2. INSTALLATION
- Drill the armature plate holes in the door using the sticker template provided.
- Attach the armature plate to the door with the hardware provided as per Figure 2.3.
- With the door closed, mark the door frame at the edge of the armature to properly align the electromagnet to the armature.
- Attach the mounting plate to the door frame using the self-tapping screws provided. Align the mounting plate with the mark from Step 3.
- Insert the wires through the hole in the mounting plate and into the electromagnet unit. Attach the electromagnet unit to the mounting plate with the Allen head fixing screw.
- Screw in the anti-tamper nuts to prevent unauthorized access and make sure to fully tighten the fixing screw with proper tool. A “T” Handle Allen Key.
- The electromagnetic lock must be installed in accordance with the following:
- Life Safety Code ANSI / NFPA 101.
- Local Authority having Jurisdiction.
- Manufacturer's installation instructions provided with each unit.
- Typical wiring method shall be in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations, Section 32.
Note: Install in indoor dry location. Use caution when changing factory default setting. It is recommended to apply a light coat of silicon lubricant to the mating surface on a monthly basis to prevent rust. Manufacturer's Instructions provided in each unit.
NOTICE: All models are recognized to: UL 294 and ULC S533-15 : Standard for Access & Egress. Models CX-91S-06 & CX-91S-12 are listed to: UL 1034, Standard for Burglary-Resistant Electric Locking Mechanism. UL 294, Access Control System Units ** Value not verified by UL.
Remark: All drawings shown are for illustration purpose only. Actual product may vary due to product enhancement.
3. TROUBLE SHOOTING
- Sensor not functioning:
- Improper attachment of electromagnet and armature plate.
- Modification of the PCB
- Door not locked:
- Incorrect wiring or no power from power supply
- Reduced holding force:
- Poor contact of electromagnet and armature. Be sure armature is loose enough that it can fully contact electromagnet along the entire length.
- Mating surface is dusty or damaged.
- Improper input voltage or wire size.
Door Contact Sensor; Max. Contact Rate: 40VDC, 0.25A
LED Status:
- Red = Locked
- Green = Released
- Off = No Input (Only for LED-TB Models)
IMPORTANT! Set the jumper position according to the power input correctly before switch ON the power.

4. REGULAR INSTALLATION GUIDE (FIGURE 2)
Step 1: Fold the CX-91S Template along the dotted line up to 90°. Note: Installation Template Only for In-door E.M. Lock Model 300, 600, 1200.
Step 2: Close the door, position the EM lock mounting location as close to the door upper corner with a gap of 10mm.
Step 3: Place the template against the door & frame and drill holes according to template indications.
Step 4: Drill 2 holes on the frame and 3 holes on the door as indicated on the template.
Step 5: Install the Armature Plate to the door. Note: Actual installation may vary according to door figures.
Step 6: This allows the armature plate to pivot around the armature screw to compensate for door misalignment.
Step 7: Mount the FB600 on the door frame by screwing in the self-tapping screws on the holes as indicated on the template.
Step 8: Once the position is correct, screw in the other screws to permanently mount the plate, and drill the wire cable access hole.
Step 9: Use an Allen key wrench to unscrew the anti-tamper nut and tighten the fixing screws on the mounting plate.
Step 10: Connect to power supply and test unit.
5. LZ BRACKET FOR IN-SWING DOOR INSTALLATION GUIDE (FIGURE 3)
Step 1: Position the L-Bracket mounting location as close to the door upper corner with a gap of min. 10mm; ensure the door can close. The door frame minimum height value "L" is needed to accommodate the bracket Model: 800 LZ (H: 2-1/16" / 52mm), 1200 LZ (H: 2-7/8" / 73mm).
Step 2: Place the bracket and secure with fixing screws.
Step 3: Tighten the EM Lock on the L-Bracket by using the Allen Wrench.
Step 4: Assemble the Z-bracket and ensure the Z-bracket can be adjusted freely, before permanent tightening.
Step 5: Install the armature plate on the Z-Bracket, using the CSK screw provided in the screw pack.
Step 6: Close the door, and position the Z-Bracket by bringing the armature plate close to the EM Lock surface.
Step 7: Turn on the power of the EM Lock, let the armature plate attach to the EM Lock; adjust the position between the Z-Bracket and the door.
Step 8: Once the position is correct, screw in the self-tapping screws on the Z-Bracket to the door.
