SECTION III: TIMER MODE
In this configuration, the device is always energized with a 24 volt input, and a timer circuit is opened or closed to control rail retraction.
A momentary or maintain switch is typically used to perform this operation.
For installations where the power input is cycled to retract the device, refer to SECTION II: POWER MODE.
1. TIMER MODE Installation Instructions
How it works: Rail retracts when timer input circuit is closed.
1. Mount 80- Series exit device using mechanical installation instruction sheet(s) provided.
Note: Ensure proper mechanical function before attempting electrical retraction:
• Verify the push rail can be fully depressed and the latch is fully retracted.
• On vertical rod exit devices, verify that the latchbolts do not enter
hold-back position until the push rail is fully depressed.
• Adjust device mechanically, as required, before applying power.
2. Ensure DIP Switch switch (position 3) disables POWER MODE (Fig. 16). Set to OFF to disable.
3. Connect the ElectroLynx harness in the door (Fig. 17
ElectroLynx TIMER MODE Installation):
a. Plug the 8-pin and 4-pin ElectroLynx connectors from the rail into the 3” ElectroLynx harness or splice into a
non-ElectroLynx harness (Fig. 17 TIMER MODE Installation).
b. Feed the 3” harness through the 1” hole in the door and secure the rail to the door using the mounting bracket
and two supplied screws (Fig. 17 TIMER MODE Installation).
Note: Do not install the end cap until electrical operation is verified in order to confirm LED signaling.
Do not discard the end cap and hardware.

• Filtered and regulated power supply
• Motor operating current: 600mA
• Motor hold current: 250mA
Note: Earth Ground is required for Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
protection unless the metal door and frame are already
earth grounded; otherwise, earth ground wiring is required
