Triggering a RAS/ single door controller (SDC) relay with an event flag.
This function is particularly useful when adding an egress button or linking an area disarm automatic unlock function to a Single Door Controller.
1. Arming station/RAS needs to be assigned a relay group.
In this example we are using Relay Control Group 10, so RAS 5 is in relay control group 10
(Note: A Relay Control Group MUST NOT be assigned to TS0002, TS0004 or TS0210 16 Area Arming Stations.)
Above: RAS 5 is in relay control group 10
2. Identify the relay number of the group used.
The relay control group used will dictate what relay the SDC is mapped to, so in this case 10 would be relay 73. This is deducted from the Relay Control Group numbering listed Below
(Note: if you use a relay already assigned when it triggers your door will open)
Relay control groups
Relay control group numbers are a way of identifying a group of 8 relays controlled by an RAS. When a relay control group is assigned to a RAS, the open collector output (or "OUT") terminal, follows the first relay number of the relay control group, shown below in bold. Refer to Installer Menu option 3 - Program Arming Stations.
Group Relay Numbers Group Relay Numbers
1 1 to 8 17 129 to 136
2 9 to 16 18 137 to 144
3 17 to 24 19 145 to 152
4 25 to 32 20 153 to 160
5 33 to 40 21 161 to 168
6 41 to 48 22 169 to 176
7 49 to 56 23 177 to 184
8 57 to 64 24 185 to 192
9 65 to 72 25 193 to 200
10 73 to 80 26 201 to 208
11 81 to 88 27 209 to 216
12 89 to 96 28 217 to 224
13 97 to 104 29 225 to 232
14 105 to 112 30 233 to 240
15 113 to 120 31 241 to 248
16 121 to 128 32 249 to 255
3. Map the relay to an event flag.
In this example, Event Flag 100 has been used.
