Installation Guide
Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for preparing the door and installing the lock components. Following these guidelines ensures a secure and functional setup of the Schlage CO-100.
Preparing the Door for Installation
Before installing the Schlage CO-100, ensure the door is properly prepared. Begin by checking the door’s thickness and confirming it matches the lock’s specifications. If an insulator strip is present, carefully remove it to ensure proper contact between the lock and the door surface. Inspect the door frame for any damage or misalignment, and correct as needed.
Verify that the existing bore holes align with the CO-100’s installation requirements. If necessary, drill new holes according to the provided template. Ensure the latch bore is the correct size and depth. Clear any debris from the bore holes to facilitate smooth installation.
Finally, check the door handing (left or right) and adjust the lock components accordingly, if applicable. Proper door preparation is essential for a secure and reliable installation;
Installing the Lock Components
Begin by installing the necessary sex bolts to securely fasten the device to the door. Insert the spindle into the assembly, ensuring it aligns correctly with the lever mechanism. Install the cylinder and lever, checking the lever handing to match the door’s orientation. Attach the outside assembly, followed by the inside assembly, ensuring all components fit snugly and are properly aligned.
Connect any necessary wiring, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Install the grommet to protect the wiring and ensure a secure connection. Secure all screws and fasteners, but avoid over-tightening. Test the lever’s operation, ensuring smooth and unrestricted movement. Verify that the lock engages and disengages properly.
Finally, double-check all connections and components before completing the installation. A correctly installed lock ensures optimal performance and security.
Programming and Operation
This section covers programming the Schlage CO-100, including manual commands for setting up user codes and configuring lock functions. It also details the basic operation of the lock and credential types.
Manual Programming Commands
Manual programming of the Schlage CO-100 requires careful attention. Always wait for the Schlage button LEDs to stop flashing before proceeding to the next step. Programming mode will time out if no entry is made within 20-25 seconds, indicated by three left and nine right red blinks. For creating a 3-6 digit PIN, a confirmation of two right green blinks will appear.
To freeze a PIN, press the Schlage button again to finish the process. For pass-through credentials, a 10-second delay is indicated by two right green blinks. The beeper can be enabled or disabled using manual programming as well. These commands ensure secure and efficient lock operation.
Using the Lock: Basic Operation
Operating the Schlage CO-100 is straightforward. To unlock, enter a valid PIN. In normal use, the Schlage button will blink to confirm the action. If the lock is in Classroom/Storeroom function, the outside lever is normally locked, restricting entry.
To test the lock function, enter the default PIN, which will unlock the door. To lock, simply press the interior push button (IPB). When the IPB is depressed to unlock, it remains unlocked until pressed again. Low battery indications are signaled by red or green blinks when using the IPB. These simple steps ensure effective lock usage.
Credential Types and Functions
The Schlage CO-100 supports various credentials to manage access effectively. The primary credential is the PIN, which can be programmed manually with 3-6 digits.
For programming, wait for the Schlage button LEDs to stop flashing between steps. Normal use credentials involve entering a programmed PIN followed by pressing the Schlage button. Pass-through credentials can also be enabled or disabled, providing temporary access. Understanding these credential types and functions is crucial for maintaining secure and controlled access using the Schlage CO-100 electronic lock system, ensuring flexibility and security.
Troubleshooting and Error Codes
This section addresses common issues and error codes encountered with the Schlage CO-100. Understanding error indications, like blinking LEDs, helps in diagnosing problems, ensuring smooth operation, and resolving potential lock malfunctions.
Understanding Error Codes
The Schlage CO-100 uses visual signals to communicate errors. These error codes are indicated by the Schlage button’s LEDs, displaying a solid red left LED coupled with a blinking green right LED. The number of green blinks signifies the specific error. For instance, a single green blink might indicate a low battery.
Understanding these codes is crucial for diagnosing issues. A computer programming error (incomplete) is indicated differently. Consulting the manual for the specific number of green blinks will reveal the exact problem, guiding troubleshooting steps. Properly interpreting these codes is essential for maintaining the lock’s functionality.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
When the Schlage CO-100 malfunctions, troubleshooting can restore proper function. If the lock doesn’t respond to valid PINs, first ensure the beeper isn’t disabled via manual programming. Next, verify the batteries are correctly installed and not depleted, or check the wired power connection.
For unresponsive locks, check for loose wiring, obstructions, or damage. Consulting the error codes section can pinpoint specific problems. If issues persist, resetting to factory defaults or contacting Schlage support may be necessary. Consistent maintenance helps prevent many common problems, ensuring reliable operation of your CO-100 lock.
Factory Settings and Resetting
Restoring the Schlage CO-100 to its original factory settings is sometimes necessary for troubleshooting or reconfiguring the lock. This section guides you through the process of resetting, ensuring a clean slate for reprogramming.
Resetting to Factory Defaults
To reset the Schlage CO-100 to its factory defaults, begin by removing the battery. Press and hold the Schlage button while reconnecting the battery. Continue holding the Schlage button until you hear two beeps and see two green blinks. Release the Schlage button at this point.
This action clears all previously programmed settings, including user codes and configurations, reverting the lock to its original state. After the reset, the lock will operate with its default settings. Ensure you have the necessary programming credentials to reconfigure the lock after the reset.
Following these steps will allow you to reset the lock.
