Conflict of objectives emergency exit
Emergency exits enable persons in case of an emergency to leave a danger
area on the quickest way. Because these doors may not be closed, however,
sometimes they will be used for e.g., in big stores by unauthorized persons as
a hatch for stolen goods or something like that. The outcome of this is a
continuous conflict of objectives.
Troubleshooting
The emergency exits can be efficiently protected against unauthorized use
with our electronic alarm system. For the authorized use the door can be
activated with a key. FWS2002 allows settings like automatic activating and
automatic activate delaying. With it the ordinary handling with the alarm
system can be made easier. Comfortable additional functions enable to realize
many special wishes.
HERMES doesn`t use
additional mechanical door locks, because in
emergencies person at risk, which were anyway often confused (shock
reaction), should not burden with additional inhibition thresholds.
However, we advice, to mark secured doors clearly with a sign.
In individual cases it can be advisable
to bolt the doors electronically. The
device allows the automatic control of an efficient magnet clamp. Follow,
nevertheless, the legal regulations!
Control elements and equipment
The procedure of switching the door surveillance ( On / Off ) occurs via a key
switch. The door control and all other control tasks takes over the FWS2002.
Special requests like automatic activating and automatic activate delaying
have to be set up in the device by an expert. The settings should be noted in
these instructions.
Visual and acoustic signals
Operating state:
visual: green LED = on
door activation:
visual: yellow LED = on
(free for authorized use)acoustic: one tone per minute
surveillance(stand-by) visual: yellow LED = off
acoustic: mute
in case of alarm:
visual: red flash lamp
acoustic: pulsating, loud alarm siren
Note: Acoustic signals can be clamped by an expert in case of request by
the user.
Control element key-operated switch:
(profile cylinder lock ,for the authorized activating of the doors and the
deactivating of the alarm signal)
The key can be turned around several times in the same direction without
damaging the device. The lock has a magnetic switch contact. Therefore,
turning of the key you feel only little resistance. You will fast get used to the
new switch behaviour. Unintentional destroying of the mechanical contact
switch, which is to be found frequent with older devices, is excluded by the
design of the lock! It is optimum, if you pull off the key after every switching, or
turn back at least in the suitable „0 “-position. With it you avoid unintentional
switching functions and false alarms.
