CAMDEN CX-12 Installation Instructions Manual

Section 1__________________

General Description

The CX-12 is the latest generation multi-purpose
timer. It is designed to be versatile yet user friendly
with easy to understand
adjustments. (It supersedes Model CX-11 Ultra)
Used as a make/break relay (or Switching Network) it
eliminates the binding of locked automatic doors, by
delaying the door operator until the strike or
electromagnet (de) activates first.
A new feature of this model is the ability to select one
of 4 Modes of operation – momentary; maintained
with Relay 1 held; maintained with Relay 2 held; and
bi-directional door sequencing (
In the Momentary position, even a stuck switch input
will allow the door to time out and close, thereby
providing security to occupants.
however, still operate normally if one of the other
inputs is activated. Essentially, it ignores the faulty
activation source, as all inputs are isolated.
The inputs to the CX-12 may be either dry or wet
(powered), meaning that 3-terminal radio receivers
may be connected directly to the CX-12 without fear
of malfunction.
SEE DIAGRAM 01
Additionally, we provide a direct connection from an
apartment interphone panel. Only Relay #1 (strike)
will operate when a voltage is applied to this input. A
vestibule courtesy switch will be energized for the
time set by Pot. 1.
SEE DIAGRAM 03 a or b.
Select Relay 1 Maintained for an Access Control
application. When a maintained signal is applied to
input, the lock will remain energized, while the
WET 1
input allows a wall switch to open the door. An
DRY 2
input on will always unlock and open the door.
DRY 1
SEE DIAGRAM 02b.
Select Relay 2 Maintained if you are connecting the
CX-12 to a fire alarm panel, or to a presence sensor.
In this mode the lock will fire momentarily but the
operator relay will be held in as long as the input is
maintained.

Installation Instructions
For latching (ratchet or alternate action) functions, we
recommend our Model CX-1000/78 multi-purpose
timer, or Model SA-1 Switching Network.
IMPORTANT: Do not apply power to the unit until
you have read the instructions fully and made the
required adjustments.

Installation

Mounting

The LED's are visible through the wrap-around
sleeve, which also has cutouts for adjusting the
potentiometers, and setting the dip-switch. Once the
unit has been adjusted, it may be tucked up into the
operator header or affixed using the supplied Velcro.

Wiring

Wiring of this unit is dependent on the mode desired,
however the following
Note: Do not wire Safety devices to the CX-12.
If installed, wire your safety device directly to the
operator control box as per usual.
CAUTION: Do not apply power to the unit until all
secondary wiring is complete, and dip-switches have
been set.
Both relay outputs are Form C and are rated at 3
amps maximum. Use relay # 1 for the strike or
electromagnet. Generally the N.O. & COM. terminals
(#3 & 4) are used for a strike, and COM & N.C. (#4 &
5) are used with an electromagnet.
The door operator will be wired to relay #2
terminals (#6 & 7).
COM
application, door 1 is relay #1, and door 2 is relay #2.
The unit will operate on 12 or 24 volts, AC or DC.
Connect to Terminals 1 & 2, which are non-polarity
sensitive.
