Access Control Overview An access control system protects and preserves an enterprise’s resources by providing authentication, authorization, and administration services. Authentication is a process that verifies a user’s identity. If the user is verified, the system then either grants or denies access to specific areas and resources.

An MPA1C1 access control unit is a full-featured single-door web-based smart edge access control system. The MPA1C1 panel includes a built-in web server, built-in Ether- net, and PoE (Power over Ethernet) capability. You can manage the access control system using either a web browser, MPC (MAXPRO®...

MPA1C1 Access Control Unit You can use the MPA1C1 panel as a standalone panel with inde- pendent card and transaction storage or, with a host software upgrade, as a fully monitored online access control device. The three panel inputs are capable of four state supervision: Normal, Alarm, Short and Cut.

The MPA1C1 Controller slides and snaps into the enclosure inner base without using any tools. Make sure that the RJ45 Connector is on the outer left side. The below figures show how to insert the MPA1C1 controller in the MPA1ENCP inner base.
Page 17
Note: The MPA1C1 Controller has been installed already in the MPA1ENCP enclosure.

Fix Wirings The design of the base is so that the wiring can be lead neatly in the cabinet using the openings at the edges of the inner base. The cables can be tied down the using the cable ties at the cable tie points.
Page 20
Break out tabs in the cover Cables can be lead in the side of the cover when breaking out the break out tabs per picture below.
Page 21
Fix enclosure base to the wall Fix the plastic enclosure base to the wall using 4 large screws (not included in the accessory bag). Make sure the secure fixing is suitable for the material of the wall. Note the location of the fixing holes.
Page 22
The Inner Base The inner part (inner base) of the base can be snapped out of the outer part.Turn the base, facing the full base from the back side. Push the indicated plastic clips out. Move the inner base towards you.
Page 23
Take out the inner base and turn it facing the labels toward you. and snap in the MPA1C1 panel.
Page 24
The inner base (with MPA1C1) can now be mounted on other devices or in a metal cabinet, using 2 or 4 short cabinet mount- ing screw supplied in the accessory bag.
Page 25
The inner base can be mounted on top of a MPA2 controller, a MAXPRO intrusion smart power supply or on the bottom of the metal enclosure. The inner base can also be mounted on a DIN- Rail using DIN-Rail adapters. Note: Above mounting option is not evaluated by UL294 and CAN/ULC60839-11-1.

OSDP (Open Supervised Device Protocol) is a bi-directional RS485 multi-drop AES128 Encrypted protocol. The MPA1C1 provides a single OSDP connection for the door which can have 2 OSDP readers connected (Address ‘01’ = Entry reader and Address ‘02’ = Exit reader).
Page 27

Wiring Electrical Door Lock Wire door strikes and magnetic locks. Wiring Door Strikes • Follow these steps to wire door strike to the Controller Board: • Use the following figure to locate the door strike terminals on the controller and to wire the door strike lock according to the power supply used.
Page 29
Wiring a Magnetic Lock Use the following instructions to wire a heavy duty magnetic lock to the Controller Board: • Use the following figure to locate the AUX OUTPUT voltage free terminals on the controller and to wire the magnetic lock according to the powersupply used.
Page 30
Wiring auxiliary output The auxiliary relay output can be used to connect voltage / potential free connections upto 2A @ 30VDC. Power Factor is 0.6. There are 3 outputs at the AUX OUT terminal block: • N/C (Normally Closed): Connected to COM when relay is not energized •...
