System Overview
This manual provides instructions for selecting, installing and configuring SA3000 Security Access
System. Recommendations on selecting an installation location and selecting Door Accessories, used
to monitor and control access at a door, are included. Wiring diagrams show how to connect the
SA3000 system.
The SA3000 Door Access System, designed to work with Blackboard Transaction System (BbTS), consists
of:
• SA3000 Controller (page 2)
• Power Supply and Enclosure (page 2)
• Card Readers (page 2)
• Door Accessories (page 3)
SA3000 CONTROLLER
The SA3000 Controller boards process card information to determine access

privileges defined in its local cardholder database. Transactions are stored in
non-volatile memory until transferred to BbTS. This architecture allows the
SA3000 to operate normally when offline.
POWER SUPPLY AND ENCLOSURE
New installations must be ordered with a Power Supply and Enclosure. The
Enclosure has a hinged, locking door and a tamper switch.
“Controller Unit” refers to the SA3000 Controller, Power Supply, and Enclosure.
CARD READERS
In addition to the Controller Unit, one or more Card Readers must be installed.
Card Readers are ordered separately from the SA3000 Controller Unit, allowing flexibility in Card Reader
selections to meet the application requirements.

January 28, 2008
DOOR ACCESSORIES
in addition to the Controller Unit and Card Readers, Door Accessories are required to complete the
SA3000 System to monitor and control access at the door. Door Accessories include door locking
mechanisms, door monitor contacts, request-to-exit switches, alarms, etc.
Door Accessories are not available through Blackboard. Ask a door hardware dealer about locking
mechanism options and compliance issues.

CARD READERS
MAGSTRIPE READERS
Two magstripe reader models are available in the SA3000 System.

Both have rugged metal construction and tamper and weather
protection to withstand the abuse of high-traffic environments. Readers
mounted outdoors can be further protected from weather with an
optional visor.
The SE3/CS is a single-function Card Reader with a vertical

continuous swipe-through card slot. The narrow design allows
mounting to a door frame or mullion.
The SE3/CSPP Reader can be configured to require users to enter a

PIN with a card swipe for enhanced security. It mounts to a single gang
box or a wall.
Figure 6:SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP

PROXIMITY READERS
Two models of Proximity Readers are also available for the SA3000
System.
Proximity Readers are only supported on SA3000 series

controllers in BbTS Universal Edition.
EXISTING SA2000 READER SUPPORT
The SA3000 Controller Unit supports the SACS and SASPP legacy Card

January 28, 2008
SA3000 INSTALLATION
CARD READER OPERATION
Magstripe Readers require the user to swipe a card. Proximity Readers require the user bring a card into
range of the Reader. Both Readers read the encoded information on the card and transmit the information
to the Controller Unit.
BbTS Universal Edition Systems only support the 78-bit Proximity card format.
The Controller Unit compares the card information to its internal database to determine if the card has
access privilege at the door. If valid, the Card Reader turns on the VALID lamp. If invalid, the Card Reader
turns on the DENIED lamp. If an error is encountered while reading the card, the Card Reader turns on the
ERROR lamp. In this case, the user must re-swipe the card.
Both the SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP Readers can be configured to generate tones. If access is allowed, the
Reader generates a valid tone. If access is denied or in the case of an error, it generates a warble tone.
CARD READER MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
When selecting a location to mount the Card Reader, consider the following:
• Will a cardholder be injured if the door is opened while swiping a card?

• Where will the Card Reader get the most protection from the weather? Is a Protective Visor neces-
sary?
• Where is the most convenient place for the cardholder to swipe a card?
• How will electrical cables be routed from the Controller Unit to the Card Reader?
• Does installation height meet federal / local height requirements (such as ADA)?

