Real Estate Agents rely on lockboxes to store keys for homes listed for sale. Some of these lockboxes are electronic while others are not. SentriLock, LLC has created a new generation of simple and secure electronic lock boxes. Our REALTOR Lockbox is sleek, secure, affordable, and easy to use. The REALTOR Lockbox utilizes proven technology components that have met the demands of the banking, defense and satellite TV industries for years. Reliable, secure technology and a durable metal enclosure means the new Realtor Series of lockboxes will serve your organization well into the future. SentriLock, LLC designed the REALTOR Lockbox system to meet the access control needs of large and small Real Estate Associations alike. Easy administration and replacement procedures as well as affordable, flexible solutions are only a few of the benefits of our system. You can use the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site to edit and view information about lockboxes, listings, and SentriCards. You can use the SentriLock Card Utility to customize the settings on a lockbox and renew a SentriCard. Both the SentriLock Card Utility and REALTOR Lockbox Web Site interact with the SentriLock Server. Top 5 Things You Should Know About Your REALTOR Lockbox The REALTOR Lockbox Owner's Guide contains information about how to use your REALTOR Lockbox system. This section contains some of the more important information you need to know. 1. Don't write your PIN on your SentriCard!
2. When you release the shackle, it will completely detach from the lockbox, so hold onto the lockbox to prevent it from falling to the ground. 3. Don't leave your SentriCard on your car's dashboard or any surface that could get hot enough to melt it; don't bend the SentriCard excessively. 4. After removing your lockbox from a house, lock the keypad before storing it. 5. Your SentriCard only inserts about halfway into the lockbox. Do not try to force it further into the lockbox. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 5 The REALTOR Lockbox General Information and Warnings WARNING - FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY LEAD TO PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND DAMAGE TO THE LOCKBOX AND COULD VOID YOUR WARRANTY:
Do not operate or store the lockbox above 151 degrees F (66 degrees C) or below -22 degrees F (-30 degrees C). UL tested. Do not immerse the lockbox in water. Do not store or operate the lockbox in the presence of explosive vapors. Do not disassemble the lockbox as there are no user serviceable parts inside. Do not drop the lockbox onto hard surfaces as permanent damage may result. Use caution when releasing the shackle as the shackle is completely removable and the lockbox could fall causing personal injury or property damage. Do not attempt to recharge the battery as doing so may result in fire or explosion. Do not dispose of the battery in a fire as it may explode. Check your local codes for proper lithium battery disposal regulations. Do not carry unpackaged batteries in your pocket or purse as metal objects could cause a short circuit and thereby cause bodily injury or property damage. Do not immerse the battery in water. Lithium is highly reactive with water and immersion could cause an explosion or fire. Warranty All of SentriLock's REALTOR Lockboxes come with a two year warranty. The warranty provides 100%
coverage for the first year and 80% coverage for the second year. Warranty information varies from Association to Association. An extended warranty may also be available. Agents and Brokers can contact the Association for more information. Association Administrators can refer to their SentriLock contract for warranty information. Please process all warranty claims through your Association. If you are unsure whether a particular type of failure is covered, contact SentriLock Support to discuss the nature of the failure and they will advise you on whether or not it is a covered type of failure. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 6 Security The REALTOR Lockbox SentriLock designed your REALTOR Lockbox to provide a reasonable level of deterrence in regards to theft of its contents. As with any security device it is important to realize that no device can guarantee that someone with sufficient means or time cannot gain access to the contents of the lockbox. SentriLock designed the lockbox to be a less attractive target than more conventional means of unauthorized entry into the home. Weather Protection Your REALTOR Lockbox has been carefully engineered to provide a long life and require little maintenance. Since the lockbox is an electronic device and operates in the harsh outdoor environment, there are several important things you can do to help protect the lockbox and ensure its long life. The lockbox is weather resistant but not water proof. Immersing the unit in water or placing the unit in such a way where water can accumulate inside the unit will cause premature failure. Always install the lockbox such that the shackle end is up. Coastal Areas In coastal areas, SentriLock recommends that you periodically clean the outside of the lockbox to remove the accumulation of salt deposits. Salt spray will hasten corrosion of the metal parts of the lockbox. Clean with a mild detergent and a damp sponge or cloth. Never use solvents to clean the exterior of the lockbox. Lubrication In normal use there should not be a need to lubricate any of the moving parts of the lockbox. Lubricants attract dust and dirt and can cause operational problems at low temperatures. Battery The REALTOR Lockbox uses an internal lithium battery. The battery in an NXT series lockbox should last between 5 and 6 years of normal operation. To preserve the battery's life, you should lock the keypad when you store or transport the lockbox. Leaving your SentriCard in the card slot on your lockbox will also shorten the battery's life. We recommend using your SentriCard