Overview

The Schlage AD-400 is an open architecture Wireless Access Point Module (WAPM) designed to interface with third-party panels through a PIM400.

The Schlage AD-402 is a certified Wireless Access Point Module (WAPM).

  • The AD-400/AD-402 communicates with the PIM400 via RF (radio frequency).
  • The AD-400/AD-402 may be battery powered or connected to external power using a UL294 or ULCS318/ULCS319 listed power supply. See Batteries on page 12 or External power supply on page 13 for more information.
  • The outside lever is normally locked.
  • The inside lever always allows egress.
  • The AD-400/AD-402 normally operates in on-line mode. Information contained in the user credential is passed to an access control panel (ACP), which controls lock functions. The ACP maintains the audit trail.

Additional AD-400 Reader options: Mag + Keypad, Multi-Tech + Keypad.

Note: Proximity card (PR, PRK) ONLY and Smart card (SM, SMK) ONLY reader have been discontinued and replaced by the Multi-Tech (MT, MTK) readers that provide all the same funcionality as the original Proximity and Smart card readers in a single credential reader.

The AD-402 reader is a FIPS-201-2 certified Multi-Tech + Keypad (FM2) reader.

Getting started

Follow these steps when setting up a new lock.

  • 1. Install the lock. See the installation guide that came with the lock or visit www.allegion.com/us for more information.
  • 2. Make sure the batteries are installed properly. See Batteries on page 12 for more information.
  • 3. Configure the Master Construction Credential (where applicable). See Construction access mode on page 6 for more information. The lock should remain in Construction Access Mode until you are ready to set up the rest of the wireless access system with connection to the PIM400 and the access control panel (ACP).
  • 4. Link the lock to the PIM400. See Link to a PIM400 on page 8 for more information.
  • 5. Test the lock for proper mechanical and electronic operation. See Test lock operation on page 9 for more information.
  • 6. Consult the SUS User Guide for information about configuring the lock and PIM400.
  • 7. Familiarize yourself with the information contained in this user guide.

Save this user guide for future reference.

Schlage Utility Software (SUS)

The SUS is used to configure locks and the PIM400.

L When in a low battery condition the lock may operate but not have sufficient power to communicate with the SUS. When intitiating SUS communication, the Schlage button will light solid red for one second to indicate power is not sufficient. If this should occur, change the batteries immediately. See Batteries on page 12.

The SUS is used for programming lock characteristics and setup only. Access rights for the AD-400/AD-402 are set by the access control panel, not by the SUS.

For more information about the SUS, see AD-Series Locks in the SUS User Guide.

Optional inside push button (IPB)

  • The inside push button (IPB) state is communicated to the access control panel by the PIM400-485. The manner in which the network access control software utilizes this communication is configured at the host. The IPB may be used to communicate a lock/ unlock request or be completely ignored by the network software.
  • AD-400 IPB activity will only be reported to control systems connected to a PIM400-485 with a RS-485 connection.
  • The IPB may be configured by the ACP or SUS to take direct action on the lock state in case communication from the control system to the AD-400 fails and the lock remains powered.

User management

User management is controlled by the access control system. If the access control panel has not yet been connected, use Construction Access Mode to add and delete users.

L See Construction access mode on page 6 for more information.

For compliance with the UL Standards UL294 and ULCS319, the AD-400/AD-402 must be connected to an access control panel (ACP) that is UL listed for UL294 for UL installations and ULCS319 for cUL installations.

Construction access mode

Construction access mode is used to allow access before the lock has been programmed, and for testing purposes.

  • Enabled by default.
  • The lock will remain in construction access mode until the mode is cancelled as described below.
  • No audits are captured while lock is in construction access mode.
  • Use the same master construction credential for all the locks in the facility.
  • If you present the first card to a new lock to create the master construction credential and the card is not accepted, the lock has either been programmed or already has a master construction credential.
  • If the master construction credential cannot be located, or to put the lock back into construction access mode, reset the lock to factory settings (see page 10 for details).

Locks with keypads – Construction access mode

In the factory default state, locks with keypads have a default PIN of 13579 and "#", which can be used for installation, testing and construction access. To test, enter default PIN. The Schlage button will blink and the lock will unlock.

The default PIN, 13579 and "#" is automatically deleted when a construction access user credential is added to the lock, or a new programming credential is created, or the lock is programmed with the SUS.

Locks with card readers – Create a master construction credential

The master construction credential is used to program construction access mode credentials.

To create a master construction credential:

  • 1. Press and hold the Schlage button while presenting a credential.
  • 2. The Schlage button will blink green on the left and right as confirmation.
  • 3. Use this card to add construction access mode user credentials.
  • L The master construction credential will not grant access. It is used only to add additional credentials.

