Verkada AC41 is capable of supporting Verkada Readers over RS-485 and standard wiegand readers.
The following diagram shows the wire types that are recommended for use with the Verkada AC41.
We recommend using one twisted pair for GND and VIN (power) and one twisted pair for the data (D0/D1 or A/B).
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Required Network Settings
With the AC41, you must use shield wiring:
• Connect the drain (bare metal) wire from the reader to the drain (bare metal) wire in the shielded cabling.
Then, connect the drain wire in the cabling to Earth ground.
• The other end of the drain wire shouldn’t be connected to anything.
An Ethernet connection with DHCP must be used to connect the AC41 to the Local Area Network (LAN).
You also need to congure rewall settings to communicate with the AC41.
• TCP port 443
• UDP port 123 (NTP time synchronization)

1. Disconnect the mount
To remove the wall mount, unscrew the two
security torx screws from the inside.
2. Remove the mount
Once the security screws are fully removed, slide
the wall mount down and away from the main
enclosure.
3. Install the mount
Drill four 5/16” Ø holes into the wall. Insert the
drywall anchors into the holes. Fasten the mount
plate onto the wall by installing the mounting
screws into the wall anchors.

Connecting a Door
Installation
Ensure power is disconnected from the AC41 and locking hardware before wiring, removing or inserting
cassettes, readers, locks or any other peripherals.
Warning
The AC41 comes equipped with a Form C relay that can be driven dry or wet. AC41 is rated to power 12V locks
up to 700mA and 24V locks up to 350mA.
1. Wiring Fail Secure and Fail Safe Locking
Hardware
Fail secure and fail safe are ways of conguring
locking hardware:
• Fail secure hardware locks when power is
interrupted. Usually uses NO (Normally Open
Conguration)
• Fail safe hardware unlocks when power is
interrupted. Usually uses NC (Normally Closed
conguration)
2. Remove the Cassettes
Begin by removing a door cassette from the
AC41 by lifting it from the side tabs.
Dry
The AC41 does not provide power to the locking hardware (typically used with external power supplies).
Wet
The AC41 provides 12V or 24V power to the locking hardware.

Connecting a Door
Installation
3a. Connect the Lock (Dry)
When using an Access Power Controller (APC) which uses a dry contact, ensure that “NONE” is selected on
the door power selection switch.
3b. Connect the Lock (Wet)
In a Wet conguration, ensure that power selection
for each door is set to the correct voltage as
outlined by the locking hardware specications.
• Set it to “12VDC” for 12 Volt locking hardware
• Set it to “24VDC” for 24 Volt locking hardware
The AC41 is rated to power 12V locks up to 700mA
and 24V locks up to 350mA.
Fail Safe
LOCK (+) positive goes into NC
LOCK (-) negative and ground wire goes into COM
Fail Secure
LOCK (+) positive goes into NO
LOCK (-) negative and ground wire goes into COM
When connecting the lock in the WET
conguration, ensure the negative of the
lock goes into the COM port as shown in the
diagrams below.
