Vindicator - Door Configuration

Parameters

To set the "Door Configurations", you first need to understand what each "parameter" represents. Below are the definitions and examples of configurations.
 
Door _______ Type __________
Behind _______
Solenoid _______
Sensor _______
 
Door: This is the identifier, which indicates which door is which. This is not changeable.
Type: This variable determines how the door will operate using the choices as follows:
   1 = Outer Door
   2 = Inner Door
   3 = Deposit Door
   4 = Pedestrian
Behind: Must be used whenever Type 2 is selected. This lets the electronics know which outer door the inner door is behind. Although our safes normally only have one outer door, we do have safes with more then one.
Sensor: Used to tell the electronics which sensor terminal to look at when sensing the status of open /close. Sensor must be indicated when Type 1 is selected.
Solenoid: Tells the electronics which path to follow when energizing the solenoid of the lock .

Typical Outer Door Configuration

The outer door (Type 1, Behind 0) is always Door 1 (Door 1 & Solenoid 1) and has a sensor (Sensor 1).
 
Door 1 Type 1
Behind 0
Solenoid 1
Sensor 1

Typical Inner Door Configuration

The inner door (Type 2) is behind the outer door (Behind 1) and it is the second door (Door 2 & Solenoid 2) with no sensor (Sensor 0).
 
Door 2 Type 2
Behind 1
Solenoid 2
Sensor 0

Notes

1. Please beware that these examples are only guidelines. The actual configuration of any safe may vary from site to site and/or customer to customer. There are some sites that have sensors on the inner doors. Whether or not these sensors are always necessary is a matter of opinion. Generally speaking, if the safe has a mechanism that forces the inner door closed when the outer door is closed, like the Auditlok XL, then the sensors on the inner door are redundant and could be left off. If, for whatever reason, the physical sensors are removed, the "Door Configuration" must be modified to reflect this.
2.
Do not place a jumper across Sensor 1 and Sensor Return in the attempt to temporarily stop the alarm and leave the site that way. By doing so, you will prevent the site from accessing the inner door since the electronics must see that the outer door has opened prior to releasing the lock for door 2. If you find that you need to do a temporary fix, follow these steps: Modify Door 2 to be an Outer Door by changing "Type" to a "1", change "Sensor" to a "2", or any other unused sensor connection, then add a jumper from that connector to "Sensor Return", if a sensor does not already exist. This will then allow access to both doors. The site will have to first open Door 1, then use their key a second time and go to: "Open Door", "Outer" and then choose "Door 2".
