3 Change Override Time, 4 Change Door Unlocked Time
The factory default times for Door Unlocked and Override are 5 seconds and 15 seconds respectively,
and these will probably be suitable for most locations.
The override time should be set long enough for the user to open the door, enter the room and then
close the door. If this time is too short, the laser may become tripped out before the door is closed. If
this time is longer than necessary, the protection offered by the interlock system is diminished. The
Override time can be altered using option 3.
In general, the Door Unlocked time should be quite short, enough for the user to open the door but
short enough that the door becomes relocked as soon as it closes. The Door Unlocked time can be
altered using option 4.
When you have selected one option 3 or 4, the PRG light will flash quickly to show that the keypad is
ready to accept the new activation time for the selected output. Type in the desired time in seconds
in the range 1 – 30, followed by #. The time will be stored by the keypad and it will return to the
Program Mode menu above, with the PRG light flashing slowly, ready for the next choice.
If you wish to disable the selected output, for example to disable the Door Unlock output because
there is no door lock, simply program the selected time to 0 seconds.
If you make an invalid entry, e.g. by entering a time greater than 30 seconds, the keypad will return
to the Program Mode menu with the PRG LED flashing slowly and the time value will not be changed.
5 Enter Test Mode
Selecting this option causes the keypad to run its built-in test function. Once 5 has been pressed, the
PRG light will flash quickly to show that the keypad is ready to begin the test. Press all the keys once
in the following order:
If all is well the Door output will activate for the programmed time period (unless the time has been
set to 0), and the Override output will operate. The test verifies that both the normal and backup
override timers are working, so the user should check that the override indication on the ICS panel
ceases within 50 seconds and the Override indication on the keypad is extinguished after 60 seconds.
If the ICS panel override indication ceases at the same time as the override indicator on the keypad,
this should be considered a fault and the keypad may be defective.
Once the test function has completed, the keypad will return to the Program Mode menu above, with
the PRG light flashing slowly, ready for the next choice.
# Exit and return to normal operation
Once you have finished programming and testing, press
to return to normal operation.
