INTRODUCTION

TM

The AP-4 is designed for a broad range of access control applications. Its wireless design and
small size make it easily adaptable for a variety of access control requirements. Typically, the AP-4
is used to control a door strike, barrier gate, automatic gate or automatic door operator.
The AP-4 contains a high-gain UHF receiver which uses an external antenna to pick up signals
from up to 250 feet away. Up to 480 Linear MegaCode® transmitters and one Model MGT safety
edge transmitter can be programmed into the AP-4’s memory. The AP-4 will retain its memory,
even without power.
Two dry contact relay outputs are provided. One relay is the ACCESS RELAY (K1), which triggers
for two seconds each time a programmed transmitter is activated. This relay output connects
to the pushbutton or radio input of the access device. The second relay is the OBSTACLE
RELAY (K2), which triggers for two seconds when an obstacle signal is sent from a Model MGT
safety edge transmitter. This relay output connects to the obstacle input of the access device. An
OPEN REQUEST input terminal is supplied for hardwired activation of the access device with an
external pushbutton or keyswitch.
The AP-4 can be powered from 12-24 Volts AC or DC. The Form C relay outputs can switch up to
1 Amp each. An EARTH GROUND terminal is provided as an optional connection for maximum
lightning and static protection.
Three utility functions can be displayed by pressing the pound (#) key then the digits 1-3. The
utility functions display the status of the obstacle transmitter (#1), the total number of transmitters
programmed (#2), and the total number of transmitter ID blocks programmed (#3).

SAFETY WARNING

The AP-4 can fully supervise the MGT safety edge transmitter. The system monitors the
MGT transmitter for hourly status reports, tamper signals, and low battery signals. A beep will
sound every 5 seconds if a fault occurs and the trouble source can be displayed by pressing
pound-one (#1). A transmitter must be activated twice to trigger the ACCESS RELAY if a
supervisory trouble condition exists on the MGT transmitter (unless the MGT has been
suspended). To clear the supervisory trouble after servicing, press the CANCEL button.

LINEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
This Linear product is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for twenty-four (24)
months. This warranty extends only to wholesale customers who buy direct from Linear or
through Linear’s normal distribution channels. Linear does not warrant this product to consumers.
Consumers should inquire from their selling dealer as to the nature of the dealer’s warranty, if any.
There are no obligations or liabilities on the part of Linear corporation for consequential
damages arising out of or in connection with use or performance of this product or other
indirect damages with respect to loss of property, revenue, or profit, or cost of removal,

Warranty is in lieu of all other warranties express or implied.
All products returned for warranty service require a Return Product Authorization Number (RPA#).
Contact Linear Technical Services at 1-800-421-1587 for an RPA# and other important details.
IMPORTANT!!!
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable
wireless signalling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed.
• The radios are required to comply with FCC Part 15 and Industry Canada Rules and Regulations.
As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
• A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by
radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
• Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected
interference or fault.
• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale
distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
