States of the Lock
Factory Mode
The factory mode is one of three primary states of the E-Plex Lock. The main
characteristics of this state are:
• The E-Plex Lock opens only when the 8-digit master
combination (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8) is keyed in.
• The visual indication for ‘access granted’ is green LED flashing once.
A high-pitched tone is also generated while the green LED is on.
• The Master User must change the combination to be able to exit the
factory mode, and switch to the access mode.
Access Mode
This mode refers to a lock that is operational for user access, and not in facto-
ry or Programming Mode.
Pushbutton Programming Mode
The E-Plex lock enters the Pushbutton Programming Mode when the user
enters the master combination or one of the manager combinations, preceded
and followed by the character ‘#’ (ex: #12345678#). Once the E-Plex Lock is in
the Pushbutton Programming Mode, the Master/Manager can enter one or more
command sequences. Each command sequence ends with a ‘#’ character that
acts like an < enter > character. At the very end of all sequences of program-
ming commands, enter one more # to remove the lock from the Pushbutton
Programming Mode to return to normal access mode.
Sequence of Operations for Start-Up Programming
What is the recommended sequence of operations?
With the E-Plex Lock in the factory mode.

The access
code field length can only be changed when the lock is not activated

• Change factory Master to your own Master Code (always eight digits) to
place lock in access mode.
