Access and Function Codes

The PhoneLink can be programmed with up to 500 (4-digit) ACCESS codes. However, there are two different types of
codes, Access Codes and Function Codes. Although the number of Access Codes may vary, the number of Function
Codes is always 4.

FUNCTION CODES

“MASTER CODE”

The MASTER CODE is a programmable four-digit code used for gaining access
to the program mode. It does not activate the control relays. The factory default
MASTER code is 1 2 5 1. It is suggested that you change the default 1 2 5 1 to one
of your choice. It is the “password” to the unit. Keep the new MASTER code in a
safe place.

“LATCH CODE”

The LATCH CODE is a programmable four-digit code used to toggle relay A. This
code will be used to hold open a device connected to Relay A such as a gate
or door.

“SLEEP CODE”

The SLEEP CODE is a programmable four-digit code which when entered, will
disable all codes. When the “SLEEP CODE” is entered again the unit will be
enabled. An override code is provided.

“ONE SHOT CODE”

The ONE SHOT CODE is a programmable four-digit code that disables itself after
one use. The user can enable this code for reuse using the keypad or telephone.

Good Tones and Error Tones

The PhoneLink unit will sound a tone each time a key is pressed. The “ * “ key serves as the clear key and a double
tone will be heard any time the “ * “ key is pressed.
A “GOOD TONE” is an oscillating high tone. An “ERROR TONE” is a single low tone. Both are very distinguishable.

The Red and Yellow LED’S

•.Two colored LED’s are in the face of the unit. The red LED illuminates during the duration of the relay(s)

activation period. The yellow LED illuminates while the unit is in the program mode.

During memory erasure or setup the LED’s will flash.

Resetting the Unit

Your unit provides two very distinct types of resets, a Master Reset, and a Unit Reset. It is important to understand when
to use each.

• A MASTER Reset should be done in the event that you lose or forget your MASTER code or, if the unit is in the

Latch or Sleep mode and the Latch or Sleep code is lost or forgotten. When a Unit Reset is performed, the

MASTER code is reset to the factory default -- 1 2 5 1. This reset will not affect codes and other unit

programming. It simply resets the MASTER code to 1 2 5 1.

• A Unit Reset is provided should it ever become necessary to completely reset the PhoneLink back to the initial

factory defaults. Be careful … Unit RESET will DELETE ALL ACCESS & FUNCTION CODES and the MASTER code

will be set back to 1 2 5 1. All coding and programming is also lost when a Unit Reset is completed.
