Interlock controller

by Mark Rowe

Videx Security’s new VX126 two door Interlock Controller is a boxed PCB designed for security applications including air locks. The system ensures that both doors cannot be operated at the same time. By linking multiple units together with additional PCBs it is possible to create a larger system with more than two entrances, while only allowing a single entry point to be open at any time.

The doors are operated by a push button or can be triggered by Videx or third party access control systems including an intercom. Door contacts are required to monitor the door status and two dry contact relays allow connectivity of fail safe, or fail secure, locks.

The controller features selectable relay times of 2.5, 5, 7.5 or ten seconds as well as follow door sensors which allow relays to de-activate as soon as the door is closed, adding extra security. A sequential door opening feature lets the opposite door in use open automatically once the current door has closed.

The product comes in a white ABS housing. It has accessible terminal blocks and is powered from 12Vdc power supply.
