10.2.1 Distance
between
units
For reliable operation, the distance between the SR35i and the RF30-EM units
must not exceed 25 metres. In that case a RF9 router/amplifier must be installed.
You can read more about this in the installation guide supplied with the RF9. Note
that electrical interference or noise may also reduce the working range of the
wireless link. See SiPass/Bewator Entro Wireless intstallation manual.
10.2.2 Test mechanical function of RF30-EM
It must always be possible to open the door from the inside.
Check that the PIR sensor will detect a person and activate the electronics. This
means that nothing limits the detection area of the sensor.
The handle on the outside should not be engaged, and should not open the door
until the correct card/code is entered.
When the correct card/code is entered, the handle on the outside should activate
the lock, but only once. As the handle is released, it should again disengage.
If the correct card/code is entered but the handle is not pressed down, the RF30-
EM should automatically disengage the handle after about 4 seconds.
The handle on the outside must not be jammed in any position, and should
spring back up completely after being pressed down.
10.2.3 Offline
mode
In normal operation the host system controls the validity of the cards. If the
RF30-EM loses contact with the system it will operate offline in offline mode. The
yellow LED will flash slowly, if the RF30-EM has never had a connection to the
system.
In this mode the RF30-EM accepts up to 250 cards stored in internal memory.
These are known as Priority Cards and are identical to the priority cards in
SiPass/Bewator Entro. The priority cards are regularly downloaded from the
system when the RF30-EM is on-line (see section 7.7 LED status when
connecting.
If the red LED flashes and the buzzer sounds when reading a card this means that
the card is not valid in offline mode.
10.3 Change
batteries
When the unit’s batteries run flat the RF30-EM will cease to release the latch so
the unit should be fitted with cylinder override. The lock has a backup power supply
that will allow the door to be opened a limited number of times, but the batteries
should be replaced as soon as the low battery warning is noticed. See sections
7.7 LED status, 11.5 Disable/enable buzzer and 13.4 Backup power supply. The
card memory of the RF30-EM is retained while the batteries are flat and while the
batteries are being replaced.
1.
Remove the RF30-EM from the door.
2.
Remove the two batteries from the rectangular shaped holes on the lower part
of the back of the unit (to power off the unit).
3.
Always change both batteries at the same time. See section 4 Technical data.
4.
Re-mount the RF30-EM.