January 28, 2008
SE3/CS INSTALLATION
SE3/CS I NSTALLATION
The SE3/CS Card Reader can be installed on a door frame, mullion or wall, wherever space
constraints require a narrow Card Reader.
A decorative shroud is available for use with a surface mounted single gang box. Consider
installing a protective visor if the Card Reader will be exposed to inclement weather.
Two mounting plate models are available for this model and sold separately. The narrow
mounting plate has the same profile as the Reader (see page 12). A wide mounting plate
mounts to a single gang box, flush or surface mounted on a wall (see page 13). Either
mounting plate is used to mount a protective visor, although a wide mounting plate provides
more stability. If using a decorative shroud and a visor, two mounting plates are required (see
SE3/CS Mount w/ Shroud & Visor (page 14)).
The table below lists the model numbers of SE3/CS accessories.
Table 5: SE3/CS Card Reader Accessories

Model # Description
SE3/MPN Narrow mounting plate (for door mullion)
SE3/MPW Wide mounting plate (for single gang box)
SE3/DS Decorative shroud (conceals low profile surface mounted single gang box, requires SE3/MPW) *
SE3/VISOR Visor (for protection from inclement weather, requires SE3/MPN or SE3/MPW) a
a. If decorative shroud and visor are both used, a second wide mounting plate is required.
SE3/CS wiring requires Belden 8723 cable or equivalent from the SE3/CS to the Door
Controller. Cable length must not exceed 4000 feet.
Mount and Wire the SE3/CS using Narrow Mounting Plate

The narrow mounting plate is secured using three holes (two slotted and one regular) with #6 hardware
(Figure 8). Select hardware based on the mounting material.
1 Use the mounting plate as a template to mark mounting
holes and cable routing hole.
Put the cable hole near the center of the mounting plate
window.
2 Drill the holes for the mounting hardware (#6 screws) and
the cable. See Figure 8.
3 Secure the mounting plate with the chosen hardware.
If using a protective visor, install it behind the mounting
plate.
In outdoor installations, use a bead of silicone sealer
between the mounting plate and the installation surface to
protect the Reader from moisture.
4 Pull cable through hole and wire to 5-pin terminal block, per
Figure 11 on page 14. Figure 8: SE3/CS Installatio

7 Tighten the screw at the bottom of the mounting plate to secure the Reader.
If a second SE3/CS or SE3/CSPP reader is installed, wire the Readers in parallel. Connect a
jumper wire across pins 2 and 5 of the terminal block to configure the second reader. The
jumper configures the Reader address to allow communication on a half-duplex RS-485 bus
so both will not transmit concurrently.
Mount and Wire the SE3/CS using Wide Mounting Plate

The wide mounting plate is secured to a single gang box using the center and lower holes (Figure 9).
The optional decorative shroud can only be used with the wide mounting plate.

4 Place SE3/CSPP on mounting plate and slide up to engage screws into the tapered slots.
5 Tighten the two screws at the bottom of the mounting plate to secure the Reader.
If a second SE3/CS or SE3/CSPP reader is installed, wire the Readers in parallel. Install a
jumper wire across pins 2 and 5 of the terminal block to configure the second reader. The
jumper configures the Reader address to allow communication on a half-duplex RS-485 bus
so readers do not transmit concurrently.

PROXIMITY READER INSTALLATION
PROXIMITY READER I NSTALLATION
The SA3000 Controller Unit can support up to two Proximity Readers.

Proximity Reader ranges are dependent on the installation materials, as
described in the manufacturer’s installation manual. Model numbers for the
supported Proximity Readers are listed in the table below:
Proximity Readers are only supported on SA3000 series

controllers in BbTS Universal Edition.
Table 7: Proximity Reader Model Numbers

Model # Description
SE3/PROXMR Proximity Reader - Medium Range (HID ProxPro Model 5355)
SE3/PROXLR Proximity Reader - Long Range (HID MaxiProx Model 5375)
Reference the manufacturer’s manual for Proximity Reader installation and mounting
instructions.
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
• Mount at least six inches away from any metallic surface 12" x 12" or larger
Large adjacent metals, especially iron, steel, or copper, diminish the card read range.
• Use a plastic gang box and conduit
• Do not use metal hardware within two inches of the back of the reader.
• Do not mount the Proximity Reader in areas of high vibration.
PROXIMITY READER SETTINGS

All DIP-switches in the readers should be set to the factory default positions. (Reference the
manufacturer’s manual for default settings.)
The TAMPER SELECT from the Proximity Reader must be configured as a Normally-Closed
contact.
Wire the Proximity Reader(s)

1 Mount Proximity Reader using manufacturer’s installation instructions.
In outdoor installations, use a bead of silicone sealer between the mounting plate and the installation
surface to protect the Reader from moisture.
2 Route wire from the Proximity Reader to the Controller Unit using Belden 9540 cable or equivalent.
The Weigand interface module required on the SA2000 System is no longer required.
3 Connect wiring between the Proximity Reader and the Door Controller TB1 and/or TB2 terminal block
using Table 8 and Table 9 as a guide for wire terminations.
TB1 and TB2 terminal blocks each support a single Proximity Reader. If two Proximity
Readers are installed, both TB1 and TB2 must be used.

