AEI DK-2891A, User Manual

Auto Entry Mode requires no pressing of the # key after code entry for code checking. 
In the Auto Entry Mode, the 

User Codes MUST be set in the same digit length of the 

Master Code 

(For example, if the Master Code is 5 digits, then all User Codes must be in 5 

digits as well. All other User Codes not in 5 digits become invalid). When the number of digits 

reaches, the system will check the User Code automatically. Good for high traffic access control.

They can be programmed as 

“One Time Codes”

 or 

“Codes with Time Limit”

will be cleared automatically after use if they are one time codes, or, when the allowed time 

expires.

Clear all the Visitor Codes in Location 40. Please see the Programming example 

below for the details.

The Visitor Codes can be 4-8 digits for Manual Mode code entry.
The Visitor Codes MUST be in the same digit length with the Master Code for Auto Mode code 

entry.
When a new Visitor Code is put in the same Code box, the old code is replaced.

Manual Entry Mode always requires the # key following the User Code for code checking. 

The User Codes can be 

4-8 digits arbitrary

 and they are 

NOT

 required to be in the same 

digit length of the Master Code. Manual Entry increases the level of security in code trial by 

the unauthorized people.
