Detex EAX4200SK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Detex EAX-4200SK alarm kit come with, and do I need to buy anything else to install it?
The EAX-4200SK ships as a complete kit: the master alarm unit, back box, surface magnetic switch contacts, a 24VAC transformer, and a rim cylinder. That covers the door contact and the key control, so the usual add-on items are already in the carton. What you supply is the line-voltage feed to the transformer and the wiring run between the unit and the contacts. Mounting is into a 3 gang box.
2) Can one Detex EAX-4200SK cover door propped open, forced entry, and unauthorized exit, or do I need separate devices?
One master unit handles all three. The EAX-4200SK monitors door prop / door held, intrusion / door forced, and exit alarm conditions, so a single access control point does not need stacked hardware for each condition. Alarm timing and alarm delay are field selectable, so you set how long a door can stand open before it annunciates.
3) How do you silence and reset a Detex EAX-4200SK after it alarms?
Two ways. There is a reset/bypass keyswitch on the unit, keyed by the included rim cylinder, for staff to silence or bypass on the spot. For normal traffic you often do not touch it at all: the alarm resets and rearms automatically when the door closes. A remote input is also provided if you want to bypass from a desk or panel rather than at the door.
4) Will the Detex EAX-4200SK report to my building security system or is it just a local horn?
Both. There is a local audible warning at the door plus an alarm status relay for remote annunciation, so the alarm state can be carried back to a security panel or head-end for monitoring. A visual status indicator on the unit tells staff at the opening what state it is in.
5) Is the Detex EAX-4200SK a door alarm only, or does it lock the door too?
Monitoring and annunciation only. The EAX-4200SK watches the opening through surface magnetic contacts and alarms on prop, forced entry, or exit; it does not latch or secure the door itself. Pair it with the exit device or lock already on the opening. If you need the alarm built into the exit hardware instead of mounted beside it, an alarmed exit device is the different animal to look at.
6) My delivery door gets held open by staff all day. Will the Detex EAX-4200SK stop the nuisance alarms?
That is the case it is built for. The audible warning sounds first as a pre-alarm to prompt whoever is holding the door, which cuts down on false door held alarms, and the alarm timing and delay are field selectable so you can allow a realistic window for a cart or a pallet to clear. Close the door and it rearms itself.
7) Does the Detex EAX-4200SK come keyed, or do I have to order a cylinder separately?
The rim cylinder is in the kit, so the reset/bypass keyswitch is ready to go out of the box. If you are standardizing a building on one key system you would substitute your own rim cylinder for the supplied one at install.
8) Is the Detex EAX-4200SK rated for commercial use, and where does it typically get installed?
Commercial grade. It is used on emergency exits, retail back-of-house doors for loss prevention, healthcare and school egress doors, industrial plant doors, and government buildings, anywhere a door needs to stay closed and someone needs to know when it does not. The 3 gang back box mount and 24VAC feed make it a hardwired, permanent install rather than a temporary battery alarm.
