REAR ROTATION WASHER ASSEMBLY
✓Depending on the type of rotation you want to obtain (clockwise-counterclockwise, 90 ° -180 °), one of the two rotation washers
supplied in the package must be installed on the back of the lock, as shown in the diagram below.
PREPARING THE LOCK FOR INITIAL PROGRAMMING
✓The lock is supplied unlocked (open) already in the correct position for programming.
✓We recommended you perform the mechanical lock installation before programming. For assemblies that require programming
prior to mechanical installation, contact Technical Support.
✓We recommend you carry out the mechanical installation following this procedure: insertion in the installation location, insertion
of washer, tighten the nut and then assemble the necessary accessories such as rotation washer, cam, flat washer and nut.
✓Before programming the lock, be sure to align the lock as shown below.

✓Follow the procedure below if the MASTER key (red) does not include the Access Control feature (codice standard EMK-01)
1. Insert the MASTER key (red) WITHOUT ACCESS CONTROL FUNCTION (product code EMK-03)
A single fast blink of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the start of the key pairing procedure; Remove the key from the lock
after the above signal has occurred.
2. Insert a USER key (black) that you want to pair with the lock.
A single long blink of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the pairing of the mono code key; Remove the key from the lock
after the above signal has occurred.
Caution: The initial insertion of the USER key (black) is only functional for lock programming. The USER key (black) can only open
the lock after the next insertion.
3. The programming procedure is now complete and all USER keys (black) using this mono code can now open the lock.
4. Repeat this process for each lock pairing the same key code or a different key code.
Note: From now on, no MASTER key (red) other than the one used for the initial programming will be able to perform any operation
on the lock.
INITIAL LOCK PROGRAMMING WITH ACCESS CONTROL FUNCTION
✓Lock Programming with Access Control requires:
•MASTER Key (red) with access control function (product code EMK-00)
•ACCESS CONTROL KIT (product code EPOD-00)
✓Follow the procedure below to program the lock
1. Before programming the lock and storing the USER keys (black), it is recommended to synchronize the USER keys (black) as
indicated in the "Access Control System" User Manual under the heading "Registration" of the keys "; If this step is not completed,
the USER keys (black) will not work, they will not be paired, and an error message will be shown via a blinking red LED ( )
2. Insert the MASTER key (red) into the lock with ACCESS CONTROL FUNCTION (product code EMK-02)
A single fast blinking of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the start of the mono code key pairing procedure; Remove the
key from the lock after the above signal has occurred.
3. Insert the USER key (black) that you want to pair.
A single long blink of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the correct pairing of the mono code key; Remove the key from
the lock after the above signal has occurred.
Caution: The initial insertion of the USER key (black) is only functional for lock programming. The USER key (black) can only open
the lock after the next insertion.
5. The programming procedure is now complete and all USER keys (black) using this mono code can now open the lock.
6. Repeat this process for each lock pairing the same key code or a different key code.
Note: From now on, no MASTER key (red) other than the one used for the first programming will be able to perform any operation
on the lock.

OPENING THE LOCK
1. Enter the previously stored mono code USER key inside the lock.
A single long blink of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the correct key recognition; Now the lock can be opened by
rotating the key.
In the event of an error in the recognition of the key or key insertion, it is advisable to wait 3-4 seconds before repeating
the operation.
Attention: in order to avoid an excessive consumption of the batteries contained inside each single key, it is
advisable, once the key has been opened, not to leave it in the lock for a period of more than 2 minutes.
2. A long blink of the red LED ( ) indicates an error message: Incorrect key insertion, unpaired key or unprogrammed lock.
RESET LOCK WITH MASTER KEY
Caution: The reset procedure will inhibit the operation of all mono code keys previously paired with the lock by restoring the factory
configuration. Therefore, at the end of the operation, the lock will be in the "Initial Programming" waiting state, therefore it can accept
any MASTER key (red) for programming.
1. In order to reset the lock, it is necessary to insert and extract the paired MASTER key (red) (used for the initial programming) in
succession for 5 times
1° insert (1 long red LED blink)
2° insert (1 long red LED blink + 1 fast green LED blink)
3° insert (1 long red blink + 2 fast green LED blink)
4° insert (1 long red blink + 3 fast green LED blink)
5° insert (1 long green LED blink and 1 long red LED blink)
The 5th signal on the key ( ) shows the effective lock reset, it has therefore reverted to the factory settings "Before
Programming"
SWITCHING TO ACCESS CONTROL FUNCTION
✓The Access Control feature can be enabled at any time, in a configuration that originally was not anticipated, using the Access
Control Kit (EPOD-00 product code) and the use of a new MASTER key (Red) EMK-00
✓To upgrade your system follow the steps below:
1. Perform the lock reset (see "Reset Lock with Master Key" on page 6) using the MASTER key (red) used for the initial
programming.
2. Re-execute the lock programming procedure with the NEW MASTER key (red) EMK-00 (see "Initial Lock Programming with
Access Control Function" on page 5)
✓Repeat this process for each lock

DOWNLOAD KEY (WITH GSN-KEY ACCESS CONTROL SOFTWARE)
✓The DOWNLOAD key (blue) is the key required for downloading the history access logs from the locks and to view them through
the GSN-KEY software.
✓The DOWNLOAD key (blue) can contain up to 32,000 logged events in its memory. It is recommended that you delete events from
the key once they have been transferred to the GSN-KEY software.
✓The lock can store up to 4,000 access events. Once the maximum memory capacity is reached, new events will overwrite the old
ones automatically
✓In the Unique Code version, the DOWNLOAD key is paired automatically during the programming of the lock and is matched to
the unique code of the production lot. For this reason, when the USER key (black) is paired with the lock, the DOWNLOAD key
having the same code will automatically be authorized to download the historical events on the lock.
✓To download the history of access events from the lock
1. Insert the DOWNLOAD key (blue) into the lock
Depending on the amount of data on the lock, long blink of the green LED will flash ( ) sequentially, with approximately
one second waiting between each.
2. A single long blink of the green LED will flash ( ) to indicate the correct transfer of the data in the lock onto the DOWNLOAD
key. Pull the key out of the lock after the above indicated signal.
3. If the DOWNLOAD key is extracted from the lock before completing the transfer of all the data in the lock, an error signal will
be output with a single fast blink of the red LED ( ). In this case, re-insert the DOWNLOAD key into the lock and retrieve the
data, awaiting the signal as indicated in step 2 before extracting the key.
✓To clear the history of access events in the lock memory
1. After downloading the data provided by the DOWNLOAD key (blue) and without opening the lock, insert the DOWNLOAD key
(blue) for the second time in the lock.
A single fast blink of the green LED will flash ( ) followed by a single long red blink of the red LED ( ) indicating that all
previously logged events on the lock have been cleared
✓To clear access data in the DOWNLOAD key memory (blue) you will need the ACCESS CONTROL KIT (refer to the Access Control
System User Manual for the process).
LOSS OR KEY FAILURE
✓Each key is supplied with an Identification Card (Key Identifier) that has all the necessary data for any duplication in case of
failure or loss. YOU ARE ADVISED TO STORE IT IN A SAFE PLACE AND TO NOT LOSE THE KEY IDENTIFIER.
✓MASTER KEY
