MAGNALOCK OPERATIONAL TESTS
Test 1 – Verifying
correct startup
The DEM680E should be calibrated with
a non-zero nuisance delay setting.
1
With the door closed, the LED should be GREEN,
indicating that it is active (see Diagram 36).
• If the LED is RED or AMBER, stop and consult
the Troubleshooting Guide to correct.
Test 2 – Verifying
door security
2
With the door closed, PUSH against the face of
the door WITHOUT releasing the primary locking
mechanism (e.g., an exit device or cylindrical/mortise
door lock). The nuisance alarm should not sound if
the door is adjusted properly (see Diagram 37).
• If the nuisance alarm sounds, there is too much door
movement. The primary locking mechanism must be
adjusted to reduce excessive door travel. Excessive
movement will cause the DEM680E to go into alarm
and unlock when the door is pulled from the unsecure
side. Make necessary corrections and repeat Test 2.
Test 3 – Verify nuisance
alarm function
3
UNLOCK the primary locking mechanism (push bar or turn
handle) and attempt to push the door open. The nuisance
alarm should sound (see Diagram 38). Close the door before
the nuisance interval expires to prevent the alarm state.
• If the nuisance alarm does not sound, the strike
assembly screw may have been overtightened.
Overtightening prevents the door from traveling past
the nuisance threshold. Refer to "No Alarm" in the
Troubleshooting Guide and Diagram 14 which shows
proper adjustment of the strike assembly screw.
Test 4 – Verify countdown
alarm & free egress
4
UNLOCK the primary locking mechanism and attempt to
open the door. The nuisance alarm should sound along
with a flashing strobe. Maintain pressure on the door
until the alarm becomes steady; the DEM680E is now in
alarm state. The door should open in 15 or 30 seconds,
depending on the exit and nuisance delay settings. At
the end of the alarm interval, the LED should turn red,
and the door should freely open. (see Diagram 39).
*After testing, close the door and perform a reset. After
reset, the strobe should turn off and the LED should change
from red to green. VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE.
