Question

What are the states of the Lock in E-Plex 36xx/37xx/56xx/57xx Series Locks?

Answer

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 Locks 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.
• Important: The Master User must change the factory default Master combination to be able to exit the factory mode and switch to the access mode for normal use of the lock

Access Mode (up to 300 users per lock in LearnLokTM mode)
This mode refers to a lock that is operational for user access, and not in factory or Programming Mode.

“LearnLokTM” 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: #87654321#). 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 programming commands, enter one more # to remove the lock from the Pushbutton Programming Mode to return to normal access mode.
