LCN 8310-816S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the LCN 8310-816S touchless actuator work with any automatic door operator, or only LCN operators?
The 8310-816S is a wave-to-open switch intended for use with power operators, and it signals through a Form C relay. A Form C (changeover) contact gives you both a normally open and a normally closed set off a common, so it drops into the dry-contact activation input on essentially any low energy operator, not just LCN's. What it does not do is open a door on its own. It needs an operator and a power source; the actuator is the trigger only.
2) What voltage do I need to run to an LCN 8310 wave-to-open actuator?
The 8310-816S accepts 12VAC/DC, 24VDC, or 24VAC, so you can pick it up from whatever the operator already supplies rather than pulling a separate supply. On most low energy operator installs that is the 24V accessory output at the header, which means one cable to the actuator location carries both power and the activation contact.
3) Our patients keep triggering the door just walking past the wall switch. Does the LCN 8310-816S fix that?
That is exactly what the close proximity version is for. The 8310-816S reads a hand at 0 to 4 inches, so someone walking down the corridor past the plate does not set it off; the user has to deliberately put a hand at the plate. A wider-range touchless actuator will pick up passing traffic in a tight corridor. If your problem is nuisance activation in a busy hallway, the close proximity range is the one to specify.
4) Does a touchless wave plate meet ADA, or do I still need a push plate someone can press?
The LCN 8310-816S is ADA compliant on its own and carries "Wave To Open" text with a wave symbol, so it satisfies the accessible actuation requirement without a companion push plate. Practically, touchless is easier for a wheelchair user than a hard push button, since no force and no contact is required. It is a commercial-rated device, which is what a facility under an accessibility scope needs.
5) Can the LCN 8310-816S actuator be mounted on a door jamb or bollard, or is it wall only?
Wall mount is the stated method for the 8310-816S, and it is a flush mount, so it wants a finished wall surface with a box behind it. A 6 inch square flush plate will not sit on a narrow jamb face or a round bollard post. For a jamb location you want a narrow rectangular actuator instead, such as the Falcon 8310-819F, which is a 1-1/2 x 4-3/4 inch rectangle built for jamb and flush mount.
6) I have 4-1/2 inch square actuators on the rest of my doors. Will an LCN 8310-816S match them?
Not on plate size. The 8310-816S is a 6 inch square, so it will read larger than a 4-1/2 inch plate beside it and will not drop into a 4-1/2 inch cutout. If matching the existing openings is the priority, the Camden CM-45 Series is a 4-1/2 inch square switch. If you are standardizing a building on touchless, the cleaner path is changing the whole run to the 6 inch square rather than mixing sizes down a corridor.
7) What is the difference between the LCN 8310-816S actuator and a Camden CM-45 push plate switch?
The LCN 8310-816S is a touchless actuator with a wave symbol and Wave To Open display text, so the user activates the power operator by holding a hand in front of the plate rather than pressing it. The Camden CM-45 Series is a 4-1/2 inch square push plate switch, wired or with a kinetic wireless transmitter, which is actuated by physical contact with the plate. Both drive a door control circuit, but if the requirement is hands-free entry in a healthcare or clean-room corridor, the 8310-816S is the one that answers it; if the specification calls for a mechanical push plate, and a wireless transmitter option is useful because running wire to the wall is difficult, the CM-45 covers that. The 8310-816S is also an ADA compliant commercial actuator that runs on 12VAC/DC, 24VDC, or 24VAC with a Form C relay output.
8) Can I order the Falcon 8310-819F instead of the LCN 8310-816S touchless actuator?
No, those are two different items even though both carry 8310 Series designations. The LCN 8310-816S is the touchless actuator itself, the stainless steel wall-mount plate that senses the wave gesture and switches a Form C relay to signal the power operator. The Falcon 8310-819F is a rugged plastic actuator mounting box, 1-1/2 inch by 4-3/4 inch rectangle, for jamb and flush mount, which houses an actuator rather than activating anything on its own. If the door needs a touchless switch, order the 8310-816S; the 819F box is the enclosure an actuator sits in where the wall or jamb will not accept the plate directly.
9) Do I need a separate back box for the LCN 8310 touchless actuator, or does it come with one?
The actuator is the plate and electronics; a flush mount installation needs a box behind it in the wall. If you are surface mounting or the wall has no box, the Falcon 8310-819F rugged plastic actuator mounting box is in the same 8310 Series family and handles jamb and flush mount applications. Budget for the box and the low voltage run to the operator as separate line items on the job.
10) Is a stainless steel actuator worth it over plastic for a hospital or school entrance?
In high use and abuse locations, yes. The 8310-816S is stainless steel rather than plastic, and the plate sits flush to the wall instead of protruding, so it takes carts, gurneys, and backpacks without the impact damage a raised actuator collects. Stainless also holds up to repeated wipe-down with disinfectants, which matters in healthcare corridors more than it does in an office lobby.
11) How does the user know the LCN 8310-816S actually registered their wave? Nothing moves on a touchless plate.
It signals back two ways. The plate has illuminated edges and an audible tone that fire on activation, so the user gets confirmation even when the operator takes a moment to start the door. That feedback is the main practical difference from a plain push plate, where the mechanical click tells you it worked. In a noisy entry the lit edge does the job; in a low vision application the tone does.
12) How do I set the detection distance on the LCN 8310 touchless actuator after mounting?
It self-calibrates. The 8310-816S runs a learn cycle at setup that reads the surroundings and sets the detection zone and sensitivity, so you are not dialing in a pot by trial and error. That matters because a flush plate sees the wall around it, and the learn cycle is what keeps a reveal or a nearby door frame from reading as a constant target.
13) Can I wire an LCN 8310 wave actuator into a card reader or access control system so the door only opens when a credential is read?
Yes, and the Form C relay is what makes it straightforward. Because you get a normally open and a normally closed contact off a common, the actuator output can be run through the access control relay so the wave only passes to the operator when the system has released the door. On the free egress side you typically wire the interior actuator direct to the operator. This is a dry contact device; it carries no credential logic of its own.
14) I need to mount a switch on a narrow door jamb rather than the wall. Is the LCN 8310-816S the right choice?
The LCN 8310-816S is specified as a wall mount square actuator, so it wants a flat wall surface next to the opening. For a narrow jamb, the Falcon 8310-819F rugged plastic actuator mounting box is the 8310 Series part dimensioned for that condition at 1-1/2 inch by 4-3/4 inch rectangle, with jamb and flush mount capability. Plan the switch location first: if there is wall area beside the opening, the 8310-816S flush wall installation gives a touchless ADA compliant activation point with Wave To Open text, and it is still the actuator to specify where hands-free operation is the requirement.
