Introduction

Lock Description

The PowerLever

®

Door Lock is an advanced design electronic lock that oper-

ates using internally-generated power, “PowerStarTM technology”, and includes
a microprocessor and a cylindrical lock mechanism. 

The lock consists of the following major assemblies:

•  

Outside cover assembly - includes a keypad for entry of control data, a
pair of LEDs (red and green) for visual feedback, a beeper for audio feed-
back, and the outside lever with a return of

•  

Inside cover hardware - includes system electronics and the inside lever
with a return of

" to the door (unassembled). 

•  

Cylindrical lock hardware - includes a Grade 1 lock mechanism with free-
wheeling system and stainless steel retractor, a 6-pin standard key cylinder
with tailpiece and two keys (unless prepared for interchangeable core), a

PowerLever Operation

The PowerLever Lock is designed to operate using internally-generated power.
The self-contained PowerStarTM generator is triggered by depressing the out-
side lever. Each 67-degree open and 67-degree restore rotation of the lever
constitutes a charging cycle. A door open operation will require only one charg-
ing cycle if the period of door lever inactivity does not exceed a weekend (ap-
proximately 65 hours) when operating at normal room temperature. Periods of
non-use beyond a weekend will require two charging cycles for a door open
operation. One simultaneous flash of the green and red LEDs accompanied by
a low volume beep indicates that the lock is powered. Each additional depres-
sion of the lever will result in this same response.
