G: KEYSWITCH OPERATION
This is an alternative means of
setting the system, using a key
operated switch (or equivalent
electronic means) to perform
the setting procedure.
Two options are available:
Keyswitch Zone: When activated,
the system will commence exit
time in the normal way.
Blockschloss Zone: When
activated, the system will set
IMMEDIATELY, with NO Exit time.
The switch used may be
interlocked from the control (eg
by a solenoid) to prevent it being
set if a fault is present.
In both cases, returning the
switch to the normal position
will immediately UNSET the
system.
a) KEYSWITCH INPUT
The switch should be wired as a
ZONE INPUT (iD or EoL as
required).
Programme the zone as
'Keyswitch' or
‘
Blockschloss
’
according to operation required,
and allocate the zone to the
area(s) required to be set / unset
from the switch.
The default is for the switch to
be active (ie setting system)
when switch contacts are OPEN.
If required to use this with
switch contacts closed, select
‘
NORMALLY OPEN
’
attribute for
the zone when programmed.
b) Exit mode
When a Keyswitch zone is in use,
the exit mode, etc. are the same as
would apply if an equivalent code
were entered at Keypad address 00
(note the "IN" settings).
c) INTERLOCK OUTPUT
For Blockschloss operation, output
configurations are available for
‘
Can Set All
’
(to interlock for
setting the entire system) or for
‘
Can Set A
’
etc. (when setting an
individual area)
–
see page 13-28.
It is NOT possible to provide a
dedicated interlock output for
combinations of areas (unless an
external module is used to
‘
gate
’
two outputs together).
These outputs will be live to
release the interlock, as long as ALL
zones (or those relevant to the
area being set) are clear, AND there
are no technical faults present that
are programmed to inhibit setting
(see
‘
site options
’
).
It is, of course, essential that the
outputs used have sufficient current
drive capability to power the
solenoid.
H: UNSET ONLY INPUT
An
'
Unset Only
'
input type is
available to permit the system to
be unset from (for example) an
access control unit, without
attempting to set again each time
the unit is used.
