Product Information: CM-221M Touchless Exit Switch with Remote
LED Triggering
The CM-221M Touchless Exit Switch is a door activation device
that allows you to unlock your door or trigger your door operator
to open the door without having to touch the switch. It comes with
a remote LED triggering feature that allows you to control the LED
states remotely. This unit operates on 12 to 24 VDC +/- 10% voltage
and has a current peak of 45 mA. It has a PIR contact rating of 1
Amp @ 30 VDC with common, N.O., and N.C. contacts. The switch is
available in two dimensions – Narrow (1 3/4 W x 4 1/2 H x 1 1/4 D)
and Single Gang (2 3/4 W x 4 1/2 H x 1 1/4 D).

Features:
- Touchless operation
- Remote LED triggering
- Toggle feature to trigger the door to remain in the unlocked
position - Adjustment for distance (2 to 8, 5 to 20 cm)
- Adjustment for time delay (0.5 to 20 seconds) for toggle
Operation at a Glance:
In a typical application, as you approach the CM-221, the LED
will be red. When you wave your hand in front of it, it will change
the LED to green and trigger its relay to change state and unlock
your door, or trigger the door operator to open the door. The
toggle feature can be used to trigger the door to remain in the
unlocked position until you wave your hand a second time to relock
it.
Installation Instructions:
- Make sure not to use AC Voltage for this unit. Refer to section
8 for power requirements. - Configure the CM-221M by adjusting the range of detection and
output duration. - Wire the CM-221M to a maglock by connecting the ground (-) of
the maglock to the ground (-) of the VDC power supply. Next,
connect the (+) of the maglock to the (N.C.) of the manual
pushbutton. Connect the common (com) of the manual pushbutton to
the PIR sensor purple wire (normally closed.) Jumper the PIR sensor
blue (common) and red (power +) wires and then connect them to the
(+) positive terminal of the DC power supply. Wire the PIR sensor
black (-) wire to the negative (-) terminal of the DC power
supply.
Configuring the CM-221M:
The CM-221M can also have its LED states controlled remotely.
This is done by installing the supplied jumper from the parts bag
onto the two pins on the back of the unit. Once installed, the
green and red LED’s can be triggered to change by bringing either
one low (to ground). The yellow wire controls the green LED,
whereas, the white wire controls the red LED. They can be
individually turned on or off, or they can be wired to a SPDT
contact to turn red on and green off, or vice versa.
Mode pins: Open (Default position)= Internal mode where the LED
colours will be controlled by the IR sensor. Shorted = External
mode where the LED colours will be controlled by Yellow and White
wires.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CM-221M Hands-Free Switch uses active infra-red microburst sensor technology, designed for use in ADA compliant automatic door control applications and access control. The CM-221M switches eliminate the spread of germs by avoiding physical contact, and provide greater convenience when moving through the premises. The switches are available with stainless steel faceplates, in narrow (jamb) or single gang. All models are ROHS compliant with lead-free construction. Built-in remote LED switching allows for integration with third-party applications, such as guard and nurse station annunciators. Adjustable time delay from 0.5 to 20 seconds and an adjustable range from (2″ to 8″ / 5cm to 20cm).

5. CONFIGURING THE CM-221M
Range of Detection and Output Duration
Looking at the back of the CM-221M with the Mode pins located at the top, you will see two adjustment potentiometers. The one on the left can be turned clockwise to set the range of detection (2″ to 8″ / 5cm to 20cm), and the one on the right will set the duration of the output (0.5 to 20 seconds). If the output needs to be triggered and maintained in that state until triggered once more, then the Toggle feature can be used by turning the output duration adjustment potentiometer to the fully clockwise position.
Remote LED Switching
The CM-221M can also have its LED states controlled remotely. This is done by installing the supplied jumper from the parts bag onto the two pins on the back of the unit. Once installed the green and red LED’s can be triggered to change by bringing either one low (to ground). The yellow wire controls the green LED, whereas, the white wire controls the red LED. They can be individually turned on or off, or they can be wired to a SPDT contact to turn red on and green off, or vice versa.
MODE PINS: OPEN (Default position)= Internal mode where the LED colours will be controlled by
the IR sensor. SHORTED = External mode where the LED colours will be controlled by Yellow and
White wires.
Adjustment for distance (2″ to 8″, 5 to 20 cm) Turn clockwise to increase range
Adjustment for time delay (0.5 to 20 seconds) For Toggle.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
7. POWER
The CM-221M is a VDC device only and will accept a range of VDC power from 12VDC to 24VDC (+/- 10%). Do not connect AC voltage to the CM-221M at any time.
Note: A linear output VDC power supply is strongly recommended. If using power from other than Camden’s CX-PS13 filtered regulated power supply, you must measure the provided power before applying power to the CM-221M. Voltages of more than 10% over the specified acceptable range or using a power supply with large amounts of AC voltage on it (unfiltered unregulated power such as a transformer and a rectifier) may damage the CM-221M and void the warranty.