to access and program your lockboxes. Do not store your SentriCard in the card slot on the lockbox. When you need to replace the battery, you will need a #2 Phillips screw driver to remove the screws. If you do not have one of these tools, you may be able to borrow them from your Association. For more information and instructions on replacing the battery, see the Replacing the Battery section in this guide. To find out the series and firmware of your lockboxes, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20. Lockbox Storage When your lockbox is not in use, it is important to remember that the lockbox keypad is active and the keypad backlight consumes considerable power when illuminated. You should be careful to store the lockbox such that there is nothing resting against the keypad nor is the lockbox likely to move in transit causing undesired keypad backlight activation. For best results, either activate the Auto Lock Keypad on Shackle Release The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 7 The REALTOR Lockbox setting or hold down the ENT key for several seconds when entering the shackle release function. When you hold down the ENT key, the keypad lights will blink after the lockbox locks the keypad. The keypad lock puts the lockbox keypad to sleep thus any undesired or unexpected key presses will not run the battery down. The keypad lock is automatically deactivated when anyone inserts a SentriCard into the lockbox. For more information about the Auto Lock Keypad on Shackle Release setting, see the Agent Default Lockbox Settings topic in the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site Reference Guide. SentriCard Care and Use The electronic SentriCard used by the REALTOR Lockbox system contains system identification data about the user accessing the lockbox. SentriLock stores this data on an electronic "chip" embedded in the card. The security chip is immune to magnetic fields and is resistant to static electricity. Like your ATM or credit card, with proper care your SentriCard will provide a long service life. Some basic rules will ensure your card will function reliably:
Do not bend the card excessively Keep away from extreme heat as the card plastic may melt and make it physically impossible to insert in the lockbox or card reader. This includes the heat of an enclosed car during the summer. Do not tamper with the gold contacts or apply voltages to the card. Do not attempt to bypass the security features of the card. The card has integral tamper detection circuitry and logic that will permanently disable the card if such tampering is attempted. Use care when inserting the card in a lockbox or card reader. The card will only insert about halfway into the lockbox or card reader. Do not attempt to insert a damaged or warped card into the lockbox or card reader. Do not force the card into the lockbox or card reader. When inserting the card into the lockbox or card reader, the gold contacts always face up and the arrows on the card always point in the direction of the device. Remember the card only goes in about halfway. Tip: When you insert your SentriCard into a lockbox that is hanging on a door, simply swing the lockbox up horizontally and insert the card from the side. This saves having to bend down as far to insert the card. When the card reader is accessing data from your SentriCard it will illuminate a light. When the lockbox is accessing data from your SentriCard, it will illuminate the CARD light. Do not remove your SentriCard until the light has gone out. FOR SECURITY REASONS - NEVER WRITE YOUR PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (PIN) ON THE CARD!!!!
Key Storage The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 8 The REALTOR Lockbox SentriLock designed the REALTOR Lockbox to easily store approximately 5 "Kwikset" style house keys in the Key Vault. It may be possible to store more or fewer keys depending on key size and shape. Do not attach key rings or strings to any keys that you place in the Key Vault. To prevent jamming, never force the Key Vault closed. Try to hang the lockbox as close to vertically as you can. If you tilt or hang the lockbox horizontally, a key might slide to the side and prevent the Key Vault door from closing properly. When closing the Key Vault door, press until you hear or feel a positive "click" indicating the latch mechanism is fully engaged with the key door. Shackle The REALTOR Lockbox's removable shackle allows you to attach the lockbox to a fixed object such as a door handle. A large internal latch in the lockbox retains the shackle in the housing making it difficult to remove by force. To ensure the shackle will release properly, be sure to do the following:
Never pull down on the lockbox while trying to release the shackle. Lifting up slightly on the lockbox will remove the weight of the lockbox from the shackle and ensure that you can remove the shackle properly. If the shackle will not release, compress the shackle slightly by pressing inward gently and then issue the release command while holding the shackle in the compressed state. Do not press too hard as this will stall the latching mechanism. In extreme cold, it may not be possible to release the shackle until the temperature rises. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN RELEASING THE SHACKLE. BE SURE YOU ARE HOLDING ONTO THE BODY OF THE LOCKBOX OTHERWISE THE LOCKBOX MAY DROP TO THE GROUND CAUSING INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. SentriLock keyed the shackle in such a way that allows you to insert it either way into the lockbox. Be sure to press the shackle into place until you hear or feel a positive "click". This ensures that the internal latch has fully engaged with the shackle. FAILING TO ENSURE POSITIVE LATCHING COULD CAUSE THE LOCKBOX TO DROP TO THE GROUND CAUSING INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. What do I need to begin using my REALTOR Lockbox?
