| Residence Lock – A lock with the residence function stays in unlocked mode by default. It can be locked either from inside by throwing the deadbolt or from the outside by pressing the “#” key three times (###), followed by a valid user PIN (Personal Identification Number) which is the code [Credential - PIN for E-Plex 2xxx/50xx and E-Plex 52xx; PIN, Card or PIN, Card or PIN & Card for E-Plex 5700 or in the case of E-Plex 5700, the PIN, Card or PIN followed by card, depending on the required access credential]. When the same or the next valid user enters the credential to open, the lock will open. It will stay in unlocked mode until you lock it back either from inside by throwing (projecting) the deadbolt or from outside by entering first # # # followed by a valid credential. If the deadbolt is thrown, and then you egress (leave the room) by turning the inside lever, the deadbolt will retract. The lock will open and will stay open. One application for locks of this type of functionality is in university dorms. Every time you flip the privacy thumbturn from the vertical (unlocked) to horizontal (privacy locked) position, the Red LED will flash once and when you flip it the other way (horizontal to vertical), the Green LED will flash once, in either case indicating the privacy status. |
