1.12 Battery Operation
The LS1 is a battery powered product. When system is not in use, it consumes very little power, but the batteries normally
discharge over an extended period. The unit powers itself down (sleep mode) after each of the following events:
● Fifteen (15) seconds after the last keypress that does not result in an unlock
● Immediately after sending the lock pulse, regardless of what triggered it (valid PIN or REX)
● Fifteen (15) seconds after a Lockout Code is entered
● Immediately after a Toggle/Passage (on/off) code is entered
The LS1 is equipped with two separate low voltage warnings to indicate when the batteries are low and should be
changed. To determine the operating voltage, the unit wakes up momentarily every 30 seconds to check the battery
voltage. If the battery is below the warning threshold you get a warning. These are described below.
1.12.1 Low Voltage Warning

When the battery voltage drops below 4.4 Volts, the Low Voltage Warning sounds after entering a valid code. This
warning is indicated by four long beeps. The lock still activates allowing you access through the door. At this point, it is
recommended that you change the batteries as soon as possible.
1.12.2 Low Voltage Inhibit Warning

The Low Voltage Inhibit Warning, which occurs when the voltage drops below 4.0 Volts, is a more severe condition that
requires you change the batteries immediately. This is indicated by four long beeps, a pause, then another four long
beeps. When this condition occurs the lock does not activate when a user enters their code. In order to get through the
door, you must enter either the Master Code, the Supervisor Code or an Emergency Code. These codes have special
privileges that allow the door to unlock when the voltage is this low. This allows you access to the secure area to change
the batteries.
1.13 Performing a Keypad Self-Test

To verify that all the LS1 keypad keys are operating properly, you can perform the keypad self-test.
To perform the keypad self-test enter the following on the keypad outside of programming mode:
Press: 7890 # 123456 ✱
While you are pressing the keys pay attention to the keypress audible and visual feedback (if enabled). Each key should
beep when pressed and the yellow LED should flash. If the test is successful the keypad LED’s will cycle and the unit
beeps three times, followed by a double-beep. The yellow LED flashes on the first beep of the double-beep.

2.2 Programming Users
The following section describes in detail how to program users. The LS1 can store up to 120 users. Each user is stored in
a separate location in the unit’s memory. This is referred to as the user location. Codes can be from 1 to 6 digits in length
in any combination.
If at any point while programming a code, you get a programming error (solid yellow LED), and you know you are entering
the command correctly, make sure that the code is not already programmed. If you are unsure, try entering that code
outside of Program Mode and see if you are granted access. If so, you must use a different code for that user.
Note: It is recommended that you keep a list of all the users you have programmed in the device, in case you need to
modify or delete a particular user.
2.2.1 User Types

The table below identifies and describes the five user types supported by the LS1 unit. The user type number is used in
programming commands in the subsequent sections where it indicates “user type.”
Table 5. User Types
User Type Name User Type Number Description

Toggle users are used to latch the lock in the unlocked position for an
Toggle User 0 indefinite period of time. Entering the same (or another) toggle code,
re-locks the unit.
Normal access users are the default user type. This user type unlocks the
Normal Access 1
door for the duration of the Lock Time set in Command 11.
This user type, locks the keypad disallowing all other codes in a higher user
location, plus the door remains in the current state. If it is locked, it remains
Lockout 3
locked. If it is unlocked, it remains unlocked until another Lockout code (or
the same one) is entered, releasing it from Lockout mode.
Single use users are allowed to gain access only once. After you enter
this code the user is deleted from memory. To verify a single use code is
Single Use Code 5 still programmed enter 5 # code ✱. This looks up the code and flashes the
green LED for ½ second if it's still programmed. If it's not found the unit
beeps 3 times quickly.

