- Passage Mode: The door remains unlocked for continuous access.
- Security Mode: Only administrator codes or physical keys can unlock the door, restricting access for regular user codes.

User Code Management
The lock supports up to 20 user codes. Refer to the detailed programming instructions in your physical manual for adding, changing, or deleting codes. This feature is particularly useful for managing access for family members, tenants, or service providers.
One-Time Codes
For temporary access, such as for deliveries or housekeepers, you can generate one-time codes. These codes expire after a single use, enhancing security.

Passage Mode Toggle
