Question How to program the (Global) Access Pin Length in E-Plex 36xx/37xx/56xx/57xx Series Locks? |
Answer PINs are required for Access users and Manager users in PIN & Card access mode and also for all Service users since they have only PIN access. Setting the length of Access PIN must be the first lock programmable function you perform, because all of your other access PINs (except for the Master) must have the same length. If a user enters a PIN of a different length, the lock will not accept it. Longer length Access PINs permit a greater number of PIN combination possibilities, and thus higher security. The Master credential PIN length must always be 8 digits which cannot be changed. Required User Level: Master
Important: This global user PIN length setup and the BHMA Lock Function setup operations are the only two programmable functions that can be done during the factory mode using the factory default Master PIN. Changing the factory default Master PIN to a new Master PIN has to be done here also. For the BHMA Lock Function setup instructions, please refer to the applicable “E-PLEX Lock Function Setup Guide” that came with this lock.
