Theory of Operation The Adams Rite Power Supply (PS-SE) provides power and control for up to two exit devices. Each exit device is controlled by a timer that is initiated by a switch closure. The timer is user configured and holds the exit device(s) in the unlatched position for 2–60 seconds.
Set the Operation Mode NOTE 1: The PS-SE has two operation modes, Single Input (Sequential Operation) and Dual Input (Independent Operation), as follows: Single Input (Sequential Operation) Application: Control one opening Operation: Either input retracts Exit Device #1, immediately followed by Exit Device #2.

Table 1. Solenoid Hold Time Settings for Exit Device #1 Switch b. SET the hold open time for Exit Device #2 using SW1 dip switches 6, 7, and 8 (see Table 2, “Solenoid Hold Time Settings for Exit Device #2,” for settings and hold times, and Figure 3 for hold time settings example).
Connect the Fire Alarm Control NOTE 1: Use of the PS-SE power supply with fire doors requires the system be under the control of an automatic fire alarm control system. NOTE 2: The PS-SE is factory preset to be used without a fire alarm interface.
Wire the PS-SE to the Exit Devices NOTE: The maximum length listed with each wire gauge must never be exceeded. 1. WIRE the PS-SE to the exit devices using the information in Table 3, “Wire Gauge and Lengths.” Table 3. Wire Gauge and Lengths Maximum Cable Length Wire Gauge 0–300 feet...

2. REMOVE the orange jumper block installed into the BATT BACKUP connector of the PS-SE circuit board by pulling the orange jumper free from the circuit board. NOTE: Mounting points are available in the PS-SE enclosure for the Battery Backup System circuit board. 3.
Wire the Automatic Door Interface (Optional) NOTE: This step is required to use the PS-SE with an automatic door opener. Automatic door opening systems need an indication of the latch state. The latch controller, which is located in the panic device, has relay contacts that let the automatic door opener know the latch state (i.e., the relay contacts are closed when the latch is fully retracted and open when the latch is extended).

4. If exit devices activate, problem could be the access controller; ENSURE Jumper on J3 9-10 for Fire Alarm is secure and tight; and, ENSURE connector for BATT BACKUP is in place and secure. 5. CHECK for shorts in the wiring and if fuses are blown in the PS-SE. 6.

2. ENSURE continuity through the power transfer devices, such as wired hinges and door cords/loops. Main Power LED (Red) is not lit ENSURE line voltage is present. 2. CHECK Fuse F2 (in black fuse holder) and REPLACE if necessary. 3. ENSURE that the Primary Voltage Selection Switch (SW2) is properly set.
Exit devices retract even though the control switch had not been activated 1. VERIFY that a maintained control switch is being used and it is in the closed position. 2. IF it is suspected that the control switch is defective, THEN DISCONNECT to verify.
