Command Access PS210 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access PS210 run a motorized latch retraction exit device?
Yes. The PS210 is a regulated linear supply rated 1.5A at 24VDC, and the linear design is what gives you the inrush current a motor or solenoid driven exit device needs to pull the latch back. Command Access lists it for electric locks, motor or solenoid driven exit devices, electric strikes, and magnetic locks. Size it against the total draw of what you are hanging on it: 1.5A is one device with headroom, not a bank of them. For a multi-door mag lock run you want more amperage than this box holds.
2) Does the Command Access PS210 tie into the fire alarm so the mag locks drop on alarm?
There is a fire alarm link on the PS210 for exactly that, along with a solid-state input trigger that protects the system relays from shorts, grounds, and surges. That trigger is how you switch the output from an access control panel or card reader relay without exposing dry contacts to a lock coil's surge.
3) How many doors will a 1.5 amp 24VDC power supply like the PS210 handle?
The PS210 has one PTC-fused output rated 1.5A at 24VDC, so plan on it serving a single opening, or a couple of low-draw strikes whose combined continuous draw stays under that. One output also means no per-door fusing or independent control, everything on it powers together. If you need distribution to multiple doors, the RCI DKPS-2A gives 8 outputs at 12/24VDC 2A, and the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB is a power supply and access power controller with 8 PTC outputs at 24VDC 10A from a 115VAC 60Hz input.
4) What is the closest equivalent to a Command Access PS210 if I need a 1.5 amp regulated supply from another brand?
The Command Access PS210 delivers 1.5A at 24VDC. The closest match on rating is the SDC 631 Series, a 1.5 amp regulated and filtered DC power controller with dual voltage selection. The difference is that the SDC 631 is dual voltage selectable, while the PS210 is a fixed 1.5A at 24VDC linear unit with boost circuitry for latch retraction inrush. ROFU also builds a 9126T mini power supply at 12 VDC / 1.5A with time delay, but that one is a plug-in unit at 12 volts, so it is not an option where 24VDC is required.
5) I need more than 1.5 amps at 24 volts for a bank of maglocks - what should I use instead of the PS210?
The PS210 tops out at 1.5A at 24VDC, which is sized for a small number of electric locks, strikes or a motorized exit device. For a larger DC load, the SDC 634 Series is a 4 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection, and the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB is a power supply and access power controller taking 115VAC 60Hz input at 4.2A and producing 24VDC at 10A across 8 PTC outputs. The Altronix also distributes power to multiple protected outputs, where the PS210 has one PTC fused output.
6) Is a switching power supply like the Securitron AQD1 a drop-in substitute for the PS210?
They cover similar loads but are built differently. The PS210 uses a regulated linear design chosen specifically to supply ample inrush and hold current for latch retraction. The Securitron AQD1 is a switching power supply rated 12/24 VDC at 1 amp, and the AQL4 is a switching supply at 12/24VDC, 4/3 amp. Where the load is a motorized or solenoid driven exit device with a high momentary inrush, the linear design of the PS210 is the reason it is specified; for a steady draw such as a strike or maglock, a switching unit covers the same job.
7) Does the PS210 have battery backup for when the power goes out?
The PS210 is a 120VAC linear supply with a fire alarm link and one 24VDC output. If your spec calls for standby power at the door, look at a supply built with it: the Adams Rite PS-1 is a regulated 1 amp 12/24 VDC supply with battery backup, and the Detex 10-800 Series is a universal logic controller with a 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup. Note that mag locks on an egress door generally must release on alarm regardless, so backup is a continuity decision, not a life-safety one.
8) Can I mount a PS210 in an unconditioned mechanical room or parking garage?
Operating range is 0 to 49 degrees C (32 to 120 degrees F) with humidity to 85 percent maximum. That covers a mechanical room or an interior garage wall in most climates, but it rules out a location that drops below freezing or sees condensing humidity. Somewhere on the warm side of a freezing loading dock, not on the dock itself.
9) What does the boost circuitry on the PS210 actually do for latch retraction?