2.3.2 Propped Door and Forced Door Audio Alerts

The LS1 is equipped with a local sounder, which is used for the Propped Door and Forced Door audio alerts. By default,
these audio alerts are disabled. You have the option to enable them separately or enable them both.
The detect a propped door or forced door, a normally closed (closed when the door is shut) door position switch must be
installed and wired to the WHITE and YELLOW wires in the LS1 battery compartment.
To ensure that a forced door audio alert does not occur when the door is opened from the secure side of the door (the
side without the keypad), the Normally Open Request-To-Exit (REX) input of the LS1 must be closed prior to using
the handle to open the door. The REX wires (BROWN and ORANGE) are located in the battery compartment. Either
an external REX button, or an LS1 ordered with the -REX option installed (internal switch on the inside door handle
connected to the brown and orange wires) must be used to prevent a forced door audio alert when the door is opened
from the secure side.

6-258004 X2 13
2.4.3 Auto-Entry
Auto-Entry is a feature that determines whether or not you need to press the ✱ key after entering your access code on
the keypad. By default, the feature is disabled which means you are required to enter the ✱ key after your access code
to gain entry. If you enable the feature you are not required to enter the ✱ key after entering your code to gain entry. This
feature applies only to codes that are the same length as the Master Code. For example if the Master Code is four-digits,
your user code must be four digits to use the auto-entry feature. All codes less than four digits require the ✱ key. Codes
longer than the Master Code are not allowed, since you’ll reach that number of digits prior to entering the ✱ key.
Note: When auto-entry is enabled you do not have to press the ✱ key after “99 # Master Code” to enter Program Mode.
To enable or disable Audio-Entry use Command 30, Option 2:

2. To enable this feature, press: 30 # 2 # 1 # ✱ ✱ DEFAULT

To disable this feature, press: 30 # 2 # 0 # ✱ ✱
DISABLED
SETTING
Press: ✱
2.4.4 User Lockout

User lockout is used to lock down the unit so users cannot gain entrance through the door. If a locked out user attempts to
gain access after a lockout code (user Type 3) is entered the unit indicates an access denied error condition.
The User Lockout option allows user codes to be assigned as a “Lockout” user (Type 3). When this type of code is
entered, only codes in lower locations function; codes in higher locations do not function.
For example, if user 30 is a lockout user and they enter their code, users 31 to 120 will be denied access. Then, if after
that, user 10 is a lockout user and they enter their code, users 11 to 120 will be denied access (including lockout user 30
who use to have access).
To remove the lockout, the same code that started the lockout can be entered again, or a lockout code in a lower position than
the first lockout can be entered twice (once to change the first lockout code position, then a second time to clear the lockout).
The default setting is enabled.
Note: The Master Code, Supervisor Code, and Emergency Code users can’t be locked out.
To enable or disable User Lockout use Command 30, Option 5:

DEFAULT
ENABLED
Press: ✱
14 6-258004 X2
2.4.5 Error Lockout
This feature refers to the number of invalid keypad attempts you can make before the keypad locks up. It’s used to keep
people from continually attempting to gain access to the door by entering various code combinations by trying to guess a
code. Error Lockout is enabled by default.
This also applies to attempting to enter Program Mode by guessing the Master Code. As attempts are made, the unit
maintains a count of the number of consecutive invalid attempts. When the number reaches the value programmed in the
Error Lockout Threshold, the unit locks up for the amount of time programmed in the Error Lockout Duration.
When the unit locks up, the yellow LED remains on solid for five seconds and turns off. If error lockout is still active when
the unit wakes up, the yellow LED remains on solid for an additional five seconds.
To enable or disable Error Lockout use Command 30, Option 3:

DEFAULT
The yellow LED continues to flash slowly. ENABLED
Press: ✱
2.4.5.a Error Lockout Threshold

The Error Lockout Threshold is the number attempts you can make before the unit locks up. The default value is 3
attempts.
There are a couple of ways to reset this count prior reaching the count limit. You can reset it by either entering a valid
keypad code, entering a valid [99 # Master code ✱] sequence, or by the expiration of the keypad timer.
To change the Error Lockout Threshold, use Command 32, Parameter 0:

DEFAULT
2. Enter the Error Lockout Threshold (value = 1 to 50; default = 3 attempts).
Press: 32 # 0 # value # ✱ ✱
