Depending on existing door conditions you might need stainless steel plates, door wraps or hole adapters to cover doors that look like Swiss cheese. You might also want to have a door closer. All self-locking exit locks should have a properly adjusted door closer to assist in controlling & latching the door.

Technical Support Guide Retrofit to existing doors: Make sure the door is in good operating condition, free swinging and hangs true prior to installation. Make any adjustments to the door before installing the lock. Some extra shims are included with additional shims available for purchase. The Installer might need material to patch holes from any removed locks or hardware New Construction: Templating is available for strike preparation and for locations of mortar boxes for the frame. Header Depth The top bolt shoots approx one inch into the header. The header should be at least 1 ½” wide to accommodate the 5/8” diameter vertical deadbolt. Some adjustment can be made with the bolt shims. Saddle Depth The bottom bolt projects approximately one inch into the dust proof strike (less the gap above the saddle). The saddle should overhang past the doors interior by 1 ½”. This will allow room for the dustproof strike to be installed. (Drill as deep of a hole as you can in the floor to allow for debris that may accumulate in the hole. Clear the hole of debris after installation. Weather-stripping may have to be adjusted or trimmed to allow for the lower thru-bolt bracket Electrical information: Battery Powered models The combination battery alarm module and key-switch is attached to the panic device by a surface mounted armored cable. Clips are provided to attach the cable to the door. The cable loops onto the frame and attaches to the alarm box. The alarm box is to be mounted on the wall near the hinge side of the door with screws or anchors. No other connections are needed. Direct power single door alarm models 110vAC power needs to be brought to the Alarm Controller/Power Supply. The suggested location is approximately one foot above the door on the hinge side. The Key-switch box is surface mounted on the hinge side of the door at a comfortable height. Armored cable is provided to connect the Key-switch to the power supply. Direct power multi-door alarm models Power is brought to the Central Alarm Controller/Power Supply location. The Armored Cable from the Key-switch box connects to the door module (DM1) which is mounted in an electrical back box located at each door. From there, three (3) low voltage wires are run to the Central Alarm Controller/Power Supply using conduit supplied by the contractor. This Central Alarm Controller/Power Supply location must be protected from the rain, snow and other moisture. The location is usually indicated in the plans. See installation instructions for further information. Alarm Contact Location If the door is be monitored by an alarm system, we recommend mounting the alarm contact near the top corner of the lock edge of the door. Bringing the alarm contact closer to the main deadbolt will cause the alarm to ring sooner during an attempted break-in. If an alarm contact is to be installed at the top of the door, the edge of the contact must be a minimum of 9” from the edge of the door to avoid interference with the top bolt. Whenever possible coordinate this with the alarm company. 8

Technical Support Guide

alarm contact clearance 7"

MP4900 models are designed for install ation without any factory preparation. MP4900 Series There are a few things to keep in mind when ordering and fabricating doors and fr ames: 1) Alarm Contact Location, when the door is to be connected to an alarm system using an alarm contact magnet switch (may be by others):

Active Pair

CL = 6" from stop

suggested alarm contact location

A) Mount the alarm contact vertically on the lock edge of the door at approx. 65" from the bottom of the door. We recommend this location as opposed to the traditional top of the door horizontal location. Bringing the alarm contact closer to the main deadbolt (and main prying point) will cause the alarm to ring sooner during an attempted break-in. But for retrofit installation, where the contact may already be mounted at the top of the door, B) the edge of the contact must be less than 3" or more than 9" from the stop of single doors, or outside of 7" from the edge of each leaf of a pair of active doors. 2) Header Depth: The header should be at least 1-1/2" thick to accommodate the 5/8" dia. vertical deadbolt. The top bolt shoots approximately 1" into the header.

~65"

3) Saddle Depth: The saddle should overhang past the door's interior by 1-1/2". The bottom bolt projects approx. one inch into a dust-proof strike (less the gap above the saddle). This will allow room for the dustproof strike to be installed. 4) No Other Locks On Door: The MP4900 is usually the only lock allowed for emergency safety exiting. Refer to local fire and building codes for emergency exit hardware requirements.

5) Direct Power Single Opening Alarm Models (using 49 DPS1): 110vAC will need to be brought to the Alarm/Power Supply, typically installed above the hinge side of the opening.

AG1: Battery Operated Alarm (above) All Securitech alarms are designed for wall mounting, as opposed to door mounting. In the event of an unauthorized opening, the sound of the alarm remains within the facility.

6) Direct Power Multi-Opening Alarm Models (using 49 DPS5): 110vAC is brought to the central alarm mounting location. 3 low voltage wires are run to the keyswitch module at each opening.

Technical Support Guide

Electrical Specifications AG2 & AG3 Hardwired models: require 110vAC (two black wires coming off the transformer) to be installed by a qualified professional. These units include a Gel-cell rechargeable battery for backup in case of a power failure.

Battery for AG2, AG3 Battery Back-up: SLA3-12 AFV 3.4 AH. Test Annually. The backup battery will sound the alarm for longer than four days when fully charged.

Battery for AG1 battery-operated alarm: Standard 9V alkaline battery. Replace annually. Current draw in standby mode is less than 2mA.

