Doors | Function Outputs

For more information and programming instructions, see Application Note 336: Programming Function Outputs in Protege GX and Protege WX.

• Function 1-3 Output / Output Group: This output or output group will be activated when the door is unlocked. Up to three function outputs can be programmed for each door, operating independently. These can be used to activate additional mechanisms or logic when the door is unlocked, such as bypass shunts or automatic door pumps.

  By default, the function outputs are activated for the set activation time when the door is unlocked by any method. The options below can modify this behavior.

• Function 1-3 Activation Time: The duration (in seconds) that the function output will be activated for when the door is unlocked. When the activation time is set to 0, the function output will be activated indefinitely.

  When the door is latch unlocked, the function output will be activated until the door is locked again. After the door is locked the function output will remain on for the programmed activation time, then will be deactivated.

  The maximum function output activation time is 128 seconds.

  This setting overrides the Activation Time set in the output programming.

• Activate On Access: When this option is enabled the function output will only be activated when the door is unlocked by access. It will not be activated when the door is unlocked by other methods such as schedule, area or programmable function.

  This option can be combined with Activate On REX/REN below.

• Activate On REX/REN: When this option is enabled the function output will only be activated when the door is unlocked by REX or REN. It will not be activated when the door is unlocked by other methods such as schedule, area or programmable function.

  This option can be combined with Activate On Access above.

• Deactivate on Door Open: When this option is enabled the function output will be deactivated immediately when the door is opened. If the door is not opened the output will still deactivate after the normal activation time.

  This feature does not operate while the door is latch unlocked.

• Deactivate on Door Close: When this option is enabled the function output will be deactivated immediately when the door is closed. If the door is not closed the output will still deactivate after the normal activation time.

  This feature does not operate while the door is latch unlocked.

• Recycle Time on Access: When this option is enabled, unlocking the door by access again when the function output is still on will reset the function output's activation time. This allows users to extend the time that the function output is activated.

  Activate On Access must be enabled to use this feature. In addition, you must enter the command RecycleDoorTimeOnAccess = true in the General tab.

• Recycle Time on REX/REN: When this option is enabled, unlocking the door by REX again when the function output is still on will reset the function output's activation time. This allows users to extend the time that the function output is activated.

  Activate On REX/REN must be enabled to use this feature. In addition, Always Allow REX and Recycle REX Time must be enabled in the Inputs tab.
