StrikeIt1
(unit is factory set @ 300ms) (Fig. 3d, pg. 7).
Note: When external control of door unlock time is desired, i.e., card reader, set time to minimum
(completely counter-clockwise).
6. Connect Normally Open (NO) Dry Contacts from actuating devices such as an Access Control Panel, REX PIR,
Keypad, etc. to terminals marked [GND, IN1] and [GND, IN2] (Fig. 1a, pg. 5).
Note: If it is desired to trigger both Input 1 and Input 2 from a single actuating device, install jumpers between
terminals marked [IN1] and [IN2] and also both terminals marked [GND] (Fig. 1a, pg. 5).
7. Connect auxiliary devices to be powered (Keypads, REX motion detectors, electronic timers, external relays ) to the
appropriate auxiliary power output terminals. For 12VDC devices, use terminals marked [+ 12VDC -- ].
For 24VDC devices, use terminals marked [-- 24VDC +] (Fig. 1, pg. 5).
8. Connect devices to be controlled to terminals marked [DELAYED1, DELAYED2] and/or [FOLLOWER1,
FOLLOWER2] (Dry form “C” contacts are rated @ 1 amp/28VDC) (Fig. 1, pg. 5). Adjust delay time using jumper
pins marked [DLY1] and [DLY2] (Fig. 3b, pg. 7) (0.5 seconds with jumper in place, one (1) second with jumper
removed), (unit is factory set for 0.5 seconds delay).
Note: All interconnecting devices must be UL Listed.
9. To hookup the Fire Alarm Disconnect feature, wire the normally closed (NC) output from a Fire Alarm Control Panel
to the terminals marked [FACP] and [GND] of StrikeIt1.
The “FA Select” jumper provides two (2) modes of operation (Fig. 3c, pg. 7):
a) With the jumper in place, the application of a FACP trigger input (open circuit) while Input 1 and Input 2 are
triggered will cause the unlocked (energized) panic hardware devices to relock (de-energize). Follower relays
will release (de-energize).
b) With the jumper removed, the application of a FACP trigger input (open circuit) while Input 1 and Input 2 are
not triggered will cause the locked (de-energized) panic hardware devices to unlock (energize). Follower relays
will activate (energize). Delayed relays will energize momentarily.
Note: With the jumper removed, the application of a FACP trigger input (open circuit) while Input 1 and Input 2
are triggered will have no affect on the operation of Output 1 or Output 2 and their corresponding Follower or
Delayed
relays.
10. When using stand-by batteries, they must be lead acid or gel type. 7AH batteries will provide one (1) hour
backup time. Connect two (2) 12VDC batteries wired in series to the terminals marked [+ BAT -- ].
For Access Control applications batteries are optional. When batteries are not used loss of AC will result in the
loss of output voltage.
11. Mount UL Listed tamper switch (Sentrol model 3012 or equivalent) at the top of the enclosure. Slide the tamper
switch bracket onto the edge of the enclosure approximately 2” from the right side (Fig. 3a, pg. 7). Connect tamper
switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate UL Listed reporting device. To activate alarm
signal open the door of the enclosure.
12. Upon completion of wiring secure enclosure door with screws or cam lock (supplied).
