In the case of an A-TS with push handle 
limiter, it is possible to block the door lock in 
the basic position by a 360° rotation of the 
key (in the closing direction) or to unlock it 
(against the closing direction). If the 
cylinder has been locked, the handle is also 
blocked from the inside and a motorised 
release is not possible.

In the case of an A-TS without a push handle 
limiter, the locking function of the cylinder is 
deactivated. The handle cannot be blocked 
and motorised unlocking is always possible.
