Wiegand Front End Programming

The following sections detail how to program the prox.pad while in Weigand Front End Mode.
3.3.1

Entering Program Mode

The first step in programming the prox.pad unit is to place it into program mode by using the master code, which is defaulted to 1234.
To place the prox.pad unit in program mode, press: 99 # Master Code *
When the prox.pad is in program mode the yellow LED flashes slowly.
When you are done programming, to exit program mode press the * key.
If at any point you make a programming error (either press a wrong key or perform a command the unit does not recognize), the unit
produces a program error by turning on the yellow LED solid. To clear a program error, simply press the * key.
Note: If you don't know the master code, refer to section 1.17 to press the program button (SW1) on the main circuit board.
Momentarily pushing this button forces the unit into program mode. Also refer to Table 13 for further details on troubleshooting
issues with the master code.
3.3.2

Changing the Master Code

The default master code of 1234 must be changed prior to performing any programming on the prox.pad unit. Attempting to
perform any programming commands produces a program error (solid yellow LED). To clear this error simply press the * key. The
only exception to this rule is the 46 command, used to default the unit. All other programming is not allowed.
To change the master code use the following programming sequence:
1. Enter Program Mode
Press: 99 # master code *
The yellow LED flashes slowly.
2. Program the new master code.
Press: 1 # new master code * repeat new master code *
3. Exit Program Mode
Press: *
The yellow LED stops flashing.
Note: Throughout the programming section the last step is to exit program mode. If you are going to program multiple keypad options,
you are not required to exit program mode after each command sequence. You may continue to the next programming option without
exiting program mode. When all your programming is complete, you can then exit program mode by pressing the * key.
