Other Features
Connect a Remote Exit / Egress Switch
Making a connection (via a suitable momentary contact switch) between connector terminals 10 and 1
(return) will release (or open) the door lock for a pre-set period of time (the door strike time). This feature can
be used to provide a remote exit facility, allowing personnel to exit from a secure area by pressing a button
located near or adjacent to the door (on the secure side only). [see sections vii) and viii) for information about
setting the door strike time]. Please note, in 2 door operation the connection of a remote egress switch to
control the second door is not possible.
Connect an External Alarm
An alarm bell or klaxon can be activated via connector terminals 6 and 7. When the keypad enters an alarm
state (door forced or operator under duress or anti-tamper), these two terminals will provide an alarm signal
(2 Amps max. at 30 Volts DC). The alarm bell or klaxon should be connected as shown in Electrical & Data
Connections. Please note that the alarm bell or klaxon is not powered from the keypad and so must have an
independent power supply.
An alarm signal can be cancelled by keying in any valid entry code or the engineer’s code. If the cause of the
alarm can be rectified (i.e. The Anti-Tamper switch can be re-closed, or a ‘forced door’ can be closed), then
keying in a valid ‘Entry Code’ will silence and reset the alarm.
If for any reason the cause of the alarm can not be rectified (e.g. The keypad has been forced away from the
wall, or the door has been damaged and can not be closed), then the alarm can be silenced by keying in a
valid ‘Entry Code’ twice (2 times). When the alarms have been silenced in this way, the keypad must be
isolated from the power for a minimum of 3 seconds to reset the alarm feature.
Note if the alarm function is used to indicate operator under duress then the alarm should be discreet, i.e.,
situated in a remote location beyond the audible or visual range of an attacker or intruder. The alarm feature
can be used to interface with a centralised alarm system or to trigger a synthesised or pre-recorded auto dial
telephone message to a chosen monitoring station.
Alternatively, terminals (6 and 7) can be used to control a second door.
Control a Second Door
(one keypad controls access through two doors)
Connector terminals 6 and 7 can be used as
a relay output to control a second door. When
the keypad is used for second door control
the Alarms feature will be disabled.
To configure the keypad for second door control,
‘log on to Programming Mode’, then enter
8 to select Relay 2 Set Function.
Listen for the ‘accept bleep’.
Then enter 1 to configure the relay for
second door control, or enter 0 to re-configure
the relay as an alarm output.
Listen for the ‘accept bleep’.
