M-Unit User Definition
The E-Plex 5200 and E-Plex 5700 locks can have special M-Unit User Access credentials
(PIN, Prox, or both). This credential is used only to program and/or audit the lock using the
M-Unit PDA as a maintenance function only—the code will NOT open the door. When an M-
Unit User presents/enters his or her M-Unit credential, the lock enters the Communications
Mode with the M-Unit handheld PDA immediately (equivalent to entering the command
#M-Unit PIN/Card#), indicated by alternate green and red flashing LEDs. Now the M-Unit
User can program the lock.
Programming Locks
To program locks, the M-Unit User uses the M-Unit to transfer lock data from the E-Plex
Advanced ACS software to the E-Plex 5200/E-Plex 5700 lock.
Note: Before you can transfer lock data to E-Plex 5200/E-Plex 5700 locks, you must first
prepare the data in the E-Plex Advanced ACS software. Refer to Programming Locks in
chapter 3,
Using the E-Plex Advanced ACS Software, for more information.
Once lock data has been prepared at the PC, you are ready to transfer data to the locks.
Complete the following steps to transfer data to the E-Plex 5200/E-Plex 5700 lock using
HotSync.
Transferring Files from the PC to the Lock through the M-Unit
1. HotSync the M-Unit. Refer to steps 1–4 of HotSyncing the M-Unit in Chapter 2, Getting
Started.
Note: If it appears that the lock data did not successfully transfer to the M-Unit, you
should check to make sure that the Palm HotSync E-Plex ACS Conduit has been
installed on the PC.
To do so, right click on the HotSync icon in the system tray of the PC. Select Custom
from the menu options to display the list of installed conduits and their actions. If
“EPlexACS” is not found in the list, go to the Windows Start menu on the PC and
access Start | Programs | E-Plex Advanced ACS | Install Palm HotSync E-Plex
ACS Conduit to install the conduit. Then, repeat the process to upload data from the
PC to the M-Unit.
2. After you have transferred the files from the PC to the M-Unit, disconnect the M-Unit from
the PC.
Note: Before you can use the M-Unit to program locks, you must have entered the
Customer Key. Refer to Entering Customer Key Information Into the M-Unit in
Chapter 2,
Getting Started, for more information.
3. Go to the door you want to program.
