Configuring & installing the mortise case

door status switch hole and through the channel 
into the mortise cavity and out through one of the 
sensor and motor wire holes.

3  Press fit the door status switch assembly into the 

door status switch hole.

5

Rotate latchbolt 

(if necessary)

Note: 

If a function specific mortise case was ordered, 

some steps for configuring the case have already been 
performed at the factory.

1  Determine whether you need to rotate the latchbolt 

to match the handing of the door.

Note: 

The angled surface of the latchbolt must con-

tact the strike when the door closes.

2  If you need to rotate the latchbolt, insert a flat blade 

screwdriver into the latch access point approxi-
mately 1/2

 into the case and press to extend the 

latch out of the case. See Figure 4.

3  Rotate the latchbolt 190 degrees (slightly past 180 

degrees) and allow it to retract into the case.

6

Position hub toggles

 (if necessary)

1  Check whether the hub toggles are in the proper 

position for the lock. See the table below 
and Figure 5.

Note 1: 

For LH & LHRB doors, the inside is the back 

side of the case and the outside is the cover side of the 
case. For RH & RHRB doors, the inside is the cover side 
of the case and the outside is the back side of the case. 
The cover is mounted to the case with four screws.

Note 2: 

Two RQE status switches are installed in the 

mortise case. However, only the switch for the inside of
