The "CALL" and "DURESS" outputs are associated with the keyboard or "Code"
channel. Note that the RQE and Door sensor input are only available for the
"Proximity" channel. The arrow linking the CODE CONTROL and PROXIMITY
CONTROL blocks indicates that the two channels can be configured to work
together as CARD & CODE.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS

Listed below are some of the many configurations that can be achieved using the
chameleon system.

SINGLE DOOR

Proximity In, RQE Out, Here the proximity reader would be mounted on the
insecure side of the door and a separate RQE button, such as the Progeny 2068,
would be mounted on the secure side. Alternatively the Call button of the
keyboard-controller can be used.
If the locking device allows for mechanical egress then the RQE button is not
needed. In this case it may be mounted near a receptionists desk to allow remote
door release.
Proximity In, Code Out, Here the code relay NO & C contacts are wired the RQE
input of the proximity channel. Thus a code is required to open the door from the
inside.
Card & Code In, RQE Out* Here the proximity and the keyboard controller are
mounted next to each other on the insecure side of the door. The controller is set
to Card & Code mode (see engineering settings). A separate RQE button can be
fitted if required.
Card Or Code In, RQE Out* Here again the proximity reader and the keyboard
are next to each other. However, the controller is set for Card OR Code mode and
the Code relay is wired to the RQE input. Thus valid access codes OR valid cards
will open the door.
SINGLE DOOR & CONTROL
The proximity channel would work as in the above cases but the code channel
can be used for some totally separate function. If the lock time for the code
channel is set to zero the relay will toggle each time a valid code is entered. Thus
the code can be used to set or un-set an intruder alarm panel, shunt a zone, open
a goods entry door, override or inhibit the operation of the proximity relay etc. The
list is endless, anywhere a secure switch is required the code channel can be
used.

TWO DOOR

Proximity In, RQE Out & Code on a Second Door *. Here the keyboard
controller is mounted on the insecure side of a second door. Note that the locking
device should provide mechanical egress or be a door to something that a person
would not go into such as a store cupboard.
