Lock Operating Modes
In addition to the setups listed above, 4 operating modes are available to the
ADVANCE RFID, HT RFID and HT Prox Lock:
• Standard Mode – When the lock is in standard mode, a valid key is
required to gain access to the lock.
• Office (Free) Mode – The locks may be configured to allow Office (or
Free) access. When in this mode, no key is needed to gain access as the
lock remains in the unlocked position. The locks may be placed in and
out of office mode in two ways:
o Present certain authorized cards twice
o Automatically
Note: Only cards that are valid for the lock AND have the
office mode override may be used to put the lock in and out of
office mode.
• Blocked Mode – When a blocking card is presented to the lock, the
Red LED will start flashing and the lock will enter blocking mode.
When a lock is blocked, no guest keys, and only certain master users,
will be allow access to the lock. To exit the blocking mode, present the
blocking card again to the lock. The Green LED will flash once to
indicate that the blocking has been removed.
• Privacy Mode – When the privacy switch is engaged, typically when
the deadbolt is engaged, only valid keys with the privacy override will
be able to access the room.
Caution: If you use a key that has privacy override, no indication
will be given that the lock is in fact in privacy mode.
