Electronic Gate Lock
IEGL
Description
The IEGL is a low voltage motor driven lock suited for securing vehicle and pedestrian gates. It is supplied with a matching strike plate and with a
rating of IP65, it can be installed externally or internally. A solid 18mm diameter stainless steel bolt pin ensures the highest strength while a bolt pin
stroke of 35mm offers flexible installation.
Integrated electronics provide complete control over the lock and offer an array of features;
• Multi–voltage input (12-24VDC)
• Multiple locking / unlocking attempts to correct misaligned doors
• Selectable automatic locking when the gate closes
• Fail Safe / Fail Secure user selection with a single switch
• Gate position monitoring
• Bolt locked and Bolt unlocked monitors
The lock incorporates a keyed manual override and wiring can be run securely through the locks base or externally through a 20mm wiring gland
(not supplied).
Included in the box are 4 x AA batteries. Because of the various fitting locations of the IEGL, no mounting bolts are supplied for the strike. The
mounting holes in the strike are 8.5mm slotted holes so accept M8 size bolts.
Pre - Installation Assessment
Before the lock can be installed, consider its location and orientation. The IEGL can be mounted horizontally or downwards vertically but it
cannot be mounted vertically locking upwards. Mounting it in this way can allow water to penetrate that lock and will void the warranty.
Depending on the chosen mounting position, spacers or packers may need to be made and used.
When positioning the strike, it is important to achieve a reasonable level of alignment with the bolt pin as to ensure correct locking and
operation. The hole in the strike has a significantly larger diameter than that of the bolt pin, however installing the strike so the bolt pin goes into
the hole centrally is best as it will allow for movement of the door over time.
There are three magnets in the strike which offer the flexibility of mounting options and with the symmetrical design of the lock, the strike can
approach from either the right, left or bottom face of the lock.

Lock mounted to the ground. Lock mounted to the gate frame horizontally.
Lock mounted to the gate frame vertically down. Do not mount the lock vertically up.

After the positions of the lock and strike are determined, establish where to run the wires and also decide on what feedback is required from the
lock. There is a total of eleven available connections on the lock; three are compulsory and eight are optional.
The three essential connections are; Positive (+), Negative (-) and Control (CL).
The eight optional connections all provide feedback about the locks state; Gate Position (open/closed), Bolt Locked Position and Bolt Unlocked
Position. If desired, these can be integrated into an access control or alarm system to provide full monitoring.
Once the number of wires and their destination is determined, a decision on how the wires will enter the lock must be made. They can either
come in though a 20mm wiring gland at the rear of the lock (not supplied), or through a hole in the lock base which will ensure the wires can be
hidden in the floor or wall.
Finally, the correct wire gauge needs to be chosen to ensure a minimal voltage drop. The correct wire gauge is important when connecting the
power wires (+ and -) to the lock, as voltage drop across these wires can limit the locks operation and prematurely deplete the batteries. For all
the remaining connections, a lower gauge wire can be used as these are only signal wires.
Solid core “telephone” wire is not recommended.
The following chart shows the appropriate wire gauge for a range of distances between the lock and power supply.

Pre - Installation Assessment (continued)
Installation
A typical gate lock installation sees the lock mounted to the fence post while the strike is mounted on the gate to the right or left of the lock.
Coach bolts would be used to secure the lock and strike.
1. Mark the locks position
• Locate the lock in the desired position and using a pen / pencil
mark the three mounting hole locations through the lock base
2. Drill the locks mounting holes
• Use a M8 drill bit to drill the three mounting holes in the fence
post. Make the holes at least 70mm deep
If running the wires through the base, mark and drill the wire hole.
3. Secure the lock in position
• Push the bolts through the fence post and position the lock over
the protruding bolt ends. Place nuts on the three bolts and tighten
them to secure the lock to the post
4. Mark the strikes position
• Locate the strike in the correct position and using a pen / pencil
mark the three mounting hole locations through the strike
5. Drill the strikes mounting holes
• Use a M8 drill bit to drill the three mounting holes in the gate.
6. Secure the strike in position
• Push the bolts through the gate post and position the strike
over the protruding bolt ends. Place nuts on the three bolts and
tighten them to secure the strike to the gate
7. Wire the lock
• Using a screwdriver and following the connection guide on the
printed circuit board, connect the required wires to the lock
8. Cover the lock
• Position the cover over the lock and push it down and forward. Use
the keyed cam lock in the back of the cover to secure it in place

Wiring
Connect the IEGL as per the chart below. The three power connections are vital for the operation of the lock whilst the eight monitor
connections are outputs supplied to offer feedback if desired.
There are two options available when running wires into the IEGL; they can be brought in through a 20mm wiring gland (not supplied) in
the rear of the cover, or run discreetly through the hole in the locks base.
Running wires out of the lock via the hole in the base ensures a more weather proof and secure installation as the wires can be concealed.
If the preferred option is to use a 20mm wiring gland, a hole is available in the rear of the cover to achieve this. This hole is covered by a
factory fitted blank held in place by a M3 screw that can be removed.

