AllegionLCN Benchmark® AU9100 SeriesLow Energy OperatorsInstallation Manual
LCN Low Energy Operators should be installed in accordance with the current Allegion LCN installation instructions.
Commissioning and Servicing of installed units must be carried out by an Allegion Approved, Authorised Technician
1 GENERAL
The LCN Benchmark® 9100 Series is an automatic electromechanical swing door operator for use on hinged, centre pivoted, and offset pivoted doors. The controller is a microprocessor based system, tracking the door position at any time during the cycle. When activated the Benchmark® 9100 drives the door to the full open position creating the potential energy in the spring. When closing the electrical power is reduced and the door closes by controlling the potential energy release in the spring force. The activating circuit opens the door from any position on the closing swing. During power failure the Benchmark® 9100 acts as a manual door closer (size 3). Door opening and closing cycles, including opening speed, back check speed, hold open time delay, closing speed, and latch position are all adjustable.
WARNING! Always disconnect main power to the operator prior to servicing or cleaning

10.1 OPERATION
10.1.1 Sizing
From start up (size) the door will activate from morning entry (24Hrs,T9, T10) regardless of key switch position, 1 Way input (T27,T28) with key switch in one way. 2 Way input (22, T23) with key switch in two way, or key switch Hold Open. The first movement will be in the open direction – The speed of the sizing cycle is automatic and cannot be set from a potentiometer the door drives opened to the full open position where the system sets the counter to full open. The door closes at close speed then latch up to closed position where the system sets the counter for closed position. From these two parameters opened and closed position the system calculates all the other parameters it requires for normal operation i.e. latch position back check position etc.
- NotesIf the encoder is connected for opposite direction or faulty or disconnected the door will operate erratically continuously opening ½ way closing latching and re-opening. This will continue to occur until power is switched off
10.1.2 Auto Reverse on open
The auto reverse open is set from the backcheck position pot. This sets the level of current required to trip the door as it is opening.
Normal operationKey switch, activation, morning entry/fire alarm, locking, and safety.
10.1.3 Standard operation
Upon a legitimate activation signal the door accelerates up to open speed, monitoring the current load on the drive output. (If the current reaches a level above the set datum the door will stop and close). The door travels at the set speed (Potentiometer setting) until it reaches the set backcheck position, where the speed (Potentiometer setting) is decreased to back check speed. When the door stops at hold open position the system sets the hold open speed and holds the door open until activation and or timer is cleared. The door will then close at close speed, (Potentiometer setting) up to latch position (Potentiometer setting). Where the speed is decreased by driving the motor in the open direction (fixed setting), the power is set such that the spring will overcome this power and continue to allow the door to close up to the closed position. During the open cycle the safe opening (T1, T2) is active and the Safety side Adj Pot sets the angle at which the sensor is redundant, this can be set from Closed up to back check position. During the closing cycle the safe closing (T5, T6) is active and the Activate side Adj pot sets the angle the sensor is redundant, this can be set from Opened up to a few degrees of closed position.
General24Hr operates the door regardless of key switch position the door will drive open and remain in the open position as long as the contact is made (Program 4 is the exception) Key switch position OFF no activation or safety operates. Electric lock operates when door closed dependant upon function selection Electric lock operation is set from the function selector the time delay is fixed Key switch Position 1 Way the activation from internal Activate (T27, T28) safety operates. Electric lock operates when door closed dependant upon function selection Key switch Position 2 way the activation from internal Activate (T27, T28) and external Activation (T22, T23) safety operates. Electric lock does not operate when door closed Key Switch H.O The door operates to the open position and remains in the open position safety is by passed (If safety activated the door will open slowly)
