AL-DTM-III PROCEDURAL CHANGES FOR THE PL3000 / PL3500
The procedure below is required only when a PC or DTM communication Function Card is not presently enrolled in the lock; i.e. the lock is new ("out-ofbox"), or the lock has had all programming erased (restoring factory default).
PC/DTM Communications
Previous versions of the AL-DTM did not require the "299" code (Function Card #2) to be presented twice; the AL-DTM-III does require Function Card #2 to be presented twice, and therefore the AL-DTM "299" Function Card #2 must be enrolled into the lock prior to using the AL-DTM-III.
Note: When using the new PL3500 with DL-Windows 3.5 (or higher), the AL-DTM-III must be used . Direct PC communications is not currently supported, and the PL3500 must be setup as a PL3000 lock-type in DL-Windows 3.5 (or higher).
Procedure:
All lock programming MUST be erased to restore the "out of box" factory default, as follows:
PL3000:
Follow the Erase All Programming instructions in the " Wiring and Power Up " section in WI1280, in which the shunt connector is plugged into the yellow wire connector.
PL3500:
Power up the lock, wait and listen for three beeps, then hold down the outside lever.
After erasing all lock programming, both lock models wait for a proximity card to be presented. Therefore, present a proximity card (to place the lock into "learn mode"), then immediately present the first two Function Cards (card #1 for initiating PC communications, card #2 for initiating AL-DTM communications). After cards #1 and 2 have been presented and enrolled, wait for the lock to timeout and lock.
Now the PL3000 can be programmed by the PC or the AL-DTM-III. Currently, the PL3500 can only be programmed by the AL-DTM-III; the PL3500 is not supported by DL-Windows at this time.
