COMPONENT LOCATION DIAGRAM

OUTPUTS

• Remote LED - (located on TS-1)
Output for a remote Bi-color LED,
output follows LED on Face Plate.

• Door Status Relay - follows the Door
Contact Input, regardless of alarm or
bypass condition.

• Door Prop Alarm Relay - changes
state during a Door Prop
(Door Held) Alarm condition.

• Intrusion & Tamper Alarm Relay -
changes state during an Intrusion

is lost.

DESCRIPTION

The CX-DA400 provides complete monitoring of access control points by
offering you prop/door held open and intrusion/door forced open detection.
These alarms are designed to complement card reader and access control
systems and will interface with electronic locks, produce audible warnings
and reduce nuisance alarms by encouraging user compliance with access
control procedures.

CX-DA400 Door Prop Alarm Installation Instructions

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
FOR EASY CONFIGURATION

THE DEFAULT SETUP IS FOR ACCESS CONTROLLED,
AND EMERGENCY EXIT APPLICATIONS.

• This unit may be connected to power and a closed-loop
Door Input and be ready to work immediately for the
Default application.

• A Voltage Sense input used with a Mag-Lock, and/or a N/C Dry
Contact Shunt input will require additional jumper conguration

(J2 and/or J3 respectively) and is covered in Step 3 Pg. 4.

• The unit is easily congured for a stand-alone Door Prop
application by removing the Intrusion Detection jumper.

(LED will always be Green when Intrusion Detection is disabled.)

TIMER SETTING DEFAULTS: (Step 4 Pg.4)

• Silent Time 5 seconds;

• Alarm Delay Time 5 seconds

• Auto Reset Time 5 seconds

• Shunt Delay 20 seconds

See text for Feature Description and Setup info.

TERMS USED IN THIS INSTRUCTION

N/C DOOR CONTACT - is a “closed-loop” circuit which goes open

when the door is opened.

SHUNT INPUT - is a dry contact Valid User Input provided by an
Access Control System or a PIR / REX device.

DMA - Door Management Alarm (i.e.: CX-DA400)

Normally Energized - in reference to a Mag-Lock or other locking

device where power is removed to unlock.

Normally De-energized - in reference to a Door Strike or other
locking device where power is applied to unlock.

CX-DA400

Figure 1

• Tamper Alarm (cannot be reset or bypassed)
A) To Enable feature cut cable tie on Tamper Switch located on
standoff (Component Location on reverse. (CX-DA401 only)

INTRUSION DETECTION

2

A) Jumper 4 is ON for Access Control and Emergency Exit Only
applications.
B) Jumper 4 is OFF for Door Prop/Held applications without Access
Control.

NOTE: If OFF, LED is Green
except during a Door Prop Alarm.
If OFF, Go to Step 4-Timer Settings. (Skip Step 3)

1

DOOR SUPERVISION, AND TAMPER

• Connect N/C Door Contact to TS1 7&8.

• If resistors are installed for Door Supervision:

A) place Jumper 1 ON and put resistors at door switch as shown in
Figure 1.
B) If unused, leave Jumper OFF and use a closed-loop Door Switch
circuit.

ACCESS CONTROL

3

• VOLTAGE SENSE monitors Lock Power as “Valid User” input on
TS1 (3&4)
A) If unused, Jumper 2 must be OFF.
B) If used, select: Normally Energized (Jumper 2 ON); or, Normally
De-Energized (Jumper 2 OFF)

VOLTAGE SENSE
EXPLAINED - This

input samples the
voltage to a Mag
Lock (J2 ON) or a
Door Strike* (J2
OFF) and accepts a
change in voltage
as a valid user
input. *Normally
de-energized.

• SHUNT INPUT detects a Dry Contact input for each valid access.
TS1 (1&2)

A) If unused, Jumper 3 must be ON
B) If used, Select:
Jumper 3 ON for N/O input; or Jumper 3 OFF for N/C input

Page 3 of 6

• SHUNT RECYCLE (see description below)
A) Jumper 5 is ON
B) Jumper 5 is OFF

SHUNT INPUT
EXPLAINED - This

input from a PIR
or Access Control
system provides
user validation.

