CAUTION Before connecting any device at the installation site, verify input voltage using a multimeter.
Many power supplies and low voltage transformers operate at higher levels than listed. Any input voltage
exceeding 10% of the solenoid rating may cause severe damage to the unit and will void the warranty.
Preparing the Strike
For 12 VDC, the Plug In Connector (pigtail)
marked “12 VDC” should be used; for 24 VDC,
the pigtail marked “24 VDC” should be used.
• SELECT the appropriate pigtail that
matches system power and electrically
CONNECT as illustrated in Diagram 1.
• IF no connector is present,
THEN CONFIGURE the wires
as shown in Diagram 2.
• IF using the Latchbolt Monitor (LBM)
or Latchbolt Strike Monitor (LBSM),
THEN REFER to Diagrams 5 and 6 to
complete wiring (see page 3).
Verifying the Operation Mode
The HES 9800 | Adams Rite 7800
Electric Strike is pre-set for FAIL SECURE
OPERATION as shown in Diagram 3.
• VERIFY that both keepers are in
FAIL SECURE OPERATION.

Converting the Operation Mode
There are two Selector Stop Pins, one on the left
side and one on the right side. Both Selector Stop
Pins must be repositioned (as shown in Diagram
4) to convert the strike to FAIL SAFE OPERATION.
IN FAIL SAFE OPERATION: Both keepers
should be unlocked without power but
locked when power is applied.
• To convert to FAIL SAFE OPERATION,
REMOVE the Selector Stop Pins on
each side of the strike body using
the provided 5/64" hex key.
• MOVE the Selector Stop Pins to the FAIL
SAFE OPERATION position (towards the
center of the strike) as shown in Diagram 4.
• TIGHTEN both Selector Stop Pins after
they have been moved to the FAIL SAFE
OPERATION position using the 5/64” hex key.
FAIL SAFE OPERATION mode should not be used
in fire rated or windstorm-resistant applications.
