Electric Strike
Components
This section describes components and connections for electric strike
wiring using Relay 2.
Bypass Switch
Connect the J15 Bypass jumper (closed) to provide the internal
connection from Maglock Pin 1 to the C contact of Relay 2. Do not connect
an external bypass switch.
Diode Protection
An optional surge suppression diode is available by connecting the J13
Diode jumper (closed). If the electric strike has a suppression diode built-
in, disconnect the J13 Diode jumper (open).
Using Relay 1 for an
Electric Strike
Relay 1 is a standard Form-C dry contact relay. Wiring door strikes using
this relay on the RM-4E is the same as wiring them to apCs, iSTARs, R/
8s etc.
Two pair of isolated tie points have been added to minimize splices.
Connect the strike and the power supply as shown. There is no
internal etch to consider when using Relay 1.
In the example below, a fail-secure door is shown with the normally open
(NO) contact. You can add an optional external suppression diode, if
desired.
