Wiring for Brivo & Farpointe OSDP Readers

Wiring for Brivo & Farpointe OSDP Readers

Overview

Instead of using the READER 1/2 ports on the ACS-300, OSDP readers use the port labeled RS-485, located next to the READER 1 port. In the diagram, this is located in the top-right of the controller. However, your configuration may vary, so please verify the port by checking for the RS-485 label silkscreened onto the board, or a paper label with OSDP READER (or similar) applied by Latitude Security Solutions.

For most OSDP devices sold by Latitude Security Solutions,
  1. RXD+ connects to the GREEN reader wire

  4. 12VDC connects to the RED reader wire
Please refer to the reader's documentation to confirm these connections.
