How should the door be operated?

The ED operator creates flexibility through various operating modes. Selection can be made using the internal program switch, an external program switch, or the dormakaba Door Pilot app (requires Door Pilot Interface/Bluetooth).

Standard Operating Modes

Off

The ED operator is not active.

Automatic

The ED operator opens and closes according to the functions set. Both inside and outside pulse transmitters are active.

Exit

The ED operator opens and closes according to the functions set. Only the inside pulse transmitters are active (often used for one-way traffic or closing time).

Permanently Open

The ED operator keeps the door permanently open.

Partially Open

Only the active leaf is automated in 2-leaf systems.

Basic Functions

Push-and-Go

Brief “tapping” or pushing of the door leaf manually triggers the automatic opening cycle. The door then opens and closes autonomously. The hold-open time can be set individually.

Manual Access with Door Closer Function

The door responds in the same way as a manual door with door closer-like action. The closing force and hold-open time are adjustable.

Barrier-Free Access (EN 1154)

Power Assist Function

The Power Assist function enables servo-controlled, manual access to the door. The servo control automatically adjusts to the set door closer size, significantly reducing the opening force required.

• Compliance: The force is adjustable to comply with DIN 18040, DIN Spec 1104, CEN/TR 15894, BS 8300/2100, document “M”, and EN 7.
• Standards: Meets the requirements of EN 1154 while providing barrier-free access in standard operation mode.

Advanced Features & MotionIQ

Optimised Automatic Opening (MotionIQ)

MotionIQ permanently assesses movements in the vicinity of the door within a range of up to 4.5 m x 10 m. As soon as MotionIQ detects a person with the intention to access, it calculates the optimum opening time and hold-open time to improve energy efficiency and user convenience.

Functions with Accessories

External Pulse Transmitters

Automatic opening via manual release pushbuttons, key switches, telephone, and speaker systems. The door opens automatically and closes after a pre-set hold-open time (mono-flop) or a repeated pulse (flip-flop).

Access Control (Night/Bank Function)

The door opens only after release by an access control device such as a card reader, coding switch, or biometric scanner. Option: The night/bank function can close the door after a repeated pulse (flip-flop function available with Upgrade Card Professional).

Remote Control / BRC Remote System

Using the BRC remote system, the opening pulse can be sent wirelessely:

• BRC-H 3: Hand-held transmitter
• BRC-W: Wall transmitter
• BRC-T: Battery-operated transmitter (integrates existing pushbuttons into the wireless system)

Radar Sensors (Motion Sensors)

The door opens automatically as soon as the sensor detects a person in the detection range. The door closes after a pre-set hold-open time.
