Design and function
4.2 Function
The MPT turnstile is used to control pedestrians in outdoor areas with relative-
ly high safety requirements. The turnstile can be operated either in one direc-
tion or in both directions.
Normally, the turnstile is closed. Only after authorisation by means of an exter-
nal command unit, such as a card reader, will a passage be possible and the
centre pillar can be rotated by 120°. If the centre pillar is not turned complete-
ly, a spring moves the centre pillar to the next end position.
Alternatively, the turnstile can be enabled permanently in one direction or in
both directions.
As standard, the turnstile is supplied with the "normally open locking" configu-
ration. In this case, the turnstile can be passed in both directions in the de-en-
ergised state. If the turnstile is supplied with the configuration "Locking nor-
mally closed", the turnstile is locked in both directions.
A random function is integrated for checking persons or bags. If the random
function reaches the random value of passes, the pass is blocked and a signal is
given. Only after the operating personnel has actuated an enable signal, the
passage is enabled and the person can pass.
