GARDALL SAFES - HOW TO OPERATE

Operating an electronic safe lock is as simple as entering 6 digits on the keypad. Also the combination can be quickly and easily changed by you. Please always leave the door open while changing your safe lock combination. THE DOWNSIDE TO ELECTRONIC LOCKS? Higher failure rates. while generally quite dependable, the failure rate of electronic locks is higher than mechanical locks. While we were unable to find any actuarial tables with data on e-lock failure rates, we can say that based on our experience, the Amsec ESL-10/ESL-20 electronic safe locks are the most dependable electronic safe locks we have seen. we have seen keypad failures on these locks(keypads can be easily changed without access to the safe)the failure rate of the ESL locks is virtually nil!. Sargent and greenleaf is another lock manufacturer. their newer titan locks are miles above their older 6120's in terms of dependability.  

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

KABA MAS 52 & 52T - OPERATING INSTRUCTION

SUPER MASTER CONTROL

The Super Master Combination is a six-digit combination used to reset the lock to the factory default combination (50 25 50) in the event the user combination(s) are lost. 

LOCK MODES

A maximum of two users can exist in a lock. A lock can operate in either Single Mode or Dual Custody Mode.

Note: For a UL listed installation, only one user can be activated.

• Single Mode

Single Mode defaults to having only a Manager User (User 1) in the lock. A second user (User 2) can then be added by the Manager User (User 1). (See section on Manager User Operations.) In Single Mode only one valid user combination is required to open the lock - the Manager User (User 1) combination or the User 2 combination.

Note: Default lock status from the factory is Single Mode with an opening combination of “502550” for the Manager User (User 1).

• Dual Custody Mode

Dual Custody Mode defaults to two users in the lock - User 1 and User 2. Two user combinations are required to open the lock - the User 1 combination and the User 2 combination. Note: Manager User Operations are not available in Dual Custody Mode.

LOCK OPERATING CONVENTIONS

• The power source for the Auditcon 2 Lock Series is PowerStarTM Technology. With this technology an internal generator is used to create all necessary power. Important Note: The lock must be manually powered before each operation by briskly turning the dial back and forth.
• To clear a combination or keystroke, press the * key.
• If the bolt is not retracted within 4-6 seconds after a valid opening combination is accepted, the lock will “relock”.
• Note the following operational differences based on the type of bolt you have installed:
• Dead Bolt (Manual Locking) Technology: There is a “Home” position for the dial on the lock that is directly related to the manual retraction or extension of the bolt. In the “HOME” position, the lip of the dial will cover the red “open lock” indicator. The dial must be positioned here on a lock “Open’’ operation before you can successfully open the lock. The dial must be turned to the right (CW) to retract the bolt and unlock the lock. The dial must be turned to the left (CCW) to extend the bolt and lock the lock. The lock may not open if more than a 5 lb. force is applied to the end or side of the bolt.
• Slide Bolt (Auto Locking) Technology: Once a combination has been entered and accepted, the lock bolt movement works in conjunction with the bolt works of the container. When the bolt works are disengaged to open the container, the lock bolt will slide into the “unlocked” or retracted position. Once the bolt works are extended to the locked position, the lock bolt automatically slides into the “locked” position. The lock will not open if force is applied to the end or side of the bolt.

LOCK RESPONSES

• The lock is “powered” when simultaneous green and red flashes display with a beep.
• Each keystroke generates a green flash with a beep.
• The completion of a step within an operation is indicated by a green flash with a beep.
• The successful completion of an operation is indicated by simultaneous green and red flashes.
• If a valid combination or combinations are entered to open the lock, the lock will respond as follows to indicate that the lock is ready to open:

Dead Bolt - 1 slow green flash

Slide Bolt - Continuous green flashes ... for approx. 5 seconds

• An error is indicated by three red flashes with beeps.

• If the Battery Assist option is included on your lock and a 9 Volt Alkaline has been installed for Battery Assist, the LEDs will continually flash throughout the duration of a Time Delay or Open Window period. The Battery Assist feature also provides additional power for lengthy lock operations. There is not a battery low indicator for Battery Assist. If the feature is not functioning properly, check the battery.
