Master Code

About the Master Code

Enabling and Setting the Master Code

Using a Master Code is an optional, added-security measure. It is not enabled by default. A Master Code

is used to add and delete user codes, but it cannot unlock the door (unless the same code is programmed

as a user code, though this is not recommended). The Master Code must be 4-8 digits.

Programming timeout: If no button is pressed for ve seconds, the system will time out

(indicated by three beeps and a red ashing keypad), and you will need to restart the procedure.

1. Press and HOLD the Program button until the keypad ashes green

(about 5 seconds.)

2. Enter new Master Code.

3. Press Lock button once.

4. Re-enter Master Code.

5. Press Lock button once.

If programming is successful, the keypad will flash green once with

one beep.

If programming is unsuccessful, the keypad will ash red three times

with three beeps. Make sure the Master Code has not already been

programmed. Attempt the procedure again, making sure to enter the

same new Master Code in step 2 and 4.

6. Make sure switch #3 is on, and press the Program button once. If

you hear three beeps and see the keypad ash green three times, the

Master Code is enabled.

between 4 and 8 digits during your next attempt. Make sure the lock has

room for an additional code. If all user codes are lled, delete a code to make

room for this one. Make sure to enter a valid Master Code in step 2.

6. While the door is open, test the user code to make sure it unlocks

the door.

The procedure for adding user codes is different when the Master Code is enabled. For instuctions on

how to add user codes when the Master Code is disabled, see the Installation and User Guide that came

with your lock.

Troubleshooting: Installation

The interior mounting screws are dicult to tighten.

The interior and exterior assembly won’t mount parallel to the door edge.

The interior assembly does not ﬁt on the mounting plate.

If you encounter any of the problems above, the deadbolt latch may be

installed upside down. Remove the interior assembly, mounting plate,

and exterior assembly from the door, and look at the latch inside the

door hole.

If the word “UP” is upside down and at the bottom of the latch, the latch

is installed incorrectly.

Reinstall the latch, making sure the word “UP” faces upward.

Troubleshooting: Door Jamming and Door Handing

The lock jams and the turnpiece does not rotate smoothly.

The lock beeps, the keypad ﬂashes red, and the door cannot lock.

The door handing process was not executed

during installation.

Perform the door handing process in the Installation Guide.

The hole in the door is misaligned.

Disassemble the lock, and reinstall it without the adapter ring on the

exterior side of the door.

The wrong deadbolt latch is installed.

SmartCode deadbolts require a tapered latch bolt for ease of operation.

If the latch being used is from an older lock, it will likely not have a

tapered latch bolt. Remove the lock from the door, including the old

latch. Replace with the new tapered latch that came with the lock and

reinstall the lock.

The deadbolt latch and strike are misaligned,

causing the latch to bind.

Adjust the tab of the lower strike (for your knob or lever) to help align the

upper latch and strike so that the latch bolt enters the strike when the

door is locked.

The lower latch and lower strike (for your knob

or lever) are misaligned, putting too much

load on the deadbolt latch.

As a test, rotate the turnpiece on the deadbolt so the latch is retracted

(unlocked), and close the door. If you have to push, pull or lift the door to

get it to close, adjust the position of the lower strike.

The hole in the door frame for the latch bolt is

not drilled deep enough.

Make sure the hole in the door frame is drilled at least 1” (25 mm) deep.

The mounting plate is placing tension on the

torque blade.

Attempt to lock and unlock the door with the key. If it is unable to rotate,

remove the interior assembly from the mounting plate. Test the key

again. If it is still unable to rotate, loosen the screws on the mounting

plate and reposition the plate so there is no tension on the cylinder

torque blade. Make sure the latch bolt can operate smoothly with the key

and reinstall the interior assembly.

The clutch is disengaged.

Remove the battery pack. Remove the interior assembly from the

door. Verify that the lock can be operated smoothly with the key while

the interior is removed. Attempt to rotate the turnpiece on the interior

assembly to the vertical position. If it cannot rotate to the vertical position,

the clutch has become disengaged.

Place the battery cover onto the interior assembly, making sure to align

the turnpiece with the shaft. Rotate the turnpiece 180° clockwise (you

will need to use force when rotating the turnpiece, and you will hear it

click). This will re-engage the clutch.

180°

Reinstall the interior assembly on the door, and reinstall the battery

pack.

CThe Status LED is solid red after the door handing process.

The lock interior is not mounted perpendicular

to the ground.

Remount lock interior assembly as illustrated in the Installation Guide.

The hole in the door is misaligned.

Disassemble the lock, and reinstall it without the adapter ring on the

exterior side of the door.

The battery level is too low.

Use a fresh set of batteries, and perform the door handing process again.

The latch and strike are misaligned, causing

the latch to bind.

If you have not already done so, perform the door handing process while

the door is open. If it is successful only when the door is open, the latch

and strike are not aligned as they should be. Ensure door preparation is

in accordance with the door drilling instructions, available online.
