SentriLock Upgrade
SentriLock is releasing an
upgraded version of the software that resides in our REALTOR® Lockboxes, giving
you two important new features. The upgraded software is offered free of charge
to all members and enhances the One Day Codes feature, as well as improves the
showing feedback system. With the new upgrade, you will be able to make each
One Day Code expire a preset amount of time after it is first used, thus giving
you greater control over One Day Code usage. The improved showing feedback
feature implements a new method of collecting access log information from your
lockboxes. This new feature will help reduce the amount of time between a
showing occurring and the data being available in the website reports.
SentriLock has also identified an
issue with a small percentage of REALTOR® Lockboxes that typically result in
premature battery depletion. The upgraded version of the software also
eliminates this problem.
The upgrade procedure takes less
than one minute per lockbox, and the only tool you need is your SentriCard, so
we encourage you to perform the upgrade on each of your lockboxes as soon as
it's convenient for you to do so.
Should you have any questions
about the upgrade procedure, or should you need additional help, please contact
SentriLock's customer support toll free at 1-877-736-8745.

Lockbox Firmware Upgrade
Instructions
DO NOT
PULL OUT THE SENTRICARD UNTIL ALL STEPS ARE COMPLETE!
1. First you must start out by
renewing your SentriCard. (Note: The renewal time takes 2 to 3 minutes when the
upgrade program is downloaded onto your SentriCard, so you'll probably notice a
longer renewal time when this occurs.)
2. Prepare the lockbox for the
upgrade. (If the lockbox is already on a listing, please remove the shackle and
take the keys out of the key compartment.)
3. Insert your SentriCard into the
lockbox. The lockbox should make a double beep. When the CODE light
illuminates enter your PIN + ENT. The READY light should illuminate.
4. Upgrade the lockbox firmware.
Press FUNC + FUNC + 37265 + FUNC + ENT. The CARD light will blink while the
lockbox firmware is upgrading.
5. Wait for the upgrade to
complete. After approximately 30 seconds, the lockbox will beep and then flash
the status lights. When all lights turn off, the upgrade is complete. You may
then remove your card, once this final step is complete.
If it has been more than 5 seconds since you've seen any
lights blinking, REMOVE YOUR CARD. If the lockbox was already on a listing
prior to the upgrade, re-insert your card and login to your lockbox by entering
your PIN + ENT. To put the lockbox back on the listing, complete the FUNC 1,
FUNC 2, FUNC 3 sequence that you normally perform when putting a lockbox on a
property.
OPTIONAL: If you would like to verify that the firmware was
successfully upgraded, remove your SentriCard and re-insert it into the
lockbox. When the CODE light illuminates, enter your PIN + ENT. When the READY
light illuminates, press FUNC + FUNC + 43752 + FUNC + ENT. A series of 4 beeps
indicates the lockbox was successfully upgraded.
