How to Add an Access Code to a Basic Wireless Keypad
Overview
In this
article you will learn how to add an access code to a basic wireless
keypad. An access code is used to operate the gate. The basic wireless
keypad is capable of holding up to 24 different access codes. An access
code can be up to 5 digits long. If the desired access code is less than
5 digits, it must end with a "#" sign. The "#" is a part of the access
code. An example of this process will be provided at the end of the
article.
Procedure
Enter the Master Password Then Press 9
The
default master password is "11111". The keypad will give 2 short beeps
if this step is done correctly. If you get a long beep at this step,
your master password may be incorrect.
To reset the master password back to the default, refer to this article: How to Reset the Master Password Back to Default on a Basic Wireless Keypad
Enter the Desired Access Code and Then Press 9
If the desired access code is less than 5 digits, it must end with a "#" sign.
Example codes: "24680" "4321#" "25#".
Re-enter the Desired Access Code and Then Press 1 (channel#)
The
keypad will gives 2 short beeps indicating the code has been added
successfully. Pressing 1 at the end of this step selects channel 1 for
the access
code. If you already have a code in the keypad and need the new code to
behave differently from the original (hold-open code, operating a second
gate, etc.), press 2, 3, or 4 in place of the 1 to
select a different channel.
Type the new code in and confirm the light at the top of the keypad flashes.
Pair Keypad to Receiver
Proceed to pairing the keypad to the receiver.
If
your keypad is already paired with your receiver, this step is not
necessary. Only proceed with this step if you are adding your first
code.
Example
The access code in this example will be "3544#", the master password is the default, and the code will be added to channel 1.
After
each key press you must move quickly to the next. If you wait too long
before the next key press, the keypad will exit programming mode and you
will need to start over. We recommend writing down the example below
using your own values before beginning the process. This will help you
do the process quickly, ensuring the keypad doesn't time out and exit
programming.
