Configuring the Lock
General Procedure for Pushbutton Programming
1.
The pages that follow provide step-by-step instructions for
programming the E-Plex 5000 lock.
2.
The general procedure for all programming functions is as follows:
a. Put the lock in Programming Mode by pressing # Master
Code #
b. Use the Summary of Commands Table in the appendix section
of this guide to enter the three digit command sequence
(Command Type + Function Code), followed by #.
c. Enter the appropriate numbers as required.
d. Press # to end Programming Mode.
e. Once the lock is in programming mode, multiple command
sequences can be entered without having to repeat the
#mastercode#. However, if there is no activity for 15
seconds at the keypad, the lock will automatically exit
from programming mode.
For example
•
If the Master or Manager enters his code of
00004992, the
door will open.
•
If he enters
#00004992#, the lock will enter into the
Programming Mode and wait for the next part of the command.
•
If he enters the # sign twice at the end of the code, for
example
#00004992##, the lock will go out of Programming
Mode and return to its normal mode.
Note: The # pound sign acts like the Enter key on a keyboard in your
communications with the lock. The # tells the lock that one part of the
entry is finished. The # serves another purpose - to distinguish a
programming type command from a simple Access Code to open the
door. A Master or Manager User can use the same number to open the
door or to put the lock in Programming Mode, the only difference being
that he uses the # sign in front to signal that he is about to enter a
programming command. For increased security, it is recommended that
the master user code not be used for everyday access. This can be
accomplished by creating an access user code for the master user.
