Base Turnstile on page 26. Uncrating The EDM has been packed for shipping to prevent damage to the unit. Two or more installers are required to unload the EDM at the installation site. Once the turnstile cabinet has been placed in the installation location, carefully remove the protective packing material from the sides of the cabinet.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Introduction This manual covers the physical installation process for the EDM Motorized Waist High Turnstile. At the end of this process, you will be able to power up the turnstile and perform a functions check to validate operation.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Space & Conduit Requirements • There must be 2" (50.8mm) of clearance between the turnstile arm and the adjacent turnstile or barrier [Fig. 1]. • Stub up conduit in accordance with local electrical codes [Fig. 2].

EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Electrical Specifications UL Rated Power Supply 110-120 VAC, 60 Hz or 220-240 VAC, 50 Hz (optional) Power Requirements Maximum power consumption is 60W per lane with all options installed. Operational Voltage Primary power is stepped down and rectified for low voltage 24VDC, 12VDC, and 5VDC operation.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Anchoring the Turnstile Fig. 4 1. Using a turnstile leg key, open the turnstile leg access panels [Fig. 4]. 2. Using a 9/16" socket wrench, remove the four (4) bolts that secure the temporary wood plate to the turnstile.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Primary Power Wiring Instructions The following instructions are for fixed turnstile installations only. If you are installing NOTE a portable AC-powered or battery-powered unit, please refer to Appendix B - Portable Base Turnstile instructions on page 26.
To / From Access Control System Inputs - J4 Terminal Block Signal inputs from access control systems are wired into the EDM’s I/O input terminal block. There are two types of input signals, momentary dry contacts (MDC) and sustained dry contacts (SDC).

EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Wiring the Control Board The EDM provides bidirectional access control in conjunction with the facility access control system. For bidirectional applications, the CW and CCW directions can be individually configured to different passage modes to suit facility requirements. For example, a turnstile can be configured for Controlled Passage in the CW direction, and Free Passage mode in the CCW direction.

Locate the EXTPAS and GND terminals on EXTREJ the I/O J4 terminal block. EXTACC CCW Direction 2. Using a wire jumper, connect the EXTPAS EMROVR and GND terminals.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Post-Installation Inspection NOTE Perform this post-installation inspection BEFORE powering on the turnstile for the first time. 1. Anchoring (fixed installations only): Verify the anchor bolts are tensioned to 20 ft-lbs. Tighten if necessary. 2. Dust, Dirt, & Debris: While the unit is powered down, open the lid to reveal the interior electronics. Blow any dirt, dust, and small debris out of the turnstile with low-pressure compressed air such as Dust-Off.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Testing Turnstile Functionality Perform the following turnstile functionality tests to validate basic turnstile operation. The following is assumed (Controlled Passage mode tests only): • The access control system is operational and all access control wiring to the turnstile is connected.

EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Testing Turnstile Functionality (Cont.) Test Turnstile Response Procedure EMROVR/GND • Arms drop allowing passage Drop Arm in emergency situations. • Place a jumper across Pins 4 & 5, • Performs boot up sequence EMROVR and GND, respectively.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Test Key Override Operation Key Override switches are provided to manually place the turnstile into Controlled Passage or Free Passage. There is one key override switch for each rotation direction. The key switches are located on the underside of the turnstile adjacent to the head and arms [Fig.
EDM Installation and Maintenance Instructions Test the Local Counter (Optional) The battery-powered LCD counter is used to count turnstile rotations. Each rotation of the turnstile arm generates a count. One counter is required per rotation direction. 1. Place the turnstile in Free Passage Mode using the Key Override.
User Status Lights Open / Close Lights The EDM can also be equipped with Open / Close lights. The lights are installed on the upper "leg" of the cabinet and perform in the following manner [Fig. 14]: • Green - Illuminates when the turnstile is open for use.
EDM Utility The EDM ships with the EDM Utility which allows adjustment of settings and tests turnstile functionality. The EDM Utility is on a USB drive included with the turnstile. Copy the file from the USB drive to your laptop. There is no installation required.

Access CW Activates the turnstile in the Clockwise direction. Access CCW Activates the turnstile in the Counter-Clockwise direction.
Maintenance Preventative maintenance should be performed periodically after installation to ensure the product maintains its visual exterior and optimal performance. To maintain the EDM, follow the instructions below as needed. Cleaning the Cabinet Exterior Regular cleaning is the best way to maintain any stainless steel or finished equipment and prevent corrosion.
