Altronix AL1012ULACM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many doors can the Altronix AL1012ULACM control, and is each output switched independently?
The AL1012ULACM gives you eight independently controlled 12VDC outputs off a single 115VAC 60Hz input, with 10A of continuous supply current shared across them. Each output can be set fail-safe or fail-secure, so one board can run eight openings with a mix of mag locks (fail-safe) and electric strikes or electrified trim (fail-secure) on the same enclosure.
2) Will a 10 amp access power controller be enough for my door hardware load?
Budget by device draw. The AL1012ULACM supplies 10A total at 12VDC across its eight outputs, so the sum of everything energized at once (mag locks, strikes, electrified levers, readers fed from the board) has to stay under that. Mag locks typically sit in the several-hundred-milliamp range each, while motorized latch retraction devices pull a heavy inrush and are usually given a dedicated supply built for that duty.
3) Does the AL1012ULACM run at 24VDC, or is it 12 volts only?
12VDC only. The AL1012ULACM is a fixed 12-volt board rated 10A, not a field-selectable dual-voltage unit. If your hardware is 24V, look at a selectable supply instead such as the Von Duprin PS902, which is field selectable 12/24VDC at 2A, or the SDC 634 Series 4 amp supply with dual voltage selection.
4) Is this a plain power supply or an access power controller?
Both in one box. The AL1012ULACM is a power supply with a battery charger plus an access power controller section, so the access control system's relay outputs switch the eight door outputs directly instead of you wiring separate relay boards. A plain supply like the Securitron AQS1210 (12 VDC, 10 amp) gives you the power but no per-door switching.
5) What is the closest 12VDC 10 amp alternative to the Altronix AL1012ULACM?
The Securitron AQS1210 is a switching power supply rated 12 VDC at 10 amps, matching the AL1012ULACM's 10A continuous supply current at 12VDC. The difference is what happens downstream: the AL1012ULACM distributes that current through eight independently controlled fail-safe/fail-secure outputs with fused relay outputs and a charger in the enclosure, while the AQS1210 is described as a switching power supply without that multi-output access control switching. If you need the 10A and are feeding a separate access control board, the AQS1210 covers the power; if you are switching eight locks directly, stay with the AL1012ULACM.
6) I only need to power one or two electrified locks - is there something smaller than the AL1012ULACM?
Yes. For a single opening, the Command Access PS1 is a 24VDC linear power supply with 1 amp output, and the Securitron AQD1 is a 12/24 VDC switching supply at 1 amp. Stepping up slightly, the SDC 632 is a 2 amp regulated and filtered supply with dual voltage selection, and the Von Duprin PS902 is a 2A 12/24 VDC field selectable base power supply. The AL1012ULACM is built for a bank of doors - eight independently controlled outputs at a combined 10A - so on a one- or two-door job most of that capacity and output count goes unused.
7) What should I use instead of the AL1012ULACM if the openings run on 24VDC?
The AL1012ULACM converts 115VAC 60Hz into eight 12VDC outputs, so it is a 12-volt unit. For 24VDC openings, the BEST PS161-6 is a 120V input supply with 12/24V output at 6A capacity, the SDC 634 is a 4 amp regulated and filtered supply with dual voltage selection, and the Securitron AQL4 is a 12/24VDC switching supply rated 4/3 amps. For delayed egress exit devices specifically the PS161-6 is the one called out for that duty.
8) The RCI DKPS-2A also has 8 outputs - is it the same thing as the AL1012ULACM?
Both distribute power to eight outputs for access control, but the capacity is not comparable. The RCI DKPS-2A is rated 12/24VDC at 2A across its eight outputs, while the AL1012ULACM supplies 10A total at 12VDC through eight independently controlled fail-safe/fail-secure outputs. The DKPS-2A also offers a 24V selection that the AL1012ULACM does not. Count your lock current draw before treating one as a drop-in for the other.
9) What incoming power does the AL1012ULACM need at the panel?
Standard 120V branch circuit. The unit takes a 115VAC 60Hz input and is catalogued at 120V, so an electrician should land it on a dedicated unswitched circuit. Input draw is 2.6A.
10) Does the Altronix AL1012ULACM come in a cabinet, or do I have to buy an enclosure separately?
It ships as a complete assembly: grey enclosure, charger section for standby batteries, and the eight switched outputs. You add the batteries, the low-voltage wire, and whatever access control relay contacts or REX devices drive the outputs.
11) What is a smaller alternative if I only have one or two doors to power?
A 10A eight-output controller is oversized for a single opening. For one or two doors, the RCI DKPS-2A gives 8 outputs at 12/24VDC but only 2A, the Command Access PS204/204B is a 2A 24VDC linear supply with battery backup, and the Adams Rite PS-1 is a 1 amp 12/24VDC supply with battery backup. Step up to the AL1012ULACM when you need independent fail-safe/fail-secure control on several doors at once.
12) Will the AL1012ULACM run motorized latch retraction exit devices?
Motorized latch retraction devices draw a high inrush and are normally fed by a supply built for that duty - the BEST RPSMLR2 series is a power supply specifically for motorized latch retraction exit devices. The AL1012ULACM is a 12VDC access power controller delivering 10A across eight independently controlled fail-safe/fail-secure outputs, intended for switching electrified locking hardware rather than for MLR inrush. Specify the RPSMLR2 for the MLR devices and use the AL1012ULACM for the maglocks, strikes and electrified locksets on the rest of the openings.
13) Does the AL1012ULACM include battery backup, or do I need a different unit?
The AL1012ULACM ships with an enclosure, a charger and eight fused relay outputs, so battery charging is part of the unit. If you are comparing, the Adams Rite PS-1 is a 1 amp 12/24 volt DC regulated supply sold with battery backup, and the Command Access PS204/204B is a 2A 24VDC linear supply with battery backup - both at far lower current and without the eight-output switching the AL1012ULACM provides.
14) Is the ROFU 9126T a substitute for the AL1012ULACM?
No. The ROFU 9126T is a plug-in mini power supply rated 12 VDC at 1.5A with a time delay - a single-device unit for one strike or small load. The AL1012ULACM is a hardwired 115VAC 60Hz unit in a grey enclosure feeding eight independently controlled 12VDC outputs at 10A total with a charger on board. They share the 12VDC output voltage and nothing else about scale or installation.
15) Is the AL1012ULACM suitable for a commercial building, or is it a residential product?
It is built for commercial work, sold as door hardware for electronic access control. Typical uses are multi-door access systems in offices, schools, healthcare and multi-family where one enclosure feeds and switches every opening on a floor.
16) If I need logic and sequencing rather than just distributed power, what do I look at besides the AL1012ULACM?
The Detex 10-800 series is a universal logic controller packaged with a 120VAC/24VDC power supply and battery backup, and the BEST ELR150 is a power supply control module for electronic access control. The AL1012ULACM is a power supply and access power controller that gives you eight independently controlled 12VDC fail-safe/fail-secure outputs - switching per opening, fed from an access control system - rather than standalone logic and timing.
