WIRING 
See the Installation Manual for more information. 
Batteries: 
Use only 1.5 volt Duracell Alkaline size-AA batteries. 
External Power: 
Red / Black wires - External 7.5 VDC Power Source must 
be used for operation without batteries. 
Remote Input: 
White / White wires - Wire a Normally Open Contact to 
wires (white and white).  Momentarily close to allow 
PL3500/ETPL lock to unlock.  NOTE:  Remote Input is 
enabled from the factory.   
Relay: 
COM-Blue / NO-Yellow / NC-Green 
Erase Memory Leads: 
Yellow / Yellow wires - When shunted during power up, the 
Lock Program memory is erased.   
 
 
POWER UP--FIRST TIME 
•When starting the lock for the first time, turn to page 12 
and follow the Quick Start procedure:  First time Power Up. 
 
 
POWER UP--RETAIN PROGRAMMING 
Use when re-applying power to a lock already in use (you 
wish to retain the Lock Program), such as: 
•When moving an existing lock to a new door.  The lock must 
be dismantled and powered down for an extended period. 
•DL-Windows overwrote Users 298/299 and you have no 
method to initiate lock communications.  Proceed as follows: 
1. Disconnect battery pack connector. 
2. With battery power disconnected, short the two white wires 
(Remote Input wires) together for 10 seconds to ensure dis-
charge of all capacitors. 
3. Re-connect battery pack (lock will sound 3 short beeps).  If 
these 3 beeps are not heard, then restart at step 1. 
4. A 4th beep indicates that the lock has checked its database 
and has found existing valid User programming. 
5. The lock will re-check its database for valid data residing in 
User 298 or User 299 locations.   
a.   If data exists in User 298 or User 299 locations, the 
lock LED will flash red 7 times and 7 beeps will sound.  
The lock is now ready for re-use.  The pre-existing pro-
gram is loaded from fixed memory.  Be sure to re-set the 
clock using DL-W indows. 
b.   If data does NOT exist in User 298 or User 299 loca-
tions (Function Cards were not enrolled into the lock), 
the lock will perform its 30-second initial power up se-
quence.  During this 30 second period, you must plug a 
cable into the communications port and program the 
lock via an AL-DTM or a PC connection.  Since the User 
298/299 locations are blank (or were not programmed), 
the lock does not have the means to initiate PC commu-
nications via a pre-programmed Function Card.  There-
fore, the above power up procedure provides an alter-
nate means to initiate PC communications.   
 
 
BATTERY REPLACEMENT 
When a valid card is presented and the batteries are weak, the sounder will sound for 4 seconds.  Always replace weak batter-
ies (five [5] AA-size 1.5 volt alkaline) as soon as possible. 
1. At the back of the lock, remove the screw at the bottom of 
the lock housing and remove the cover.   
2. Pull out the battery pack and quickly replace all 5 batteries - 
within 1 minute. 
3. If you do not hear the 3 beeps when power is re-applied, all 
programming and settings have been retained, and the lock 
is ready for use.  Go to step 5. 
4. If you do hear 3 beeps when power is re-applied, wait 15 
seconds for the LED to flash red 6 times and 6 beeps will 
sound.  Re-set the clock using DL-W indows.   
5. Replace the back cover and tighten the screw. 
 
