1 Safety

Warning!

Read instructions

Before working with the device, read these instructions carefully. Make sure you have

understood all information described in this document.

Caution!

Fire hazard and risk of electric shock due to unauthorized spare parts and accessories

Unauthorized spare parts and accessories might lack grounding wires or other safety

elements. External power supplies must be installed by qualified personnel. The service

technician must use replacement parts or accessories that are specified by the manufacturer.

Warning!

Risk of explosion of lithium battery

Replace the battery with the same type as recommended by Bosch.

Dispose used batteries according to the instructions of the manufacturer of the batteries.

Warning!

Risk of physical injury due to blocked escape routes

This product may block escape routes if not installed correctly. To keep escape routes free:

- Use locks in fail-safe mode, so that doors can be released if power fails.

- Install manual override switches, such as break-glass or lever stations, to unlock doors in an

emergency.

Notice!

Device damage due to incorrect mounting

Mount this product on the matching mounting rails.

If the device falls or is damaged, check it before the installation.

Notice!

Considerations on local regulations

When you install the device, consider any local fire, health and safety regulations.

Notice!

Device damage due to electrostatic discharge

Protect the hardware from electrostatic discharge, especially when the device is open and

exposed. Always disconnect the controller from the power source before modifying the

installation. This product does not support hot plugging.

Notice!

Unauthorized access

If this product is installed in an unprotected environment, unauthorized people may be able

to enter.

Install the product in a location with restricted access.

Notice!

Some features and functions described in this document depend on the firmware loaded into

the device and host software. Make sure that the controller is updated to the firmware

version provided with the host system.

This product is RoHS compliant. See Technical data for the full table of hazardous

components.

1.1 Unpacking

Check the packaging for visible damage. If anything has been damaged during transport,

please inform the transport agency.

Unpack the product carefully. This is an electronic device that must be handled with care to

1.2 FCC compliance

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. The limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed

and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Bosch Security Systems B.V. Installation manual 2022-03 | V03 |

2 Short information

The AMC2 can control a maximum of eight ID readers (depending on the reader type) and fully

processes the access logic at the assigned entrances.

The device controls a group of one to eight access points. These access points, also known as

entrances, can be:

– doors

– gates

– barriers

– turn stiles

– revolving doors

– mantraps

– ID card, PIN and biometric readers

– door opening elements

– sensors.

All the product versions use encrypted connections between the access modular controller

and the host system.

The controller stores all necessary information in a battery-buffered memory and in a compact

flash storage element. Even when the unit is offline, it is able to perform:

– Independent status and authorization checks on access points

– Take access decisions

– Activate and deactivate connected peripheral elements

– Detect and register all relevant events

The Access Modular Controller (AMC) is supported by the Access Professional Edition (APE),

BIS Access Engine (ACE) and the Access Management System (AMS).

3 Introduction

3.1 Description

The controller has four independent interfaces for RS-485 type readers. It can control a

maximum of four doors with a reader in each direction and a maximum of eight doors with a

reader in one direction only.

Figure3.1: Access Modular Controller

All necessary information for access verification is stored in a battery buffered on-board

memory and a Compact Flash (CF) memory card. This guarantees autonomous access

decisions and complete access registrations even if the management host system is offline.

The built in compact flash adapter provides adequate storage capability for cardholders and

events.

The electronics of the controller are completely covered by a plastic housing. The LCD (liquid

crystal display) provides all important status information.

Access Modular Controller 2 Introduction | en 9

Bosch Security Systems B.V. Installation manual 2022-03 | V03 |

The controller can communicate upstream to the host computer using one of the following

interfaces:

– Ethernet

– RS-485 multi-dropped, not supported by:

– BIS 4.9.1 and later

– AMS 4.0 and later.

The controller has eight analog input devices and eight relay outputs. With its analog input

devices, the controller verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open. The relay outputs can

be used, for example, to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or activate the burglar

alarm system if an intrusion or system alert is detected. If the eight inputs and eight outputs

on the board are not enough to configure the system, up to three additional extension boards

can be connected. The extensions offer 8 or 16 additional inputs and outputs.

In the Bosch Access Host Systems, the setup procedure for a controller is made very simple

and fast by the use of door templates. Once selected, all the inputs and outputs are

predefined. These settings can be changed to choose every free contact of the controller or a

connected extension.

2 Lithium battery for buffering of static RAM and real time clock (RTC). The battery life

is estimated at 10 years, nevertheless an error message is generated if the voltage

sinks below a preset minimum level.

NOTICE: In order to avoid an error message caused by an earlier voltage drop we

suggest to replace the battery every 8 years. Spare part: VARTA CR 2032 PCB.
