How to Program A Tru-Bolt Electronic Lock
A Tru-Bolt electronic lock is a smart device that allows you to lock and unlock your door using a numeric keypad, a key, or a mobile app. It is easy to install and program, and it offers various features such as auto-lock, alarm, and user management. In this blog post, I will show you how to program a Tru-Bolt electronic lock using the keypad and the mobile app.
Programming the Keypad
The keypad is the main interface of the Tru-Bolt electronic lock. You can use it to enter user codes, change settings, and lock and unlock the door. To program the keypad, you need to know the master code, which is the default code that comes with the lock. The default master code is 1234, but you can change it to any four-digit code you prefer.
To program the keypad, follow these steps:
- Enter the master code and press the lock button. You will hear one beep and see the light turn green.
- Press the lock button again. You will hear two beeps and see the light flash red and green alternately.
- Enter the number of the function you want to program. For example, to change the master code, enter 1. To add a user code, enter 2. To delete a user code, enter 3. To enable or disable the auto-lock feature, enter 4. To enable or disable the alarm feature, enter 5. To reset the lock to factory settings, enter 6.
- Follow the instructions on the screen or in the user manual to complete the programming. For example, to change the master code, enter the new master code twice. To add a user code, enter the user number (from 1 to 10) and the user code (four digits). To delete a user code, enter the user number (from 1 to 10).
- Press the lock button to exit the programming mode.
Programming the Mobile App
The mobile app is another way to control the Tru-Bolt electronic lock. You can use it to lock and unlock the door remotely, view the lock status and history, and manage users and settings. To program the mobile app, you need to download it from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, and pair it with the lock via Bluetooth.
To program the mobile app, follow these steps:
- Open the app and tap the “+” icon to add a new lock. You will see a list of nearby locks that are available for pairing.
- Select the lock you want to pair and enter the master code. You will hear a beep and see the light turn green on the lock.
- Name the lock and assign it to a location. You can also customize the lock icon and color.
- Tap the lock icon to access the lock settings. You can change the master code, add or delete user codes, enable or disable the auto-lock and alarm features, and adjust the volume and brightness of the lock.
- Tap the history icon to view the lock history. You can see the date and time of each lock and unlock event, and the user who performed it.
- Tap the lock or unlock button to lock or unlock the door remotely. You will see the lock status change on the app and hear a beep from the lock.