January 28, 2008
PROXIMITY READER INSTALLATION
The DC voltage supply from the Door Controller to the Reader is +12 VDC. If your
Proximity Reader requires +24 VDC, use an external power supply.
4 See Controller Unit Configuration (page 28) for configuring the Door Controller to operate with the
Proximity Reader(s).

WIRING TO EXISTING SACS AND SASPP
WIRING TO E XISTING SACS AND SASPP
SACS and SASPP Card Readers (not evaluated by UL) can be used when upgrading a SA2000 System to
use the SA3000 Controller boards. Some minor wiring changes are required, but these changes need only
be made at the Controller Unit. The existing Card Readers do not need to be removed. If Proximity
Readers were used with the SA2000 System, the Weigand interface module must be removed. The
SA3000 Controller Unit now interfaces directly with Proximity readers.
The Door Controller only supports one SASPP Reader.

SASPP Readers cannot be used in combination with SE3/CS or SE3/CSPP Readers.
Wiring the SACS

The new interface eliminates three wires originally used in the SA2000 System. The remaining wires
terminate at different positions on the Door Controller terminal block(s).
1 Rewire the original terminal block in the Controller Unit per the pertinent wiring diagram (Figure 14).
Wiring colors are shown for both Belden 9540 and 9541 cable. If different wiring was used, remove the
SACS Reader and compare the wiring on the terminal block.
2 Verify conductor connections are equivalent to those shown.
The signals for the SACS Reader are identical on the Door Controller’s TB1 and TB2 terminal blocks.

DOOR MONITOR CONTACTS
DOOR ACCESSORIES
This section covers wiring instructions for non-Blackboard Door Accessories.
The SA3000 System requires Door Accessories to provide access control and door monitoring. Door
Accessories selections are based on the requirements for each application. Door Accessories supported
by the SA3000 are:
• Door Monitor Contacts

• Door Locking Mechanism
• Request-to-Exit device
• Local Alarm
All Door Accessories must be UL listed to maintain UL compliance of the SA3000

System.
DOOR MONITOR CONTACTS
Door Monitor Contacts are used for door status or forced or held alarm reporting. The Door Monitor
Contacts signal the Controller Unit that the door is open or closed. There are several types of Door Monitor
Contacts commercially available. Purchase the Door Monitor Contacts that best suit the application and
install using the manufacturer’s instructions.
Wire Door Monitor Contacts
1 Route wire from Door Monitor Contacts to the Controller Unit.
2 Connect wires to Door Monitor Contacts.
3 At the Door Controller, test the contacts with an Ohm meter and verify the circuit is less than 100 Ohms
when the door is closed and an open circuit when the door is open.
The door contact wires cannot be connected to the Controller Unit while performing this test.
4 Connect the wires from the Door Monitor Contact to Door Controller TB4, positions 7 and 8.
Reference Figure 22: Controller Boards (page 41) for terminal block locations.

January 28, 2008
REQUEST-TO-EXIT DEVICES
REQUEST - TO -EXIT DEVICES
Request-to-Exit devices signal the Controller Unit that a valid door opening will occur, preventing a forced
alarm. In cases where a separate Card Reader is used to exit and enter, an exit device is not required
because the Card Reader provides the exit detection functionality.
Common Request-to-Exit devices include:

• motion detectors
• crash bar with request-to-exit switch
• push-to-exit button
Purchase the Request-to-Exit device that best suits the application and install using the manufacturer’s
instructions.
The Request-to-Exit device must provide a Normally Open circuit which closes when
activated.
Wire Request-to-Exit Device
The Door Controller can supply 24VDC (Door Controller TB3, pins 1 and 2) to the
Request-to-Exit device, if required.
1 Route wire from Request-to-Exit device to the Controller Unit.
2 Connect wires to the Request-to-Exit device according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3 At the Door Controller, test the device with an Ohm meter. Verify the circuit is less than 100 Ohms
when the Request-to-Exit device is active and an open circuit when not active.
The device cannot be connected to the Door Control board while performing this test.
4 Connect the wires from the Request-to-Exit device to Door Controller TB4, positions 3 and 4.
Reference Figure 22: Controller Boards (page 41) for terminal block locations.

