7.0 Powering the Controller for the First Time
NOTE: Verify the earth ground has been connected at pin 3 of TB-2 before turning the power on for the first time.
7.1 Verify the 12 VDC Supply Voltage
To verify the 12 VDC supply voltage:
1. Turn system power on.
2. Set the DVM to a DC volt scale capable of reading 12 VDC.
3. Place the Red DVM lead on Pin 1 of TB-2.
4. Place the Black DVM lead on Pin 2 of TB-2.
5. Check the DVM reading. It should read +12 VDC +/- 2 volts.
If the DVM does not read 12 VDC (+/- 1.5 V), verify the power supply is of the correct voltage, verify the cable length
does not exceed 200 feet, and verify the cable gauge is AWG 18.
NOTE: On long power cable runs, keep in mind the resistance in the cable itself causes a drop in voltage at the end of the
run. The power supply must be able to account for this voltage drop.
8.0 Setup Controller
If you're turning system power on for the first time, certain tasks must be performed prior to entering access control
information from Doors. On the EntraGuard Platinum main board (see Figure 2 on page 2), hold the Reset Button (SW1)
down and turn the controller’s power on. After the controller beeps once, indicating the controller’s firmware is ready for
programming, release the SW1 button. The LCD on the front panel will display the Reset Menu (see Figure 27). From this
menu you may perform different tasks such as set the controller’s address, clear the controller’s memory, set the
microphone gain, check diagnostics, and set the LCD font.

NOTE: If no keys have been selected within 60 seconds, the unit will time out and go directly to the default message. In
order to reach the Reset Menu, the unit must be powered up again.
