The MC29 function provides a sequence for Relay 1 and/or Relay 

2 triggered by Input 1 or ‘WET’ Input.  Additionally Input 2 provides 

a door position switch input which allows the Relay 1 to deactivate 

once Input 2 is opened after the sequence has run.   Input 2 also 

allows the delay to run when Input 2 is opened, but not run when 

closed, as in the MC28.  Input 3 provides an input to disable the 

sequence whose logic is also selectable.   Simply put Relay 1 will 

be active the entire time until the normally opened door position 

switch signifies that the door has come closed again.   

Adjustable 

parameters include 

H1

 for activation hold time of Relay 1 after the 

door position switch has closed, 

H2

 for activation hold time of Relay 

2, 

D1

 for delay between activation of Relay 1 to Relay 2 and 

RL

 for 

reverse logic for Input 3.

NOTE

:  The delay timer will only fire one time during initial activation 

or maintained input.

NOTE:  The door position switch must have an opened contact 

when the door is closed, and a closed contact when it is not. 

(Position switch logic is different than 21, 22, 50 and 55.) 

A typical application is a security door in which you have a push-

plate to start the sequence to unlock the Maglock, which you would 

want unlocked for the entire sequence until the door becomes 

closed again, then activate the door controller and an additional 

door position switch.  For this scenario the push-plate would be 

wired to Input 1, the position switch would be wired to Input 2,  the 

Maglock would be wired to Relay 1 and the door controller would 

be wired to Relay 2.  An example wiring diagram for this scenario is 

shown.

NOTE:   While the ‘WET’ Input is not involved in our typical 

application, it will still function as Input 1 does if used.

MC29 SETUP

1.  Wire the Br3 accordingly.

2.  Select the MC29 as the function according to the steps outlined in Section 5 – Selecting the Function.

•  Press and hold both push buttons (INCR & PARAM) for three (3) seconds to activate the display.

•  Press the INCR button to toggle through each function and select 

29

.

3.  Set the MC29 parameters according to the steps outlined in Section 5 – Selecting the Function.  

•  Press PARAM button to cycle through and set the parameters.

•  Press the INCR button to increment the parameter’s value.

Parameters for the MC29 function are shown in the chart.  Set the parameters as needed for the application, and wait for the display to 

become inactive to save the configuration.

                                   and close it’s contacts to disable the sequence.

01

’ = Reverse Logic:  The activation device at Input 3 must be normally 

                                    closed and open it’s contacts to disable the sequence.

4.  Once programming is complete, test the Br3.   Trigger the sequence via Input 1 or ‘WET’ Input.  Ensure that the sequence runs and the 

relays activate and the timers are as programmed.  The display will show 

R1

 when Relay 1 is energized, 

R2

 when Relay 2 is energized and 

R=

 when both Relay 1 and Relay 2 are energized at the same time.  Ensure that the delay between Relay 1 and Relay 2 runs when the 

sequence starts from the door closed position.  Ensure that Relay 1 stays active the entire time until the door returns to the closed position. 

Now, re-run the sequence; however this time before the door reaches the closed position, reactivate the door and ensure that the door 

reactivates immediately as the delay between timer, 

D1

 does NOT run.  Finally check the sequence disabling feature by triggering Input 3, 

while at the same time attempting to run the sequence by triggering Input 1 or ‘WET’ Input.  The sequence should NOT run again until Input 

3 is released.

5.  Upon completion of the above steps, walk test the door to ensure all functions, timers, sensors, etc. are working as intended and that the 

system is in compliance with all applicable standards (i.e. ANSI A156.10, A156.19).