Technical Support Guide Q: The key does not unlock the door (from the inside). A: The MP Police Lock 4900 provides the user with a means of emergency escape by immediately releasing the door when the paddle is depressed. The key is not used to retract the bolts from the push or inside of the door. The key is only intended to shunt the alarm for authorized passage. Q: The alarm beeps intermittently A: Sign of low battery. Check or replace the battery Q: The alarm doesn't sound at all A: If the alarm does not sound when the paddle is pressed, take the following steps: o Make sure the key is out of the alarm switch and try again. o If alarm is an on/off type (OA function), rotate the key clockwise once and try again. o Remove the screw that holds the cover in place. Note if the alarm sounds. If it does, there may be problem with the installation wiring. Recheck the installation instructions. o If the switch is a pushbutton type, press it once and install the battery with the cover open and the tamper switch NOT pressed. o Check the battery to make sure it is connected. o For battery systems test or replace with a fresh 9V battery. o For hardwired systems, the LED on the upper left corner of the alarm controller cover should be lit. If not lit, the electrical circuit may be turned off or not connected. Check that the battery is connected. o Check that the fuse on the circuit board is not blown. o Check if the switch that the key cylinder contacts moves freely and is clear of wires. o If the above steps do not make the alarm sound, replace alarm module. Q: The alarm sounds continuously after a power outage or when powered up during installation. (Hardwired models only). A: When the power is turned on, the entire system goes into an alarm mode. ALL parts of the system must be shunted to reset the system. See Power-Up Sheet for more information. If keys are not available see the question below. Q: Alarm sounds continuously for no apparent reason (Hardwired models only). A: Check that LED is lit on Alarm Controller Box. If not lit, the power may have been turned off and the alarm will sound when the backup battery has mostly discharged.

Technical Support Guide Q: The alarm sounds continuously when the key is removed from the alarm module cylinder. A: This is usually a sign that the device is reading an alarm condition. The key silences & shunts the alarm only while the key is in the cylinder and rotated clockwise. This is a momentary switch. Remove the key only when the door is locked and the bolts are extended. The alarm is always active when the key is removed. (With OA models the key-switch turns the alarm on and off). If the key can't be turned and removed from the cylinder without the alarm sounding, then the following steps should be followed in sequence: o Check that the alarm box cover is closed and that the proper screw that holds it in place is installed. There is a tamper switch that the screw depresses and which can be depressed manually. o Check that the exit door(s) is(are) closed and the bolts are all FULLY extended before taking the key out of the alarm. If the exit door is closed with the bolts extended and the alarm sounds when the key is removed then: o If there is a single door to the outside, test the installation by moving the door to 90 degrees making sure the bolts are fully extended: o For Manual locking systems pull back on the paddle. o For Self-locking systems, press the tab at the top of the upper channel and the bolts will extend. o IMPORTANT: Make sure the bottom bolt does not touch the floor. o Test the alarm again. If the alarm does NOT sound then: o Check that the hole in the floor for the bottom bolt is not blocked by debris. If so, clear it and retest. o Check that the door is aligned in the frame so that the bolts extend fully through all the frame holes. o Check the wiring for damage and make sure that it is installed following the installation instructions. o If you have a meter, check continuity at the wire ends leading from the panic device cable to see if you get a change of state when the paddle is depressed. If not, there may be a short in the wires or the switch in the panic device mechanism may be damaged. o If there is a change in state and all connections are OK, there may be a damaged or defective alarm board; consult with the factory. Q: The alarm is sounding and the keys are not available or there is a problem with the alarm that cannot be solved by following the above steps. A: Until you can get the keys or have the alarm serviced: o For Battery Powered Alarms (AG1) remove the battery to silence the alarm until the problem is solved. Alternative: Tape the key-switch or tamper switch as needed. o For Direct Power Alarms (AG2 & 49DPS5) disconnect the backup battery and turn off the 110vAC power. If the 110vAC cannot be turned off easily, newer models have a jumper on the bottom left corner of the main board. (See Photo.) Remove the jumper to silence the alarm. (Scotch tape the jumper to the box cover as it will be needed later. On models without the jumper, please call the factory. 13

Technical Support Guide Q: During power-up the fuse blows whenever power is applied. (Hardwire systems only). A: Check the wiring for shorts. Make sure wiring is connected according to installation instructions. This can also happen if the wiring was not connected and the system was run on battery backup for a long period of time. The Backup Battery was discharged too far and may be damaged or defective. Replace the Battery. Make sure the power is connected and turned on (see the LED on the alarm box cover). Q: Bolt does not stay retracted (Self Locking Models) . A: Top bolt is not holding back the bolts. There is a trigger at the upper channel assembly that holds back the bolts. 1- There should be NO grease or lubrication on the bolt and trigger. 2- If this is a new installation, lift up the bottom half of the aluminum upper channel near the lock body to expose the connector. Note through which slots it is attached and remove the cotter pin. A - If the top bolt does not project, adjust the connection by attaching the connector at different locations in the slotted part. so that it is not under too much pressure. B- If the trigger does NOT hold the bolt back when retracted, remove the upper rod assembly from the door. Lightly slide the end of a large, flat screwdriver between the flat trigger and the top of the channel as far down as possible. Gently bend the trigger away from the channel a little at a time until the trigger holds the bolt in place when it is retracted. Reassemble the device and test.
