2.4
If the lock fails to open or acts strange, replace the batteries with good quality fresh alkaline 9-
volt batteries. To replace the batteries, simply turn the keypad housing counter-clockwise to
the stop and pull it away from the base. Un-snap the old batteries and clip on the new ones.
Position them in the pocket at the bottom of the housing and replace it, watching that the wires
are not pinched. You should replace your batteries once a year to prevent corrosion damage
from leaking batteries.
2.5
During any input sequence, if you make a mistake, you can press “C” to clear the previous
input and start over again.
2.6
The ESL20 uses a
fixed length 6 (six) digit combination
.
2.7
Use only your fingers to key the combination. Sharp objects will result in damage, which is not
covered by the warranty.
2.8
If at
any time
during opening or combination changing the unit is left without input for 10
seconds, it returns to a resting condition. If this occurs during a combination change, the Old
Combination is retained.
2.9
At
any time
during opening or combination changing the unit will register the first 5 digits of the
combination into the “buffer” that receives input. The 6
th
digit will be the last numeric key
pressed. For example, if your press
C-1-2-3-4-5
-7-4-5-2-7
-6-#
the program recognizes only
the C-1-2-3-4-5-6-# input. The last numeric key pressed continues to replace the one prior
until the “#” key is pressed to indicate completion. This is a security feature that allows you to
baffle an on-looker that may be trying to memorize your combination. This is the electronic
equivalent to a Spy proof Dial.
3
Users
There are 10 User Combinations possible. The Master User (User 0) is the one and only code that
is allowed to control all the other users, their access privileges and function setting. Users 1-8 are
only active if Multi-User mode is
Enabled
and the individual User Number has been
Enabled
and a
combination entered for that user by the Master User.
3.1 User 0: Designated the Master User. Has control over all Subordinate Users and setting of
all functions.
3.2 Users 1 through 8: Referred to as Subordinate Users. They only have access and privileges
as the Master User assigns them.
3.3 User 9:
Armored Car Code. This is a special code used only for the purpose of bypassing
the Time Delay. This code will not open the lock alone, only authorize an opening when Time
Delay is active.

Combination Changing
One of the strengths of an electronic safe lock is the quick and easy changing of the
combination(s). This adds to security because you can change it at will if you suspect your
combination is known by others.
The combination change method for the Primary code (Master User) can be done two ways, with or
without a User Number. All combination changes require and authorization code and two entries of
the new combo as verification.
Note:
In the event that Function 60 (Subordinate Combo Change) is set to Disable (F60=0), only
the Master Code will authorize a change.
4.1 Master User Code change:
At any time, the Master User combo can be changed by keying:
C - # - (Old Master Code) - # - (New Master Code) - # - (New Master Code) - #
4.2 Multiple User Mode Change and F60=1: Changing of any combination, including the Master
User Code, can be changed by the following sequence:
C- # - (User No.) - # - (Old User Code) - # - (New User Code) - # - (New User Code) - #
4.3 In the event Function 60 is Disabled (F60=0) or you are adding a new User, then the combo
change must be authorized with the Master User’s code:
C- # - (User No.) - # - (Master Code) - # - (New User Code) - # - (New User Code) - #
Combination Change Examples
The Master Combo is 159260 and you wish to change it to 918273. Do the following:
C-#-0-#-159260-#-918273-#-918273-#
or
C-#-159260-#-918273-#-918273-#
User 5’s combination is 342312 and you wish to change it to 768798
C-#-5-#-342312-#-768798-#-768798-#
User 5’s combination is unknown and you wish to set it to 768798, the Master Combo is 159260
C-#-5-#-159260-#-768798-#-768798-#

Lock Feature Setting and Function Codes.
The ESL20’s advanced features are controlled
only
by the Master User, and are set using Function
Codes. A function can be turned on and off, or set, using the Function Code with the Master User
code as authorization for changing or setting the function. A Function Code is a 2-digit code that
associates to a particular setting. Each Function Code has a default, or standard setting, which is in
the lock when there have been no changes or after a Function Reset (F99) has been executed.
They are as follows.
