Codes - The Basics

• The KL1500 has four code levels available:
i) Master Code
ii) Sub-Master Code
iii) User Code
iv) Technician Code

• The KL1500 is supplied with two factory set codes:
Master Code: 11 22 33 44
User Code: 12 34

• Before fitting, change the Master Code and User Code.

• All Master Codes and Sub-Master Codes are 8 digits long.

• All User Codes are 4 digits long.

• Up to 20 individual User Codes can be entered into the lock at the same time. Each User Code is entered together with specific ID (Identification Number) from 01-20.

• All Technician Codes are 6 digits long.

• The lock ‘open’ time is set at 4 seconds.

Functions

Before programming, select the most appropriate function for the application.

A) Private Use
Important Note: This is the default function pre-programmed in new locks.
This is the most common function and is used where the same code will be repeatedly used.

B) Public Use
The user enters their own personal code twice, the second time to confirm the correct code. This locks the lock. To open the same code is entered once again and then will be erased. The lock will remain open until a new code is entered. This function is used for short term, multi occupancy applications eg: a locker in a leisure centre or Spa.

Operating Instructions

The KL1500 has a 12 button keypad. The # button is used as a prefix when programming for all code levels. The KL1500 standard unit is installed in the vertical (up) position with the lever at the bottom. However, the lock may be installed in any of 4 positions; up, down, horizontal (left or right). Should the lock need to be changed from one position to another please see Installation Instructions.

• Release the 0 button and within three seconds press the 0 button 3 times.
• Blue LED will flash twice and the lock will revert back to last active mode – Public Use or Private Use 
Function and the Master Code will now be the factory default e.g. 11223344.
Note: All previously programmed codes and settings will be RETAINED.
• Replace second battery.

Factory Code Reset

Reset lock to factory supplied settings:
• Remove both batteries.
• Press and hold the 1 button and replace one battery.
• The blue LED will flash twice and beep twice.
• Release the 1 button and within 3 seconds press the * button 3 times.
• The blue LED will flash and beep twice to confirm factory reset.
• Refit second battery.
Note: Lock will revert to Master Code of 11223344 and User Code 1234.
All previously entered settings and codes will have been ERASED.

Penalty TIme
• Entering three incorrect codes will cause the lock to shut down for 10 seconds.

Battery Power
• The KL1500 should provide in excess of 50,000 openings of 4 seconds each from 2 x CR2450 3.0 V coin cell batteries.

Low Battery

• When battery power is low the Red LED will flash 3 times before the Blue LED light accepting the code. Fit new batteries as soon as this happens.
Note: To retain Program 15 Time Setting, one battery must be changed at a time.

Battery Override
Should the batteries fail the lock can be opened using the code and an external PP3 battery as the power source as follows:

The procedure is as follows:

• Place the +positive contact of the battery against the contact point surrounding the Red LED and the –negative contact point of the battery against the contact point of the Blue LED.

• Enter Master Code.

• Lock will open.

• Remove the lock and replace batteries.

• Refit lock.