 
ERASE ALL PROGRAMMING  
(The out of box factory default will be restored) 
1. At the back of the lock, remove the screw at the bottom 
of the lock housing and remove the cover.   
2. Take out the battery pack and remove battery power by 
disconnecting the battery pack. 
3. Present any card to the card reader to ensure all ca-
pacitor stored power is drained from the lock.  
4. Re-connect the battery pack.  The lock will immediately 
sound 3 short beeps (if these 3 beeps are not heard, 
then restart at step 2).    
5. Within 3 seconds, press and hold down the outside door 
handle until the lock sounds more slow beeps, 1 beep 
for every second it takes to clear the memory.  The out-
side door handle may be released as soon as these 
beeps are heard.   
6. After a few more seconds, the LED will slowly alternate 
between flashing red and green.  
7. The LED will continue to slowly flash green and red for 
25 seconds.  To enroll Function Cards, proceed im-
mediately as follows: 
•With the lock LED slowly alternating between 
flashing red and green, present any PROX 
card to the lock.  The lock will count out 5 slow 
beeps, indicating the lock is about to enter 
Function Card Enrollment Mode.   
•The lock LED will flash green, and the sounder 
will beep rapidly.  The lock is ready to enroll the 
Function Cards.   
•Present Function Card #1 to the lock.  The 
lock LED will flash green then red, with two 
beeps (indicating the card was enrolled suc-
cessfully).   
•Present Function Card #2 to the lock.  Again, 
the lock LED will flash green then red, with two 
beeps.   
•Continue to present, in order, Function 
Cards 3-9.  Each time a new Function Card is 
presented, the lock LED will flash green then 
red, with two beeps. 
 After the 9th Function card is presented, the lock LED will 
flash green twice, sound two beeps, and will then remain 
silent, ready for use.  Note:  If the lock continues to beep 
after presenting the 9th Function Card, check to verify that 
the outside door handle is released.   
Note:  If you only wish to use the first 3 Function Cards, 
simply allow the lock to time out after 30 seconds. 
Wiring and Power Up  
						

							12 
Quick Start 
The following Quick Start guide outlines how to get your lock up and running quickly.  Function Cards will be enrolled, there-
fore before starting, label the 9 proximity cards (provided) with the numbers 1 through 9, and have these labeled cards at 
hand before starting.  If you do not wish to enroll Function Cards (and wish to only program your lock via DL-Windows or via 
an AL-DTM), proceed to First Time Start Up--Using DL-Windows Only (page 13). 
 
First Time Start Up--Using Function Cards 
1.Unpack the lock from its factory packaging. 
2.Install fresh batteries in the battery pack, with attention to the correct polarity as indicated inside the plastic battery 
pack housing. 
3.With battery power disconnected, short the two white wires (Remote Input wires) together for 10 seconds to 
ensure discharge of all capacitors.  After 10 seconds, remove the short. 
4.Connect the battery pack.  The lock will immediately sound 3 short beeps (if these 3 beeps are not heard, then re-
start at step 3).    
5. Within 3 seconds, press and hold down the outside door handle until the lock sounds more slow beeps, 1 beep for 
every second it takes to clear the memory.  The outside door handle may be released as soon as these beeps are 
heard.   
6. After a few more seconds, the LED will slowly alternate between flashing red and green. 
7. The lock LED will flash green and red.   
8.Within 30 seconds, present the Function Card #1 to the lock.  
The lock will count out 5 slow beeps, indicating 
the lock is about to enter Function Card Enrollment Mode.  
 
9.
The lock LED will flash green, and the sounder will beep rapidly.  The lock is ready to enroll the Function Cards.   
10.Re-present Function Card #1 to the lock.  The lock LED will flash green twice, with two beeps.   
11.Present Function Card #2 to the lock.  Again, the lock LED will flash green twice, with two beeps.   
12.Continue to present, in order, Function Cards 3 through 9.  Each time a new Function Card is presented, 
the lock LED will flash green twice, with two beeps (indicating the card was enrolled successfully).  Note:  You 
do not have to present all 9 Function Cards.  For example, if you wish only to use Function Cards #1 through 3, 
simply allow the allow the lock 30 seconds to timeout after presenting Function Card #3. 
13. After the 9th Function card is presented, the lock LED will flash green twice, sound two beeps, and will then be 
ready to use.   
 
 
Enroll ProxCards® 
These ProxCards® will be distributed to Users to allow them access to the protected door. 
1.Present Function Card #3 to the lock.  The green LED will flash continuously (with beeping).   
2.Present the first proximity card you wish to enroll.  When presented, the beeping will momentarily stop, and the 
red LED will flash, indicating that the card is enrolled.  The proximity card will be assigned to User 301.  The beep-
ing and green LED flashing will continue.   
3.Present the second proximity card you wish to enroll.  Again, when presented, the beeping will momentarily 
stop, and the red LED will flash, indicating that the card is enrolled.  The proximity card will be assigned to User 302. 
4. You can continue entering cards in this way, automatically incrementing the User number with each presentation of 
a ProxCard, up to User Number 2000.  If you wish, you can keep track of the enrolled cards and their distribution by 
using the Record Sheet located on page 25. 
5. When finished, or after 30 seconds without a card presentation, the lock will automatically end the enrollment 
sequence (beeping and flashing will stop) and be ready for use.   
Note:  (1) If all User locations are occupied (User Numbers 301-2000), the lock will sound an error sequence (5 beeps 
with 5 flashing red LEDs) and the unit will exit the enrollment sequence and be ready for use.  (2) Attempting to enter a 
card already in the lock will also sound an error sequence (5 beeps with 5 flashing red LEDs) and the unit will exit the 
enrollment sequence and be ready for use.

