SECTION 2 - PROGRAMMING
Before You Start Programming: IMPORTANT! Make sure the 1520 has power and we suggest that you become familiar with
programming instructions before beginning any programming.
The Master Code has been pre-programmed at the factory to 9999. This programming sequence re-programs the MASTER
CODE if desired. The master code is the four-digit number required to gain access to the system memory. You MUST know the
master code before programming ANY features.
Important Note: After re-programming the master code, write it down and keep it in a safe place. There is no way of retrieving
the master code after it has been programmed in. If you forget it, you will have to program in a new one but all other previously
programmed information will remain intact.
The relay strike time sets the amount of time that the relay in the 1520 remains activated after a valid card (device) code is
received. Relay strike times can be programmed from 1/4 second - enter 0 0 *in step 2, up to 99 seconds - enter 9 9 *in step 2.
Factory setting for Relay is 01 (1 Second).
1. Press *0 3 and enter the MASTER CODE. [*0 3 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
2. Enter the two-digit strike time (00-99), then press *. [ _ _ *(beep)]
3. Press 0 # TOGETHER to end. [0 # (beeeeeep)]
Set the time of the day with a four-digit number (hr/min). For example, 8:30 is entered as 0830; 11:45 is entered as 1145.
When entering the MONTH, January = 01 and December = 12. The day of the month is always entered as a two-digit number;
1st day of the month is entered as 01, the 20th day is entered as 20, etc.
The YEAR is entered with the last two digits of the current year; 2014 = 14, 2015 = 15, etc.
The DAY OF THE WEEK is entered as a single digit; Sunday = 1, Monday = 2 .........Saturday = 7.
Note: The time and date must be programmed to allow transactions, real time printing and anti-pass back to work correctly.
1. Press *3 3 and enter the MASTER CODE. [*3 3 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
2. Enter the four-digit time of day (Hr/Min), then press *. [ _ _ _ _ *(beep)]

2.4.1 Programming CARD Time Zones
There are two types of time zones that can be used with the 1520; CARD time zones and HOLD time zones.
CARD time zones are applied to the individual card codes programmed into the system.
HOLD time zones activate and deactivate the relay in the 1520 at predetermined times.
There are SIX CARD time zones - referenced as time zones 0through 5. Only time zones 2through 5are programmable.
Time zone 0will always DENY a card entry.
Time zone 1will always GRANT a card entry.
The FOUR HOLD time zones - referenced as time zones 6through 9. They are programmable.
Time zone beginning and ending times must be entered in a four-digit 12-hour format (hr/min).
Example: 8:30 is entered as 0830; 11:45 is entered as 1145.
You need to program what days of the week the time zone will be active. All days of the week MUST be entered as a seven digit
number; Sunday = 1, Monday = 2 ...... Saturday = 7. If you want to skip a day (not active), enter #for those days to be skipped.
Note: All active days are entered first, then skipped days when programming the seven digit number.
Examples:
If a time zone is to be active Monday through Friday only, you need to enter: 23456##in the programming sequence.
If a time zone is to be active on the Weekend only (Saturday, Sunday), you would enter 17#####in the programming
sequence.
2.4 Time Zones
1. Press *3 8 and enter the MASTER CODE. [*3 8 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
2. Enter a single-digit time zone number (0 - 5), then press *. [ _ *(beep)]

