Door Bounce Delay
Door Bounce Delay allows you to select a delay from 1-7 seconds for the forced open
alarm. This prevents a false alarm from occurring, for example when the door closes to
quickly and the pressure from the hydraulic door closer allows the door to bounce open
again before securing.
Note: If using Elevator Control, some older elevators require the relay to be activated
longer. If this is necessary, in the software set the Door Bounce Timer to 2
seconds. This should take care of any additional delay required by the elevator.
IKE Allows Ingress
This field only appears if IKE Reader is selected above. In some security applications,
alarms can only be masked from inside the area. When this is the situation, and this IKE
reader is used to enter the security area, click the check box. The IKE reader allows the
authorized cardholder into the area, but does not mask the alarms.
Door Strike Relay #
If you are using a relay other than the default selection for the door lock, select a relay
number for the door strike by clicking on a relay number in the drop-down list. The default
selection for reader 0 uses relay 16 located on the ACU, reader 1 uses relay 18, and so on.
For more information on relay addressing, see
Note: On a paired reader (two readers on one door), the two readers share the same
door strike relay; therefore when wiring a paired reader:
• the reader with the higher address should use the door strike relay of the
reader with the lower address
• the reader with the lower address should use the default door strike relay.
Allow One Minute Grace
Select this option if you want the Door Held Open timer to extend for one additional minute
after the normal Held Open time. During this time the reader's LEDs (and buzzer if
equipped) signals a violation. If the controlled door re-closes before the minute expires, the
door Held Open Alarm cancels and is never sent to the Workstation.
Lock Type
There are two types of lock that are used in different situations depending on how the lock
should respond to a power failure.
• Fail Safe – Select if the electric lock installed requires power to keep the door locked. If
power were to fail the door would then automatically unlock.
• Fail Secure – Select if power would be required to unlock the door. In the normal
condition with no power to the lock it would be locked. In the event of a power failure
the door would remain locked.
The above action requires the panel to have firmware version 5.79 (5 series) or 6.10 (6
series) or higher.
The first two of these options require a door contact to monitor door condition.
Unlock Door on REX
Select this option when you want the reader door to unlock when a person initiates a
Request To Exit (REX) the area. A button, motion detector, or other device may activate the
Request to Exit. A Request to Exit is required so that a Forced Open Alarm is not
generated when a cardholder exits an area that does not have an exit keypad or reader, but
does have a door contact.
If the door is to unlock when the Request to Exit is generated, click the box to the right. The
door responds the same as if a cardholder has entered a valid card/PIN to access the area.
If the door has a crash bar which allows exiting without unlocking the door, remove the
check mark from this box. This allows the door to be opened from the inside but the alarm
is masked allowing the person to exit without generating a Forced Open Alarm.
