3Product description
3.1 Functional description
The online module in Clex public system is the interface (2.4 GHz) between the
Uhlmann & Zacher products and a third-party system. From the third-party system
you can, for example, read transponder data or control Clex locking units via the
online module. To this purpose up to 8 locking units are coupled with the online

4Installation
4.1 General installation information
The valid national regulations for electronic installations
(e.g. VDE regulations) must be observed.
The connecting cables must be available and laid.
Only operate the device at the correct operating voltage.
If possible, disconnect the load and operating circuits.
In the case of installation on metal surfaces or in direct proximity to metals,
the range as well as the communication between product and connected
locking units may be influenced negatively.
Avoid direct exposure to strong electromagnetic fields
Do not paint over, paste over or cover the online module.
4.2 Installation
Specify the mounting position. Ensure that the surface is smooth, dry and firm
enough. Do not place the units close to each other to avoid radio interfer-
ences.
Mark the fastening points through the bottom of the housing
(No. 9 in layout diagram).
If required, drill mounting holes into the mounting surface.
Insert the connection cables through the opening on the bottom into the
housing and cut and strip to a suitable length.
Hand-tighten the lower part of the device at the intended location using suit-
able flat-head screws. Installation material is not included in the scope of de-
livery. In case of cable feeding from the side, use additional fitting rubber or
plastic spacers. Ensure that the cable is not pinched.
Wire cables according to the respective pin assignment specified in the next
chapter. The two 8-pin connection blocks can be removed for easier installa-
tion.
Perform commissioning (see the "Commissioning" chapter).
Put on the housing cover and screw it tight.

5Commissioning and operation
5.1 Connecting locking units
To connect a locking unit with the online module, you have to perform the follow-
ing steps:
Bring the locking unit which you want to connect into the service mode by
holding the service key in front of the locking unit.
Use a screwdriver or a similar tool to turn the rotary switch (6) so that the
arrowhead points to Position 8. Then briefly press the button (7) to switch to
the pairing mode and teach in the locking unit within reach.
6) Rotary switch
7) Button
8) LEDs
If successful, the green LED lights up several times and the lock leaves the service
mode directly. If not successful, the red LED lights up several times and the lock
remains in the service mode.
The yellow LED flashes additionally to confirm the button input. The blue LED
flashes to signal the BLE activity.
Turn the rotary switch back to the home position.

Briefly press the button (7) to delete all the saved locking
units and parameters.

If you keep the button (7) pressed longer than 4 s and
then release it, the online module switches to the service
mode (as at Position 4).

CX8936 COMMISSIONING AND OPERATION

5.2 Configuring the online module
The configuration of the online mode normally takes place through the connected
third-party system and the corresponding function of the respective protocols.
Individual parameters of the online module can also be set directly via a BLE
connection or bus commands in the service mode.
Use a screwdriver or a similar tool to turn the rotary switch (6) so that the
arrowhead points to Position 4 (service mode). Then briefly press the button
(7) to switch to the service mode.
The active service mode is signaled by the green LED. In addition, the blue
LED flashes to signal BLE activity. In the case of an existing BLE connection
the blue LED lights up continuously.
Carry out the settings (e.g. LAN/WLAN communication) by means of the
associated software tool (details are available in the respective protocol de-
scription).
You can end the service mode at any time by again pressing the button (7) or
by changing the position of the rotary switch (6).
The program "Clex UZReader Test Tool (ClexUzRdrTT)" as of Version 2.8.6.2 can
be used to set up and test the connection via the Clex public UZ Reader protocol.
The parameters for the Wiegand connection can also be set with this tool. Con-
tact your Integration partner to purchase the software.
The "ClexSer OSDP Test Tool (ClexOsdpTT)" program can be used to set up and
test the OSDP connection. Contact your Integration partner to purchase the soft-
ware.
5.3 Operation
If an authorized transponder is held in front of the connected locking unit, a BLE
connection is established with the online module and, depending on the version,
the authorization is requested via the corresponding protocol of the third-party
system.
If no BLE connection can be established, for example in case of a power failure
or a wireless attack, the electronics of the locking unit drops back into offline
mode. In this mode the door can be opened with any transponder with offline
authorization.
In this case the electronics of the locking unit warns the user, however, before
opening with a distinctive visual and acoustic signaling.
When the locking unit is woken up, for example by a knob cylinder being turned
or a door handle or knob module being actuated, a wireless connection is also
established.

head points to Position 9. Briefly press the button (7) to delete all the saved lock-
ing units and parameters.

6Maintenance and cleaning
6.1 Maintenance
Since the device is not protected specially against dust, the product should be
checked regularly for dust deposits. The frequency depends on the dust level at
the operation site.
6.2 Cleaning
Clean the housing with a soft, lint-free and only slightly moistened cloth. When
cleaning do not use corrosive liquids or liquids that decompose plastic such as
benzine, turpentine, etc. Sharp detergents may damage or discolor the surface.
Do not use any detergents which act on a mechanical basis (e.g. scouring milk,
scouring sponge).
Free the electronics from dust with a suitable brush or by careful use of com-
pressed air at a sufficient distance.