Cancel construction access mode

Do one of the following:

  • Program the lock with the SUS. See the SUS user guide for more information.
  • Reset the lock to factory settings. See Reset to factory default settings on page 10 for more information.

When construction mode is cancelled, the master construction credential and all other credentials added using the master construction credential will no longer function.

Link to a PIM400

  • L Only one AD-400/AD-402 can be linked at one time. Ensure that no other PIM400 units are in link mode during this process.
    • 1. Make sure the batteries are installed in the AD-400/ AD-402. See Batteries on page 12 for more information.
  • 2. Make sure the PIM400 is in link mode. For PIM400-TD2: Hold down one of the LINK buttons. (LINK button 1 or 2 will assign the lock door number). For PIM400-485: Use SUS to put the PIM400-485 into LINK mode with the door number tab and assign the lock door number. See the SUS User Guide for more information.
  • 3. Open the AD-400/AD-402 door.
  • 4. Create a request-to-exit condition by holding down the inside lever or crash bar.

TIP

During linking, the Schlage button will blink red and green. Green blinks indicate successful packets and red blinks indicate unsuccessful packets. If you get several red blinks, the lock and PIM400 may still link, but you may experience intermittent communication in the future. You should move the PIM400 closer to the lock, select another RF channel or add another PIM400.

  • L If using a crash bar, Request to Exit (RTX) must be installed. If RTX is not installed, temporarily short the RTX input on the lock main PCB during this procedure.
  • 5. While holding down the lever or crash bar, present a card to the prox or mag card reader. For a keypad reader, press the "#" key.
  • 6. Continue to hold down the lever or crash bar until the AD-400/AD-402 Schlage button starts to blink green, indicating that the link process has begun (approximately 8 seconds).
  • 7. Release the inside lever or crash bar.
  • 8. The Schlage button will blink green, and the beeper will beep.
  • L The number of green blinks and beeps indicates the frequency channel number on which the lock is linked to the PIM400 (example: 3 blinks and beeps = channel 3).
    • 9. If the link fails, the Schlage button will blink red three (3) times and five (5) short beeps will sound. The PIM400 will remain in link mode. Carefully repeat steps 1-8 above. If repeated LINK attempts fail, change the frequency channel of the PIM400 and/or move the PIM400, then repeat steps 3-7.
    • 10. Test the lock for normal operation. See Test lock operation on page 9 for more information.

Re-linking is required anytime the AD-400/AD-402 lock or the PIM400 is moved or replaced, Dynamic Channel Switching is activated, deactivated, or the frequency channel is manually changed.To re-link, repeat the procedure above. The lock's link to the PIM400 is retained in the event of power loss.

  • 1. For locks with a keypad, press any number key. The lock should beep.
  • 2. Press the Schlage button. The keypad should light blue for a few seconds.
  • 3. For locks with a card reader, present a credential to the reader. The lock will beep and the Schlage button will blink red one time. When the lock is in factory default mode, no credentials are accepted and the lock will respond with one red blink indicating the lock is not linked with the PIM400.
  • 4. Locks with keypads, with or without additional credentials, have a default PIN of 13579 and " # ". To test, enter the default PIN. The Schlage button will blink and the lock will unlock.

Test the AD-400/AD-402 in construction access mode

  • 1. When the master construction credential is presented, the AD-400/AD-402 will beep and the Schlage button will light green for 20 seconds awaiting the presentation of another credential to be granted construction user access.
  • 2. When a valid construction access user credential is presented, the lock will unlock for the re-latch delay period (default three seconds), and the Schlage button will blink green. When the lock re-locks after the re-latch delay period, the Schlage button will blink red.
  • 3. If an invalid construction access user credential is presented, the lock will beep and the Schlage button will blink red one time. See Construction access mode on page 6 for more information.

NOTE: Construction access mode is cancelled when the lock is either linked to a PIM400, or reset to factory defaults. When construction access mode is cancelled, the master construction credential and all other credentials added using the master construction credential will no longer function.

Test with the AD-400/AD-402 linked to the PIM400 and Access Control Panel

Once the AD-400/AD-402 is linked to the PIM400, the SUS will indicate a successful link. The SUS will display AD-400/AD-402 operations and communication status with the PIM400.

  • 1. In the SUS "demo/diagnostics" menu display for the PIM400, choose "Select door" and set a door number for the lock being tested. The SUS will display operation and status for link, reader data, motor, tamper, battery, request-to-enter, request-to-exit and door position switch.
  • L If the SUS demo/diagnostics "UNLOCK ON READ" box is checked, all credentials will unlock the AD-400/AD-402 during demo/diagnostics check.
    • 2. Present a valid credential to the AD-400/AD-402. The Schlage button will blink green, a beep will sound and the door will unlock for the preset lock delay period. The lock will re-lock after the lock delay period and the Schlage button will then blink red.
    • 3. If an invalid credential is presented, the Schlage button will blink red, a beep will sound and the door will not unlock. Credential data for all credentials is reported to the PIM400 and displayed at the ACP.

