"GENIUS 2.1 Operating Instructions" from our server (see below) and read them completely
through. You must especially follow the instructions in the chapter "Safety".
Target group of this documentation
This documentation is intended for use by specialists only. All work described in this
document is to be performed only by experienced professionals with training and practice in
the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock and its
individual components.
Intended use (Excerpt)
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock is equipped with an automatic locking and unlocking function.
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock is suitable for installation in timber, aluminium, steel and
PVC entry doors for residential and public buildings.
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock must be operated with a free-running cylinder compliant
with the German standard DIN 18252.
Only use cylinders with the FZG* marking
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock can be connected to an external access control system
(e.g., wireless, transponder or fingerprint scanner system) via a voltage-free contact -
switching time min. 1 second.
• Use the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock only when it is in a technically sound condition.
• Use the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock only with genuine KFV accessories.
Improper use (excerpt)
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock must not be used for escape doors in accordance with
EN 179 or EN 1125!
• The GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock must not be used in doors for wet rooms or rooms in
which the air contains aggressive or corrosive components.
• The cable length between power supply and the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock must not exceed the
length specified in the technical specifications of the assembly instructions for the GENIUS 2.1.
• The multi-point lock and the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock must not be interfered with and/
or modified.
• None of the locking elements may be excluded when the door is open.
Safety notes
• Work on a 230 V AC mains power supply may only be performed by a qualified
electrician.
• All work on the 230 V AC mains power supply must be carried out in compliance with
the current German VDE regulations (e.g., VDE 0100) and any relevant country-specific
requirements.
• All-pole safety isolation should be used when fitting the network connection cable on-site.
• Some external access control systems available on the market transmit a brief "open" signal
when the operating voltage is switched on. This can mean that the GENIUS 2.1 multi-point lock
will open the door following a power failure. If in doubt, please contact the system manufacturer.
If energy-carrying cables are routed in parallel to data cables (ISDN, DSL, etc.),
this could lead to interferences, e.g., in the speed of the data transmission.
We recommend that you use the shielded KFV cable.
