Signal Switch (55- and 12-55 prefix) to ElectroLynx™ Connector System

80 Series Exit Devices

Function:

The 55- prefix signal switch monitors the touch bar. When the rail is depressed or dogged, the switch is de-activated.

Caution: Disconnect all input power before beginning installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage. All wiring must comply with applicable local electrical codes, ordinances and regulations. Installer must be a trained, experienced service person.

ElectroLynx Connector System Notes:

The system is designed to be installation friendly with quick connectors from the electric hinge through the door to the rail. The only wiring required is to the loose wires on the pigtail harness assembly on the frame side of the electric hinge.

Important: The plug and receptacle connectors are designed to mate and lock together as shown in the figure. Plug the connectors into each other with the locking mechanism aligned as indicated.

Do not force connectors on any other way.