Reset to factory default settings

L All information in the lock will be deleted and reset to factory defaults!

Level 1 factory default reset

  • L Level 1 factory default reset will delete configurations and settings in the main controller in the lock.

    • 3. Release the Schlage button.
    • 4. Press and release the inside push button (IPB) three (3) times within 10 seconds. One beep will sound and one red blink will occur with each press.
    • 5. The Schlage button and IPB will both light green for one second and a one-second beep will sound to confirm that the lock has been reset.
  • L If IPB is not pressed 3 times within 10 seconds, two beeps with two red blinks indicate timeout.
  • 6. Replace the top inside cover.

Level 2 factory default reset

  • L Level 2 factory default reset will delete all configurations and settings in the lock and the reader.
  • L Reader configurations that will reset to factory default include: keypad format, magstripe reader track, beeper on/off, and contactless card.
  • L Days in use counter and lock type configurations will not reset.

To complete Level 2 factory default reset, repeat steps 2 through 5 above within 10 seconds of the confirmation signals of Level 1 factory default reset . If more than 10 seconds pass after the confirmation signals of Level 1 reset, then Level 1 reset will be repeated.

Communication properties

Property Description
Heartbeat When the lock is idle, the heartbeat is a brief communication from the lock
to the PIM400.
The heartbeat allows an idle lock to check for messages from the PIM400. By
default, this occurs every 10 minutes, but can be adjusted in the range of
15 seconds to many hours. Short heartbeat intervals are suggested only if
"Time Zones" accuracy of less than 10 minutes is desired.
The value indicates the time between the heartbeats. Set the value to a shorter
time (lower number) to achieve more frequent communication while the lock
is idle. Set the value to a longer time (higher number) to achieve less frequent
communication.
Immediate A smaller value will decrease battery life. A larger value will increase battery life.
When the lock is used, there is immediate communication to and from the
PIM400 regardless of the heartbeat interval.
Wake-Up
On Radio
When enabled, this feature causes the lock to respond within seconds to a
centralized command from the access control panel. When disabled, the lock
will respond only during its heartbeat, which could result in a delay.
Test the function of Wake-Up On Radio, both lock and unlock operations, after
all locks are installed. To test, verify that all locks go to the requested state with
no assistance or intervention. If test fails, toggle Dynamic Channel Switching
(DCS) to its opposite state (off to on, or on to off). Then, re-link all locks and
test again.
Cache
Mode
When enabled and communicating with the ACP, the lock keeps a local
database of successful access grants.

The local lock database does not capture audit events. See the SUS User
Guide for more information.

Communication failure

When communication fails between the AD-400/AD-402 and the PIM400, the lock will go into communication failure mode. If the ACP or the PIM400 lose power, the lock can lock, unlock, remain as-is, or allow valid access without communicating to the ACP or the PIM400. This mode can be configured using the SUS. See the SUS user guide for more information.

Mode Description
Fail unsecure Lock unlocks and remains unlocked until communication is restored.
unlocked
Fail secure locked Lock locks and remains locked until communication is restored.
Fail as-is Lock remains in current state until communication is restored.

In addition, the AD-400 has an internal cache, that can be enabled using the SUS, to allow limited access while the lock is offline. If cache mode is enabled, it is not affected by the communication failure mode configuration. See the SUS User Guide for more information.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.

This radio transmitter, 8053B-COMAD400V2, has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated.

Approved antenna list:

The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

  • 1. PCB trace antenna with a 5.7dBi maximum gain
  • 2. p/n: 23520587, Dual Beam Antenna with a 3.5dBi gain (ANT400-REM-HALL)
  • 3. p/n: 23530579, Multi band Directional Panel antenna with 8.5dBi gain (ANT400-REM-I/O+dB)
  • 4. p/n: 23530553, Dual Band Quasi-Omni Panel Antenna with 4.5dBi gain (ANT400-REM-I/O)
  • 5. p/n: 23520561, Multi band Omni Antenna with 2dBi gain (ANT400-REM-CEILING)

Antennas having a gain greater than the antenna type approved in the list are strictly prohibited for use with this device. However, antennas of the same type with a gain equal to or less may be used. Examples of this may include:

  • a directional panel antenna with a gain equal to or less than 8.5 dBi may be used with this module
  • an omni-directional antenna with a gain equal to or less than 2.0 dBi may be used with this module.

To comply with IC RF exposure limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
