Frequently Asked Questions - Oracode 480 Dormakaba

How do I change the backset of the deadbolt?

The deadbolt is pre-set at 2-3/4" (70mm) backset. To change to 2-3/8" (60mm), remove the tape, slide the bolt mechanism as shown in the manual, and reassemble. Ensure the slot at the bottom aligns properly.

What should I do if a valid code is not accepted?

If a red LED flashes and a low-pitch beep is heard, the code is refused. Check that the lock is programmed correctly using the Oracode Maintenance Unit and that a valid code was generated on the website. Contact dormakaba Technical Support at 1-888-217-5654 (US/Canada) if the issue persists.

How can I reset the lock to factory defaults?

Remove the inside cover and batteries. After 1 minute, reinsert batteries. The green LED will blink quickly for 15 seconds. Press # # # while blinking, then press 1 2 3 4 5 6. A long beep and green LED flash confirm reset. You must then reprogram the lock with the Maintenance Unit.

How do I perform a wireless link test between the lock and Smart Controller?

Ensure the Smart Controller is in ZigBee 'Join' mode (enable via website). On the lock keypad, press # # # 1. A green LED and high-pitch beep indicates good link quality. A red LED and low-pitch beep indicates a bad link; improve Smart Controller positioning and retry.

What is the Smart Controller used for?

The Smart Controller (Oracode 480i series) enables wireless communication between the lock and the Oracode server. It connects to the internet via Ethernet and allows remote management, code generation, and monitoring. It must be placed within 33 ft of the lock and away from Wi-Fi devices.

How often should I reset the lock's internal time?

The time should be reset at least once a year using the Oracode Maintenance Unit. If the green LED blinks twice after a valid code entry, it indicates a loss of time; reset immediately. The internal battery backup maintains time for a minimum of 4 weeks without main batteries.

Can I install the Oracode 480 on an emergency exit door?

No. The manual explicitly states: This lock is not designed to be used on emergency exit doors. Use only on standard doors.

What tools are required for installation?

Required tools include: safety glasses, 1/2" chisel, 1/8" and 5/32" drill bits, 1" and 2-1/8" hole saws, drill, awl or center punch, screwdrivers (1/8" slotted, #2 Phillips), adjustable square, and tape measure.

How do I test the mechanical key override?

With the door open, project the deadbolt. Insert the key and rotate it clockwise until it stops. Then turn the outside thumbturn to retract the deadbolt. The key override always rotates clockwise.

What does it mean if the green LED blinks twice after entering a valid code?

This indicates that the lock's internal time has been lost (battery backup depleted). You must reset the time using the Oracode Maintenance Unit. The green LED blinks twice after a valid code entry or twice after a refused code entry (red LED then green).

11 Lock Programming

IMPORTANT

If your lock is already pre-programmed, you can go directly to section 3 below. Otherwise, follow the instructions in sections 1 and 2 below to program the lock.

1. Maintenance unit

To program the lock, you will need a Maintenance Unit running the Oracode application and the correct door configuration. You will need to login on the dormakaba e-code website (www.kaba-ecode.com) with a valid Username and Password in order to create the door and download it to the Maintenance Unit. If necessary, contact the dormakaba Technical Support Hotline [phone] US & Canada), (1-514-340-9025 International) or contact your Oracode representative for assistance.

2. Lock programming

Program the lock using the Oracode Maintenance Unit.

3. Code generation

Generate a valid code for this door on the www.kabaecodewireless.com website. You will need to login with a valid Username and Password in order to generate codes

4. Code entry and access

Enter the valid code on the lock keypad. A short beep can be heard and the green LED flashes for each key pressed. You will hear a longer beep and see a longer green LED flash when the code is accepted. The outside turn knob is then engaged for several seconds (5 to 15 seconds, depending on the configuration). If a red LED flashes and a low-pitch beep is heard when the code is entered, this indicates that the code is refused.

15 Maintenance when required

1. Time programming

The time is set automatically in the lock when the lock is programmed. The Oracode lock time should then be reset every year with the Maintenance Unit to ensure accurate time.

The lock has an internal battery back-up that keeps the internal time accurate for a minimum of four weeks when the lock's batteries are disconnected. If this period is surpassed and the lock time is lost, the green LED will blink twice after a valid code is entered, and the red LED will blink twice after a code is refused. This indicates that the time must be reset with the Maintenance Unit.

2. Reset to factory default

NOTE: You will need to reprogram the lock with a Maintenance Unit after you perform a Reset to Factory Default.

Perform the following steps to erase a lock's configuration and restore the default factory settings.

1. Remove the inside cover and remove the batteries.
2. After 1 minute, re-install the batteries. The green LED should blink quickly for 15 seconds.
3. Press #,#,# while the green LED is blinking. The green and red LED should blink one after the other for 15 seconds.
4. Press 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 while the red and green LEDs are blinking. You will hear a longer beep and see a longer green LED flash when the code is accepted and the default factory setting are restored. If a red LED flashes and a low-pitch beep is heard, this indicates that the code is refused.
