Symptom:
Key cylinder is loose or sticks out.

Unit in constant alarm mode.
Turning key CCW does not reset alarm.
Unit goes into alarm when service requires
opening the front cover.
Not enough bypass time when set at max.

This is a low battery indication.
Probable cause / Fix
Tapered collar not installed.
Hex nut is not secure.
103970 bracket not installed or installed backwards (Flange goes towards the cover).
Incorrect cam on mortise cylinder. Should be Yale type cam.
Self adjusting switch cam mounting screws overly tight.
Magnetic switch too far from magnet or connected to the wrong terminals on the
PWA.
Wrong type of switch contact. Must be closed contact with the door closed and
magnet in correct position.
Pull tamper switch plunger fully out, turn key CCW. Make sure door is closed during
initial opening of the cover.
Change switch positions as needed. See label on inside front cover for options.
Turn key CCW and release. Then press the 'Activate Timed By-Pass' button.
Make sure door is fully closed.
Make sure wiring to the magnetic switch is not damaged or cut.
Check AC power to the device, and that building power is present at the outlet.
Make sure optional plug-in transformer is plugged in and the holding screw installed.
Check for damaged wiring between the transformer and the EAX-3500.
The battery should be replaced every three years
