Visonic CL-80 User Manual

CL-80

Outdoor/Indoor Access Control Keypad

1. INTRODUCTION

The CL-80 is a versatile, weather-resistant digital
keypad, designed for outdoor and indoor use. Possible
applications include access control, electrical switching,
and security system arming and disarming.

User access codes ensure that all functions controlled
by the CL-80 are restricted to authorized persons only,
and each code can be assigned its own privilege level.

To improve access management, the CL-80 responds to
56 different access codes - each allocated to a single user
or a group of users.

Installation Instructions

Each of the 56 different access codes may be programmed to energize
either the built-in relay, or the auxiliary output, or both.

Programming is easily carried out via the keypad, and access codes can
be individually added, deleted, or the levels of control revised at any time.
Only the MASTER CODE holder has the privilege to program the unit.

In addition to a 10 A on-board relay, an auxiliary open-collector output with
7 operating modes can be programmed to control additional devices.

A simultaneous dual keystroke action activates the PANIC output, which
can be used to trigger a silent alarm in emergency situations.

LEDs: Green indicates keypad status
Red and yellow are available for optional indication (as required) and

have 1 k ohm series resistors connected.

Operating temperature:

-20°C to 65°C (-4°F to 149°F)

( 3-1/2 x 4-13/16 x 1-1/4 in)

Weight: 200 g (7.14 oz) including rubber gasket
Tamper switch: The dual function tamper switch is designed to

detect attempts to open the unit, or remove it from wall.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1 Mounting

Select a suitable mounting location with a stable flat surface. Remove
the case closure screw from the bottom edge of the keypad, and
remove the keypad assembly from the base. Hold the base in position
and mark the 3 screw locations for drilling.

Note: The Tamper switch will be activated if the front part of the
keypad is removed and also if the base is forced away from the wall.
This is achieved by incorporating a breakaway tab at the bottom right
corner of the base (see Figure 1). It is therefore especially important
to firmly attach this tab to the wall with a long screw.

Fit the base into the rubber gasket and use the 3 mounting screws to
attach the base and gasket to the selected surface.

3.2 Wire Gauges and Routing

Use # 20 AWG or larger for connections between relay and door
strike, control panel or other switching devices. All other connections
are to be made with # 22 AWG or larger. Route the wires through the
slot in the rubber sealing gasket and the recessed entry channel in
the keypads base. Avoid contact between uninsulated wires and the
printed circuit board.

3.3 Connections

IMPORTANT! Before wiring, set jumper JP3 in the position
that corresponds with the power source you are using:

Voltage Selection:
9 - 16 V AC/DC - mount the jumper across the two pins of JP3

22 - 26 V AC/DC - remove the jumper or mount it on a single pin of JP3

The connections to the terminal block are shown in Figure 3, with
each terminal duly identified. Proceed as follows:

A. Connect one lead of the door strike to one of the hardware

(door strike) power supply terminals. Connect the other lead
from the door strike to terminal No. 9 (N.O.) of the CL-80.

Note: If you are using a magnetic door lock, connect one of

the leads to one of the hardware power supply terminals.
Connect the other lead to terminal No. 8 (N.C.) of the CL-80.

B. Connect the other terminal of the door strike or magnetic lock

power supply to terminal 10 (COM).

C. Connect the panic buzzer or relay between terminals 3 (PANIC)

and 7. Observe polarity when using a DC power source.

D. Connect the auxiliary buzzer or relay between terminals 5 (AUX)

and 7. Observe polarity when using a DC power source.

E. Connect the CL-80 power supply leads across terminals 6(–)

and 7(+). Observe polarity

F. Connect the remote request-to-exit pushbutton or PIR

contacts across terminals 4 and 6

G. LED indicators. - to light the red LED, connect 12 VDC across

terminal 11 (+) and 12 (–). To light the yellow LED, connect
12 VDC between terminals 13 (+) and 14 (–).

H. Connect the tamper terminals 1 and 2 to a control panel’s

normally-closed, 24-hour protection zone, or any other system
used to monitor the tamper contacts.

Caution! When operating the CL-80 from AC power, disregard
polarity, but note that external buzzers connected to the AUX or
PANIC outputs will require a separate DC power supply. For proper
operation, the buzzer circuit should be wired as follows:

DC Power supply [–] to CL-80 terminal 6
DC Power supply [+] to Buzzer [+]
Buzzer [–] to AUX or PANIC output (as required).

PANIC and AUXILIARY outputs each include an 18

ohm resistor in series with the terminal. The maximum
permissible current for each output is 100 mA.

that all external relays used are 24-Volt units.

4. OPERATION

The main function of the CL-80 is to recognize valid user codes and
respond according to pre-programmed instructions.

4.1 Keying Format

4.2 Keypad Response

When a valid access code is keyed, the keypad responds by
activating the on-board relay (usually allocated to unlocking the door),
and/or activating the auxiliary circuit. Each of the 56 different access
codes may be programmed to operate the on-board relay, the
auxiliary output or both. The green LED illuminates for as long as the
internal relay remains energized.

