							3USER’S GUIDE TO DL2500-SERIES CODES & FEATURES
CONGRATULATIONS! Your new Alarm Lock Trilogy electronic digital lock
is a rugged entry lock of advanced design with several programmable
features. Three security levels are provided: Master, Management, and
User, the latter comprising 15 User Codes, including a 1—time entry
Service Code. Security is assured through the availability of
29,000,000 code combinations. Take the time to read through this guide
to familiarize yourself with the features and operation of the lock,
and its quick and easy programming procedures.
PROGRAMMING YOUR CODES
The 0L2500 allows you to program
o1 Master Code (all functions including entry)
o1 Management Code (all functions including entry, but not Master
Code, Management Code or Passage Function)
o15 User codes (3 banks of 5; entry only)
o1 Service Code (1-time entry)
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to program any codes or features, note
the following:
oWhen a valid code is entered, the lock will unlock immediately and
remain unlocked for about 5 seconds (or longer, if reprogrammed) .
When attempting to change a code, the respective program code and
replacement code must be entered while unlocked. Therefore, it is
recommended that all codes be prepared in advance for reference
during programming, then be secured or destroyed when finished.
oA beep will sound (a) when each key is pressed and (b) after a valid
code is entered and (c) at the end of the unlock time (just before
the unit relocks).
oIf a wrong key is pressed during code entry, press the [AL] Button
to clear the entry and start again.
oTwo beeps will sound at the end of the antitamper lockout time.
oFive beeps will sound upon entry of an invalid code.
oSix beeps indicate acceptance of a programmed code.
MASTER CODE.
The Master Code can program any entry code or feature. It may
consist of 3 to 5 digits; the number of digits selected determines the
number required for all other codes. The factory— programmed code is
“1—2—3—4—5”, but this code must be changed as follows to preserve
security. For example, change the factory— programmed Master Code to
“5-4-3-2-1”.  Note: (1) Changing the Master Code will erase all other
codes. (2) To conserve battery life, do not leave the lock in the
Master Program Mode.
1.Enter existing Master Code: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. A beep will soundand the lock will open.
2.within 5 seconds, enter Master Program Code: [AL] [1] [AL].3.Within 5 seconds, enter new Master Code: [5] (4] [3] [2] [1].4.(For Master Code only): Press [AL].
5.Enter Master Code again to validate (only Master Code must be 
						

							4validated): [5) [4) [3] [2] [1]. Six beeps will sound and lock will
relock after about five seconds.
6.Test the new Master Code. Enter: [5] [4) [3] [2) [1]. A beep will
sound and the lock will open.
Note:If only one code is required, stop here and proceed to
PROGRAMMING SPECIAL FEATURES.
MANAGEMENT CODE.
The Management Code can program any user code (but not the Master or
Management Code) or any programmable feature except the Passage
Function. It must contain the same number of digits as the Master
Code. The following example will program a Management Code of
“2,3,4,5,1”, using the Master Code programmed in the example above.
Note: Changing the Management Code will not affect any other code.
1.Enter existing Master Code: [5] [4] [3] [2] [1]. A beep will sound
and the lock will open.
2.Within 5 seconds, enter Management Program Code: [AL) [2) [AL].3.Enter the Management Code: [2] [3] [4] [5) (1].4.Test the Management Code. Enter: [2] [3] [4] [5] [1). A beep will
sound and the lock will open.
Note: If only two codes are required, stop here and proceed to
PROGRAMMING SPECIAL FEATURES.
USER CODES. (Provides entry only.)
Up to 15 User Codes are available in three banks, each containing
five users. User Codes are programmed by either a Master Code or a
Management Code and the respective User Program Code shown below.
Users may be “locked out” either individually or by bank, therefore
when assigning codes, consider which users or groups will be denied
access on a regular basis to simplify the lockout procedure.

User5 AL-b-S-ALUser5AL-2-5-ALUser5*AL-3-5-AL
*May be programmed as Service Code (AL-3-AL). See SERVICE CODE.
Table 1. User Program Codes.
User Codes must consist of the same number of digits as the Master
Code. To program any User Code:
1.Enter the Master Code or Management Code. A beep will sound and the
lock will unlock.
2.From the above table, enter the respective Program Code for theselected user.
3.Enter the User Code. Six beeps will sound.4.Test the User Code.
Note: If several User Codes will be programmed at one time, it is
not necessary to re—enter the Master or Management Code for each, so
long as the lock is not allowed to relock. Therefore, 
						

							5after the six beeps sound (step 3, above) repeat steps 2 and 3 as
necessary, then test all codes when done.
SERVICE CODE.
The Service Code is a one—time User Code for cleaning crews,
babysitters, etc., which erases itself immediately after use. It is
programmed as any User Code, with the Program Code AL-3-AL. If
programmed, the Service Code replaces User Code 15 (Bank 3, User
5).
PROGRAMMING SPECIAL FEATURES
LOCKOUTS.
Any single user, any bank of users, or all users may be prevented
from entry.
User Lockout. To temporarily disable any single user’s entry code,
1.Enter the Master Code or Management Code.
2.From Table 1, enter the user’s Program Code.
3.Wait for the lock to relock.
To re—enable the code, repeat the procedure.
Group Lockout. To temporarily disable all user entry codes of one or
more banks,
1.Enter the Master Code or Management Code.
2.From Table 2, enter the Bank Disable Code(s).
3.Wait for the lock to relock.
To re—enable the code(s), repeat the procedure, replacing the Disable
Code in Step 2 with the Enable Code. Note: Re—enabling a group lockout
does not re—enable a single—user lockout of that group (see above).

UNLOCK TIME.
This is the amount of time that the lock is open after a valid
code is entered. The factory—programmed time is 5 seconds, however
this time may be increased to up to 20 seconds as follows.
1.Enter the Master Code or Management Code.
2.Enter [AL] [4] [5] [AL].
3.From Table 3, enter the desired unlock time.

Table 3. Unlock Times (times approximate).
Note:To conserve battery power, keep unlock time as short as
possible.
PASSAGE.
Programming the Passage Function will maintain the DL2500 unlocked
until reprogrammed. To set the Passage Function, enter the Master
Code, then press [AL) [4] [AL]. To relock, enter the Master Code, then
press [AL] [5) [AL].
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
USE OF MULTIPLE DIGITS.
When programming entry codes, digits need not be limited to single
buttons. Any combination of two or more buttons pressed at the same
time will be considered as 1 valid digit of the code.
ANTITAMPER PROTECTION.
If three invalid codes are entered in succession, the unit will shut
down for approximately 20 seconds to prevent code tampering.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT.
A S—second dual tone (4 seconds high; 1 second low) when any key is
pressed indicates that the batteries are weak. The DL2500 uses two
popular-sized 9—volt alkaline batteries. The lock will function with
weak batteries, however be sure to replace both batteries as soon as
possible.
Remove the screw at the top of the interior lock housing and remove
the lid. Replace both batteries quickly —- within about 60 seconds —— toavoid losing the memorized codes. Replace the battery lid, then test
the lock.
Note:Should battery power fail and all codes be erased, open the door
using the supplied key (key—override models) and replace the
batteries. Reprogram all codes using the original factory Master Code
(1—2—3—4—5).
