Programming Notes
Add User Code:
Up to 50 User Codes can be saved. User Codes should be 4 to 8 digits in length.
For security reasons, the first 4 digits of each User Code must be unique. For
example, you are unable to program a User Code 1-2-3-4-5 as well as a User Code
1-2-3-4-6.
Press the lock button before entering your code to light up the keypad at night.
Enable/Disable Programming Code:
Optional: A Programming Code enables you to make programming changes without
needing to access the programming button. This is ideal for landlords to allow
programming from the outside without access to the interior programming button.
One Programming Code can be saved and should be 4 to 8 digits in length.
The Programming Code can not be the same as any User Code and will not
unlock the lock.
To program the lock when the Programming Code is enabled, instead of pressing
the programming button, enter the Programming Code, press the checkmark and
proceed with the remaining steps on page 19. Repeat the programming steps to
disable the Programming Code. Please note once a Programing Code is enabled,
the programming button is disabled and can only be used to factory reset the lock.
Delete All User Codes:
Keypad locking function will be disabled when User Codes are deleted. The lock
can only be operated manually by key during this time.
Enable/Disable Audio:
LED status indicator will still function once audio is disabled. Repeat the
programming steps to enable the audio.
