Introduction
Rosslare’s EX-07/EX-17 electronic REX buttons control the access of a
magnetic lock or electric lock strike. The EX-07 and EX-17 are heavy-
duty, non-sparking, non-magnetic, corrosion resistant, illuminated, anti-
vandal, timed digital REX (Request-for-Exit) buttons, designed for both
indoor and outdoor use.
They feature solid state Piezoelectric Switch Technology generating 2
isolated Form C output pulses with a simple touch of a finger, with no
physical movement or moving parts.
Among the many features of the EX-07 and EX-17 are: Jumper
selectable illumination status with light dimming option, buzzer mode,
2 Form C relays, timed operation, and relay toggle option.
The EX-07 and EX-17 mount directly to standard US-size gang
switchboxes and are crafted to the highest manufacturing standards
out of the finest materials under Rosslare’s ISO 9001:2000 Certified
Quality standards.

Operational Characteristics
Jumpers
The EX-07/17 is equipped with 8 jumpers (see
Section
Timer
The timed option (External 1) is set by a built-in
potentiometer for 1 to 60 seconds
Lighting Behavior
When a colored light toggles on or off, it dims
from the On to Off state and lights up from the
Off to On state at a duration of about 500 ms.
The dimming or lighting duration starts on the on
or off command.
In the case of toggling between two colors, the
effect results in gradual color change between
red and green.
