Device characteristics
The AL200 is an electronic swinghandle for ICT cabinets. It allows opening of cabinet doors in a standard mechanical way and by electrical remote
control. It can operate with any access control system. Together with optional card reader it can also work as a stand-alone access control system.
Thanks to the installed cylinder, it is also possible to open it in an emergency with a key.
Basic features:
Possibility to work autonomously or in the access control system.
Two connectors providing control and status signals of the handle and for the optional fid card reader.
Equipped with the optical sensor of the handle position.
Three-color LED signalling the operation status of the swinghandle.
Emergency key override.
Available inserts for the master key system.
For use with indoor cabinets.
Installation in a standard 150x25mm cut out.
Can be installed in a single and multi-point locking system (requires additional elements - cam or cogwheel mechanism, which should
be ordered separately).
1.3
Working modes
In the current version (manufacturing date from Q2 2022, see chapter 6 Accessories), the handle can work in one of three modes:
1. Standard mechanical handle
If the electronic opening functionality is not used, the handle works as a standard mechanical handle
opened with a key. This solution is used when the cabinet is to be equipped with access control at a
later time.
2. Stand-alone access control system
Any card reader or keyboard with Wiegand interface can be connected directly to the handle. The
handle together with an optional reader creates an autonomous access control system. It is possible
to assign 63 identifiers (cards or PIN codes) of users who will be able to open the handle. Read more
in chapter 4 Standalone mode.
3. Work in the access control system
In this mode, the handle works only as an electronic mechanism that opens the cabinet. It is
compatible with any access control system. The external access controller controls the opening of
the handle. Information about the status of the handle (tilted/not tilted) can be transferred to the
superior controller. Read more in chapter 5 Operation mode in the access control system.
