59- Electroguard™ Exit Device - ElectroLynx Wiring Notes (Consult factory for assistance if required)
1. The ElectroLynx connector system is designed to be installation friendly with pluggable connectors from the
electric hinge through the door to the rail. The rail, raceway, electric hinge, and pigtail harness connector
terminations and wire colors all match.
2. For most applications, an 8-pin electric hinge is required.
3. A 12-pin (8 & 4-pin) electric hinge is required for all three remote alarm relay (RAR) contacts or latch bolt
monitoring (LBM) or Gang.
4. If Gang is required, a connection choice should be made depending on which rail wires are unused leading to
the 8- and 4-pin door side electric hinge. When determined, cut those wires from the door side electric hinge
connector and hard wire from the raceway to the cut electric hinge wires.
5. Plug raceway connectors into ElectroLynx hinge connectors. Hard wire to corresponding pigtail harness wires
as required.
