Factory Mode
The factory mode is one of three primary states of the E-Plex Lock.  The main characteristics of this state are:
 

•  The E-Plex Lock opens only when the 8-digit default master combination (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8) is keyed in. 

 

•  The visual indication for ‘access granted’ is green LED flashing once.  A high-pitched tone is also generated while the green LED is on.

 

•  The Master User must change the Master Code to be able to exit the factory mode, and switch to the access mode or pushbutton programming mode.

Access Mode
This mode refers to a lock that is operational for user access, and not in factory or Programming Mode.

Pushbutton Programming Mode
The E-Plex lock enters the Pushbutton Programming Mode when the user enters the master combination or one of the manager combinations, preceded and followed by the 
character ‘#’ (ex: #12345678#). Once the E-Plex Lock is in the Pushbutton Programming Mode, the Master/Manager can enter one or more command sequences. Each command 
sequence ends with a ‘#’ character that acts like an <

enter> character. At the very end of all sequences of programming commands, enter one more # to remove the lock from the 

Pushbutton Programming Mode to return to normal access mode.

What is the recommended sequence of operations?
With the E-Plex Lock in the factory mode.
 

•   Program the Access Code Length (default length is four digits). The access 

code field length can only be changed when the lock is not activated (when 
still in the factory mode).

 

•   Change factory Master to your own Master Code (always eight digits) to 

place lock in access mode.

Put lock in Pushbutton Programming Mode.
 

• Set the Date / Time

 

• Program the Lock ID and Unlock time

 

• Program the Lock for the Duration of Passage Mode (if desired)

 

• Program the Lock for Tamper Time Settings

 

• Program the Lock for Buzzer Volume

 

• Add Access Codes as desired

  a. Put the lock in Programming Mode by pressing # Master Code #
  b.  Use the Summary of Commands Table (Section 16) of this guide to enter the 

three digit command sequence (Command Type + Function Code), followed by #.

  c. Enter the appropriate numbers as required.
  d. Press # to end Programming Mode.
  e.  Once the lock is in programming mode, multiple command  sequences can be 

entered without having to repeat the #mastercode#. However, if there is no activity 

for 15 seconds at the keypad, the lock will automatically exit from programming mode.