Boost circuitry on the PS210 is what covers the current spike when a motorized or solenoid exit device fires. A motor latch retraction pulls far more current for a fraction of a second than it holds at, and a supply sized only to the holding figure browns out and the latch never fully retracts. The regulated linear design plus boost supplies that inrush, then settles back to the 1.5A at 24VDC continuous rating.
10) What is the difference between a linear power supply like the PS210 and a switching supply for access control?
Linear is the choice when the load is a lock that draws hard at the moment it fires. The PS210 is a regulated linear unit with boost circuitry, and Command Access calls out the inrush and hold current it delivers for latch retraction. Switching supplies run cooler and are usually smaller for the same amperage, which suits steady loads like readers, panels, and mag locks; Securitron's AQD1 (12/24 VDC 1 Amp), AQL4 (12/24VDC 4/3 Amp), and AQS1210 (12 VDC 10 Amp) are switching units in that vein. If you are feeding a motorized exit device, stay linear.
11) What input power does an electrician need to bring to the PS210?
A 120VAC, 60Hz circuit. Internally the PS210 is protected by a 2 amp fuse rated at 250VAC. Terminations are easy-to-remove euro connectors, so the low voltage side can be landed on the bench and plugged in at the box, and there are 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch knockouts on all sides for the line-side conduit.
12) How do I tell if a PS210 is dead or if the problem is downstream at the lock?
Two LEDs on the board split the diagnosis for you: red confirms AC power is present, green confirms DC output. Red on with no green points at the supply or a shorted output, since the PS210 has intelligent short circuit detection and one PTC-fused output that will fold back on a dead short in the wiring. No red at all sends you to the branch circuit. There is also a door mounted LED so you can check the box without pulling the cover.
13) Is the PS210 the right supply for a delayed egress exit device?
The PS210 is a general purpose 1.5A 24VDC linear supply for electric locks, strikes, mags, and motorized exit devices, not a device-specific controller. Delayed egress and certain manufacturer exit devices expect their own matched power module: BEST's PS161-6 is built for delayed egress exit devices with 120V input, 12/24V output and 6A capacity, and the BEST RPSMLR2 Series supply is made for motorized latch retraction exit devices. Match the exit device manufacturer's requirement first, then fall back to a general supply like the PS210 if the device only needs clean 24VDC.
14) I searched power supplies and got the ROFU 10305-LA - is that the same kind of product as the PS210?
No. The ROFU 10305-LA/10306-LA is a tamper resistant power transfer hinge rated 1.5A at 42V in a plastic white finish - it carries wiring from the frame into the door leaf, it does not generate power. The Command Access PS210 is the supply itself, converting 120VAC 60Hz line input to 1.5A at 24VDC. An electrified opening commonly uses both: the supply in the enclosure and a transfer device at the hinge.
15) What is the difference between the PS210 and a control module like the BEST ELR150?
The BEST ELR150 Series is a power supply control module for electronic access control - it manages and switches power for the connected devices. The Command Access PS210 is the power source, a 120VAC input linear supply producing 1.5A at 24VDC with one solid state input trigger, a fire alarm link and dual LED indicators for AC power and DC output. The Detex 10-800 Series combines both roles as a universal logic controller with its own 120VAC/24VDC supply.
16) Which supply should I standardize on for a facility running a lot of 12VDC card reader hardware?
The PS210 is a 24VDC unit at 1.5A, sized for a single opening or a small group of devices. For a 12 volt reader-based system, the Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a UL listed 12V DC 5A supply for AC Series access control kits, and the Securitron AQS1210 is a switching supply at 12 VDC, 10 amp. Both carry substantially more current on a single 12 volt bus than the PS210 provides at 24 volts, which suits running many devices from one enclosure.
17) Can I adjust the output voltage on the PS210 to make up for voltage drop on a long wire run?
Yes, there is an output voltage trim pot on the PS210. On a long low-voltage run to a lock, that lets you bring the voltage at the supply up slightly so the device still sees what it needs at the door. Trim it while measuring at the lock, not at the box, and remember it does not add current, the output stays 1.5A at 24VDC.
