5.16 Reading the Diagnostics Key
After the Diagnostics key has been used in the lock, you will need to read it to get the error as to why the
key did not work.
1. Be sure that the PC is turned on, the electronic key encoder device is plugged in an electrical outlet
and the USB cable between them is properly attached (see Section 2.5 "Installing the Electronic Key
Encoder and Utility Device").
2. Insert the Diagnostics key into the electronic key encoder.
3. Point to the Keys pull down menu and
select Read.
Note: If a key is not currently in the
electronic key encoder, the PC will display
an error screen until you insert a key into the
electronic key encoder.
Note: You must keep the USB cable
connected between the electronic key
encoder base and the PC while the key
image spins on the PC screen. When the
key is read it will automatically display the
Key Read PC dialog box.
4. At the Key Read screen, you will see the key type, who
the key was assigned to, the status of the key and who
made the key. Below that is the Diagnostic Key
Information. This will show the error code number and a
brief description explaining why the key did no work in
the lock. If you would like, you can erase the key by
clicking on the Erase box on the bottom right of the
screen. Once the key is erased, click Close to return to
the SAM RF System main menu.
