LC 1200 Manual System Maintenance & Testing 15-3
Zone, Egress Test
(3000 and 3101 Magnetic Locks)
Most monitored door zones equipped with
Locks are configured to generate an alarm if a
Tag is detected in the zone and the door is open.
This test will evaluate this operation.
NOTE:
In the event of a fire, all Locks are
disabled and the door can be opened
immediately.
This test should be conducted selectively; create
a rotating schedule to test a different set of zones
each time that periodic testing is conducted.
Test results should be written down and kept in a
test log. Make your own, or use the included, to
ensure that every monitored zone is tested.
These test reports should become part of your
permanent quality assurance records.
1. Notify staff and security that you will be
testing zone performance and alarms
will be generated. They should pay
special attention to traffic during this
time.
2. Prop the door open.
3. While not in the zone, use a TAD to
activate the test Tag.
4. Approach the door. An alarm should
sound.
5. Record the results (pass or fail).
6. If the test fails to cause an alarm:
a. Notify staff and security of the
vulnerable area.
b. Check for visible damage or
tampering to the zone equipment.
c. Have a maintenance technician
verify power to the zone equipment
d. Have a maintenance technician
verify the FPI is set properly
e. Call your Accutech Representative.
7. To reset the zone, enter a Keypad reset,
deactivate the test Tag, and close the
door completely, and if necessary, clear
the alarm on the PC.
Zone, Delayed Egress Test
(3101 Magnetic Locks only)
Delayed Egress Circuitry is a feature of the
Accutech 3101 Magnetic Lock that, due to fire
and life safety codes, allows free egress through
a door after 15 seconds (plus a 1 to 3 second
nuisance delay) of constant force is applied. This
test will evaluate this operation.
NOTE:
In the event of a fire, Delayed Egress
Circuitry is disabled and the door can be opened
immediately.
This test should be conducted selectively; create
a rotating schedule to test a different set of zones
each time that periodic testing is conducted.
Test results should be written down and kept in a
test log. Make your own, or use the included, to
ensure that every monitored zone is tested.
These test reports should become part of your
permanent quality assurance records.