Quick Start (cont’d) 
Delete ProxCards® 
When deleting enrolled proximity cards with Function Card #4, you must have possession of the card to be deleted.  If 
you wish to delete cards that are NOT in your possession, you must do so either via DL-Windows or a pre-programmed 
AL-DTM module.  WARNING:  If using Function Cards only (without DL-Windows) the only way to delete a previously 
enrolled proximity card that is not in your possession is to clear all lock programming.  See procedure ERASE ALL 
PROGRAMMING on page 11.   
1. Present Function Card # 4 to the lock.  The green LED will flash continuously (with beeping).   
2. Present the first proximity card you wish to delete.  When presented, the beeping will momentarily stop, the red LED 
will flash, (indicating that the card is deleted) and the beeping will stop.  The lock is ready for use. 
3. Before presenting the second proximity card you wish to delete, you must begin again at step 1.   
Note:  Be sure to update the deleted cards in your Record Sheet (located on page 25).   
Note:  Deleted cards leave User Locations in the lock empty.  New cards enrolled will fill those empty user locations first. 
You are now ready to mount and install your PL series lock and give out your enrolled proximity cards.  Before installation, it is 
suggested you test and verify that all User Codes entered are active (see below).   
 
 
First Time Start Up--Using DL-Windows Only 
If you decide that you do not wish to use Function Cards and only want to program the lock via DL-Windows (or via a 
pre-programmed AL-DTM--see note at bottom of page 17 when using an AL-DTM-III), use the following procedure: 
1.Unpack the lock from its factory packaging. 
2.Install fresh batteries in the battery pack, with attention to the correct polarity as indicated inside the plastic battery 
pack housing. 
3.With battery power disconnected, short the two white wires (Remote Input wires) together for 10 seconds to 
ensure discharge of all capacitors.  After 10 seconds, remove the short.   
4.Plug in the (provided) male shunt connector into the yellow wire female connector. 
5.With shunt connector connected, re-connect the battery pack.  The lock will immediately sound 3 short beeps (if 
these 3 beeps are not heard, then restart at step 3).    
6. The lock will then sound more slow beeps, 1 beep for every second it takes to clear the memory.   
7. After a few more seconds, the LED will slowly alternate between flashing red and green--disconnect the yellow 
wire shunt connector. 
8. The lock LED will flash green and red while looking for a PC or AL-DTM at the communications port.   
9.Within 30 seconds, insert the connector into the communications port (observing correct polarity) that 
is either connected to your PC running DL-Windows or an AL-DTM.  The lock will immediately begin to 
send the data into the lock.  When finished, the lock will sound 5 rapid beeps and will be ready for use.  (Note:  
See special instructions for using the AL-DTM to select the door number on page 16). 
Verifying Prox Card and Keyfob Access 
 
Test a programmed ProxCard® or ProxKey® Keyfob: 
 
Present the Programmed ProxCard
® (or Keyfob ) to the Prox reader in front of the lock. 
 
VALID CARD - The Green LED will flash momentarily and the sounder will beep a few times after a valid card or keyfob has 
been presented to the lock.  The PL3500/ETPL will unlock.   
INVALID CARD - The RED LED will flash several times and the sounder will beep several times after an invalid ProxCard
® or 
Keyfob has been presented to the lock.

