CM5500 COMPUTER MANAGED MORTISE LOCK
The 5500 series lock is a stand-alone, microprocessor controlled, electromechanical locking system. The 5500 employs a heavy-duty mechanical design with fewer
moving parts that a standard mechanical mortise lockset, for ease of installation
and high reliability. It is powered by four, standard AA batteries, providing up to
80,000 activations.
Operationally, the outside lever is normally locked and the inside lever always
retracts the bolt to allow egress. Electronic access control is achieved by entering
an”Access Credential” (magnetic stripe card, code of iButton Key, or HID Prox fob
or card). Electronic access control capabilities are listed below by model. All models are designed to accommodate an emergency mechanical key override.
Standard features of the CM models include up to 1000 user memory, real time
features including time zones and holidays, and audit trail of up to 1000 events.
Optional ATK (audit trail - key override) will note any use of the mechanical key on
the audit trail report. Manual and computer programming is supported by all models. The PRO models are manually programmed to accept up to 100 codes.

INSTALLATION MANUAL
BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
Standard units are shipped from the factory to fit 1-3/4” doors. Verify the door thickness. If the door is not 1-3/4” thick, verify
that the door thickness option was ordered or consult factory.
1. PREP DOOR AND FRAME (IF NOT ALREADY DONE):
A. Determine door hand.
B. Mark the horizontal and vertical centerlines for the lock case (on door edge), strike, lever, and inside escutcheon. Note
that the backset is actually 2.813” (or 2 13/16”). This is very important for proper mounting.
C. Place template on inside of door (opposite the side that the keypad/reader will be on). Line up the correct reference lines
on the template with the edge of the door, depending on the hand (see paper template). The centerline on the door should
line up with the vertical centerline of the template. Use the paper template to mark all holes. (Though the paper template is
the preferred way to prep the door, the dimensions below may be used if a paper template is not available.)
D. Drill required holes. Note that all holes are required except the 3/4” hole just below the 1” hole, this is only required if the
lock has the privacy feature (model 5594).
