Wire Gauge Charts
1. Functions
The MP9800 x MELR can be configured to work in either of two modes:
POWER MODE (see Section 9: Electrical Operation, Section I: POWER MODE)
The device is not energized when locked. When electrified, the device will retract and remain in the retracted position until power
is removed. Power is typically applied through a relay triggered by an access control device.
TIMER MODE (see Section 9: Electrical Operation, Section II: TIMER MODE)
The device is always energized and retraction is triggered by a momentary or maintain switch.
In TIMER MODE:
When the timer circuit is closed using a momentary switch, the device retracts, remains retracted for a set duration, and releases.
The duration of the retraction is set through an onboard timer setting. When the timer circuit is closed using a maintain switch, the
device retracts. The device releases when the contact is opened.
2. Important:
Caution: Disconnect all input power before servicing. Installer must be a trained and experienced service person.
Wiring must comply with applicable local electrical codes, ordinances and regulations.
3. Installation Notes
Earth Ground: Required for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, unless already grounded through the metal door and frame.

1) POWER MODE Installation Instructions
How it works: The MELR module retracts when power is applied and releases when
power is removed.
1. Mount MP9800 x MELR Multi-point device using instruction sheet(s) provided.
Note: Ensure proper mechanical function before attempting electrical retraction:
• Verify the levers can be full rotated and the latch is fully retracted.
• Adjust device mechanically, as required, before applying power.
SECTION I: POWER MODE
In this configuration, the device is not energized when locked. When energized with a 12 or 24 volt input,
the latch(es) will retract and remain in the retracted position until power is removed. Power is typically
applied through a relay triggered by an access control device. (Figures 13-15).
For installations using the onboard timer circuit, refer to SECTION II: TIMER MODE.
5. Apply 12V or 24V according to MELR input requirements (on next page):
Confirm that the LED is blinking, that the system fully unlocks, and that all bolts clear the strikes. Troubleshoot the device if issues
are observed using the steps outlined at the end of the POWER MODE section.
6. Store excess wiring under cover and assemble with provided screws. Avoid pinching wires.
2. Connect the ElectroLynx harness in the door (Figure 15, POWER MODE Installation):
Plug the 8-pin ElectroLynx connector from the MELR into the ElectroLynx harness or splice into non-ElectroLynx harness.
3. Ensure all four DIP switches are in the UP position. (This enables POWER MODE).
4. Connect the ElectroLynx harness to the hinge and secure the electric hinge to door.
Note: Make sure no wires are pinched or damaged in the process. Refer to detailed wiring instructions under POWER MODE wiring.

4) POWER MODE Troubleshooting
Prior to electrical troubleshooting, confirm that the mechanical system properly functions; i.e., that the levers fully retract all latches and rods,
and the door opens freely. Refer to applicable Corbin Russwin MP9800 Series Multi-point Device product instruction sheet to correct
mechanical installation issues.
IMPORTANT: *ALWAYS disconnect power before making any mechanical adjustments to the system.
The MELR module does not move when 24V/12V input is applied:
o Check inputs to confirm proper voltage and wiring orientation.
o Remove cover and confirm that LED is blinking steadily when power is applied. If not, refer to LED signaling.
Note: When configured in POWER MODE, power is released to lock the device (LED will not blink when power is released).
o Confirm all four DIP switches are in the UP position.
The MELR module does not fully retract or MELR module retracts completely and holds but does not open door
o *Verify mechanical installation and correct as necessary:
- Is excessive force required to rotate lever?
- Are latches fully clearing the strikes when mechanically cycled?
The MELR module retracts and unlocks electrically but does not relock:
o Physically disconnect power from MELR and confirm that input is off.
o *Check for mechanical interference (e.g., warped door, lack of shims, misalignment of MELR, etc.).
The MELR module behaves abnormally (multiple cycles, clicking, delayed retraction, etc.):
o Remove cover and confirm that LED is blinking steadily when power is applied. If not, refer to LED signaling.
Note: When configured in POWER MODE, power is released to lock the device (LED will not blink when power is released).
For applications using automatic operator(s): Door(s) fail to unlock before doors begin to open:
o Adjust timing of operator to allow 750ms for the MELR module to fully retract.
For additional installation assistance, please contact 1-800-810-WIRE (9473). When calling,
please provide the following information to improve our service (provide what you can):
o Your name and contact number.
o Corbin Russwin MP9800 Multi-point Device product type.
o Location and identification of the affected opening (e.g., site, building, and door number).
o Corbin Russwin order number (located on product box), if available.
o Power supply manufacturer and rated output (i.e., voltage and current).
o Method of operation (e.g., POWER MODE).
o The number of devices connected to the power supply.

4) TIMER MODE Adjustment (Onboard Timer)
How it works: The 24/12 volt input is always energized and the system retracts when the timer input circuit is closed.
• When the timer circuit is closed utilizing a momentary switch, the latch retracts, remains retracted for a set duration, and releases.
The duration of the retraction is set using an onboard timer setting (0 - 20 second timer adjustment). The countdown begins when the
• When the timer circuit is closed using a maintain switch, the latch retracts. The latch releases when the circuit is re-opened.
Notes:
• 24V/12V supply is constant in TIMER MODE. The duration of retraction is determined by whichever is longer: the maintain switch
closure or the onboard timer delay.
• If more than 20 seconds delay is necessary (exceeding the maximum setting), an external timer delay relay is required (not provided).
• Refer to Figures 18-19 for DIP Switch timer delay settings.

4) TIMER MODE Troubleshooting
Prior to electrical troubleshooting, confirm that the mechanical system properly functions; i.e., that the levers fully retract all latches and rods,
and the door opens freely. Refer to applicable Corbin Russwin MP9800 Series Multi-point Lock product instruction sheet to correct
IMPORTANT: *ALWAYS disconnect power before making any mechanical adjustments to the system.
The MELR does not move when 24V/12V input is applied:
o Check inputs to confirm proper voltage and wiring orientation. When configured for TIMER MODE, 24V/12V must be constantly
applied and the timer circuit must be closed to cycle the lock.
o Remove end cap from MELR and confirm that LED is blinking steadily when power is applied. If not, refer to LED signaling.
Note: When configured in POWER MODE, power is released to lock the lock (LED will not blink when power is released).
The onboard timer duration adjustment is not working:
o Remove power when making adjustments to timer delay settings (DIP Switches).
o When a momentary signal is applied to the timer circuit, the circuit must be reopened for the timer to function.
The MELR module does not fully retract or MELR module retracts completely and holds but does not open door
o *Verify mechanical installation and correct as necessary:
- Is excessive force required to rotate lever?
- Are latches fully clearing the strikes when mechanically cycled?
The MELR module retracts and unlocks electrically but does not release. System does not relock:
o Confirm that the TIMER MODE contact is opened (the MELR module will remain depressed until the contact is opened and the
delay has expired).
o Physically disconnect power from MELR (while electrically retracted) to verify if the issue is mechanical.
o *Check for mechanical interference (e.g., warped door, lack of shims, misalignment of MELR, rod, etc.).
MELR behaves abnormally (multiple cycles, clicking, delayed retraction, etc.):
o If a momentary contact is applied to the timer circuit, adjust the onboard timer to a longer duration.
o Remove cover from MELR and confirm that LED is blinking steadily when power is applied. If not, refer to LED signaling.
For applications using automatic operator(s): Door(s) fail to unlock before doors begin to open:
o Adjust timing of operator to allow 750ms for the MELR to fully retract.
o If a momentary contact is applied to the timer circuit, adjust the onboard timer to a longer duration to prevent the lock from
locking prior to operator actuation.