January 28, 2008
DOOR LOCKING MECHANISMS
DOOR L OCKING MECHANISMS
Door Locking Mechanisms are electronic hardware devices activated by the Controller Unit to lock/unlock
a door. Common Door Locking Mechanisms include:
• electric strikes
• magnetic locks
• crash bars and locksets with electronic latch retraction
Terms commonly associated with door locking mechanisms are:

• Fail-Safe means that the door locking mechanism is unlocked when there is no electricity available.
• Fail-Secure means that the door locking mechanism is locked when there is no electricity available.
• Normally-Open and Normally-Closed contacts are provided by the Door Controller for the Door
Locking Mechanism.
Verify compliance with all applicable codes before purchasing door hardware.
For lock circuitry that is installed and configured as "fail secure", UL-listed panic
hardware shall be used to allow emergency exit from the protected area.
Purchase the Door Locking Mechanism that best suits the application and install using the manufacturer’s
instructions.
POWERING THE DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM
The Controller Unit can supply 24VDC (Door Controller TB3, pins 1 and 2) to the Door Locking
Mechanism, if required. This output is fused by FS1. If the fuse must be replaced, install a 2AG style, 1.5
Amp Slo-blow. See “Specifications” on page 40. for maximum current rating of the 24 VDC output.
The combined current for ALL devices connected to the 24 VDC output must NOT
exceed the maximum 1 Amp current rating.
Devices that require more than 1.5 Amp current require an external power supply. An example of such a
device is a crash bar with electronic latch retraction. Wiring of this device can be seen in Figure 16.

January 28, 2008
Wire the Door Locking Mechanism
1 Route wire from Door Locking Mechanism to the Controller Unit.
2 Connect wires to the Door Locking Mechanism according to manufacturer’s installation instructions.
When wiring to an inductive device, such as an electric strike or magnetic lock, install a protection
diode across the wires as close as possible to the lock mechanism, as shown in Figure 16. The diode
protects the relay in the Door Controller and reduces EMI when the circuit is opened. Two diodes
(1N4003) are included in the hardware kit.
3 Connect the wires from the Door Locking Mechanism to the Door Controller.
Reference Figure 16 for wiring options.

as the Controller Unit to meet the requirements for a UL-294 rated configuration and must provide a
normally-closed output. Connect the monitoring device across the Door Controller's TB5 terminal block,
pins 3 and 4.
If not used, install a jumper wire across pins 3 and 4.
Battery Low Input
Battery Low Input (BATLOW) can be connected to an external monitoring device that detects when a
battery-backup system's battery is low. The external monitoring device must be located within the same
room (within a maximum of 20 feet) as the Controller Unit to meet the requirements for a UL-294 rated
configuration and it must provide a normally-closed output. Connect the monitoring device across the Door
Controller's TB5 terminal block, pins 5 and 6.
If not being used, install a jumper wire across pins 5 and 6.
Tamper Input
The Tamper Input (TAMPER) reports to the Host if the Enclosure’s door is open or closed. Connect the
wires of the plunger style switch mounted to the Enclosure to the Door Controller's TB5 terminal block, pins
7 and 8.
Tamper Relay Output
The Tamper Relay Output (TAMPER) can be connected to an alarm. The alarm must be located within the
same room as the Controller Unit to meet the requirements for a UL-294 rated configuration.
The normally-open output is activated when the TAMPER input is open, indicating the Enclosure door is
open, a serial card reader is not responding, or a proximity reader is indicating a tamper condition. The
Tamper Output is on the Door Controller's TB5 terminal block, pins 9 and 10.
Auxiliary Relay
The Auxiliary (AUX) Relay provides a mechanism to control a second lock (such as double doors with
separate locks) or to control an automatic door opener. It can be configured to operate in 'normal' or 'door
opener' mode. In 'normal' mode, the relay follows the state of the LOCK relay. In 'door opener' mode the
relay can be delayed, so the AUX relay is turned on after the LOCK relay is activated. This momentary
closure for activating a door opener can be configured (0.0 to 25.5 seconds). The length of time the AUX
Relay remains on, regardless of when the LOCK relay is turned off, can also be configured (0.0 to 25.5
seconds). The AUX Relay can be configured to activate for all card readers or for proximity readers only.
The AUX Relay outputs are located on Door Controller's TB3 terminal block, pins 8 (COM), 9 (NO) and 10
(NC).
Spare Input
The Spare Input (SPARE) will activate the Auxiliary Relay with a Door-Open-Request switch that provides
a normally-open contact. When the Spare Input is shorted, the LOCK and the AUX Relay will be activated.
This is useful with an automatic door opener. If the Request-to-Exit is activated without the Spare Input
being activated, the Auxiliary Relay will not cycle. The Spare Input is located on Door Controller's TB4
terminal block, pins 9 and 10.

