LCN 8310-805 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What else do I need to order with the LCN 8310-805 to make it work?
On its own the 8310-805 does nothing. LCN specifies it for use when an 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 Door Mounted Safety Sensor and an 8310-845 Relay Module are installed together with an electrohydraulic, pneumatic, or Benchmark automatic operator. If you don't have the safety sensor and the relay module on the opening, the position switch has nothing to signal.
2) Will the LCN 8310-805 work with my automatic door operator?
It's specified for electrohydraulic, pneumatic, and Benchmark automatic operators. Those are the three operator families LCN ties this switch to, and it is meant to be part of an 8310 Series sensor package on that operator rather than a generic dry contact monitor added to any brand of operator.
3) Is the 8310-805 a request-to-exit or latch monitor switch for an access control system?
No, and that distinction matters. The 8310-805 is a door position switch for automatic operator safety logic, not an access control monitoring switch. If you need REX or latchbolt monitoring on a lock or exit device, that's a different kit entirely, for example the Command Access REX-KIT-ML for ML1-Series mortise locks, the CRSREXKIT-ED for Cal Royal 22/98 and Sargent 80 Series devices, or the SCHLBMKIT-ML latchbolt monitor for Schlage L9000 mortise locks.
4) Is there a Securitron surface mount accessory that can replace an LCN 8310-805 door position switch?
No. The Securitron SAM Surface Mount Kit Accessories are mounting kit parts in the SAM Accessories line, and the Securitron SWB is a SAM wood bracket, so both are brackets and mounting hardware rather than a position-sensing device. The LCN 8310-805 is a surface mount door position switch that senses whether the door is closed and disables the approach side sensor when it is, which is a sensing function no bracket performs. If a job calls for a DPS to work with a door mounted safety sensor and relay module on an automatic operator, a mount kit is not an alternate.
5) Can a latchbolt monitor or request to exit switch kit be used instead of a door position switch on an automatic operator?
They monitor different things. The Command Access SCHLBMKIT-ML is a field installable latchbolt monitor switch kit for Schlage L9000 mortise locks with an SPDT configuration, and the Command Access REX-KIT-ML is a request to exit kit for ML1-Series mortise locks, so both report lock or lever activity from inside the lock case. The LCN 8310-805 reports door position from a surface mounted switch on the door and is applied where a door mounted safety sensor and a relay module run with an electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark automatic operator. A latch or REX signal will not tell the operator's sensor logic that the door leaf is closed.
6) Do I have to mortise or drill the door to install the 8310-805 position switch?
No. It's a surface mount door position switch, so it mounts to the face of the door and frame without cutting a prep into the door. That's what makes it usable on existing openings where an operator and sensor package is being added after the fact.
7) Is the LCN 8310-805 door position switch ADA compliant for an accessible entrance?
Yes, LCN lists the 8310-805 as ADA compliant. It contributes to that by keeping the approach side sensor logic correct on a low energy accessible entrance, which is what facility and institutional buyers are usually documenting when they ask.
8) I'm standardizing automatic entrances across a facility. Does every operator opening need an 8310-805?
Only the openings that carry the 8310 Series door mounted safety sensor package. LCN calls for the 8310-805 where an 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 safety sensor and an 8310-845 relay module are installed on the operator. An operator without that sensor and relay combination has nothing for the position switch to gate, so the count you need is the count of sensor-equipped operators, not the count of doors.
9) What should be used on an exit device door where the signal needs to come from the panic hardware rather than the door leaf?
Use a REX kit matched to the device. The Command Access CRSREXKIT-ED is a field installable request to exit kit for Cal Royal 22/98 and Sargent 80 Series devices with an SPDT switch, and the CYREXKIT-ED is a field REX kit for Corbin 5000 and Yale 7000 exit devices rated 5A. Those pick up the pushbar. The LCN 8310-805 is a surface mount door position switch, so it reports the position of the door itself and is the part to use when an automatic operator's approach side sensor must be disabled with the door closed.
10) Is a Dortronics 6510/COV or an RCI 914 sounder an alternative to an LCN 8310-805?
They serve different ends of the opening. The Dortronics 6510/COV is an anti-tamper alarm cover for 6500 Series pull stations and 5000 Series push buttons, and the RCI 914 Series is a delayed egress sounder with field-selectable volume up to 102dB, so one protects a release device and the other annunciates egress. The LCN 8310-805 is a commercial, electronic surface mount door position switch used in the safety chain of an automatic operator. A cover or a sounder does not supply the closed-door input the operator's sensor scheme needs.
11) Which part carries the door position signal across the hinge edge, and which one senses it?
They are two separate purchases. The RCI 9500/9501 Series mortise pin transfer moves power or signal from frame to door with a tamper-resistant design at 1.5A 24VAC, so it is the transfer path. The LCN 8310-805 is the sensing element, a surface mount door position switch applied with a door mounted safety sensor and relay module on an electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark automatic operator. An opening that needs concealed wire transfer as well as position sensing takes both parts, not one in place of the other.
12) On an all-glass entrance where nothing can be fastened to the leaf, what is used instead of a surface mount door position switch?
The Securitron Glass Door Accessories in the Glass Door Series are the Grade 2 hardware made for glass leaves where surface fastening to the door is not available. The LCN 8310-805 mounts on the surface of the door, which suits hollow metal and wood openings running an automatic operator with a door mounted safety sensor and relay module. On a frameless glass opening, plan the mounting around glass door hardware rather than assuming a surface mount switch will land.
13) Will a DynaLock exit sensor bar do the job of a door position switch on an automatic operator?
No. The DynaLock 6451-36 is an exit sensor bar in the 6451 Series sized for a 36 inch door, so it senses a person pushing to exit at the bar. The LCN 8310-805 senses the door position and disables the approach side sensor when the door is closed as part of an ADA compliant automatic operator installation. A request-to-exit bar and a position switch produce different inputs, and the operator's safety sequence is built around the position input.
14) Can I use the LCN 8310-805 on a residential garage or house door?
It's a commercial product, built for automatic operator installations in commercial buildings, healthcare, schools, retail, and multi-tenant properties. There's no residential application for it outside of a building that already has a commercial low energy operator with the 8310 Series sensor package.
15) Is the 8310-805 a powered device or just a mechanical contact?
LCN classes the 8310-805 as an electronic device. It wires into the 8310 Series sensor and relay circuit on the operator rather than standing alone, so plan the install around the operator's low voltage runs to the 8310-845 relay module.
16) Are there different models or sizes of the LCN 8310-805 door position switch to choose from?
No. The 8310-805 is sold as a single model with no finish, size, or handing options to specify. Order it by that model number and the only other decisions are which safety sensor (8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2) and relay module go with it.
17) Is a relay distribution board or a transformer part of the same package as an LCN door position switch?
They fill out the rest of the system rather than substituting for it. The Locknetics RDB4 is a 4 output relay distribution board supplied as a board only in the LP Series, and the Adams Rite 4605 is a regular transformer stepping 115 VAC to 12/24 VAC with a 40 volt-amp output. The LCN 8310-805 is the door position switch itself and is applied where an 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor and an 8310-845 relay module run with the automatic operator. Power and relay logic for the panel are specified separately from the switch.
18) Does an LCN 8310-805 need a surface mount box like the Cal-Royal 8641-SM?
They are different mounting problems. The Cal-Royal 8641-SM is a single gang surface mount box in the 8600 Series, intended to give a wall device a surface enclosure. The LCN 8310-805 is a surface mount door position switch that installs without door modification, so its mounting is on the door and frame rather than in a gang box. Specify a gang box for a wall actuator, not for the position switch.
