Sargent and Greenleaf 6120 Operating Instructions

Model 6120

Introduction

• The Sargent & Greenleaf Model 6120 Motorized Electronic
Combination Lock is shipped from the factory with a factory master
code of 1 2 3 4 5 6 #. This code is used to open the lock and set or
change all of its codes. If the safe maker or your dealer sets a new
master code, he will advise you of the change. You should set the lock
to your own, unique master code immediately.
• The Model 6120 will always open on the master code. At your
discretion, it can also be set to accept up to eight different user codes.
The master code holder is responsible for maintaining the number of
active users programmed into each lock. The master code is designated
as code #1, and the user codes (if set) are designated by user I.D.
number 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. The user codes do not exist until they
are programmed into the lock.
• Each time a button is pressed and the lock accepts the input, it
emits a "chirp," and the LED on the keypad lights momentarily.
• All codes must contain six digits or six letters. Any digit or letter can
be used as many times as you wish. For instance, the following codes
(while not recommended) will operate the lock:
5 5 5 5 5 5 #
• All codes end with #. This signals the lock that you have finished
entering all digits of the code.
• If you pause more than 10 seconds between pressing buttons when
entering a code, the lock will assume you do not want to continue, and
it will go into standby mode. To open the lock, begin the code entry
sequence from the first step.
• If you realize you have pressed an incorrect button when entering a
code, press or simply pause ten seconds or more, then begin entering
*
your code again.
• If four incorrect codes are entered in a row, the lock will shut down
for a period of up to fifteen minutes. This is a security feature. Pressing
any button anytime during the lockout period will reset the timer to its
maximum penalty time. Do not touch any keypad buttons for a period of
fifteen minutes, then enter any valid code to open the lock.
• The model 6120 does not have audit trail capabilities.
• For UL installations, the maximum number of user codes is one.
Note: This lock has been Listed by Underwriters Laboratories for use with the following
S&G keypad(s):

and open the door. Do not put any pressure on the safe handle until
after the code has been entered. The Model 6120 will lock automatically
when the safe door is closed and the handle is turned to the locked
position.

In Case of Trouble

If your lock should fail to open when a valid code is entered, check for
the following:
1. The boltwork of a safe can, under certain conditions, place pressure
on the side of the lock's bolt. This is often caused by something inside
the safe pressing against the door or by something caught between
the safe door and its frame. When this occurs, the lock will not operate
properly. To relieve side pressure on the lock bolt, move the safe's
handle to the fully locked position, then re-enter a working code. The
lock should open.
2. If the lock makes no sound when any of the keys are pressed, or
if the lock "chirps" when keys are pressed, but it will not open, the
batteries may be drained to the point that they will not operate the
lock's motor. Follow the battery replacement procedure in this manual.
3. If the lock makes no sound when any of the keys are pressed, but
the batteries have been checked and found to be good, a loose keypad
connector may be the cause. If your lock uses the two-battery keypad
(pictured to the left of the lock above), pull the keypad away from the
base as described in the battery changing procedure. Check to make
sure the wire connector is firmly seated into its receptacle on the
keypad circuit board. The connector is designed so that it will only slide
into the receptacle when aligned correctly.
If all of the preceding remedies have been exhausted and the lock still
does not open, contact a qualified safe technician in your area for
professional service.

Security Advisory

If your lock is used many times a day (50 or more openings daily), it
is advisable to use as many different keys as possible in your code
number. Avoid using a key more than once whenever possible. Check
the keypad frequently for visible wear which might indicate which keys
are being pressed for code entry. Change the code to use different keys
when wear is evident. If necessary, have a qualified service technician
replace the keypad.
