TROUBLESHOOTING THE COMPLETED INSTALLATION:
SYMPTOM: Electric release is not actuating:
1. Verify proper voltage is present AT STRIKE. If voltage IS present: the strike may have been damaged during the
installation, or dirt or debris may be preventing proper operation.
2. Verify for proper electric release coil resistance (REFER TO COIL ESISTANCE CHART), for either a short circuit or
open circuit. Coil is NOT a serviceable part.
Note that intermittent coils can only receive power for 1 minute
or less.
3. If voltage IS NOT present:
Verify Circuit breaker is on
Verify voltage at the transformer/power supply output.
Verify output from rectifier (if used)
Verify that there are no additional, unknown external switches or devices which may be interrupting your circuit.
Check for damaged wiring or bad wire splices.
SYMPTOM: Door will not open but strike is working
Check for other locks on door
Check for proper lock-latch engagement (SEE SECTION: "CONFIRMING PROPER LOCK-LATCH ENGAGEMENT &
CLEARANCES").
Lock latch engagement may be not set correctly. (If proper clearance cannot be achieved by installing a shim; a
shorter lock latch may be required for your installation.)
Check for excessive backpressure on door release latch by following these steps:
While observing the electric release and latch; apply enough pressure on the door so that the lock's latch does not
press on the electric release's latch. If applying pressure as described does not cause nay movement of the lock
away form the latch, then there may be too much pressure on the electric release's latch. If electric release works
properly while you are applying this pressure, then steps must taken to relieve this pressure. Possible remedies
include:
Re-adjust (or install) a door closer
Remove door silencers
Correct excessive door warpage
Re-center electric release in jamb
Remove or trim weather stripping around the door
