Chexit (CX)

Wiring and Configuration

Installation Instructions

General Information
The Von Duprin Chexit device is designed for controlled egress applications. It meets both life safety and security needs, as well as
the requirements of NFPA101 for “Special Locking Arrangement” and IBC “Special Egress-Control Devices”. All control inputs, auxiliary
locking, local alarm and remote signaling outputs are self-contained in the Chexit assembly. Numerous field configurable options allow
the device to be customized for the specific code or application requirements. The standard Chexit device sounds an alarm and keeps
the door secured for 15 seconds following an exit attempt with immediate release upon fire.

Basic Features

Door Position Switch

Remote Alarm

Key Switch
Internal Alarm

Status Indicator

Inhibit Device
(Card Reader)

Inputs & Outputs
Fire Alarm Input
This input releases the door immediately upon a fire alarm,
allowing immediate egress. The Internal Alarm can be silenced
during a fire input via an onboard switch setting.
Inhibit Input (Access Control)
This optional input is provided to allow authorized egress or entry
when the device is Armed using an external card reader, Key
Switch, etc. It also allows remote reset of the Chexit in an alarmed
condition. The ability to reset alarms with the inhibit input can be
disabled via an onboard switch setting.
Door Position Switch Input
An optional Door Position Switch (DPS) can provide door position
status to Chexit for additional security, ensuring that the door is
closed, and can cause alarm when the door is left or forced open.
Gang Bus
The Gang bus allows a Chexit device to signal other Chexit
devices when it enters the Release Delay, allowing multiple doors
to release at the same time in an emergency. Up to 8 devices may
be connected to the Gang bus.
Alarm Relay Contacts
The Alarm Relay contacts are provided as a means to control
a Remote Alarm, such as a horn or lamp, or signal an external
monitor. The contacts can be configured with a jumper as Normally
Open or Normally Closed, and become active upon entering an
alarmed condition.
Secure Relay Contacts
The Secure Relay contacts are provided as a means to signal an
external monitor. The contacts can be configured as Normally Open
or Normally Closed with a jumper, and become active when the
DPS indicates the door is closed and the Push Pad is locked.
Delays
Release Delay
When the Push Pad is pushed and the Nuisance Delay expires, the
Chexit enters the Release Delay with alarm. During the Release
Delay, the Internal Alarm sounds, the Alarm Relay activates, and
the Chexit keeps the Push Pad locked for 15 seconds (less any
time already elapsed during the Nuisance Delay). Once started,
the Release Delay sequence will not stop and the Chexit will
unlock.
2

Nuisance Delay
When a Chexit is located in a public area, it can be desirable to
limit false releases when the Push Pad is accidentally pushed. The
Nuisance Delay is the brief time a Push Pad can be accidentally
pushed before the Release Delay sequence starts. If the Nuisance
Time is set to 0 seconds, the Chexit will enter Release Delay
as soon as the Push Pad is pushed (when armed). Setting the
Nuisance Time to 1, 2, or 3 seconds allows the Push Pad to be
pressed for 1 to 3 seconds before the Chexit goes into Release
Delay. If the Nuisance Audio and Nuisance Delay are both on, the
Internal Alarm will pulse during the Nuisance Delay. The Alarm
Relay does not activate during the Nuisance Delay. If the Push
Pad is released before the Nuisance Delay expires, the Chexit will
remain armed.
Rearm Delay
The Rearm Delay is the amount of time after the Key Switch or
Inhibit Input is deactivated to when the device rearms. It is designed
to give someone time to pass through the door before rearming
occurs. The Rearm Time can be changed via the onboard switch
settings from 0 to 28 seconds in 2 second increments.
If the Rearm Time is set to 30 seconds and a DPS is used, if the
door is opened and the Rearm Time expires, there will be no
alarm. The Chexit will rearm after the door is closed. If the door
never opens, the Chexit will rearm after 30 seconds.
If not using a DPS, the Chexit will always rearm in 30 seconds.
DPS Delay
If the DPS detects that the door closed during the Rearm Delay,
the Chexit ends the Rearm Delay and allows 2 seconds for the
latch to clear the strike before rearming.
Interface
Key Switch
The Key Switch provides the means to Arm or Disarm/Reset the
Chexit. Turning the Key Switch clockwise initiates the Rearm
Delay, and turning the Key Switch counter-clockwise Disarms/
Resets the Chexit. The Key Switch allows the key to be removed
in either the Arm or the Disarm/Reset position.
Status Indicator
The red Status Indicator displays the status of the Chexit. The
Status Indicator flashes slow if the Chexit is armed, flashes fast in
an alarmed mode, is off when inhibited and on solid during Rearm
Delay.
Internal Alarm
The Internal Alarm sounds the status of the Chexit. The Internal
Alarm sounds continuously during and after a fire alarm or a
Release Delay, pulses fast during the Nuisance Delay or a tamper
and pulses slow during Disarmed Powerup mode.
Settings
Armed Powerup
When set to OFF, a power disruption and power return will put the
Chexit in a disarmed, unlocked alarm mode.
Trim Fail Safe / Fail Secure (FS/FSE)
The trim input power can be set to FS (Fail Safe; locked when
energized, unlocked when deenergized or during power failure)
or FSE (Fail Secure; unlocked when energized, locked when
deenergized or during power failure).
The trim must be bought or modified to physically function as FS or
FSE. This onboard setting only selects the trim input power.

