Construction access mode
Construction access mode is used to allow access before the lock has been programmed,
and for testing purposes.
• Enabled by default.
• The lock will remain in construction access mode
until the mode is cancelled as described below.
• No audits are captured while lock is in construction
access mode.
Create the master construction credential - locks
with card readers
The rst card presented to a new lock automatically
becomes the master construction credential!
1. Press and hold the Schlage button while presenting
a credential.
2. This credential becomes the master construction
credential and is used to program
construction
access
.
3. The Schlage button will blink green on the left and
right as conrmation.
After you have created the master construction
credential, you can then use that card to add construction
access mode user credentials.
LThe master construction credential will not
grant access. It is used only to add additional
credentials.
Add construction access mode user credentials - locks with card readers
1. Present the master construction credential to the lock. The schlage button will light.
2. Present the user credential to be added within twenty (20) seconds. The user credential
will be added to the lock database.
3. Repeat for additional user credentials.
LCredentials added using the master construction credential will have normal
24/7 access.
Cancel construction access mode
Do one of the following:
• Program the lock with the SUS. See the SUS user guide for more information.
• Reset the lock to factory settings. See Reset to factory defaults on page 11 for more
information.
When construction mode is cancelled, the master construction credential and all other
credentials added using the master construction credential will no longer function.
Locks with keypads
In the factory default state, ofine locks with keypads, with or without additional credentials,
have a default PIN of 13579 and “#”, which can be used for installation, testing and construction
access. To test, enter default PIN. The Schlage button will blink and the lock will unlock.
The default PIN, 13579 and “#” is automatically deleted when a construction access user
credential is added to the lock, or a new programming credential is created, or the lock is
programmed with the SUS.
TIPS
Use the same Master
Construction Credential for all
the locks in the facility.
If you present the rst card
to a new lock to create
the Master Construction
Credential and the card is not
accepted, the lock has either
been programmed or already
has a Master Construction
Credential.
If the Master Construction
Credential cannot be located,
or to put the lock back into
construction access mode,
reset the lock to factory
settings. See Reset to factory
defaults on page 11 for
more information.