Function Card #1 
IMPORTANT NOTE:   
When programming is sent from DL-Windows (or an AL-DTM) to the lock, Function Cards 1, 2, 8, and 9 will be overwritten with 
the existing data in DL-Windows for the User Locations 298, 299, 297 and 300, respectively.  Therefore, to continue to use 
Function Cards 1, 2, 8 and 9 that were enrolled at startup with DL-Windows, be sure to enroll those same Function Cards 1, 
2, 8 and 9 used at startup into the correct locations within DL-Windows.  For complete instructions, see the DL-Windows 
User Guide, OI237.   
Initiates PC Communications (User 298) 
Function Card #1 is used to initiate PC communications from your PC and the PL3500 lock or from the PL3500 to your 
PC.  Your PC should be running DL-Windows (version 3.0.4 or later) and should be ready to send its data to or from the 
PL3500.  For more information, please see the DL-W indows User Guide, OI237.  The following details the basic steps: 
 
Send Information to Lock 
1. Connect an AL-PCI2 cable to the COM Port at the rear of your PC to the PL3500 lock, observing tab direction (tab 
to black socket). 
2. In DL-Windows, press the Lock button to open the Lock Data screen.   
3. Click Send/Receive (on the Lock Data screen or the Comm button), and select Send to Lock.   
4. In the Send to Lock dialog, deselect Al l, and select Users and Time/Date.   
5. Click Start.  DL-Windows is now waiting for Function Card #1 to start the data transfer. 
6. Present Function Card #1 to the lock.   
7. Data will now be sent to the lock.  In DL-Windows, the Status Bar in the lower left hand corner of the Send to 
Lock screen will indicate the data transfer.  The Model Type and Firmware Version will be displayed on the Send 
to Lock screen.   
8. After the data transfer is complete, “Send To Lock Successful” will be displayed in the Status Window (lower left 
hand corner) of the Send to Lock screen. 
9. At the end of the transfer process, the PL3500 will sound a series of beeps.  You can disconnect the AL-PCI2 ca-
ble. 
10.Test New User Cards.  Verify that each new user Card allows access when presented to the lock.  Test each 
lock that has been programmed. 
 
Receive Information from Lock 
1. Open DL-W indows and open the Account and lock from which you would like to receive data. 
2. Press Lock to open the Lock Data screen. 
3. Click Send/Receive (on the Lock Data screen or the Comm button).  Select Receive from Lock. 
4. In the Receive from Lock dialog, select Al l. 
5. Connect AL-PCI2 cable to your computer COM port and to the lock, observing tab direction (tab to black socket). 
6. In the Receive from Lock dialog, click Start.  DL-Windows is now waiting for Function Card #1 to start the data 
transfer. 
7. Present Function Card #1 to the lock.   
8. Data will now be received from the lock.  The Receive from Lock screen will display the Model Type and Firm-
ware Version. 
8. When transfer is complete, the PL3500 will sound a series of beeps.  You can disconnect the AL-PCI2 cable.   
9. The Lock Changes screen will appear detailing the disparity between what was seen in the lock program received 
and the corresponding software within DL-Windows.   
Once Function Cards are enrolled during startup, they can quickly perform several functions when presented to the lock.  The 
section below describes how each card is used to perform its specialized function.   
Function Card # 1  
						

							16 
Function Card #2 
Initiates AL-DTM Communications (User 299) 
The AL-DTM is used to transfer Lock Programs (and other data) between DL-Windows and PL3500 locks.  When com-
puters cannot be transported or when electrical power is not available, the hand-held AL-DTM acts as a go-between--it 
allows the transfer of lock data from your PC (through the AL-DTM) to the lock, or in reverse (from the lock through the 
AL-DTM back to your PC).  Requires an AL-PCI2 cable when transferring from your PC to the AL-DTM.  A double-ended 
mini banana plug connector is used when transferring data from the AL-DTM to the PL3500 lock(s) (see page 4 for de-
tails). 
 Function Card #2 initiates communications.  Note:  Function Card #2 does not unlock the PL3500.  For more information 
regarding the AL-DTM, please see the DL-Windows User Guide, OI237.   
 
Important:  All PL3500 locks arrive from the factory configured as Door #1.  If the PL3500 lock data inside the AL-DTM is 
associated with a door number OTHER than door number 1, you MUST select the door number in the AL-DTM before 
transferring data to the lock.  This will ensure that the proper data inside the AL-DTM will be matched to the correct lock.  
The procedure below describes this process:  Note:  The AL-DTM must be configured for Door Select Mode. 
 
