Close the Door
To prevent the door from being held or propped open, the Max.
Door Open Time parameter can be defined in the Setup
function, on page 39.
• If the door is held open longer than the time specified by the
Max. Door Open Time, the controller will respond with an
alarm and the Door Held Open message.
• When the door is closed, the controller will report Door
Closed.
Hold the Door Open
If an optional door holder is installed, Relay 2 will control that
device. When the door is opened by the controller or by the RTE
device, Relay 2 activates to turn on the door holder and hold the
door open.
To use a door holder, Relay 2 must be set for DIFFERENT HOLD
TIME, see page 35 in the APEX Device Setup Function. The
period of time to hold the door is specified by the Relay #2 Hold
Time parameter. Note: this time must be set to a value less than
the Max. Door Open Time to prevent false alarms.
Request to Exit
If an request to exit (RTE) device is added to Input 2, the door
strike is activated by the controller or the signal from the RTE
device. A request to exit (RTE) device is typically a push button or
motion detector designed to open a door from the inside.
• If the door is opened without Relay 1 being active, the controller
will respond with an alarm and the Door Held Open alarm
message.
