The first automatically and remotely resettable break glass
The Jack Fuse Electronic Break Glass emergency door release represents a significant advancement in security technology, offering remote and/or automatic reset capabilities. For the first time, the need to attend site to perform a manual reset has been eliminated, along with associated costs.
The new reset modes combined with audible and visual feedback enhance facility security by reducing the time doors are unlocked unnecessarily and discouraging nuisance activations.
Reset Modes
Automatic reset is achieved by using the door lock power to energise the EBG. Reset occurs the next time the lock power is cycled. This may be when a card or exit button is used or an access schedule changes, for example at the end of business hours.
Remote reset uses a dedicated control voltage which can be shared between all EBG units in a facility. This voltage can be switched by a button, key switch, or system relay to allow operator override.
Local reset can be either via the concealed reset button, or when in automatic mode by cycling lock power (card read or exit button.) A local override switch can be used to keep the door unlocked during service or repair works. The local override option can be disabled.
Reset options can be combined to allow remote, automatic and local reset of the same EBG. High security facilities may choose to implement system logic to check the EBG status and automatically reset after a set period or at a specific time of day.
Retrofitting & Upgrades
Upgrading to the Electronic Break Glass is a simple task. The EBG features the same footprint and mounting hole pattern as most legacy manual reset break glass units.
No new cables are required when using the existing lock power to energise the EBG.
Tamper Switch
In a first for break glass units the EBG features a built in tamper output that monitors for both the case being opened and the base being removed from the wall.
