User Activation and Passage Instructions
Follow the steps below on how to use the turnstile.
1.
The turnstile should always be in the “Home” position
before access is requested (i.e. an access control card
is presented to the card reader). If the turnstile is not in
the “Home” position, manually reposition the roto
section (the arms) to the “Home” position before
requesting access (Figure 30).
2.
Request access (i.e. present an access control card to
the card reader) and activate the turnstile. Listen for the
turnstile to unlock (the solenoid will “fire” and make a
clicking sound) and (if applicable) look for the green
activation light.
3.
Immediately step into the turnstile (Figure 31). Keeping
your arms extended, gently push on roto arm section
“A” and slowly walk through the turnstile (Figure 31).
Stay near the yoke and take short steps. Once you
have traveled through the passage area move out of
the way of the turnstile arms.
CAUTION
Never grab roto arm section “C” and pull it in front of
you. Doing this will result in the roto section stopping
suddenly (after rotating 120°) before you are all of the
way through the turnstile.
CAUTION
After walking through the turnstile, the turnstile arms will
continue to rotate, completing the 120° rotation. Taking
long steps could cause the trailing arm section to strike
your heels. Heel and arm guards are an option that can
be purchased from Alvarado.
4.
Step completely out of the turnstile.
CAUTION
If a patron does not complete the full rotation before the
predefined delay time-out period, the turnstile will
re-lock. Based upon the actual position of the patron
when the turnstile re-locks, the patron will either
complete the full rotation or will be required to back out
of the turnstile and initiate another entry access
request.
