The system can monitor doors and lock them in case of a loss of power. A sensor (balanced magnetic switch) monitors this door,
but its lock is purely mechanical.
Prerequisites: The door has no card reader, no door strike, no ability to receive an exit request, but it has a sensor with
alarm notification.
Perform the following steps:
- Navigate to .
- Double-click the module to which the door is connected.
The Module tab opens.
- Click the Doors tab.
- Click Manage Devices, select
Rename and click Ok, select the door and click Ok, give the door a descriptive name, and click Ok.
- Click the hyperlink for the door.
Reader, strike and request-to-exit functions are not needed for this door. The various inputs and outputs that are normally
reserved for those functions are available for use elsewhere.
- Click Manage Devices, select
Delete and click Ok, select the reader associated with this door, and click Ok.
- Confirm that the Readers tab is no longer available.
If you need another relay output somewhere else in the configuration, you can delete the strike for this door. RO2 will then
be available on the
Additional Points tab for the module. There is no harm in allowing the
Strike tab to remain with everything set to the defaults.
If you need another supervised digital input somewhere else in the configuration, you can delete the request to exit for this
door. SDIn will then be available on the Additional Points tab for the module.
- If you choose not to delete the request to exit, set the
Exit Request Fault Alarm Class on the Exit Request tab to Off Alarm Class to prevent nuisance alarms.
