3 MACHINE INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION
The key-cutting machine can be installed by the purchaser and does not require any special skills.
It is supplied ready for use and does not need any special set up. However, the operator may have to control a few things
before operating the machine.
3.1 CHECKING FOR DAMAGE
UNOCODE PRO is solid and compact and will not normally damage if transport, unpacking and installation have all been
carried out according to the instructions in this manual. However, it is always advisable to check that the machine has not
suffered any damage.
3.2 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
To ensure that the best use is made of the key-cutting machine, it is important to place it in a well-aired area which is not
too damp.
The ideal conditions for the machine are: temperature between 10°C and 40°C; relative humidity: approx 60%
3.3 POSITIONING AND INSTALLATION
1) Place the machine on a horizontal surface, solid enough to support the weight of 38 Kg.
- to work with ease, we suggest that the workbench be approximately the height of the operator’s hip.
- it is important to leave clearance of at least 30 cm behind the machine and on each side to ensure proper venti-
lation.
2) Ensure that the machines voltage is the same as that of the mains power supply, which must be properly earthed
and provided with a differential switch.
3) Connect the power supply cable to the power supply socket.

4 “SET UP” AND USE OF THE MACHINE
4.1 USE OF THE CLAMP
Fig. 10
The four-sided clamp ensures excellent grip on the keys placed on their back or profile sides (fig. 11).
• Keys with 1 or 2 cuts to reproduce by code should be fitted mainly on the A and/or B side of the clamp.
• When copying with the optical reader the key can be fitted to any side (A, B, C or D) of the clamp.
- For keys to be cut by code the side of the clamp
on which to place the key is shown on the
machines display.
- For keys to be copied with the optical reader the
side of the clamp to be used is at the discretion
of the operator.
-
To fit keys with tip stops on the optic reader
clamp, fit the bar provided into the special
grooves (fig. 12).

Copyright Silca 2017 13
ATTENTION: the knobs are gauged so that they do not exert too much
pressure for closing (if pressure is too high they only idle), which would
damage the key and the parts of the clamp (including the knob).
To turn the clamps:
With loosened handle (E) a light rotation of the clamp is sufficient
(gripping by the 2 jaws) to turn it to the required side. Alignment is
automatic and guaranteed by the mobile pressure device (D5) (fig. 13).
Fig. 13
Note: before starting to cut a key the V100 clamp gauge goes automatically to the idle position so there is no need to
lower it, but the R100 clamp gauge must be lowered manually.
U SING THE PINS
Copying with the optical reader
For keys with narrow stems the pins must be placed between the bottom of
the clamp and the back of the key so that the key protrudes sufficiently out of
the clamp and therefore can be properly read and cut.
If the key has a narrow stem and is also very thin, 2 pins must be used (fig.
14).
Fig. 14
If the original key is broken, place a suitable sized pin in the groove of the keys stem so that it is properly held in place
and therefore can be copied (fig. 15).
Note: the diameter of the pin used for the original key must be the same as that of the pin used for the blank key; only
in this way will the two keys be locked in the same position.

4.2 CUTTING BY ELECTRIC CONTACT
The UNOCODE PRO key-cutting machine is equipped with a low voltage electrical contact device which permits the
cutter to individualize the key blank as it approaches the cutter during the cutting phase (fig. 16).
Fig. 16
This technical solution permits the operator to secure the key to the more appropriate side of the 4 faced clamp (A, B, C
or D) therefore improving the grip on the key and eliminating the need of pins and/or adaptors.
With the electrical contact card enabled, depth calibration is automatically calculated when the cutter touches the keys
profile during the cutting process.
Electrical contact is guaranteed for keys in steel, brass, silver nickel, Zamak or iron (with or without nickel-plating).
• Press F2 to enable or disable the electrical contact function to read the key blank measurements.
The symbol * in the clamp field means that the key will be cut reading the key
blank measurements by electrical contact.
A red “X” on the electrical contact icon means that it has been disabled.
Note: some cutting cards do not include electrical contact. In such cases the software does not allow
editing.
4.2.1 IMPROPER USE OF ELECTRIC CONTACT
It is not permitted to cut ultralite anodized aluminium keys, plastic keys or any keys with materials that
do not have electrical conductivity by means of electric contact.
ATTENTION: for these types of materials, insert standard cutting.
Cuts cannot be repeated on the same side of the key when electric contact cutting is used.
All data cards provided by Silca are in the machine’s memory. The cards are enabled or disabled for code cutting by
electric contact at Silca’s discretion.

4.3 FITTING THE CLAMP TO THE MACHINE
To remove the clamp unit:
- loosen the grub screw (D2) (fig. 17) and slide the clamp out of the
dovetail guide.
To install the clamp unit on the machine:
- slide the clamp into the dovetail guide, pushing it all the way in,
then secure it by tightening the grub screw (D2).
These instructions refer exclusively to the standard clamp (V100).
For the use of optional clamps please refer to the instructions
provided along with them.
Fig. 17
4.4 CUTTER
The majority of keys utilize the standard cutter for code cutting. Only in certain cases some special keys with particular
type cuts require different cutters.
To change the cutter see chapter 4.5.
4.5 CHANGING THE CUTTER
1) raise the protective shield.
2) remove the cutter protective shield (i) by loosening the screw (i2).
3) slide the cutter release rod (X) into the hole located on the left side of the machines cutter shaft chassis (fig. 18).
4) loosen the cutter locking nut (turning it clockwise) with the19 mm socket wrench (X1) provided with the machine.
ATTENTION: the thread is left-handed.
5) replace the cutter, then tighten the nut (turning it counter-clockwise) and remove the rod from its hole.
6) place the cutters protective shield (i) back into position securing it with the screw (i2).

5 UNOCODE PRO VERSION UTP
Note: UTP function is NOT enabled on Unocode PRO FLAT STEEL.
The UNOCODE Pro UTP (Unlimited Token Plan) is a “timed use” key-cutting machine.
On cutting the first key a free one month “UTP” is automatically activated. At the end of that
period a message appears: the customer has another 30 days in which to purchase a UTP
package.
At the end of the period (1 month free + 30 days) the machine can no longer be used to cut
keys (it is operative only for decoding ). To continue using all the machine functions contact
a Silca distributor to purchase another UTP package (Ch.6.11.2 "UTP SETTINGS").
• “UTP (Unlimited Token Plan)” is a special “timed digital token” that allows the machine to be used freely
(unlimited number of keys can be cut) for a given period (up to 31 December of the calendar year in
progress).
• When the UTP package has expired 30 days of Extratoken are available before the key-cutting function is
blocked. (Ch 6.11.2 "UTP SETTINGS").
• After purchasing a new UTP package download it from the Internet by means of the “Silca Remote
Service” program (SRS) (Ch.6.8.1 "DOWNLOAD THE UTP PACKAGE").