Basic Functional Test

This test is to be performed with Chexit switches in default settings and with door closed. Follow the instructions below and verify that
the Chexit performs as described.
Note: If at any time the Internal Alarm sounds and you wish to silence it, turn the Key Switch counter-clockwise.
Test Powerup
1. Turn the Key Switch clockwise. Then turn the power supply ON which causes the Chexit to enter Armed Mode (Status Indicator is
flashing slow).
2. Turn the Key Switch counter-clockwise to put the Chexit into Disarmed/Reset Mode (Status Indicator is OFF).
3. Turn the Key Switch clockwise which causes the Chexit to enter Rearm Delay Mode (Status Indicator is ON for 10 seconds - this time
is adjustable).
4. After Rearm Delay Mode expires, the Chexit will enter Armed Mode (Status Indicator is flashing slow).
Test Delayed Egress
5. Confirm that the Chexit is in Armed Mode per step 4.
6. Push the Push Pad and verify that it is locked (it will not push down).
Chexit will immediately begin sounding the Internal Alarm and enter Release Delay Mode for 15 seconds (Status Indicator is
flashing fast and Internal Alarm is ON).
7. After the Release Delay Mode expires, the Chexit will enter Released Mode (Status Indicator is flashing fast and the Internal Alarm is
ON).
The Push Pad will be unlocked (you can now push it down and open the door).

Troubleshooting

Normal Chexit operation:
-After turning the Key Switch clockwise to Arm, the Chexit will wait the selected Rearm Time (red Status Indicator is ON).
-At the end of this delay, the Chexit will lock the Push Pad (red Status Indicator is flashing slow) indicating the Chexit is Armed.
-To trigger delayed egress, push the Push Pad in. The Chexit will sound an Internal Alarm (red Status Indicator is flashing fast).
-At the end of the Release Delay, the Push Pad will unlock allowing exit. The Internal Alarm will continue until the Chexit is reset with
the Key Switch or Inhibit Input (if INH Reset onboard switch setting is ON).
Most wiring issues can be diagnosed by observing the Module’s onboard LED indicators (see section 12, Onboard Indicators).
An Armed Chexit’s LED’s should appear as:
Status LED - flashing slow
PWR, SEC and BLK - ON (PWR LED is on when power is applied to the Module and is independent of any switch positions)
All other LED’s - OFF
Status Indicator flashing fast or Internal Alarm pulsing fast is 4 times per second. Status Indicator flashing slow or Internal Alarm
pulsing slow is 1 time per second. Status Indicator ON or Internal Alarm ON means on continuously.
With 24VDC applied to the Chexit, turn the Key Switch clockwise to Arm and note the possible symptoms below.
