Collecting Audit Data

Of all the processes required to manage electronic locks, collecting audit data is probably the most automated. To collect the data:

...

After you have collected the data, it needs to be downloaded onto the computer. 

• If the Schlage Utility Program is still running, close it before doing anything else by clicking "ok" in the upper right corner of the screen.
• Plug the HHD into the computer. Make sure it is turned on and active.
• Also plug it into the AC adaptor cable so that it can charge it's battery.
• Open the Windows Mobile Device Utility.
• The HHD should automatically sync. If it doesn't, you may have to unplug the HHD and try again.
• Allow the HHD to sync the files to the computer using Windows Mobile Device Utility.That's it. That's all you have to do. 

Troubleshooting When Collecting Audit Data

"Audit report already exists. Overwrite existing report?"

The answer is no. Always no at first. It's a pain but take the HHD to the computer and download the data. Then go back to pulling audits. If you get the message again after syncing the HHD with the computer, then you can override the report.

Date/Time doesn't match HHD message

...

1. Remove the cable from the lock. The HHD will take a moment or two to realize you've pulled the plug but that's okay.
2. Use the master key card Unfreeze the lock by using the pass through credential to unlock the door. But ; don't open the door . You aren't entering the room. You are just unfreezing the lock.The master key card is a "pass through" credential. This means it will work even when the lock is frozenor enter the room.
3. Wait until you hear the door lock again.
4. Plug the cable back into the lock and start over.

• There is a good chance the program will freeze during this process. Just give it time. It is processing a lot of data and it may take as long as 10 minutes before the program unfreezes.You will probably get a spinning wheel. It may take several minutes for the cursor to return. Don't panic. Just be patient.
• Once the cursor returns, choose Door/Date.

Losing Audit Data

There The most common way to lose audit data is to transfer SMS to a new computer without producing a final audit report before the transfer. This is because the computer that has the program installed assigns a unique number to the lock. The program uses that number to match audit data to the lock. To avoid this, be sure to take a couple steps before transferring the software.
