just press the Hard Code button on the CPU board again and repeat the procedure described
above.
Below we show a step by step summary.
o Power up unit; confirm 5 second yellow LED indication (after any key is pressed).
o Press the “HARD” button on the CPU board for one second.
o Confirm slow flashing yellow LED.
o Within 30 seconds of pressing Hard Code button, enter a 2-7 digit code.
o End your entry with “E” key or wait 5 seconds.
o Note two (2) red LED flashes for confirmation.
o Re-enter code (door should open).
6.1.1. “Masterkey” Use of the Hard Code
The primary use for the Hard Code is to allow simple single code “fixed” operation as is
described in Section 6.1. The Hard Code can only be set or changed from the “HARD”
button in the CPU board. It is deliberately kept separate from all programming functions.
Another use for it, however, is as a “masterkey” code. For example, consider a facility
with multiple SABL’s under the control of different departments. Each department might
want to employ different Program and User codes to restrict cross access but a common
Hard Code could be established for all of the units so that security management personnel
could enjoy universal access. This Hard Code will never be lost from keypad operations
(the CPU board has to be accessed).
6.2. Keypad Changeable Programming
In this application, two (or more) codes are programmed into the SABL. The first, called the
Program Code acts as a password which allows changing the User codes. It is the User
codes which are employed regularly to gain access. Knowledge of the Program Code should
be restricted to security management as its only use is to change the User codes or different
programming options. With this method of operation, higher security is obtained because the
end user can change the User codes regularly or at any time they feel it has been
compromised.
With battery power applied to the unit, note that the yellow LED comes on for 5 seconds
after any key is pressed. This signals that all code memories are empty (you don’t want
any unknown codes present). If the yellow LED does not come on, see Section 6.5 for the
procedure to clear any (and all) existing codes.
Once you have confirmed the 5 second yellow light indication on the keypad, remove the
battery access cover (if it is not already removed) and press the button marked “PRGM” on
the CPU board for about one second. Returning to the keypad, note the yellow LED flashing
rapidly (about three times a second). This indicates “program mode”. Within 30 seconds,
enter the prefix 0-0 and then your Program Code from five to seven digits (you cannot
use the “E” key but repeating digits are OK). If you wait longer than 30 seconds to start your
code entry, the “programming window” will automatically terminate, so press the “PRGM”
button again. Do not pause while you’re entering all these digits as any time there is more
than a five second gap between keys being pressed, the unit will stop reading the
sequence. Note that a successful button press is echoed by a beep and a flash of the green
LED. When you have completed entering your Program Code, hit the “E” key and you should
see the red LED display two (2) pulses within a second. If you don’t hit the “E” key, your
code will be accepted anyway but it will take five seconds for the two red flashes to come. If
you have selected a seven digit code, the two red flashes will occur immediately as the digit
limit has been reached. The two pulses signal that your code has been accepted. If you get
a single one second long red pulse, your code has not been accepted. Pressing fewer
than 5 keys, for example, would be would be interpreted as a disallowed Program Code.
You’ll note that after the two confirming red flashes are seen, the unit automatically returns
to program mode (rapid yellow flash). You could exit program mode by either hitting the “E”
key or waiting 30 seconds, but you now want to program your User codes. Immediately
enter the prefix 0-1 and then your user code from two to seven digits. When you see
the two confirming red flashes, exit program mode by hitting the “E” key or waiting 30
seconds. If you get the single “error” pulse, note that the unit will automatically return to
