directional swing or sliding type doors. The lock is also capable of securing bi-parting motorized
sliding doors. On swing type doors the lock installs horizontally in the top or bottom of the door
frame or may be installed vertically in the door frame side. For slider type door applications the
locks must be installed horizontally for proper operation. These units have also been designed to
unlock even if a preload is applied to the door.
The SAM BondSTAT "B" Series, Bond Sensor, monitors the magnetic field. An internal sensor
activates a SPDT dry contact relay connection designed for interface to access control and/or
alarm systems for reporting the status of the Magnalock. (See Section 5.6.6)
The DPS "D" Series, Door Position Sensor, is activated by a special magnetic strike armature
assembly.
The isolated SPDT reed switch, with an internal resettable protection device, is
designed for interface to access control and/or alarm system for door status.