CX-DA400 Door Prop Alarm Installation Instructions

• SILENT TIME SELECT begins when the door is opened
by a valid user. (see Timer Setting Table on reverse)

A) Timer has two ranges selected with Jumper 9;

• Normal - 0 seconds to 2.5 minutes (Jumper OFF)

• Extended - 3 minutes to 90 minutes (Jumper ON)

B) After selecting appropriate range, turn dial to SET #
for the Silent Time period desired for your application.

• ALARM DELAY SELECT begins on the expiration of the
Silent Timer. Warning Alarm sounds locally to alert user.

A) Turn dial to SET # on table (see reverse) for the time
you want the Warning (beeping) alarm to sound (prior to triggering
the Door Prop Alarm Horn and Relay).

• AUTO RESET TIME SELECT is the minimum time the
Horn, LED and Relays are on following an alarm condition.

NOTE: Alarm will continue for as long as the door is open

A) Turn the dial to SET Timer (0 seconds to 5 minutes,
or Manual).

POWER

5

• POWER - Connect 12-24 VAC/DC to TS1 11&12.
Not polarity sensitive.

SHUNT RECYCLE EXPLAINED -

• When Shunt Recycle is Enabled (ON), a Shunt Contact or Voltage Sense Input
during the Alarm Delay warning period (beeping) will reset the Silent Time

Timer. Shunt Recycle gives the User the ability to Hold the door indenitely by

repeating a valid input during each Alarm Delay warning.

• When disabled, only a Key or Bypass input will reset the DMA.

TIMER SETTINGS SEE TABLE ON REVERSE

4

• The SHUNT DELAY TIMER begins after a Valid User input (prior to
door being opened) and if door is not opened the DMA will reset
when timer expires. Cancels upon door opening.

A) Shunt Delay works only with Intrusion Detection enabled.
B) See table on Back Plate for Jumper 7&8 setting detail.

OUTPUTS (FORM-C)

6

• DOOR STATUS RELAY
TS2-22,23,24 changes state when the
Door Input changes. Used to monitor
changes in Door Contact status.

• DOOR PROP ALARM RELAY
TS2-19,20,21 changes state when a
door is held open beyond the Silent and
Alarm Delay time, combined.

• FORCED DOOR/TAMPER ALARM
RELAY

TS2-16,17,18 changes state when a
door is forced or a tamper condition
exists (Door Supervision/Tamper
Switch).

• BYPASS/KEY SWITCH
STATUS RELAY

TS2-13,14,15 changes state during Bypass (TS1 9&10) and Key
Switch Inputs. Used to monitor for changes in Bypass status.

Page 4 of 6

ADDITIONAL OUTPUT INFORMATION

• Each of the Output functions offers the availability
of monitoring a Normally Open or a Normally
Closed Dry contact.

• Each contact’s state will change to follow the status
of the monitored function.

• To combine multiple outputs, connect N/O contacts
in parallel, or N/C contacts in series.
See diagrams at right. The use of any/all Outputs
is optional.

• If power is removed from the CX-DA400, each contact in it’s normal
state (powered), will change state. Example: Door Status will appear as
if the door
has been opened; Alarm and Bypass contacts will appear as if an alarm
or bypass condition exists.

HORN VOLUME -

Jumper 10 is used
to set the volume of
the sounder.
ON = 103db
OFF = 96db

TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS

• Horn won’t Reset - Verify Tamper Switch is closed; Verify
Door Supervision Jumper is correct for application; Check
Door Contact Resistors are installed as per Step 1 if Door
Supervision is enabled.

• LED always Green - Normal condition when Jumper 4 is OFF;
Verify Shunt Contact & Voltage Sense jumpers are correct for
your application; Verify Key Switch is Vertical and Bypass Input
is open.

• Alarm when Door Opens - Verify that SO&S1 Jumpers and
Silent Time are set greater than 0 sec.; Verify Intrusion Jumper
is set correctly for application.

• Clicking Output Relays - Verify Jumper 6 (Reserved) is OFF.
