Allegion Schlage AD-300 networked, hardwired locks can be integrated seamlessly with the Doors.NET software when
used with the NXT-MSC (Mercury-Powered controllers). You can connect and communicate with up to 16 AD-300s from
one controller via the RS-485 port. The AD-Series locks have extensive functionality and operating modes and are
combined units consisting of the electric lock, credential reader, Request-to-Exit and Request-to-Enter sensors, door
position switch and tamper guard.
For standard applications the AD-300 can be customized with a variety of credential readers including keypad, magnetic
stripe or multi-technology which can read both proximity and smart-card technology.

4. The Allegion button and IPB will both light green for one second and a one-second beep will be heard. This indicates
that the lock has been reset. If IPB is not pressed 3 times within 10 seconds, two beeps with two red blinks indicating
a timeout and procedure must be repeated.
5. Replace the top inside cover.
4.0 Configuring the AD-300 Lock
The Schlage Utility Software (SUS) is an application that runs on the Schlage™ Handheld Device (HHD). It is used to
configure, edit and program all supported devices. You can use the software and HHD to; edit the AD-300 lock properties,
update the lockset's firmware, couple the HHD to the device, set the date/time and run diagnostics.
This section assumes that you have already:
• Downloaded and installed the Synchronization Software
• Connected the HHD to your PC
• Configured the Synchronization Software
• Updated the SUS
4.1 Connecting the HDD programmer to the AD-300
1. Turn on the Hand Held Device (HHD) by pressing the power button on the top of the right side.
2. Remove the stylus from the back lower right side of the HHD.
3. On the HHD Home Screen, use the stylus to tap the Start button.
4. Tap the Utility Software link from the drop down list.
5. Login into the HHD as Manager (the default password is 1 2 3 4 5 6), then click Login.
6. Connect the USB cable to the HHD.

7. Plug the HHD USB cable into the lock’s USB port located at the bottom of the exterior housing.
8. Press the Allegion button twice to activate the USB port on the lock.
4.2 Coupling the HDD to the AD-300 Lock
AD-Series locks can be coupled, or authenticated, with the HHD. This provides enhanced security by ensuring that the
lock will only communicate with HHD(s) to which it has been coupled. Once the lock has been coupled, the Coupling
Password is passed to the device from the HHD during programming. HHDs with the same coupling password can
program the same devices. Each HHD with a different coupling password must be coupled with each device it will
program.
Note: The HHD will use a default Programming Password (123456) when coupling with a device. The programming
password should be changed to provide increased security for your locks.
1. Plug the HHD’s USB cable into the AD-300’s USB port located underneath the exterior side of the lock.
2. Remove the top inside lock cover of the AD-300.
3. Within the Utility Software on the HHD, select Device Options.
4. Press and hold the IPB, press and release the tamper switch three times then release the IPB... The IPB will flash
indicating the AD-300 is in coupling mode.
5. On the HHD, select Couple HHD to Device.
6. When coupling is successful, a message will appear on the screen of the HHD
7. Unplug the HHD USB cable from the lock's USB port

7.0 Wiring the NXT-MSC 2D/4D Controller to the AD-300
• With an RS-485 cable between the AD-300 and the NXT-MSC controller the communication range is up to 4,000ft.
• The AD-300 locks can be daisy-chained up to a maximum of 16 locks per bus.
• There is a maximum limit of 16 locks per NXT-MSC controller. For more than 16 AD-300s you will require
additional NXT-MSC controllers.
Note: You cannot power the locks from the NXT-MSC controller's RS-485 power supply. You must use a UL 294 Listed
Power Supply capable of sourcing at least 250mA @ 12 or 24 VDC.
8.0 Configuring Doors.NET for the AD-300
This section assumes the NXT (MSC) 2-door or 4-door controller is online, configured and ready to add the AD-300 to
the database. (Refer to the NXT (MSC) controller Quick Start Guide for further details about setting up and configuring
this controller type with Doors.NET).
1. Log in to Doors.NET and go to Setup > Hardware Setup > All.
2. On the hardware tree you will see the gateway node and the NXT (MSC) controller(s).
3. Expand the controller and highlight the bus which the AD-300 is connected to.
4. From the hardware ribbon select the Add AD-300 icon.

3. You can right-click the AD-300 in the hardware tree or from the doors status grid and select Mode > Extended.
4. You can setup a Local Linkage Procedure to set one of the extended modes.
There are numerous system events that can be defined as Local Linkage Triggers but the event must be generated from the
same controller to which the AD-300 is connected. For example: an Extended Feature could be set from a double card
presentation, when a certain input goes active/secure or if a tamper input is active/secure on the lock. Refer to the online
help for more information about using Local Linkage with Allegion AD series locks.
NOTE: Local Linkage is an additional add-on module and is not included in the standard version of the software.

select a passage or secured status. Opening the door or pressing the interior push button causes the lockset to toggle
unsecured. While toggled unsecured, the lockset can only be secured while the door is closed by pressing the interior push
button or using a normal credential on the exterior. Normal electronic access from the exterior is always allowed.
Apartment Mode with Mortise Deadbolt
Device is normally secured. Upon presenting normal credential to exterior the device permanently unlocks. Upon
extending the deadbolt with thumb turn on the interior the device relocks to normally secured state (not Privacy state).
