Commercial IP Access Control | 20 Programmable Dry Contact Relays | Remote Door Release | Multi-Tenant Integration

The Aiphone IXGW-LC-RY20 Network Door Release Relay Adaptor is a professional-grade, network-based relay interface designed for integration with compatible Aiphone IXG Series IP Multi-Tenant Video Intercom Systems.

Featuring 20 programmable Form C dry contact relays, the IXGW-LC-RY20 provides remote door-release functionality when paired with compatible Aiphone IXG-DM7-HID and IXG-DM7-HIDA video entrance stations.

Each relay can be assigned to a specific entrance station and programmed to activate when an authorized tenant initiates a door-unlock command. This allows property managers and security integrators to control multiple building entrances using the Aiphone intercom system.

Designed for apartment buildings, condominiums, commercial office towers, mixed-use properties, and high-rise facilities, the IXGW-LC-RY20 provides flexible integration with compatible electronic locking hardware and access control equipment.

Supporting up to 16 lift control and relay adaptors combined per building, the IXGW-LC-RY20 provides a scalable solution for properties with multiple secured entrances.

Its compact design, flexible wall or DIN rail mounting, and IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectivity simplify installation within commercial security and network equipment environments.

Remote Door Release & Control Functions

The Aiphone IXGW-LC-RY20 provides programmable relay outputs that allow compatible Aiphone intercom stations to initiate connected access control functions.

1. Remote Door Release

When a tenant authorizes entry through a compatible IXG-DM7-HID(A) entrance station, the programmed IXGW-LC-RY20 relay activates, allowing connected access control equipment to release the appropriate entrance door.

2. Multiple Entrance Control

Each of the 20 relays can be assigned to a designated compatible entrance station, allowing a single adaptor to provide control signals for multiple secured entrances.

3. Multi-Tenant Access Management

The relay adaptor integrates with compatible Aiphone IXG Series systems, allowing authorized tenant actions to activate programmed outputs.

4. Elevator Control Integration

The IXGW-LC-RY20 supports compatible elevator access control functions through its programmable relays. Additional elevator controller equipment and proper system programming are required.

5. Expanded Building Control

A building can support up to 16 combined IXGW-LC and IXGW-LC-RY20 adaptors, providing additional programmable relay capacity for larger installations.

IXGW-LC-RY20 vs. IXGW-LC

Although the IXGW-LC-RY20 shares many features with the standard IXGW-LC Elevator Lift Control Adaptor, the primary difference is the timing of the programmed pickup-floor relay output.

• IXGW-LC: The programmed pickup-floor relay activates when a visitor places a call, allowing a compatible elevator controller to begin bringing an elevator to the pickup floor.

• IXGW-LC-RY20: The programmed pickup-floor relay activates when the tenant presses the door-unlock button, allowing the adaptor to function as a remote door-release relay.

Important: The IXGW-LC and IXGW-LC-RY20 are different factory-configured models and cannot be converted into each other in the field.
