The CL-8 is a stand-alone digital keypad for access control applications.
This unit is weather-resistant (IP54) for outdoor / indoor use. It activates
a built-in, high-powered relay and operates from a 12/24 V AC or DC power
supply.
The CL-8 permits up to 56 individual access codes. Authorized users can
control applications such as
electrical locking, electrical switching and arming/disarming alarm systems. Unauthorized
entry is prevented by a penalty timer that locks the keypad for 30 seconds
after three consecutive invalid code entries.
A special request-to-exit (REX) input is inlcuded.
Most often, REX signals are used with mag locks for a person exiting the door.
Upon exiting, the person will press a button or a touch bar to signal an exit request.
This signal runs through the keypad then unlocks the door (mag lock).
In addition to access control, the CL-8 can be integrated with an alarm
system for enhanced security.
The unit can arm or disarm an alarm system from the keypad.
An ''Ambush'' feature allows a person in distress to set off a silent alarm.
This can be accomplished be selecting a specific code that initiates the panic alarm.
A better method is available that does require users to remember a separate ''Ambush'' code.
This is the addition of a specific digit that can be added to a user code to signal an ''Ambush''.
For example, if all users are assigned 4-digit codes, a 5th digit can be designated
as the ''Ambush'' code. A user entering ''1-2-3-4'' could add ''9'' after the last digit
to set off the silent alarm.
