THE IDLE MODE
When the desired connections are complete and power is supplied to the unit, the unit will be in the IDLE MODE. The
IDLE MODE is the normal mode of operation, meaning the unit is ready to accept input from the keypad. When in
the IDLE MODE, you have approximately 4 seconds between key presses. If this time is exceeded, you will receive an
ERROR TONE. Any time you hear an ERROR TONE, simply begin whatever operation you were attempting over again.
ACCESS CODES AND FUNCTION CODES
There are two types of codes you need to keep in mind when using the Advantage DK unit.• Access Codes, quite
simply, are the numbers that are programmed into the unit and assigned to the users who need to access the gate
or door. The Access Codes are the “everyday” use codes. Up to 1000 Access Codes can be programmed into the
unit. • Function Codes, on the other hand, are special modes that only the Master User or Administrator can enter to
control how the DK unit is programmed and operates. There are 3 specialized Function Codes which are shown on
the following Chart.
MASTER CODE
The Master Code is a four-digit Function Code used to
program Access Codes into the DK unit. The factory
default master code is 1 2 5 1.The Owner/Administrator
enters the Master Code to program the Access Codes
others will use to gain entry to the area controlled by
the unit. It is recommended that the Master Code be
re-programmed to a four-digit code of your choice.
Remember to make a note of the new Master Code. It
is the passwo
LATCH CODE
The Latch Code is a programmable four digit Function
Code used to toggle relay A. The Latch Code is used
to hold a gate or door open. For example, the home
owner or business administrator wants leave the gate
open for a period of time; say for a few hours during
a party or special function. While the Latch Code is
entered, the gate or door is open. Re-enter the Latch
Code to return the unit to normal operation (to close
and lock the gate or doorway.)
SLEEP CODE
The Sleep Code is a programmable four digit Function
Code which, when entered, disables all codes. No one
can use any of the Access Codes while the unit is in the
SLEEP mode. An example is if the user wants to deny all
access to a gated area for a period of time, he or she
enters the SLEEP CODE which essentially locks the unit.
Re-enter the Sleep Code to return the unit to normal
operation. An override code is provided.
