PIN Management
Changing the Admin PIN
This section provides information about managing your PIN in the Admin Mode and
User Mode.
You can change the Admin PIN by doing the following:
1. Enter Admin Mode (UNLOCK + 0
for five seconds. Enter Admin PIN and press
UNLOCK).
2. Press and hold UNLOCK + 9 until the LED turns to Solid BLUE and Blinking
GREEN .
3. Enter the new PIN and press UNLOCK (The PIN must be a minimum of 7 digits
and a maximum of 16 digits). The LED flashes
GREEN three times, then returns
to Solid BLUE and Blinking GREEN .
4. Re-enter the new Admin PIN and press UNLOCK. The LED stays solid GREEN
for two seconds and then solid BLUE indicating that the Admin PIN has been
changed successfully.
Note: If the LED flashes
RED three times, this indicates that the PIN is
less than 7 digits or more than 16 digits. Enter a PIN that contains 7 – 16
digits after the LED flashes
BLUE intermittently.
1.
If the LED flashes
RED intermittently and then BLUE intermittently,
go back to step 3. This is due to one of the following conditions:
• You waited longer than ten seconds before entering a PIN.
• The new PIN was entered incorrectly.
2. If no activity is detected within two minutes in the Admin Mode, the
Aegis Padlock DT will return to the Standby Mode.
