Getting started
Before installing the CT5000, read all documentation for all products in the
installation.
1. Determine the location of each component in the access control system.
The CT5000
must be installed indoors.
2. To operate at optimum efficiency, cable runs should be kept as short as possible.
3. Consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local electrical codes for information
regarding wire run lengths and minimum required wire gauge.
4. Install the UL listed reader(s) as specified in the control unit installation instructions.
L
The CT5000 may not control or configure the reader’s beeper or LED settings.
Consult the reader’s user guide for more information on configuring the reader’s
beeper or LED patterns.
5. Install the UL listed electrified locking hardware. See the manufacturer’s installation
guide that came with the hardware. For installation instructions and information for
Schlage electrified locks, visit the Schlage website at www.allegion.com/us (see
Support>Schlage Electronics>Electronic Locks Technical Library).
6. Install the CT5000.
A U.S. single gang electrical box (not included) is required for
the remote USB connection
. See
Remote USB connection
on page 13.
7. Install a UL294 or ULCS318/ULCS319 listed power supply (example: Schlage PS900
Series) for the CT5000 and the readers. The power supply must be compatible with all
components and must have the capacity to power the CT5000
and
the readers. (The
CT5000 requires a power supply capable of sourcing at least 500 mA @ 12 or 24 VDC.)
L
If preferred, separate UL294 or ULCS318/ULCS319 listed power sources for the
CT5000 and the readers is an acceptable alternative.
8. Make sure power is properly connected to all components in the system.
9. After power is applied, remove the mylar strip from the coin cell battery.
10. Make all wiring connections.
11. Configure and program the CT5000. See
CT5000 manual programming
on page 16.
12. Test the operation of the CT5000 with the electrified locking hardware. See
Test
on
page 21.
