NOTE:  
The AL-PCI cable is designed to be used on a 9 pin serial COM port. If your computer has a 25 pin COM port, a 25 pin to 9 pin adapter must be used.  
Warning: Polarity MUST be observed when connecting cables to the lock. The tab (-) must plug into the negative (black) hole.
Scenario 4 Use the AL-IR1 Infrared printer to print your lock’s audit trail (event log), User Code list, clock settings and software 
version. No cable required. 
Scenario 1 Create the program in DL-Windows on your computer, then transfer the program from the computer directly to the lock via an

Scenario 2 Create the program in DL-Windows and transfer the program from your computer to an AL-DTM (via an AL-PCI cable)…then 
transfer the program from the AL-DTM to the lock(s) (via a double-ended mini banana plug). The hand-held AL-DTM is useful because 
you do not have to transport (or find electricity for) your computer. Data can also flow in reverse, from the lock, through the AL-DTM, 
back to the computer for examination.
