6. Installation and Setup

6.1. Physical Installation

1. Determine Door Handing: The lock is universal for left, right, in-swing, and out-swing doors. Identify your door's handing before proceeding.
2. Mount the Main Lock Body: Position the main lock body on the door frame or door itself, ensuring it aligns with the strike plate. Mark and drill holes for mounting screws.
3. Install the Strike Plate: Mount the strike plate on the opposing surface (door frame or door) so that the lock bolt can securely engage.
4. Install the External Cylinder: Insert the external cylinder through the designated hole in the door and connect its wires to the main lock body's internal connection port.
5. Secure Components: Use the provided mounting screws to firmly attach the main lock body and strike plate.

6.2. Electrical Wiring

Refer to the wiring diagram below for connecting the electronic lock to your access control system, power supply, exit button, and doorbell. Ensure all connections are correct before applying power.

• Power Supply Connection: Connect the DC12V-18V power supply to the designated terminals on the lock or the access control panel as shown.
• Access Control Unit: Integrate the lock with your RFID access control system by connecting the DAT1, GND, 12V, BELL, OPENSW, PUSH/NO, GND, and +12V terminals as per the diagram.
• Exit Button: Connect the exit button to the PUSH/NO and GND terminals on the access control unit, or directly to the PUSH and GND terminals on the power supply if using a standalone setup.
• Doorbell: Connect the doorbell to the BELL and 12V terminals on the access control unit.
• Electric Lock Terminals: Connect the L-, L+, GND, and 12V+ terminals of the electric lock to the corresponding outputs from the power supply or access control system.

7. Operating Instructions

1. Automatic Locking: The lock will automatically engage and secure the door when it is closed.
2. Unlocking from Inside:
   • Manual Release: Press the manual release button or turn the knob on the inside of the lock to disengage the bolt.
3. Unlocking from Outside:
   • Mechanical Key: Insert and turn one of the provided mechanical keys in the external cylinder to unlock the door.
   • Access Control System: If integrated with an access control system (e.g., RFID reader, keypad), present your authorized credential or enter the correct code to unlock the door electronically.
4. Power Failure Operation: In case of a power outage, the mechanical keys can still be used to unlock the door from the outside, and the manual release will function from the inside.

8. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the lock body regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the stainless steel finish.
• Mechanical Check: Periodically check the lock bolt and strike plate for any obstructions or signs of wear. Ensure the bolt moves freely.
• Wiring Inspection: If accessible, inspect wiring connections annually for any loose or damaged wires.
• Key Cylinder: If the key cylinder becomes stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant (do not use oil-based lubricants).

9. Troubleshooting

• Lock Not Engaging/Disengaging:
  • Check for physical obstructions between the lock bolt and the strike plate.
  • Ensure the door is properly aligned and not sagging.
  • Verify the power supply is active and within the specified voltage range.
  • Inspect wiring connections for looseness or damage.
• Excessive Noise During Operation:
  • Check for proper alignment of the lock and strike plate.
  • Ensure mounting screws are tight.
  • Clean any debris from the lock mechanism.
• Mechanical Key Not Working Smoothly:
  • Apply graphite lubricant to the key cylinder.
  • Check if the key is bent or damaged.
• Electronic Unlock Not Responding:
  • Verify the access control system is powered on and functioning correctly.
  • Check the wiring between the access control unit and the lock.
  • Ensure the correct credential or code is being used.

10. User Tips

• Test Thoroughly After Installation: After completing the physical and electrical installation, perform multiple tests of both electronic and mechanical unlocking mechanisms to ensure reliable operation.
• Consider a Backup Power Supply: For critical security applications, integrating the lock's power supply with an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) can ensure continued electronic operation during power outages.
• Regular Security Checks: Periodically check the physical integrity of the lock and its mounting to ensure it remains securely attached and free from tampering.
• Key Management: Keep track of all mechanical keys. Consider having a spare key stored securely off-site for emergencies.
