STI 6406 User Manual

Addendum for STI-6406 with Dual Access Control

Description:

This system contains a STI-6400 with a DPDT key switch
to be mounted on one side of a door or wall; and a
similar looking housing, also with a DPDT key switch,
but without an alarm for the opposite side of the door.
An authorized person with a key can disable the alarm
on either side of the door. When disabled, and LED will
illuminate, and the door can be opened without setting
off the alarm. After passing through the door, the
alarm can be armed again from the opposite side.

Installation:

1. Follow STI-6400 mounting instructions and set
switches to the desired positions for alarm timing
and volume.

2. For straight through door or wall installation, mark
the center of the 5/16 inch hole in the mounted
base, then remove the base from the door or wall.

3. Drill a 5/16 inch diameter hole through the door or
wall at the marked location.

4. Align the same diameter hole in the secondary unit
base to the back side of the door or wall and
mount.

5. Route the wire from the STI-6400 unit through the
hole and into the secondary unit.

6. Attach the 6 wires to the terminal block pins 2 thru
7 matching wire colors on the terminal block label.

7. Seal the hole around the wires with an effective
fire stop material, if required.

8. Attach the battery in the secondary unit and install
the cover.

9. Cycle the key switch to be sure the LED’s turn “ON”
and “OFF”. Leave the LED’s “ON” until ready to test
the alarm.

10. Attach the battery to the STI-6400 and install the
cover.

11. Close the door and test.

Operation:

1. With the door closed, turn either key switch to arm

the alarm. The LED’s on both sides of the door
should turn “OFF”.

2. If the door is opened while the LED’s are “OFF”,

then the alarm will sound according to the switch
settings of the STI-6400.

3. To reset the alarm, turn either key to the opposite

position (the LED’s will turn “ON”), close the door
and turn either key switch again (the LED’s will turn
“OFF”).

4. When the system is armed, authorized passage can

be accomplished by turning either key switch until
the LED’s turn “ON”, and remove key. The door can
now be opened without sounding the alarm. When
passage is complete, close the door, turn the key
switch (the LED’s will turn “OFF”). The door alarm
is once again armed.

Warnings

All units are recommended for indoor use, not for outdoor use. Unit must be tested periodically
to verify the life of battery. STI recommends you change the 9 Volt battery twice a year.
Installer may need to purchase a simple audio-meter, typically available at your local electronics
store, to measure the sound in areas where the alarm is expected to be heard during normal
noise environment. Results from this test may prove it beneficial to purchase additional exit
stopper units. When purchasing a remote unit (STI-6403) you will need to periodically test the
connections to make sure audibles function at a sound level to alert staff. Maximum of three
STI-6403 may be used in parallel.

All specifications and information shown are current as of publication and subject to change
without notice.

Warranty Information

· Three year guarantee against breakage of polycarbonate in normal use (one year on electro
mechanical and electronic components).

· Volume Switch JP2 - Sets alarm volume to high 105 dB or low 95 dB.

· Duration Switch JP3 and JP4 - Amount of time alarm sounds after trip. Arming resets at

end of duration if door is closed. Alarm will not reset if in continuous mode; alarm sounds
until battery is drained. Annunciator Mode is a series of 10 short beeps or until door is
closed.

· Trip Delay Switch JP5 - If you wish to ENTER an alarmed door without sounding the horn

immediately, the trip delay will allow 15 seconds for you to enter and de-activate the alarm
with the key switch before the alarm will sound.

· Arming Switch JP7 - This mode is useful when an AUTHORIZED EXIT is required through

alarmed door. In “ON” position immediate arming will set the alarm ready to function as
soon as door is opened. In “OFF” position delay arming will allow 15 seconds for you to exit
through the door without sending alarm signal.

Installation Instructions

Note: STI recommends setting up unit and testing settings prior to mounting.

1. Make sure key switch is in the OFF

external power source a Class II UL
Listed transformer is required. If power
is present at terminal block (Fig. 1) 9V battery
is in no-load on standby power consumption.

5. Mount main unit on or next to door using hardware provided. Reed switch mounting

locations can be moved to one of the four positions shown in Fig. 2. If mounted next to
door, route reed switch wire through knockout in bottom of housing as shown in Fig. 3.

6. Mount magnet on door frame (or door

if unit is mounted next to door) using
screws provided. When mounting on

metal doors or door frames, use plastic
spacers provided. Reed switch and
magnet must be within 3/4” when door
is closed (3/8” on metal door and frame).
Please refer to figures 4, 5 and 6 on page
6 for other mounting options.

7. If installing STI-6402, STI-6403, or

STI-6404 continue to page 7 for more
instructions (Fig. 7 and 8). STI-6402

STI-6404 Double Door with Remote Horn Install Notes

The STI-6404 is a combination unit for double doors with a remote horn. Reference the installation
instructions for the main unit, the STI-6402 and the STI-6403 for complete installation.

STI-6405 Exit Stopper with Momentary Reset

The STI-6405 uses a momentary switch. After initial
installation, unit is always on and you do not have to
remember to turn it on when you leave a protected area.
This model also eliminates having to remember to re-arm it
because it is never off.

RESET

When the alarm is triggered, to silence the alarm, insert the
key and turn completely to the “RESET” position and hold
for 2 seconds, then release. The switch will spring back to
its original position and push the key out. To turn the unit
off, supply power must be removed.
