RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION SEQUENCE:
1. Verify strike is proper for the door into which it is to be
installed.
2. Verify that you have all parts required to complete the
installation.
3. Verify that the new electric release operates with the
existing power supply/control circuit (retrofit
applications); or verify that the new power supply/
control circuit operates the new electric release (new
installations).
4. Locate and clearly mark the circuit breaker which
provides ac power to your transformer/ power supply
or that supplies power to the receptacle into which you
will plug your transformer/power supply. This will
enable you to safely cut power during installation, and
permit troubleshooting if required.
5. Verify that the receptacle or circuit providing power to
the electric release is not controlled by a wall switch,
time clock, or other external device.
6. Verify that the circuit/receptacle used for the locking
system is not powering any other equipment.
Remember that interruption of power to your locking
system could prevent access into the protected area,
or jeopardize the security/safety of the site's
occupants.
7. Verify that the door and associated components are in
good working order.
8. Install electric release as per attached guidelines.
9. Wire electric release as per attached guidelines.
10. Perform final test of completed installation.
