Installing and Programming RFID Locks:
*Doors must be bored prior to installing locks.
**You must program each module, one by one as you install them. If you install all the modules prior to programming, the Installer Pro application will not be able to identify which module you are trying to program.**
Components:
- Front faceplate
- Back faceplate
- Turn piece square bar
- Batteries
- Battery cover
- Cylinder
- Cylinder screw
- Faceplate screws
- Square bars
- Rubber plug
- Forend / Mortise plate
- Forend screws
- Mortise
- Mortise screws
- OpenKey Module
Lock Installation Video:
- Insert the mortise into the side of the door, ensuring it is the correct direction and feeding the wires at the top of the mortise through the mortise bore whole and out of the top bore hole.
- Affix the mortise into the side of the door using the mortise screws.
- Attach the forend/mortise plate and fix it in with the forend screws.
- On the inside of the front faceplate, remove the screws immediately under the cabling on either side of the cylinder hub.
- Affix the cylinder to the cylinder hub and replace the screws.
- Connect the wires on the inside of the front faceplate to the universal module and mortise wires through the top bore hole. Tuck the wires to ensure they are not pinched, as this will create issues.
- Insert a square bar into the handle boar hole, lining it up with the spindle hole.
- Line up the faceplate, ensuring the components connect in to their appropriate places.
- On the other side of the door, a square bar into the handle boar hole, lining it up with the spindle hole.
- Insert the turn piece square bar on the inside of the back faceplate alining it with the deadbolt lever.
- Line up the back faceplate, ensuring the deadbolt lever is in the right position and the battery cable is accessible through the top battery hole.
- Use the faceplate screws to affix the two sides of the lock to the door.
- Check the installation by trying out the deadbolt lever and handles.
- Install the batteries into the battery cover, ensuring the positive and negative sides are correlated correctly.
- Connect the cable to the battery case cable.
- Line up the battery case and affix the case with a screw
Programming NXT 150 Locks for RFID use:
- Take the handheld programmer and the Authorization Key Card to the first lock.
- Hold the Authorization Key Card to the lock for 3 seconds. A blue light should show on the lock when successful.
- If you see a red light, this means the action was unsuccessful. Return to the Hotel Intelligent System and read the authorization card. Go to "Files" menu and click "System setting", then place the authorization card that came with your encoder on the connected encoder and click "Read Authorization Card." This will associate the card with your programmer.
- Select “Lock Maintenance” on the handheld programmer.
- Select “Install Lock"
- Select the appropriate room number and click the green “OK” button on the programmer.
- Hold the programmer up to the lock for 3 seconds. You should see an “Operation Successful” message on the programmer.
Programming OpenKey Universal BLE Module:
****You must program each module, one by one as you install them. If you install all the modules prior to programming, the Installer Pro application will not be able to identify which module you are trying to program.****
Launch the OpenKey Installer Pro App and verify that Bluetooth is on and permissions granted in the app.
Log in with the property credentials provided by OpenKey.
Select where you will be installing the first module.
Select the room you are going to install from the list of rooms.
- If the room list doesn’t match your property, contact OpenKey.
Reopen the Installer Pro app, and then click “NEXT.”
Place the phone 2 inches from the bottom of the lock and select “INSTALL.”
The app will now search for the module, synchronize, and complete the programming.
*If you have issues, please perform the following troubleshooting steps:
- Verify all wires are connected properly, no wires are pinched, and the lock has power.
- Verify your Bluetooth is on and the app has permission to use it.
- If you continue to have issues, change out the harness first and test again.
- If you continue to have issues, change to a new module and test again.
This completes the programming of this module. Attach the face plate, Click “INSTALL ANOTHER,” and move to the next lock.
