Programming the DL2700 Lock
This section details programming the DL2700, including setting the Master Code, Manager Codes, and User Codes. Learn how to add, modify, and disable access codes for enhanced security management.
Master Code, Manager Codes, and User Codes
The Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700 employs a hierarchical code system for access control. At the apex is the Master Code, granting full access to all programming functions and entry. This code is crucial for initial setup and for managing all other access levels. It’s vital to keep this code secure and confidential. Losing the Master Code could severely compromise the lock’s security.
Next in the hierarchy are Manager Codes. These codes provide access to several programming functions, allowing authorized personnel to add, modify, or delete User Codes. However, Manager Codes do not provide the same level of control as the Master Code; they cannot modify the Master Code itself or perform certain administrative tasks. The number of Manager Codes allowed varies depending on the lock’s configuration.
Finally, User Codes provide basic entry access to the lock. These codes are intended for everyday use by authorized individuals. The DL2700 typically supports a large number of User Codes, offering flexibility for managing access for multiple users. Each User Code is independent and can be easily added, modified, or deleted by an authorized personnel using either the Master or Manager Code. Remember to keep all codes confidential to maintain the integrity of your security system.
Adding, Changing, and Disabling Codes
Adding new user codes to your Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700 is straightforward. Begin by entering the Master or Manager code, then follow the lock’s specific programming sequence to enter a new user code. The process typically involves assigning a unique numerical code to the new user, which should be kept confidential. Remember to record all codes for future reference. Adding new codes grants access to specific individuals, enhancing the security and control of your system.
Modifying existing user codes is equally simple. Similar to adding new codes, start by entering the Master or Manager code. Then, select the user code you wish to change, and follow the on-screen prompts to enter the new code. This allows you to update codes if needed, for example, if an employee leaves your organization or changes their personal identification number. Ensure that all changes are documented.
Disabling user codes is a crucial security measure. To disable a specific code, enter the Master or Manager code and follow the instructions to temporarily or permanently deactivate the selected code. This is especially useful for former employees, visitors, or individuals whose access needs to be revoked. You can easily re-enable codes if necessary, providing flexibility in managing user access. Always follow the lock’s instructions for disabling and re-enabling codes. Regularly reviewing and updating codes maintains a robust security system.