Operating Configuration
Operation
The operating configuration of the IEGL controls how the lock will function and there are several settings available. There are four dip
switches on the printed circuit board with three being used to configure the lock and the fourth for diagnostic purposes. The dip switches
are located on the top of the printed circuit board and can be set as per the following table.
The operating scenarios detailed overleaf stay the same regardless of whether the IEGL is configured in a Fail Safe, Fail Secure or Fail
Maintained state. The state of the lock is only relevant in the event of a total power failure.
Both scenarios assume that the control signal is open at the start of the operation sequence as a maintained connection will cause the lock
to stay unlocked indefinitely.
* Assuming the batteries are fitted.
** Only available if Auto re-lock (2) is ON.
*** Should only be activated in the event of a failure.
1
ON Fail Safe Operation In the event of a power failure the IEGL will unlock*
OFF Fail Secure Operation In the event of a power failure the IEGL will lock*
2
ON Auto re-lock on IEGL will automatically lock when the door closes
OFF Auto re-lock off IEGL only locks when the user desires
3
ON Timed re-lock on IEGL will re-lock after one minute if an unlock signal is given
and the gate remains closed**
OFF Timed re-lock off IEGL will never re-lock if an unlock signal is given and the gate
remains closed
4
ON Diagnostic mode on IEGL goes to a service mode to output information***
OFF Diagnostic mode off IEGL operates as normal
The fail state of the IEGL is determined by the selection of switch 1; however there is an additional state that can be used if desired. With no
batteries installed the lock will default to Fail Maintained. In this configuration and in the event of a power failure, the lock will stay in the position
it was in before the power was removed. With the batteries fitted however, selecting Fail Safe or Fail Secure ensures that the IEGL will move to the
selected state if the power does fail.
It is recommended that Auto re-lock be ON in most installations. The ability of the IEGL to sense the gates position and automatically lock when
it is closed is paramount to increasing security as it eliminates the need for the user to do so. If Auto re-lock is not selected the IEGL operates on a
toggle method. In this configuration an activation of the control signal will cause the IEGL to unlock and a second activation will cause it to lock.
By default the Diagnostic mode should be set to OFF. If the IEGL fails then the Diagnostic mode can be activated and information extracted
from it to help determine what has caused the fault. This information needs to be interpreted by ASSA ABLOY New Zealand Ltd.
Timed re-lock can only be enabled when Auto re-lock has been selected. It is recommended that Timed re-lock be ON in most installations. For
increased security the IEGL has the ability to automatically lock itself after a timed period in the event of a user failing to do so. If an unlock signal
is given to the lock, but the gate is not opened, the IEGL can automatically lock itself again after one minute. This ensures that a gate can not be
left unsecured if it has been unlocked but not opened.
1. Fail State - Switch 1
2. Auto re-lock - Switch 2
4. Diagnostic mode - Switch 4
3. Timed re-lock - Switch 3

1. Auto re-lock ON
• With Auto re-lock ON selected, the
momentary connection of CL to + acts as the
unlock signal. Closing the gate so the strike
aligns with the lock and the magnet activates
the internal switch, acts as the lock signal.
2. Auto re-lock OFF
• With Auto re-lock OFF selected, the
momentary connection of CL to + acts as
both the lock and unlock signals for the IEGL.

The IEGL features multiple locking / unlocking to allow for misaligned gates or unforeseen problems. If the bolt pin meets an obstruction as it is
trying to secure the gate, it stops and withdraws before attempting to lock again. It has a total of three attempts to secure the gate after which time
it will sound an alarm. The same function is present when the IEGL unlocks.

3. General
• If the batteries are fitted and the power is removed to the IEGL at any time during its operation, the lock will revert to its pre-selected
state of either unlocked or locked. The IEGL has been designed to operate with high quality disposable alkaline batteries and may not work
correctly with alternatives. Should the batteries become flat the lock will sound an alarm to indicate a battery change is required
• If the batteries are not replaced once they have become depleted, the IEGL will automatically revert to the Fail Maintained state; i.e. in the
event of a power failure the lock will stay in the position it was in before the power was removed
• The three monitors can be used to provide door and bolt position information regardless of the locks configuration
• Manual operation of the IEGL is available by removing the cover to allow access to the lock mechanism. The supplied key can be used to
open and remove the cover and once access is available a screwdriver can be inserted into the centre of the large gear and turned to move
the bolt pin in or out.
4. Alarms
• To offer instant feedback about the locks state, the IEGL has an on board beeper which sounds at various times. The table below details the
different alarms expected from the IEGL
• If the Failure to lock / unlock alarm has been sounded it is important that the cause of the obstruction is investigated immediately. As the
alarm sounds to indicate the bolt pin has not completed its correct action, it is possible that the gate is unsecured so the security of the
building is at risk. Any obstruction that is identified needs to be cleared so the lock is free to operate as normal
Clockwise turning of the large
gear will retract the bolt pin.
Anti-clockwise turning of the large
gear will extend the bolt pin.
Locked confirm 1 short beep
Unlocked confirm 2 short beeps
Failure to lock / unlock 5 long beeps
Battery replacement 5 short beeps sounded 5 seconds after a lock activation and repeated every 10
minutes until the batteries are replaced
Diagnostic Various beeps – used for service
