Alarm Lock DK3000 Programming Manual

							31 
Groups and Scheduled Group 1 Examples  
The following examples detail the more advanced features of the DK series locks.  Although all features and device functions can be programmed 
using the lock keypad, when programming becomes more complex you may find it easier to use DL-Windows software to program your Alarm Lock 
security lock.  For more information, contact your Alarm Lock security professional. 
 
Assign a User to Two Groups 
Create a User 101 (all Users 101-150 are members of Group 2 by default) and include User 101 in Group 3 (as well as the default Group 2). 
1.    Enter Program Mode (if not in already). 
2.    Using Function 2, create User 101 with a User Code of 789:   
Press ; 2 ; 1 0 1 ; 7 8 9 :. 
3.    Using Function 35, make User 101 a member of Group 2 and 3:   
Press ; 3 5 ; 1 0 1 ; 2 3 :. 
4.    Exit Program Mode.   
 
Note:  See step 3 above--although User 101 is by default a member of Group 2, you must include Group 2 when using Function 35 or the 
Group 2 association will be removed. 
 
The example to add Users to Group 2 and Group 3 has been selected due to the fact that Group 1 Activated Functions require that a member 
of Group 1 enter their User Code to activate the Function, and it may become necessary to assign Users to Groups.   
 
 
Group 1 Activated Features:  Functions 88/89, 90/91 and 92/93 
•Function 88 and 89 allow for a window of time to be created where if any Group 1 User Code is entered within the programmed window, 
Passage Mode will be activated (the device physically unlocks, allowing passage for all).  If a Group 1 User does not enter their User Code 
during the specified window, Functions 88/89 remain inactive. 
•Function 90 and 91 allow for a window of time to be created where if any Group 1 User Code is entered within the programmed window, a 
relay will be activated for 2 seconds.  This relay can be used with a burglar alarm control panel that has a key switch disarm option.  See To 
Disarm a Burglary Control Panel on page 29.  If a Group 1 User does not enter their User Code during the specified window, Functions 
90/91 remain inactive. 
•Function 92 and 93 allow for a window of time to be created where if any Group 1 User Code is entered within the programmed window, the 
User Codes in Group 4 will be enabled.  If a Group 1 User does not enter their User Code during the specified window, Functions 92/93 re-
main inactive.  Companies typically use this feature to allow Group 1 Managers the ability to enable all Group 4 staff members during a cer-
tain window of time.   
 The following examples illustrate how Functions 88-93 can be programmed into your DK Series lock via the keypad:  
Functions 88/89:  Use Function 88 to set an Open Time Window (during which the Group 1 User must enter their User Code), and then use 
Function 89 to set the time to close the Window.  Re-lock the door at night manually (Function 46). 
 
1.    Enter Program Mode (if not in already). 
2.    Using Function 2, create User 4 with a User Code of 456789: 
Press ; 2 ; 4 ; 4 5 6 7 8 9 :. 
3.    Because User 4 does not have a default Group association, make User 4 a member of Group 1 using Function 35: 
Press ; 3 5 ; 4 ; 1 :. 
4.    Use Function 88 and Function 89 (see page 28) to designate Passage Mode as being between the hours of 8:30 A.M. and 10 A.M. for all 
days of the week: 
      Function 88  (Open Window Time) = 8:30 A.M.:  Press ; 8 8 ; 0 ; 0 8 3 0 : 
      Function 89  (Close Window Time) = 10:00 A.M.:  Press ; 8 9 ; 0 ; 1 0 0 0 : 
5.    Exit Program Mode (hold down any key for 3 seconds). 
The lock will now be put in Passage Mode (device physically unlocked) if User 4 (or any Group 1 member) enters their User Code between 
8:30 A.M. and 10 A.M.  If a Group 1 User does not enter their User Code during the specified window, Functions 88/89 remain inactive 
•The device will have to be manually locked each night by entering the following command using Function 46: 
; 4 6 : 
•The device can also be programmed to automatically lock (disable Passage Mode) each night at 5 P.M. by using Function 73: 
; 7 3 ; 0 ; 1 7 0 0 : 
•Remember to exit Function Mode when programming is complete.

