RC-03 Jumper Configurations

The RC-03 PowerNet reader-controller has a set of jumper pins that configure both its input power source and its lock control circuit. The device can be configured for power to be supplied to it through the 12 conductor pigtail (either 12VDC or 24VDC) or through the RJ45 connector (Power Over Ethernet).

If PoE is used, the reader-controller can supply 12VDC through its pigtail which may be used to power the lock or other devices at the door location.

*The RC-03 has an additional set of jumpers. These jumpers should not be changed. The jumpers are set at the factory, based on the PowerNet’s internal hardware. If these jumpers are changed, the PowerNet will not operate correctly. If accidently moved, replace the jumpers to the positions shown.

The below image shows the components on the back of the RC-03:

RC-03 Jumper Configurations:

Feature	JP 1 Jumpers	JP 2 Jumpers
Input Power – 12VDC through Pigtail	1 to 3
Input Power – 24VDC through Pigtail	3 to 5 & 4 to 6
Input Power – PoE through RJ45 connector	None
Input Power – PoE through RJ45 connector (See Note 1)	1 to 3
Input Power – No effect, place-holder for extra jumper	2 to 4
Lock’s power/signal is externally supplied on the pigtail’s pink wire		None
Supply internal 12VDC to relay common (See Note 2)		1 to 3
ISONAS External Door Kit being used		3 to 4
Connect GROUND to relay’s common contact		3 to 5

Note 1 – Special case: The unit is PoE powered AND you want 12v output power supplied on the pigtail’s red conductor.
Note 2 – Used when powering an external lock device. This option only available if JP 1 is configured for PoE.
