3. once wiring has been routed into the lock cavity, connect
wire to terminal blocks as shown in Fig. 1. If optional SCS
and/or DSS features are being used these can also be wired
at this time as shown in Fig. 1.
4. Delayed Relock Feature - Should the built-in delayed relock
feature be required for the installation, a Normally open
Momentary switch such as an RCI 909 will need to be installed
and connected to the two blue wires from J2 on the circuit board
as illustrated in Fig.1.
The delayed relock feature can be used to momentarily
release the lock and keep it unlocked for a time period from 0
to approximately 35 seconds. The time delay for this feature
can be adjusted by carefully turning the potentiometer (R14)
in a counterclockwise direction to increase delay time.
Factory setting is zero seconds.
NOTE: on the 8320 double-door model the potentiometer in
the right-hand wiring cavity must be turned clockwise and the
left one counterclockwise to increase the relock delay.
If the delayed relock feature is not required the blue wires
may be unplugged from the circuit board @ J2.
NOTE: If R14 is not set to zero seconds, the lock will enter
delayed relock mode each time power is applied even if J2
has been removed.

To Ensure Instant Release - All switching devices must be wired
in between the DC power source and the positive terminal of the
lock in Fig 2.
Switching the negative power supply line will not allow the lock to
release immediately. RCI electromagnetic locks contain Mov’s for
surge suppression and do not require any additional suppression
to be added during installation. The installation of diodes across
the lock input terminals will cause a delay in release.
