Controlled Products Systems Group 1812-087 - Manual (Page 7)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• Prior to beginning the installation of the telephone entry system, we suggest that you become
familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guidelines in this manual. This will help
insure that you installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner.
• The proper installation of the telephone entry panel is an extremely important and integral
part of the overall access control system. Check all local building ordinances and building
codes prior to installing this system. Be sure your installation is in compliance with local
codes.
• When used to control a door or pedestrian gate, try to locate the telephone entry system as
near as possible to the entry point. The unit should be mounted on a rigid wall to prevent
excessive shock and vibration from closing doors or gates. Continuous vibration and shock
from slamming doors or spring-loaded pedestrian gates will damage the circuit board. Under
no circumstances should the unit be mounted directly to a moving door or gate.
• ADA mounting requirements for door control. The requirements below apply only when
the telephone entry system is being used to control entry through a public door only. If this
system is used to control entry through a vehicular gate or private entrance, the dimensions
noted below do not apply.
1. If the clear floor space allows only forward approach to the system, the maximum
high forward reach allowed is 48 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
2. If the high forward reach to the system is over an obstruction of greater than 20
inches but less than 25 inches, the maximum high forward reach allowed is 44 inches
above grade to the top of the keypad.
3. If the clear floor space allows parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair, the
maximum high side reach shall be 54 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
4. If the high side reach is over an obstruction of 24 inches or less, the maximum high
side reach allowed is 46 inches above grade to the top of the keypad.
• When used to control a vehicular gate with an automatic gate operator, the telephone
entry system must be mounted a minimum of ten (10) feet away from the gate and gate
operator, or in such a way that a person cannot operate the entry system and/or touch
the gate or gate operator at the same time.
• Be sure that the system is installed so that it is not directly in the traffic lane. Goose neck
mounting post and kiosks work well for these type systems. When planning where to locate
the system, take into consideration traffic lane layouts, turn around lanes for rejected access,
conduit runs, power availability, etc.
• Environmental factors must also be taken into account. Surface mount units are designed for
direct outdoor installations, however it is preferable to protect them from direct exposure to
driven rain or snow whenever possible. Flush mount units must be protected from direct
exposure to the elements.
• This telephone entry system contains a number of static sensitive components that can be
damaged or destroyed by static discharges during installation or use. Discharge any static
prior to removing the circuit board from the lobby panel by touching a proper ground device.
• Instruct the end user to read and follow these instructions. Instruct the end user to
never let children play with or operate any access control device. This Owner’s
Manual is the property of the end user and must be left with them when installation is
complete.