NORMAL OPERATION
Each Door Controller relay has an associated LED that indicates when the relay is energized. The LEDs
are located in a row along the top of the board with a text legend identifying the associated relay. These
LEDs can be used to verify wiring is installed correctly. For example, the DOOR LED should be ON when
the door is in the open position.

CARD READERS
CARD R EADERS
The Card Readers (SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP) LED annunciators on the face of the unit will indicate an error
condition. Detectable error conditions and their identification are listed below:
VALID, DENIED AND ERROR ANNUNCIATORS BLINKING
The SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP Card Readers will flash the VALID, DENIED and ERROR annunciators
simultaneously when software has been corrupted in Flash memory. The Card Reader must be returned to
Blackboard for repair.
DENIED ANNUNCIATOR BLINKING
The SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP Card Readers DENIED annunciator blinks (approximately 1 second rate)
when communication is lost with the Controller Unit. If the DENIED annunciator is flashing, check the
following:
• Verify the Controller Unit has been configured to interface to the SE3/CS and SE3/CSPP Readers, ref-
erence Controller Unit Configuration (page 28).
• If two Card Readers are installed, verify one reader has a jumper wire installed across pins 2 and 5 of
its terminal block.
• Verify the wiring between the Door Controller board and the Card Reader is terminated as shown in
Figure 11: SE3/CS Wiring (page 14) or Figure 13: SE3/CSPP Wiring (page 16).
NO ANNUNCIATION AFTER CARD SWIPE
One annunciator will always turn on after a card swipe. If no annunciator turns on after a card swipe, the
Reader may have corrupted software or the read head is not operating correctly.
To check software integrity, cycle power to the Reader. The annunciators should turn ON and OFF in
sequence, followed by four tones, indicating the Reader has successfully executed its power-up
initialization code.
If the power-up initialization is successful, the read head may be damaged.
POWER INDICATOR IS OFF
If the Power indicator located near the bottom of the Reader remains off when power is applied, verify the
voltage being supplied to the Reader is +12 Volts (Pin 1 = +12V, Pin 2 = GND).

SA3000 S E C U R I T Y A C C E S S S Y S T E M F E A T U R E S
• Card Readers can be ordered separately from the Controller for more flexibility.
• Supports 10/100Base-T communication with the NP for faster HS downloads in addition to RS-485
Multi-drop.
• The SA3000 supports 2 Card Readers (with or without PIN pad) and 2 Proximity Readers. The
Weigand interface module is no longer required to support Proximity readers.
• The SA3000 Controller consists of 2 boards (Master Controller and Door Controller). The boards
include status LEDs and a 4x20 LCD for displaying configuration and status information (no DIP
switches).
• Supports legacy SACS and SASPP Readers, allowing SA2000 system upgrades without replacing
Card Readers.
• Supports multi-plans in the downloaded cardholder database for off-line operation.
• Allows continued operation while downloading a new cardholder database. It will continue to operate if
it goes off-line during an HS download.
• The SA3000 enclosure has a locking/hinged lid with a tamper switch.
• The new SE3/CS Card Reader (without PIN pad) is approximately 1.5” shorter than the SACS.
• New Card Readers can generate valid/denied tones. Tones can be enabled or disabled through config-
uration options.
• New Card Readers use a 4-wire interface to the Controller.
• Enhanced tamper reporting include Controller Enclosure OPEN and Card Reader TAMPERED/
REMOVED (SE3/CS, SE3/CSPP, SASPP and HID prox).
• All components (Master Controller, Door Controller, and SE3/CS, and SE3/CSPP card slots) are in-
system re-programmable for future enhancements.
• The SA3000 does NOT support “learn mode”. An HS download is the only way to add/delete/change
cards in the downloaded table for off-line operation.
