ATTENTION
ATTENTION notes warn against possible property or
environmental damage.
Explanation of the safety notes
These Operating Instructions include safety notes of the
following types:
Intended use
The Emergency Power Supply is intended for the emergency
opening of locking cylinders of the OMEGA ACTIVE system.
Any other use is considered to be improper and may result in
property damage or even personal injury.
CEStronics GmbH does not accept any liability for any damage
resulting from improper use.

Description
Description
The Emergency Power Supply serves for the emergency
opening of locking cylinders of the OMEGA ACTIVE system in
case of flat batteries. The Emergency Power Supply also
allows you to update the firmware of your locking cylinders.
The Emergency Power Supply has its own power supply
comprised of four commercial rechargeable or nonrechargeable AA batteries to supply locking cylinders with
power. This power supply is sufficient for about thirty
emergency opening operations.
For the emergency opening, the outside knob of the locking
cylinder is opened slightly and the Emergency Power Supply is
connected with the interface. The green LEDs of the locking
cylinder will light up green to signal the connection with the
Emergency Power Supply.
To open the locking cylinder, you need your authorized locking
medium. Hold your locking medium in front of the locking
cylinder and rotate the outside knob by at least one notch.
Without an authorized locking medium, the locking cylinder
cannot be opened.
With the "OMEGA ACTIVE Firmware-Update" software tool you
can transmit firmware updates from the PC into the locking
cylinder via the RS 232 interface.

Inserting the batteries
The four supplied batteries must be inserted into the
Emergency Power Supply.
For this purpose, remove the cover of the battery
compartment on the rear of the Emergency Power Supply.
Insert the four batteries into the battery compartment.
Make sure that you insert them with the correct polarity.
Push the cover again over the battery compartment.
The Emergency Power Supply is now operative.
OMEGA ACTIVE Emergency power supply 10
ATTENTION
After an emergency opening, the locking cylinder is no
longer secured. In this case, you can no longer lock
the locking cylinder from the outside. You can only
lock the locking cylinder after you have inserted a new
battery.
Always insert a new battery into the battery compartment
of the locking cylinder after each emergency opening.
ATTENTION
When the module is pulled out of the outside knob,
the connection cable attached to the reader may be
damaged.
Always pull the module out of the outside knob slowly and
carefully and for no more than ten centimetres.
