This section provides general rules for how user codes, programming sequences, and user memory operate on E‑Plex 30xx and 50xx series locks. Understanding these principles helps ensure accurate programming and prevents lockout conditions.
General rules for User Code and Programming in E‑Plex 30xx and 50xx series locks
- Master and Manager Codes can do two different things:
• Open the door by entering the Access Code without # signs.
• Put the lock into Pushbutton Programming Mode by entering # before and after their Access Code. - Each user (Manager User, Service User or Access User) occupies one of the available 300 locations in the user table.
- By default, user 000 is the Master User.
- The M-Unit User is outside of the user table (only applicable with “E-Plex Standard” PC software use).
- Users have a 15-second period to enter the entire key sequence, and 5 seconds between pressing each pushbutton number. If they pause longer than 5 seconds between each pushbutton pressed, or exceed the 15-second period to enter the total sequence, the lock:
• aborts the current programming sequence
• automatically exits the programming state
• sends the user a ‘Keypad Timeout’ feedback message
Note: Correct errors during a command sequence. If an invalid entry occurs, recover from the mistake by entering the (*) key, which will clear all entries made from the beginning of the current command sequence, and will reset the 15-second time limit for entering the code. In this case, you still have 15 seconds from the first number entered to enter the whole code.
