Zone Conditioning
• Single Conditioning
• Double Conditioning—Door and Hallway
• Double Conditioning—Door with Lock(s)
• Double Conditioning—Elevator
• Double Conditioning—Automatic Door
Single Conditioning
Single conditioning zones react to tags in the
same way as all monitored zone types (e.g.,
door, hallway, elevator, automatic door).
With single conditioning, if an active tag enters
a monitored zone, the system will detect the
tag and generate a Door alarm. To clear this
alarm, remove the tag from the zone and enter
a valid code into the zone's keypad.
Double Conditioning – Door and Hallway
Double conditioning zones require two events
to occur before an alarm is generated.
In door zones: (1) a tag must be detected in
the zone, and (2) the door must be opened or
passive infrared (PIR) detection must occur.
In hallway zones: (1) a tag must be detected
in the zone and (2) passive infrared (PIR)
detection must occur.
To clear this alarm, remove the tag from the
zone and enter a valid code into the zone's
keypad.
Double Conditioning – Door with Lock(s)
Although most locks can be interfaced with
an LC1400 zone, the following instructions
are only applicable to an Accutech-supplied
3101 magnetic lock.
Important
If an active tag enters a monitored door zone,
the system will detect the tag. The magnetic
lock will then energize and lock the door
(provided the door is closed, has a magnetic
lock(s), and the lock is unobstructed). The lock
will remain locked for as long as the tag is in
the monitored zone. When the tag leaves the
monitored zone, the door will unlock after an
adjustable period of time.
Accutech’s 3101 magnetic locks also
incorporate delayed egress circuitry that
complies with N.F.P.A. 101 Life Safety Codes
5-2.1.6.1. If engaged, the lock will release
within 15 seconds (after a 1-3 second nuisance
delay) whenever a maintained force (equal
to or greater than a force set below 15lbs, as
required by NFPA) is applied to the door. An
audible tone signals both the countdown and
the release. When the lock releases, the red
LED will turn solid green and the lock alarm
will sound continuously; however, if the door
is not opened and the tag leaves the zone, the
audible tone will cease and the lock will return
to normal operation.
During a fire alarm event, or when power is
lost, all locks are disengaged and cannot be
reengaged until the fire alarm is cleared.