Groups and Scheduled Group 1 Examples (contd.) 
Functions 90/91:  Use Function 90 and 91 (see page 29) to create a window of time where if any Group 1 User Code is entered within the 
programmed window, a relay will be activated for 2 seconds.  The relay can be configured to disarm a burglary control panel.  See page 29. 
 
1.    Enter Program Mode (if not in already). 
2.    Connect relay to a burglar control panel with switch input for disarming. 
3.    Using Function 2, create User 4 with a User Code of 456789: 
Press ; 2 ; 4 ; 4 5 6 7 8 9 :. 
4.    Because User 4 does not have a default Group association, make User 4 a member of Group 1 using Function 35: 
Press ; 3 5 ; 4 ; 1 :. 
5.    Use Function 90 to set the time to open the window (8:30 A.M. all days of the week) allowing any Group 1 member to close the relay for 2 
seconds.  Note:  Only 1 relay closure will occur even if another member of Group 1 enters their User Code.  Use Function 91 to set the 
time to close the window (10 A.M. for all days of the week): 
      Function 90  (Open Window Time) = 8:30 A.M.:  Press ; 9 0 ; 0 ; 0 8 3 0 : 
      Function 91  (Close Window Time) = 10:00 A.M.:  Press ; 9 1 ; 0 ; 1 0 0 0 : 
6.    Exit Program Mode (hold down any key for 3 seconds). 
 The relay will close, one time only, when a member of Group 1 enters their User Code between 8:30AM and 10:00AM.  If a Group 1 User 
does not enter their User Code during the specified window, Functions 90/91 remain inactive 
•The alarm panel will have to be armed at night by the User or by an automatic schedule function of the alarm panel. 
 
 
Functions 92/93:  Use Function 92 and 93 (see page 30) to create a window of time where if any Group 1 User Code is entered within the 
programmed window, Group 4 Users will be enabled. 
 
1.    Enter Program Mode (if not in already). 
2.    Using Function 2, create User 4 with a User Code of 456789: 
Press ; 2 ; 4 ; 4 5 6 7 8 9 :. 
3.    Because User 4 does not have a default Group association, make User 4 a member of Group 1 using Function 35: 
Press ; 3 5 ; 4 ; 1 :. 
4.    Using Function 17, disable Group 4.  (Group 4 will need to be disabled before it can be enabled later). 
Press ; 1 7 :. 
5.    Use Function 92 to set the time to open the window (8:30 A.M. all days of the week) allowing any Group 1 member to enable Group 4.  Use 
Function 93 to set the time to close the window (10:00 A.M. all days of the week).   
      Function 92  (Open Window Time) = 8:30 A.M.:  Press ; 9 2 ; 0 ; 0 8 3 0 : 
      Function 93  (Close Window Time) = 10:00 A.M.:  Press ; 9 3 ; 0 ; 1 0 0 0 : 
6.    Exit Program Mode (hold down any key for 3 seconds). 
 
The lock will now enable Group 4 User Codes if User 4 (or any Group 1 member) enters their User Code between 8:30 A.M. and 10 A.M.  
If no Group 1 member arrives to enter their User Code between 8:30 A.M. and 10 A.M., Group 4 User Codes will not be enabled and will 
remain disabled all day. 
•The device will have to be manually locked each night by entering the following command using Function 82: 
; 4 6 : 
•The device can also be programmed to automatically disable Group 4 members each night at 5 P.M. by using Function 82: 
; 8 2 ; 0 ; 1 7 0 0 : 
•Test the device by creating User 222 (with User Code 466466) and adding User 222 to Group 4: 
; 2 ; 2 2 2 ; 4 6 6 4 6 6 : 
; 3 5 ; 2 2 2 ; 4 : 
•Remember to exit Function Mode when programming is complete.

when the lock was first taken out of its box.  The default settings 
are permanently encoded within the locks fixed memory, and 
when the lock is first started, or when power is removed and re-
applied (see Wiring and Power-Up, page 11), the original factory 
default settings are re-loaded and take effect.
