Description
The Urmet RTE-EES Emergency Exit System meets the above Secure by design requirement.
The devices are suitable for use with fail safe releases and maglocks. Not fail secure (fail
locked) releases.
The PRESS TO EXIT button uses a normally open contact to trigger the access control or
door entry system timing circuit, and also a normally closed contact which is connected in
series with the cable supplying the release, meaning that if the access control or door entry
system is offline, the power to the release will be mechanically cut and the door can always
be opened.
The emergency PRESS TO ESCAPE button triggers the timing circuit within the device which
in turn breaks the power to the release. After a pre-set period of time (1, 6, 12 or 24
minutes) the door will automatically re-lock.
The PRESS TO ESCAPE button also mechanically breaks the power to the release.
If the supply voltage to the emergency exit device is lost, all internal normally closed circuits
will fail open, meaning the device is truly fail safe.

Technical features
The Emergency Exit System is designed to meet BS7273-4 Type A activation requirements, but using
a timed automatic reset and not a mechanical reset.

The type and size of cable to use depends on the distance from the release or maglock to
the power supply and also the specification of the release (minimum voltage and maximum
current).
As a general guide, a twin 1.0mm cable will power most fail safe releases and maglocks rated
up to 1.5A up to 25 meters from the lock power supply, or most releases and maglocks rated
at 0.5A up to 100 meters from the power supply.
We recommend the use of a 4-core ‘YY Control cable’. This allows for two additional cores
for any door monitoring contact.

The device is provided with an input for a Fireman’s
override switch and an input for any normally closed
auxiliary devices or systems.
If these are not being used, then the connections
must be linked out.

Two auxiliary outputs are provided.
They both signal the operation of the ‘Emergency
only’ button and are momentary.
These outputs can be used for example to provide
an input to an access control system for event
monitoring, or could be used to trigger a sounder.
E.g. access control
system input
E.g. trigger for
sounder
The outputs can be normally open or normally closed depending on the position of the associated jumper –
The default setting is for the jumper to be in the normally open position.
Auxiliary output is normally open
Auxiliary output is normally closed

The timing ranges are approximately
1, 6, 12 and 24 minutes.
The default setting is 1 minute.
A built in buzzer can be used to indicate that the release is not powered
i.e. the door is open. The buzzer will sound all the time that power is not
applied to the release.
This function is disabled by default. To enable the function, fit the
jumper across the pins –

Note that the first time the 12V DC supply is applied to the device, the timer circuit may
trigger causing the buzzer to activate. In this case the buzzer will stop after the default
time of one minute.

Commissioning the exit switches
1. Switch off the dedicated lock power supply – the door must remain unlocked while
the power supply is off. Switch the power supply back on.
2. Push the PRESS TO EXIT button – the door must remain open for the length of time
set by the access control or door entry system.
3. Disconnect the Panel lock trig connections. Push and hold the PRESS TO EXIT button
– the door must remain open as long as the PRESS TO EXIT button is held in. Re-
connect the Panel lock trig connections.
4. With DIP switch 1 ON and DIPs 2, 3 and 4 OFF, push the PRESS TO ESCAPE button.
The door must remain unlocked for 1 minute. Repeat the test for the remaining
timing ranges (6, 12 and 24 minutes).
5. Disconnect the Circuit supply connections. Push and hold the PRESS TO ESCAPE
button – the door must remain open as long as the PRESS TO ESCAPE button is held
in. Re-connect the Circuit supply connections.
In certain fault conditions t
he
timing circuit for the
PRESS TO ESCAPE button
will not
function. In this case the PRESS TO ESCAPE button will mechanically break the power to
the release but only while the button is being pressed, meaning that as soon as the
button is released the door will lock again.
For this reason, the device must be located in a position where it is possible to reach the
door handle and operate the buttons at the same time.
If this is not possible then the installation is not safe.