SEND PROGRAM TO LOCK (THROUGH THE AL-DTM)  1.     Send Lock Program from DL-Windows to the AL-DTM, Send Program to Lock by connecting the AL-PCI2 
cable (or AL-PRE) to the AL-DTM. 
2.     Connect the AL-DTM to the Lock.  Connect the double-ended banana plug into the AL-DTM and into the lock 
that is to be programmed (observing proper tab direction). 
3.     Press the Green Button on the AL-DTM until the AL-DTM displays the following: 
 
 
 
 
4.     The AL-DTM will display the following:   
 
 
 
 
5.     Using the black keys, change the CURRENT DOOR value until the door number is reached.  If the door number 
is 8, the AL-DTM will display the following: 
 
 
 
 
6.     The AL-DTM will display the following:   
 
 
 
 
7.     Present Function Card #2 to the lock.  The AL-DTM will display the following: 
 
 
 
 
        Packet Numbers will go up until all packets have been transferred to the lock.  The Lock will continue to beep while in 
communication with the AL-DTM.   
8.     At the end of the transfer process, the PL3500 will sound a series of beeps.  You can disconnect the AL-PCI2 
cable.  The following will display: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
9.     Test New User Cards.  Verify that each new user Card allows access when presented to the lock.  Test each 
lock that has been programmed.  To receive information from the lock to the AL-DTM, see next page.

Function Card #2 (contd) 
 
IMPORTANT NOTE:   
When programming is sent from DL-W indows (or an AL-DTM) to the lock, Function Cards 1, 2, 8, and 9 will be overwritten 
with the existing data in DL-Windows for the User Locations 298, 299, 297 and 300, respectively.  Therefore, to continue to 
use Function Cards 1, 2, 8 and 9 that were enrolled at startup with DL-Windows, be sure to enroll those same Function 
Cards 1, 2, 8 and 9 used at startup into the correct locations within DL-Windows.  For complete instructions, see the 
DL-Windows User Guide, OI237.   
 
RECEIVE PROGRAM FROM THE LOCK TO THE AL-DTM  DL-Windows must be first used to instruct the AL-DTM to Receive Program From Lock via the DTM Support screen.  
This way, when the AL-DTM is connected to the PL3500 lock, the AL-DTM will perform the correct operation. 
 
1.     Connect the AL-DTM to the Lock.  Connect the double-ended banana plug into the AL-DTM and into the lock 
that is to be programmed (observing proper tab direction). 
2.     Press the Green Button on the AL-DTM until the AL-DTM displays the following: 
 
 
 
 
 
         The AL-DTM displays the following:

Waiting for Lock 
Power Up or Code 
SPECIAL NOTE:   
WHEN USING AN AL-DTM-III 
 
The procedure below is required only when a PC or DTM 
communication Function Card is not presently enrolled in 
the lock; i.e. the lock is new (out-of-box), or the lock has 
had all programming erased (restoring factory default). 
 
PC/DTM Communications 
With the development of the AL-DTM-III and the latest ver-
sions of DL-Windows, communications using the AL-DTM-
III requires the presentation of Function Card #2 twice.  
Therefore the AL-DTM 299 Function Card #2 must be en-
rolled into the lock prior to using the AL-DTM-III.  In addi-
tion, you can no longer use power up programming to 
establish communications with the AL-DTM-III.  
Procedure: 
All lock programming MUST be erased to restore the out 
of box factory default, as detailed in ERASE ALL PRO-
GRAMMING on page 11.  After erasing all lock program-
ming, the PL3500 waits for a proximity card to be pre-
sented.  Therefore, present a proximity card (to place the 
lock into learn mode), then immediately present the first 
two Function Cards (card #1 for initiating PC communica-
tions, card #2 for initiating AL-DTM communications).  After 
cards #1 and 2 have been presented and enrolled, wait for 
the lock to time-out and lock. 
 
Now the PL3500 can be programmed by the PC or the AL-
DTM-III.    
						

