The Honeywell PRO32IN is a high-density input interface module designed for use with the Honeywell Pro-Watch and WIN-PAK access control systems. This module provides 32 supervised input points, allowing for the centralized monitoring of a wide range of security and building automation sensors. By integrating door position switches, motion detectors, glass-break sensors, and environmental alarms into the access control architecture, the PRO32IN enhances situational awareness and allows for complex global I/O linking within the security network.

Product Usage Instructions
-
Mounting: Install the PRO32IN circuit board into a grounded metal enclosure (such as the Honeywell PRO-ENCL). Ensure the module is secured using the provided standoffs.
-
Addressing: Before applying power, set the unique hardware address using the rotary hex switches. This address must match the configuration in your Pro-Watch or WIN-PAK software.
-
Communication Wiring: Connect the RS-485 bus from the main intelligent controller (e.g., PW6000 or PRO3200) to the interface’s communication terminals. Use twisted-pair, shielded cable (Belden 9841 or equivalent).
-
Input Wiring: Connect field sensors to the 32 input terminals. For supervision, install the appropriate End-of-Line (EOL) resistors at the sensor end to detect line tampering or shorts.
-
Software Configuration: In the access control management software, add the PRO32IN as a sub-panel and define the function and alarm priority for each of the 32 inputs.
Q&A: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the PRO32IN control door locks? A: No. The PRO32IN is an input-only module. To control locks or other equipment, you would need the PRO32OUT (output module) or the PRO32R2 (dual reader/relay module).
Q: Can I use this module without End-of-Line (EOL) resistors? A: While it is possible to configure the inputs as “unsupervised” in the software, it is highly recommended to use EOL resistors to ensure the system can detect if a wire has been cut by an intruder.
Q: How many PRO32IN modules can I connect to a single controller? A: This depends on the specific main controller (e.g., PW6000), but generally, you can connect up to 32 downstream devices to a single RS-485 port.
Q: What do the LEDs signify? A: The red LED typically indicates power, while the green LED flashes to show active communication (polling) from the main intelligent controller.
