will typically have a reader for entry and a request-to-exit switch for egress.

 

 

SB-593 Setup Procedure

  1. Set the JP12 jumper to configure the SB-593 for either I/O control or for 2-door control.

  2. Install the white plastic stand-offs to the holes in each corner of the SB-593

    - The smaller stand-offs are used on legacy controllers
    - The larger, (longer) standoffs are used when connecting to the new PXL-500-1 or PXL-500G-1 controllers.

  3. Ensure the PXL-500 controller is powered OFF.
  4. Line up the left-hand corner of the SB-593 with the PXL controller.
  5. Line up the standoffs in the top two corners of the SB-593 with corresponding mounting holes in the PCB corners.
  6. Align the SB-593 connector pins to the PXL mounting holes.
  7. Gently press the two boards together with each stand-off into its respective mounting holes and with the connector pins meshing together with their mounting holes.
  8. Turn the PXL controller's power ON.
  9. If the PXL controller existed in the database as a 1-door controller you will see the following message once it is back online.

  10. Click the Apply button and the controller configuration will be automatically updated in the hardware tree (and the database).
  11. Expand the controller and you will see the additional inputs and outputs.