1520-065-E-7-16 9
2.5.1 Programming a Single Card Code
In the following programming sequence, the term “card code” is also used to reference any 26-bit wiegand device code that is
being used with the 1520. For example, digital entry codes or RF transmitter codes are also referred to as “Card Codes”. Card
codes are always five-digits in length. Valid codes are 00000 – 65405.
Card codes can be programmed as a block of sequential codes or can be entered individually. When programming a single card
code, the beginning and ending card codes are the same. When entering a block of card codes, the 1520 will “beep” every few
seconds while the card codes are being programmed. When programming is complete, the system will emit a long beep. The
1520 will take about 1 minute to program 200 card codes. If different time zones will be assigned to different blocks of cards,
then these blocks will need to be programmed separately so that the correct time zones are applied. For example, if cards 01000
through 01010 are to be assigned time zone 1 (always GRANT entry), and cards 01011 through 01100 are assigned time zone
2, then these blocks have to be entered individually.
Each card code can be assigned two time zones. If using a single time zone, enter the time zone number twice in the two-digit
time zone field. For example, if using time zone 1 (always GRANT entry), enter 11 in step 4.
If you enter time zones that conflict with each other, the system evaluates each time zone individually starting with the first one.
For example, if 01 is entered in step 4, time zone 0 tells the unit to DENY entry while time zone 1 tells the system to always
GRANT entry. In this case, the system will first look at time zone 0, deny entry and then will look at time zone 1. Access will
then be GRANTED.
2.5 Card Code Programming
1. Press *1 7 and enter the MASTER CODE. [*1 7 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
2. Enter the five-digit card number, then press *. [ _ _ _ _ _ *(beep)]
3. Enter the five-digit card number AGAIN, then press *. [ _ _ _ _ _ *(beep)]
4. Enter the two-digit time zone number, then press *. [ _ _ *(beep) followed by Long Beeeep - programming ends]
Note: Two different time zones can be applied by entering two different numbers in the two-digit time zone field.
If ONLY using a single time zone (0 - 9), enter the time zone number twice in the two-digit time zone field.
Time zone 0 will always DENY entry.
Time zone 1 will always GRANT entry.
Time zone 2 - 5 are CARD programmable, see section 2.4.1.
Time zone 6 - 9 are HOLD programmable, see section 2.4.2.
5. Repeat steps 1 - 4 to enter additional card codes, one at a time.
1. Press *1 7 and enter the MASTER CODE. [*1 7 _ _ _ _ (beep)]
2. Enter the five-digit BEGINNING card number, then press *. [ _ _ _ _ _ *(beep)]
3. Enter the five-digit ENDING card number, then press *. [ _ _ _ _ _ *(beep)]
4. Enter the two-digit time zone number for these cards, then press *. [ _ _ *(beep)]
Note: Two different time zones can be applied by entering two different numbers in the two-digit time zone field.
If ONLY using a single time zone (0 - 9), enter the time zone number twice in the two-digit time zone field.
Time zone 0 will always DENY entry.
Time zone 1 will always GRANT entry.
Time zone 2 - 5 are CARD programmable, see section 2.4.1.
Time zone 6 - 9 are HOLD programmable, see section 2.4.2.
5. The system will emit a short beep every few seconds while programming the card codes.
When the short beeps stop, wait approximately 20 seconds for a long beep - programming is complete.
2.5.2 Programming a Block of Card Codes
Note: Card codes not programmed in the 1520 will not print or be stored in the transaction buffer. If you want a transaction of
denied card codes (for example - a lost card), then assign time zone 00 (always deny entry) in step 4.

1520-065-E-7-16
10
This programming sequence deletes a single card code and takes it completely out of memory to free up space for other card
codes. Card codes not programmed in the 1520 will not print or be stored in the transaction buffer. If you want a transaction of
denied card codes (for example - a lost card), then assign time zone 00 (always deny entry) in card programming 2.5.1.
Facility codes can be used to prevent the same card code from working at a different site or facility.
The 1520 allows you to enter up to 10 different facility codes and allows you to decide whether to use facility codes or not.
Facility codes are three-digits in length. Valid facility codes are 000 – 255. Simply entering a facility code does not turn this
feature on. It is programmed to turn ON or OFF in section 2.6.2.

2.7.1 Anti-Pass Back ON/OFF
The 1520 has a timed anti-pass back feature that will prevent a card code from being used within a period on time from the last
use of the card code. To use the anti-pass back feature, you must set the time and date (section 2.3), set the pass back time (1
to 59 minutes) and turn the anti-pass back feature ON. Factory default is OFF.
2.7 Timed Anti-Pass Back
These programming steps allow you to turn the real time print feature of the 1520 ON or OFF. When turned ON, the printer will
print the transaction as it occurs and store it in the transaction buffer. When turned OFF, the transaction is stored in the transac-
tion buffer for printing at a later time. See Section 1.4 1520 Wiring for printer connection.
Factory default is OFF.
2.9 Real-Time Print Mode
2.8 Clear Transaction Memory
The test mode allows you to determine if a card reader or other wiegand device connected to the 1520 is functioning or not.
