Main Features Main features of iSTAR Edge include:
Storage
> 250k cards.
64 MB of RAM.
128 MB of onboard flash.
Power
Powered by
Ethernet connection: UL 294 Listed PoE or PoE Plus using optional add-on board
(edgePower). A UL Listed surge protector must be used with the PoE module. The PoE
board can supply either 12VDC or 24VDC to the relay outputs (selectable via a jumper
on the PoE board).
- or -
12/24V DC, from UL Listed apS power source or other UL 603 Listed, power-limited
power supply with appropriate ratings and a minimum 4 hours of standby power.
Provides up to 1.5A @ 12V unswitched to external devices:
Wiegand readers
RS-485 ports
Two 2-pin AUX power connectors for PIRs and motion sensors.
Provides power to relays:
Relays configurable to be wet or dry by jumper.
Wet Relays provide current at main input voltage (12 or 24V on PoE, 12 or 24V with
external DC supply).
Each wet relay is limited to 0.75A (at 12 or 24V).
Each dry relay is limited to 3.0A (at 12 or 24V).
Readers
2 or 4 readers total.
2 Wiegand connectors are available.
2 RMs are available to be configured for the 4 reader model to provide 4 Wiegand
connectors.
3 RS-485 serial ports are available.

3 RS 485 serial ports.
USB Ports
2 USB host ports. (These are the wide and flat USB connectors used by memory sticks,
used when the iSTAR Edge is the host of the attached devices.)
1 USB device port. (This is the square connector used when the iSTAR Edge itself is the
client device.) (not currently used)
The only use of USB in the first version is to import encryption keys, in the same way as
iSTAR eX.
Communications
One 10/100 Ethernet port.
No secondary communication path.
Full 256 bit AES encryption, as with iSTAR eX
Can cluster with other iSTAR Edges
Can cluster with iSTAR eXs
FAI
Fire Alarm Interlock - When the F input is true, FAI activates relays that are enabled for
FAI by individual enable switches.
Latch option is available by switch control. If the selected relays are latched, they will be
cleared to normal by the key (K) input.
Onboard controls
LCD with backlight for diagnostics.
Rotary switch for diagnostics, as with iSTAR eX.
LEDs for serial, Ethernet, power and relay state.
Two power LEDs: one super bright LED that is on when the enclosure door is closed,
and one green LED that is always on when main power is present.
Relay activation LEDs are not affected by enclosure door.
NOTE The following 4 inputs to the host are determined by the firmware. There is no actual
wiring to the iSTAR Edge board.
Overview and Introduction

All other LEDs only turn on when enclosure door is open.
Reset button.
Switches for serial termination of RM ports.
Switches for selection of relays for control by FAI.
Switch for FAI Latch.
Jumpers for relay wet/dry control.
Housing
Enclosure is similar to RM 4e enclosure.
Mountable in existing apC/L enclosure.
Compliance
FCC, CE, EN50133, UL60950 by CB Scheme (International Safety) & RoHS.
NOTE For all compatible devices, see the iSTAR Edge Installation and Configuration Guide
(Doc. No. UM-236).
Pre-Installation Planning

Pre-Installation Planning
Pre-installation involves the following:
1. Checking equipment (hardware, software, power supply, and wiring).
2. Checking power, wiring, equipment clearances, and code compliance at the site.
3. Ensuring the proper tools are available.
Equipment Check
Verify that the contents of the shipped boxes match the packing lists. Contact Software House
if any items are missing or damaged.
The iSTAR Edge hardware does not include mounting hardware for an installation. Mounting
hardware depends upon the site and must be approved by a structural engineer or other
certified professional.
Software House recommends anchoring systems capable of sustaining a 20 lb. load.
Site Check
Ensure that the mounting site is ready:
Mounting dimensions
• The can is 12” by 12” (30.48 x 30.48 cm)
• Upper mounting holes are 9" (22.86 cm) center to center.
• Bottom mounting holes are 10.5" (26.67 cm) below the upper mount holes.
The site has been approved and all wiring complies with UL requirements and other
codes, as appropriate.
All preliminary site work is complete.
An appropriate power supply is accessible.
The site is clean and free of dust or other contaminants.

Power Requirements
The standard iSTAR Edge uses a UL Listed 603 External Power Supply, such as the Software
House apS or uses a Power Over Ethernet (PoE) injector with UL listed surge protector.
To ensure adequate power, calculate the total power requirements of iSTAR Edge and its
related hardware, as follows.
Add the total current power for components in the system (modules, relays, optional
modules, readers, and wire resistance).
iSTAR Edge Components and Boards
Table 3 shows the power requirements of iSTAR Edge components and attached boards.
aRM-4 board has only been evaluated by UL with RM Series readers (RM 1,2,3)
bRM-4E boards have only been evaluated by UL for use with RM-DCM-2 enclosure.
iSTAR Edge Input Power Rating
The iSTAR Edge has the following input ratings when using an external power supply:
12 VDC, 3.8 A
24 VDC, 3.1 A
Individual/Total Loads
RS-485 Reader Power Outputs: 10.6-12.5 VDC, 1.5 A max each.
Wiegand Reader Power Outputs: 10.6-12.5 VDC, 350 mA max each.
Total of all Reader and AUX outputs combined (RS-485 & Wiegand) not to exceed 1.5 A
Four (4) activated relay coils = 100 mA, 25 mA/relay
One I/8 module – 12 VDC, total= 125 mA
One R/8 module – 12 VDC, total= 325 mA (125 ma + 25 mA for each active relay (max 4))
R/8 relay contact ratings – 30 VDC at 3A (resistive)