							18 
Function Card #3 
IMPORTANT NOTE:   
Function Cards 3 through 7 are not recognized by DL-Windows.  Therefore, DL-Windows will not send the data for 
Function Cards 3-7 to the AL-DTM, nor will the AL-DTM be able to send this Function Card data to the PL3500 
lock.  Accordingly, Function Cards are designed to be used for limited-use installations where DL-Windows will not 
be used.  When User Numbers are printed in the Audit log, Function Cards 3-7 will appear as User Numbers 
2003-2007. 
Initiates Entry Of New Proximity Cards Starting At User 301  
Function Card #3 is used to initiate the entry of new proximity cards into the PL3500 lock.  The first proximity 
card entered will be assigned to User Number 301; the second card will be assigned to User Number 302, 
and so on until all User Numbers are filled.  If a User Number is already occupied with a proximity card, the 
occupied User Number will be skipped until the next higher unoccupied User Number is found.  If all User 
Numbers, from 301 through 2000 are programmed, an error will sound with 5 rapid beeps, and the PL3500 
will exit this Function and be ready for use.   
 
NOTE:  Users who wish to use Function Cards only (and not DL-Windows) must be in possession of all previ-
ously entered proximity cards in order to remove them (using Function Card #4--see page 19).  If the physical 
card is not available, the only other way to remove the card from the lock program is to erase all cards and 
lock programming (described on page 11, Erase All Programming).  Erasing all programming then requires 
re-programming the Function Cards and all new proximity cards.   
 
Add new proximity cards, as follows: 
1. With all proximity cards to be entered at hand, present Function Card #3 to the lock.  The green LED 
will flash continuously (with beeping).   
2. Present the first proximity card you wish to enroll.  When presented, the beeping will momentarily stop, 
and the red LED will flash, indicating that the card is enrolled.  The proximity card will be assigned to 
User 301.  The beeping and green LED flashing will continue.   
3. Present the second proximity card you wish to enroll.  Again, when presented, the beeping will mo-
mentarily stop, and the red LED will flash, indicating that the card is enrolled.  The proximity card will 
be assigned to User 302. 
4. You can continue entering cards in this way, automatically incrementing the User number with each 
presentation of a card.  If you wish, you can keep track of the enrolled cards and their distribution by 
using the Record Sheet located on page 25. 
5. When finished, simply present a previously enrolled card (or after 25 seconds without a card presenta-
tion), and the lock will automatically end the enrollment sequence (beeping and flashing will stop).

Function Card #4 
IMPORTANT NOTE:   
Function Cards 3 through 7 are not recognized by DL-Windows.  Therefore, DL-Windows will not send the data for 
Function Cards 3-7 to the AL-DTM, nor will the AL-DTM be able to send this Function Card data to the PL3500 
lock.  Accordingly, Function Cards are designed to be used for limited-use installations where DL-Windows will not 
be used.  When User Numbers are printed in the Audit log, Function Cards 3-7 will appear as User Numbers 
2003-2007. 
Initiates Removal Of Next Presented Proximity Card 
Function Card #4 is used to initiate the remove of previously entered proximity cards.  Note:  To use Function 
Card #4, you must be in physical possession of all previously entered proximity cards in order to remove 
them.  If the enrolled card itself is not at hand, Use DL-Windows to remove the selected proximity cards with-
out erasing all programming.  If you did not make use of DL-Windows, the only other way to remove the card 
from the lock program is to erase all cards and lock programming (described on page 11, Erase All Program-
ming).  Erasing all programming then requires re-programming the Function Cards and all new proximity 
cards.   
 
Delete proximity cards as follows: 
1. With all proximity cards to be deleted at hand, present Function Card #4 to the lock.  The green LED 
will flash continuously (with beeping).   
2. Present the first proximity card you wish to delete.  When presented, the beeping will momentarily 
stop, and the red LED will flash, indicating that the card is deleted from the PL3500.  The beeping and 
green LED flashing will stop.   
3. To delete more cards, begin at to step 1 above.   
 
•If a proximity card that is not enrolled in the lock is presented for deletion, the lock will beep 7 times 
with 7 red LED flashes, and the deletion sequence (beeping and flashing will stop) and be ready for 
use.   
•If Function Card #4 is presented and 25 seconds pass without a subsequent card presentation, the 
lock will automatically end the deletion sequence (beeping and flashing will stop).  The lock will again 
be ready for use.   
•Keep track of the enrolled cards and their distribution by using the Record Sheet located on page 25 
(remove any deleted proximity cards from the Record Sheet as necessary).
