EE Delayed Egress Function

The EE – Delayed Egress option is designed for openings where occupants must always be able to exit, but unauthorized use of the door needs to be delayed and announced.

When the device is activated:

1. An audible alarm sounds.

2. The delayed-egress sequence begins.

3. The door remains secured for the required delay period.

4. After approximately 15 seconds, the device permits egress.

5. The alarm continues according to the system configuration until reset.

This gives facility personnel time to respond while maintaining required emergency-egress capability.
