Schlage Electronics CT-5000 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Schlage CT-5000 offline controller used for?
The CT-5000 is an offline access control controller that manages up to 5,000 users. It operates independently without network connection and uses Wiegand protocol for card reader communication.
2) Is the HHD kit required for operation?
Yes, the HHD (Hand Held Device) kit is required but sold separately. This programming device allows you to configure users, time zones, and system settings on the CT-5000 controller.
3) What card readers are compatible with this controller?
The CT-5000 works with Wiegand 26-bit card readers. Most proximity card readers and keypad readers that output standard Wiegand protocol will be compatible.
4) Can this controller handle multiple doors?
The CT-5000 is designed for single door control. For multi-door applications, you would need multiple controllers or consider a networked access control system.
5) What power requirements does the CT-5000 have?
Check the manufacturer specifications for exact power requirements. Most offline controllers require 12VDC power supply. Verify voltage and current capacity before installation.
6) How do you program user credentials into the system?
User programming requires the HHD kit. The handheld device connects to the controller to add users, assign access levels, set time restrictions, and configure system parameters.
7) What wiring connections are needed for installation?
Typical connections include power input, Wiegand data lines from card reader, door strike/maglock output, door position sensor input, and request-to-exit button. Follow manufacturer wiring diagrams for specific terminal assignments.
8) Can the controller store event history?
Most offline controllers have limited event storage capacity. Check specifications for exact number of events stored. Events are typically retrieved using the HHD programming device.
9) What happens during power loss?
The controller typically retains user data and programming in non-volatile memory. Consider battery backup for continuous operation during power outages. Door position will depend on fail-safe or fail-secure lock configuration.
10) Are there other Schlage controller models available?
Schlage offers various access control solutions with different user capacities and features. Browse our Schlage Electronics section for networked controllers and integrated systems.
11) What environmental conditions can this controller handle?
Most access controllers are designed for indoor installation in controlled environments. Verify temperature and humidity ratings if installing in extreme conditions or outdoor enclosures.
