Door Opening Controller 3

[BR8770]

Folks, I have a Door Opening Controller (DOC) and I want to install it w/o a doorphone. I will be opening a door with an electric striker which I realize will need another relay. However, I can't find an Installation Guide for the DOC. I looked into TEK-Tips archives and found some correspondence back in '05, but seems as though no one had a installation manual then either.......can onyone help please?

To wire the doc terminals 1&2 12-24 V AC/DC.
connect the first door striker lead to terminal4
connect a jumper from teminal 1 to terminal 5 relay common
connect the remaining door stiker lead to teminal 4 N.O.
Or terminal 6 N.C.
Terminal 7 and 8 is the door phone connection.

Thanks Phasesplitter, but I am trying to use the DOC without a door phone.....possible?

 

[phasesplitter]

How are you going to control it. With a push button?

 

[BR8770]

I hope to control it via a button on an M7310....?

How will they know somebody will be at the door?
Is is a Norstar DOC? if not you may need to use a C.O. port with the relay.
Norstar DOC you can select a code to use via dipswitches on the DOC.

I'm pretty sure that requires a call initiated by the door phone ext. (press 6 by default while on the ring-down call)

Might be cheaper to wire the circuit with a simple make/break switch, and a 12v transformer.

Hey folks...the door is in front of a window with several desks (all of which may or may not be occupied...depends on the time of day or nite). I thought of a button, but then we would have to run wire & conduit to the center of the room. Not too pretty. I like the idea of the CO line. If I had an installation guide for the DOC, I could probably figure out the application.....any leads on an installler guide please? By the way..this forum is teriffic! Thanks for your patience.....!!

agian....what DOC is it? Norstar?

 

[BR8770]

Ah, so sorry...yes it's Norstar. It is not the desktop model made by someone else.

the book that comes with a DOC doesn't give much information that would help you. I gave you the connections. Pins 7 & 8 are data in. Pins 9 & 10 are data out. The door phone is the interface between the KSU and the DOC.

6 is default access code to open door I think.....gven that dipswitches 2 and 3 are on and 1 and 4 are off.

Thanks guys....I guess I need the Door Phone itself then.
The DOC won't work as a stand alone.
