3.1 LED & Audible Indicators

There are 2 LED indicators on the front face of the lock. The leftmost LED may illuminate RED, GREEN, or YELLOW. The right LED will only illuminate BLUE.

From Normal Operational (Standby) Mode,

Both LEDs OFF = Standby Mode, or Keypad Lockout

Momentary GREEN = After each key press, or Access Granted

Momentary RED = Error

From Programming Mode,

Flashing YELLOW = In Programming Mode

Flashing BLUE = Bluetooth Enabled

= While performing any Function, an intermediate step has been accepted GRN LED+Beep (Simultaneous)

Both LEDs OFF = While performing any Function, waiting for user input

GRN LED+Beep (x2) = Function Successfully Completed

GRN LED+Beep, RED LED+Beep, GRN LED+Beep = Entering Program Mode

YEL LED+Beep, Pause, GRN LED+Beep (x3) = Exiting Program Mode

Alternating RED/GRN LED, then 3 Beeps = On Lock Power Up

3.2 Testing the Lock Operation

To test lock operation before initialization, enter *741 . This temporary code will unlock the E75 verifying proper hardware installation. NOTE: The lock will unlock, but the Green LED will not light.

Once a lock initialization has been performed, this code is no longer valid until a factory reset is performed. A factory reset will erase all the users, lock settings, and return the E75 back into the uninitialized, factory default condition.

3.3 Lock Initialization

When the lock is first installed or after a factory reset has been performed, the E75 must be initialized with a 4-digit lock ID before you will be allowed to enter programming mode. This step is required before using the E7 Management Software.

To Initialize the Lock: Press #9*123456#4-digit Lock ID#

Example: Press #9* 123456# 0001#

The above example enters a Lock ID of '0001'. If multiple locks are used, it is mandatory that each lock have its own Unique Lock ID (0012, 0103, etc.).

3.4 Entering and Exiting Programming Mode

The E7 Management Software utilizes Bluetooth communications to transfer data to & from a lock. You must first put the lock into Programming Mode to enable Bluetooth. NOTE: While in Programming Mode, the leftmost LED will flash yellow (once/sec). Twenty seconds of inactivity will automatically exit you from programming mode and return you to operational (standby) mode.

To Enter Programming Mode: Press #9# User No# User PIN Code #

Example: Press #9# 01# 123456#

User 01 with default PIN Code 123456 is the Administrator and has full programming rights. It is recommended that this PIN Code be changed, as instructed in 3.6. NOTE : The User must be the Administrator or must be assigned to Group 2 to have full programming rights.

To Exit Programming Mode: Press **#

Example: Press **#

3.5 Enabling Bluetooth Communications Mode (Function 80)

You must enable Bluetooth Communications using the lock keypad before data can be transmitted to & from the lock.

NOTE : You must first be in Programming Mode to enable Bluetooth (Section 3.4). The lock will automatically exit Bluetooth Mode after 2 minutes of upload/download inactivity.

To Enable Bluetooth Mode: Press 80#

Bluetooth communication is now enabled. The rightmost LED will flash BLUE (once/sec).

To Disable Bluetooth Mode: Press *

Bluetooth communication is now disabled. The left LED will flash YEL to indicate the lock is in Programming Mode.

3.6 Changing the Administrator PIN Code

User 01 is the Administrator with full programming rights. The default PIN Code is '123456'. Changing the Administrator's PIN code must be done manually at the keypad.

NOTE: The Administrator's PIN code must be 6 digits in length.

To Change the Administrator PIN Code: Press 03# 01# New PIN Code# New Pin Code# Example: Press 03# 01# 987654# 987654#

You have just changed the Administrator Pin Code to '987654'.
