LCN 8310-805C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the LCN 8310-805C concealed door position switch actually do in an automatic door system?
The 8310-805C tells the operator whether the door is closed. When the door is in the closed position, it disables the approach side sensor so the system does not false-activate on someone standing near a closed opening. It is a sensing accessory, not a switch you press and not the operator itself, and it mounts concealed so nothing shows on the door or frame.
2) Will the LCN 8310-805C work with my automatic operator, or is it only for one model?
It covers all three LCN operator drive types: electrohydraulic, pneumatic, and Benchmark. The deciding factor is not which operator you have, it is whether the door mounted safety sensor (8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2) and the 8310-845 relay module are in the system with it. That combination is the application LCN specifies for the part.
3) My automatic door keeps triggering when nobody is going through it. Is a door position switch the fix?
That is the exact nuisance the 8310-805C addresses on an 8310 system. With the door closed, the approach side sensor stays live and reacts to people walking past or standing near the opening. The position switch cuts that sensor out while the door is closed, so the operator only responds when it should. It applies where a door mounted safety sensor and the 8310-845 relay module are part of the system.
4) Is a door position switch the same thing as a request to exit switch or a latchbolt monitor?
No, and mixing them up is a common ordering mistake. The 8310-805C reports door position to an automatic operator so the approach sensor can be disabled when the door is closed. A request to exit kit signals an access control panel that someone is legitimately leaving, like the Command Access REX-KIT-ML for ML1-series mortise locks or the CRSREXKIT-ED for Cal Royal 22/98 and Sargent 80 series devices. A latchbolt monitor reports whether the latch is thrown, which is what the Command Access SCHLBMKIT-ML does on Schlage L9000 mortise locks. Different signal, different system.
5) What is the difference between an LCN 8310-805C door position switch and a request-to-exit switch kit like the Command Access REX-KIT-ML?
They monitor different things. The LCN 8310-805C is a concealed door position switch used when an 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor and an 8310-845 relay module are installed with an electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark automatic operator; it reports whether the door leaf is closed so the approach side sensors are disabled at rest. The Command Access REX-KIT-ML is a request to exit kit for ML1-Series mortise locks, field installable, which signals that someone has operated the lever to leave. A door position switch tells the system where the door is; a REX kit tells the system that an exit was requested. An automatic operator installation that needs door position feedback is not served by a REX kit.
6) Is the LCN 8310-805C rated for commercial use, and does it suit an ADA accessible entrance?
Commercial is what it is built for, and LCN lists it as ADA compliant for accessible automatic door systems. That matters on healthcare, school, government, and multi-tenant entrances where the automatic operator is the accessible route and the sensing has to behave predictably.
7) Is the 8310-805C a surface mounted switch or does it get let into the door?
Concealed. The 805C is a low profile design that hides in the opening rather than sitting on the face of the door or frame, so there is no visible hardware once it is in. If you want an accessory that mounts openly on the surface, this is the wrong style of part, and something like the Cal-Royal 8641-SM surface mount single gang box is the surface approach for a device that needs to show.
8) I need to detect someone approaching the door rather than the door position - what do I use instead of the LCN 8310-805C?
For presence at the door rather than door position, look at a sensor bar such as the DynaLock 6451-36, a 6451 Series exit sensor bar sized for a 36 inch door. It senses a person at the leaf and signals the system to release or activate. The LCN 8310-805C is a concealed door position switch that reports whether the leaf is closed, working with the 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor and the 8310-845 relay module on an automatic operator. Many automatic openings carry both: a sensing device for the person and a door position switch for the leaf.
9) Does the LCN 8310-805C do the relay switching, or do I still need a relay board like the Locknetics RDB4?
The 8310-805C is the sensing element, not the switching hardware. It is a concealed door position switch used in conjunction with an 8310-845 relay module and an 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor on an electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark automatic operator. Where a job needs multiple relay outputs distributed to other devices, the Locknetics RDB4 is a 4 output relay distribution board supplied as a board only. The two sit at different points in the circuit: the 8310-805C originates the door position signal, a relay board acts on signals.
10) The door position switch is for a glass entrance - is the LCN 8310-805C the right part or should I look at Securitron glass door accessories?
It depends on whether the mounting is the problem. The LCN 8310-805C is a concealed door position switch for commercial automatic operator systems, with a low profile design that keeps the hardware out of sight while monitoring door position. Securitron Glass Door Accessories are a Grade 2 Glass Door Series line intended for openings where hardware cannot be through-bolted into a conventional door. If the concealed prep the 8310-805C needs is available in the leaf or frame, it stays the correct part for automatic operator door position; where the glass leaf will not take that prep, the mounting accessories line is the direction to go.
11) For an ADA accessible automatic entrance, does the LCN 8310-805C carry the accessibility compliance or does that come from an accessory kit?
The LCN 8310-805C is ADA compliant and is a commercial installation accessory for the 8310 Series, used with the 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor and 8310-845 relay module on electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark automatic operators. Mounting accessory lines such as the Securitron SAM Surface Mount Kit Accessories or the Securitron SWB SAM Wood Bracket are brackets and mounting hardware for their own device families, not door position sensing for an automatic operator. For an accessible automatic entrance needing door position feedback, the 8310-805C is the sensing part specified.
12) How many parts do I get when I order the LCN 8310-805C?
One model is offered, the 8310-805C, with no finish, hand, or size choices to specify. There is nothing to select on the order beyond quantity, so ordering one per automatic operator opening is the pattern. The sensors and relay module it works with, the 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 and the 8310-845, are separate parts.
13) Where can I find LCN installation templates for the 8310 accessories before I cut the door?
LCN publishes a templates and instructions index covering its closers and automatic operators, plus an automatic operator catalog section that documents the 8310 sensor and accessory range. Pull the template for the operator you are installing before you prep the opening, because the 805C is concealed and the prep has to be right the first time.
14) Does the LCN 8310-805C need its own power supply like the Adams Rite 4605 transformer?
The 8310-805C is an electronic door position switch that operates as part of an automatic operator system, installed with the 8310-804-1 or 8310-804-2 door mounted safety sensor and the 8310-845 relay module on an electrohydraulic, pneumatic or Benchmark operator, so it is powered through that system rather than being a standalone powered device. Where a separate low voltage source is needed for other devices on the opening, the Adams Rite 4605 is a regular transformer taking 115 VAC to 12/24 VAC with a 40 volt-amp output. Size any such supply against the devices actually drawing from it, not against the position switch.
15) Is a delayed egress sounder like the RCI 914 an alternative to the LCN 8310-805C for knowing when a door is open?
No. The RCI 914 Series is a delayed egress sounder with field selectable volume output up to 102dB, an audible annunciator for egress control. The LCN 8310-805C is a concealed door position switch that feeds door position into an automatic operator system so approach side sensors are disabled when the door is closed. One makes noise for people in the space; the other passes a contact state to the operator control. If the requirement is that the operator knows the leaf position, the 8310-805C is the part; if the requirement is an audible alert on egress, that is the sounder's job.
