Pre-Installation Procedures

Before you begin installing the Brivo control panel, perform the following tasks to ensure a safe, speedy,

and successful installation.

Understand the function of the Brivo ACS300 control panel (A/E/S).

The ACS300-E, ACS300-A, and ACS300-S are one or two (2) reader control panels with multiple

access points. This control panel is considered a standalone system. The control board has up

to two (2) readers on-board.

The Brivo ACS300-E uses an on-board Ethernet interface to communicate via any TCP/IP

networking technology that can be connected through a hub, router or switch, including Wi-Fi

and satellite communications. It is an IP-enabled Access Control System that interacts with the

Brivo OnAir cloud server via the Internet application Brivo OnAir.

The Brivo ACS300-A is identical to the ACS300-E except that the ACS300-A communicates to a

Brivo OnSite Server instead of the Brivo OnAir cloud server.

The Brivo ACS300-S is identical to the ACS300-E except that the ACS300-S cannot

communicate through the web. Instead, it is programmed through an on-board interface for data

management.

Understand Brivo ACS300 product compatibility.

The ACS300 control panel is compatible with a large number of standard reader models

including the following (UL tested for compatibility) reader models: HID600, Identiv 8110, HID

RPK40, Allegion MTK15, AWID KP-6840, and OSDP reader 921PTPTEK00385. Brivo products

are designed to accommodate the latest updates in Wiegand and OSDP using RS-485 reader

formats. The ACS300 control board is compatible with Wiegand devices that transmit up to 255-

bit data and OSDP readers using RS-485.

A current list of compatible readers and keypads is maintained on Brivo’s website at

http://www.brivo.com. If you have a specific model of reader or keypad that is not listed on the

Brivo website, please contact Technical Support at 1-866-BRIVO-4-U to determine

compatibility.

Verify that the client site is ready to support the installation.

1. Check with the IT department to ensure that the ACS300 version to be installed is

compatible with the company’s local area network (LAN).

a) The ACS300 is equipped with a standard RJ-45 socket that accepts a CAT5 or

CAT6 cable with an RJ-45 plug on any 10/100 Ethernet network. Physically

connecting the panel is the same as plugging any computer or other device into

the LAN.

b) Refer to the Panel Networking Admin Interface Guide (or in the case of the

ACS300-S, the Brivo OnSite Administrator’s Manual) for instructions on

connecting to the LAN. The Panel Networking Admin Interface Guide (or Brivo

OnSite Administrator’s Manual) also contains a complete list of requirements

regarding TCP/IP configuration parameters and information about security

considerations.

2. Download the corresponding Quick Start Guide from the Brivo website and provide it to

the Master Administrator. This document provides instructions for registering and

configuring the control panel in the appropriate application.

Brivo ACS300 Installation Manual Page 8

3. For Brivo OnAir accounts, make sure the account has been created and the control

panel is registered through Brivo OnAir. If the control panel has not been registered by

the dealer, the installer may either contact Brivo Technical Support for assistance or

simply register the panel directly.

4. Verify that the Master Administrator and any other employee who will be accessing the

system have Internet access on a computer equipped with a supported Web browser.

Verify shipping contents.

1. Locate and check the contents of the Control Panel kit.

The ACS300 kit should contain the following parts:

a) 1 cardboard box containing the following:

o The ACS300 unit, with its identification label adhered to the mylar shield

atop the ACS300 board.

o A quick start guide

o A bag of accessory parts containing:

• 2 MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors)

• 16 EOL (End of Line) resistors

• 4 screws for ACS300 box.

Plan your installation. Decide where to install the ACS300.

a) Calculate the distance between the ACS300 and its associated keypad or

reader. The ACS300 does not specify a maximum distance between the

ACS300 and a keypad or reader, but the keypad/reader manufacturer does.

Follow manufacturer guidelines for each keypad and reader.

b) Place the ACS300 within 500 feet of its associated electronic strike or latch.

Follow safety precautions.
