Tip 1: If you have done the “EZSmart soft reset / hardware reset”,
you have to delete lock from App first for all known devices, and
this will prevent previous devices try to pair with BKL16 by using
the old encrypted eKey. This can lockup the system from
Registration.
Tip 2: In order to get the correct Battery level, you have to
perform ‘Unlock/Lock’at least four times (only for registration
mode). Hint: EZSmart lock uses battery to drive the motor, it
requires calibration against each motor.
◢Use passcode registration steps to complete the EZSmart
lock registration. If Owner registration is successful within 10
seconds (some Android may take longer time); EZSmart Lock
will beep once to complete registration.
Tip: If registration fails the first time, please use Hardware Reset
procedure and start over again. Or use correct passcode to
register again as shown on "Soft Reset with New Passcode"
steps. Caution note: Incomplete hardware reset will go to "Auto
Testing Mode", which will indicate by continuously beeping
sound. Please try it again.

once to match your "unlock distance preference".
