CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES
Use the PG21 for a variety of applications--emergency fire escape doors, nursing home stairwell doors, rear restaurant doors, and many others.
To change the way the PG21 operates when in use, two areas of the PG21 can be configured: (a) the PC Board jumpers and (b) the Torsion
Spring connection. Listed below are pre-defined modes for typical applications. Simply select a mode, configure the jumpers and/or spring, and
put your PG21 into use. NOTE: "Always Armed" mode (Torsion Spring connected--factory default) is in effect unless otherwise stated.
