4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Admin and User Codes

The lock supports up to 3 Admin Codes and 20 User Codes. Admin codes have full control over lock settings, while user codes are for daily access.

4.1.1 Setting Admin Codes

Follow the instructions provided in the separate programming guide (usually included with the product) to set up your Admin Codes. Admin codes are typically 4 to 8 digits long.

Figure 4.1: This image illustrates the sequence for setting an Administrator Password, typically involving pressing a button, entering the Admin Code, and re-entering it for confirmation.

4.1.2 Setting User Codes

Admin users can set up to 20 unique User Codes, each 4 to 8 digits long, for family members, guests, or staff. Refer to the programming guide for detailed steps.

Figure 4.2: This image demonstrates the process for setting a User Password, which involves an Admin Code followed by the new User Code and re-entry for verification.

4.2 Unlocking the Door

4.2.1 Using a Passcode

1. Enter your 4-8 digit passcode on the keypad.
2. Press the "✓" button.
3. The lock will unlock.

4.2.2 Anti-Peeping Code

To prevent others from observing your code, you can enter random digits before or after your actual passcode. For example, if your code is 1234, you can enter 567812349012. The lock will still recognize the correct sequence within the longer entry.

Figure 4.3: This image illustrates the anti-peeping code functionality, where random digits can be entered before or after the correct passcode to obscure it from onlookers.

4.2.3 Using Backup Keys

In case of battery depletion or forgotten codes, use the provided backup keys to manually unlock the door. Insert the key into the keyhole and turn to unlock.

• Passage Mode: The door remains unlocked, allowing free entry and exit without a code. Ideal for high-traffic periods.
• Privacy Mode: The lock can only be unlocked by an Admin Code from the outside. This mode enhances privacy for occupants.
• Silent Mode: Disables all sound prompts from the lock. Activate by pressing "3" + "✓" on the keypad.
