The ESA control accepts dry-contact activation and inhibit/lock inputs that an access-control panel can drive. Wire the access-control relay output to the appropriate activation or “night/secure” input on the ESA terminal block, and observe the input’s expected normally-open / normally-closed state. Use the control’s mode/program settings to define how the door responds when access is granted vs. denied (e.g., remain locked until a valid credential closes the relay). Confirm voltage compatibility and isolate the access-control side with a relay rather than back-feeding voltage into the operator.