4.3 Latching the Relay

For special applications, the relay may be toggled, so that keying the
code once causes the relay to latch, and keying the code again
unlatches the relay.

4.4 Request to Exit

The REQUEST TO EXIT input activates the access control relay to
open the door from inside without keying a code, thereby facilitating
quick and simple exit from the protected area.

4.5 Automatic Reset

When keying user codes, the intervals between digits must not exceed 5
seconds. Should the user exceed this time, or enter a wrong code, an
automatic reset results, requiring the user to wait a few seconds and then
to repeat entry of the security code again.

4.6 Lockout

A penalty lockout is provided to defeat "code-crackers". Three wrong
entries result in a 10 minute lockout, during which an auxiliary output is
activated, but can be reset after 30 seconds by entering a valid user code.

4.7 Access under Duress

If you are forced to access under threat, press the programmed

AMBUSH digit after the last digit of your code. This activates the
PANIC

output without arousing suspicion.

Enter the user code followed by the ambush digit

4.8 Operating Tips

A. Do not wait more than 5 seconds between successive

keystrokes, or else the keypad will reset.

B. To initiate an alarm without opening the door, press

simultaneously. This activates the PANIC circuit which is
usually connected to a silent alarm.

5. PROGRAMMING

Programming should be carried out as soon as installation is
completed. This provides a set of “instructions” which determines
how the keypad will react to various code inputs.

2 DE6217

Programming changes can be made as many times as
necessary, but for security reasons, this operation is restricted to
the "master code" holder (the master user).

5.1 Accessing the Programming Menu

The programming menu is accessible only by the master
user

As soon as code programming takes place, this default code is
automatically replaced by the first newly allocated code - No. 01.

Because user code No. 01 will become the new master code, it
should be assigned to the person in charge of security.

All code allocations should be recorded, and a User Code
Programming Chart - Appendix A, is supplied for this purpose.

Remember! To prevent unauthorized programming it is

important to assign a new master code which should be used
for programming only.

To access the programming menu

The green LED will start flashing slowly, indicating that the
programming menu is active.

While the programming menu is active (green LED flashes slowly),
you can select various programming functions by pressing a number
from 1 to 5 (see Table 2).

5.2 Deleting all User Codes

IMPORTANT! Besides the default master code (code No.1), a specific test
code is programmed in the factory as code No. 2. It is therefore important,
before initial programming, to delete all user codes that may remain in the
memory!

The response will be as follows:

5.6 Selecting the AUX Output Mode

[M] is expressed by a number selected from the mode column in
Table 3. User codes must be authorized to activate the AUX

output.

Mode Description

1 Output is pulsed for 1 second.

2 Output is toggled (latch/unlatch).

3 Output operates concurrently with the relay timer, but stays enabled

for 5 seconds longer than the relay. If toggle mode has been
selected for the relay, the auxiliary output will be enabled for 5 sec.
each time the relay is toggled. This mode does not work for user
codes that are not programmed to operate the relay.

4 Output latches by user codes authorized to trip the auxiliary output,

unlatches by pressing .

5 Output enabled for ten seconds by pressing any key.

6 Output oscillates at the rate of 1 Hz after 3 consecutive code errors.

This condition will persist for 10 minutes, and may be reset only by
entering a valid user code (resetting is possible only after the first
30 seconds).

7 Output turned on by pressing the 1 and 3 keys -simultaneously.

Remains on until both keys are released.

5.7 Deleting the Ambush Digit

If you do not intend to use an ambush digit, it is imperative that
you delete the ambush digit code – to ensure that no previously
programmed digit remains in memory.

5.8 Selecting an Ambush Digit

IMPORTANT: If you have programmed an ambush digit, you must
restrict user codes to seven digits each (or less) and you must
avoid choosing user codes ending with that same digit as the
ambush one.

5.9 How to Quit Programming

while the green LED is flashing slowly

The LED will extinguish.

[ A ] is the desired ambush digit, chosen from 0 to 9.

6. RESETTING THE DEFAULT MASTER CODE

If you forgot or lost the master code (code No.01) and it becomes
necessary to reprogram the keypad, you will have to reset the master
code to the factory default (1234) as follows:

A. Open the keypad's case, uncovering the printed circuit board.

B. Install the jumper across the two pins labeled JP2 (see Fig. 2).

C. Momentarily short circuit the pins labeled JP1 using a screw-

driver or jumper wire.

D. Wait ten seconds, remove the jumper from JP2, and immediately

press 1234#. The green LED will light steadily for two seconds

and will then start flashing slowly, indicating that the programming
menu is active.

Important Note: The master code has temporarily

reverted to 1234. Remember, however, that all other data
programmed previously remains intact!

E. Program a new master code (user code No. 01) immediately, and

record it in a secret, safe place.

If you choose to quit programming at this stage, press # while the
green LED is flashing slowly.
