      8. Click “Download.” You should see a message on the RMS system saying the operation was successful. The handheld programming device should also show a success message. 




      Note - If your locks have previously been programmed, you must clear existing programming before you can add new lock programming.


      1. Insert the mechanical (metal) key into the lock on which you wish to clear programming and turn the key.

      2. While keeping the key turned, swipe the Authorization card three (3) times in front of the lock while the lock is flashing red.

      2. Hold the Authorization Key Card to the lock for 3 seconds. A blue light should show on the lock when successful.
