GV-EL124S Electric Strike
Featured with a built-in door status sensor, the GV-EL124S is a fail-secure electric strike, but
it is field convertible from fail secure to fail safe. It can be mounted either right or left
reversibly on the doorjamb, providing remote release of a locked door.

Installation
1. Prepare the doorjamb per drawing.
Figure 1
2. Install the mounting brackets to the doorjamb by using the #8-32 x 1/2” flat-head screws
and the pressed metal nuts (Figure 2). Do not tighten yet.

3. Spacers are provided to ensure the final assembly of faceplate into the doorjamb. Add
one of spacers between the doorjamb and the mounting bracket when faceplate extends
beyond the doorjamb. When the faceplate sets inside the jamb, spacers must be added
between the mounting bracket and the tip bracket. Make sure the clearance hole in the
spacer aligns with the hole in the mounting bracket.

4. Connect the wires from the low voltage side of the transformer to the black wires of the
electric strike.

5. Install the electric strike to the doorjamb by using the #10-32 screws and the lock
washers (Figure 2).
6. Tighten the #8-32 flat-head screws to hold the mounting brackets to the doorjamb (Figure
2).
7. To prevent strike from spike, connect the Varistor between the input power wires (Figure
3).
8. To modify fail-safe to non fail-safe or vice versa.
A. Unscrew the electric strike as illustrated below.
B. Reverse the solenoid to the opposite side and then close.

Connecting to the GV-AS Controller
To connect the electric strike to the GV-AS Controller, follow the steps below. Here we use
the GV-AS400 Controller for example.
1. To connect the power between the electric strike and the GV-AS400, refer to the diagram
as below.

Connect one black wire of the electric strike to COM on GV-AS400, connect the other
black wire of the electric strike to the (-) point on the external power supply, and connect
the (+) point on the external power supply to NO on GV-AS400.
2. To connect the sensor to the GV-AS400, connect the Yellow wire of the sensor to the
Input of the GV-AS400, and connect the White wire of the sensor to the Ground of the
GV-AS400.
