READER STATUS LEDS
The Via Lock reader is equipped with three status LEDs. These LEDs make it very simple to com-
mission the systems and monitor its ongoing operation. When a card is presented:
1. Connect the following cables to the Control Unit (see Figure 4 for location).
•
LED Cable and Reader Cable from the Via Reader
•
Lock Motor Cable and the REX Cable from the Lockset
•
Door Contact Cable from the Door Contact (optional)
2. Snap 4 AA batteries in the battery holder to power up the Control Unit (see Figure 4).
3. Press the Reset button.
•
The RED LED will flash ONCE to confirm that the card was read.
•
The GREEN LED will flash ONCE to confirm that the Wiegand
data has been sent to the Via Hub.
•
The YELLOW LED may flash ONCE to indicate that the transac-
tion was successfully received by the Hub but the signal level is weak.
This could be caused by the introduction of a physical obstruction
which was not present the the Via Lock was initially installed.
•
The YELLOW LED may flash TWICE if the battery level is low.
•
The YELLOW LED may flash THREE times if the signal level is
weak AND the battery level is low.
•
If access is granted, the Lock will beep ONCE and the GREEN LED
will come on momentarily.
•
If access is denied, the RED LED will flash TWICE.
•
If the battery level is so low that the card data cannot be sent to the
Hub, the RED and YELLOW LEDs will come on momentarily when
a card is presented.

DIP SWITCH “E” - PROGRAM MODE
This is the large RED switch and is used to put the board into PROGRAM or RUN mode. When-
ever ANY of the programming DIP switches are changed, the PROGRAM DIP switch must be set
to PROGRAM (UP/ON) and the reset pushbutton to its immediate right must be momentarily
pressed. This loads the defined program values into memory and verifies them. When the PRO-
GRAM function is completed, the Via control unit will beep and will continue to beep until the
DIP switch is returned to the RUN position (DOWN/OFF) and the reset switch is pressed again.
The Via Lock will then attempt to connect to it’s assigned Via Hub. You can verify that it is con-
nected by operating the inside lever. If the event is detected and successfully transmitted to the
Hub, the blue Connection Status LED in the top left corner of the controller board will blink once.
