Question

How to Reset LA GARD 700 Series Lock?

Answer

Each LA GARD safe lock can be reset to factory defaults. This function is particularly useful when switching out a piece of the overall System that has a different model number than the previous version. A lock reset can be done one of two ways:

1. Master Reset via the Keypad (both Display and Non-Display versions)
2. Mechanical Reset via the Reset Box (Item/Order # 704065).

When a lock is reset:

• The Master Combination is reverted to the default (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8).
• All Managers and Standard Users are deleted.
• All System and lock settings will be reset to their default.
• All locks will be uninstalled and unpaired from any Keypad.

Two items will not be deleted:

1. Audits.
2. Open count.

Note: Reset operations via reset box or via Master code reset will result in

  a. UTC time in lock will not be reset unless power has been removed for a period of time.

  b. DST rules tables will be defaulted to be no adjustments for any time zones.

  c. Time Zone will be set to GMT.

  d. DST observed flag will be set to true.