Before you begin to use your REALTOR Lockbox, you may need access to the following items:
SentriCard: You will use a SentriCard and PIN to access and customize lockboxes. You received your SentriCard during the initial conversion to the REALTOR Lockbox system. If you do not have a SentriCard, contact your Association. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 9 The REALTOR Lockbox Lockbox: For use on your listings. You will need a SentriCard and PIN to operate a lockbox. This includes accessing the Key Vault on a lockbox. PIN: You will use a SentriCard and PIN to operate the lockboxes in your Association. This includes accessing the Key Vault. During the initial conversion to your REALTOR Lockbox system, SentriLock will create your SentriCard and PIN. If you would like to change your PIN, see "How to Change Your PIN" on page 61. SentriLock ID and Password: You will need a SentriLock ID and password to renew your SentriCard, access the SentriLock Card Utility and access the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site. Your SentriLock ID and Password may be similar to the id and password you use to log into your MLS system. You can find your SentriLock ID and Password on the Card Carrier sheet. If you would like to change your password, see
"How to Change Your Password" on page 67. SentriLock Card Utility and Card Reader: The SentriLock Card Utility is a program you install on your computer. The card reader connects to your computer. The card reader allows the SentriLock Card Utility and your SentriCard to communicate. You can use the SentriLock Card Utility and card reader to renew your SentriCard, customize lockboxes, and change your PIN. Your office or Association may have a computer with the SentriLock Card Utility and card reader for you to use. If you work from your home or if it isn't convenient to access the card reader at your office or Association, you may consider purchasing your own card reader. Access to the Internet: you will need Internet access to use the SentriLock Card Utility. You also need a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, to access the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site. Your office or Association may have a computer with access to the Internet for their agents to use. You Need a Few Codes The What do I Need to Begin Using my REALTOR Lockbox? section mentioned that you need a SentriLock ID, password and PIN. In addition to these codes, you will use a variety of other codes in conjunction with your lockboxes. The following instructions will guide you through finding and using the following:
Call Before Showing Code Contractor Codes and 1 Day Codes Homeowner Do Not Disturb Code Shackle Code The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 10 The REALTOR Lockbox When you received your SentriCard, you also received a Card Carrier sheet. The Card Carrier sheet contains your SentriLock ID, password, and PIN. The Card Carrier sheet also contains your contractor codes, shackle release code, homeowner do not disturb code and call before showing code. Figure 1 Card Carrier Sheet Call Before Showing Code (CBS Code) The call before showing code (CBS code) is an additional code you may need to enter before you can access the Key Vault of a lockbox. Not all lockboxes use a CBS code. A listing Agent may choose to use a CBS code The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 11 The REALTOR Lockbox to ensure that he / she knows about any showings prior to the actual showing date and time. You can find your CBS code on the Card Carrier sheet and on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. You can use the following instructions to access the Key Vault of a lockbox that requires a CBS code:
1. Insert your SentriCard into a lockbox. The lockbox will display the CODE light. Enter your PIN and press ENT. Note: your lockboxes will not require 1 day code and contractor code users to enter a CBS code. In addition, the lockbox will not require the lockbox owner or their team to use a CBS code. 2. When the lockbox displays the READY light, remove your SentriCard or press FUNC +
3 + ENT. If the lockbox requires a CBS code, it will display the CODE light. Enter the CBS code and press ENT. The lockbox will open the Key Vault. To enable the use of a CBS code on a single lockbox, you can use Customize a Lockbox in the SentriLock Card Utility. To enable the CBS code, check the Always Require Call Before Showing Code check box on the Custom Lockbox Settings window. For information about customizing a lockbox, see "How to Customize a Lockbox" on page 43. If you want to enable CBS codes on all of your lockboxes, you can check the Always Require Call Before Showing Code check box on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. If you use NXT series lockboxes with firmware version 22.22 or greater, you can use FUNC + 6 + 9 + ENT to enable CBS mode. To find the series and firmware version your lockboxes use, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20. In addition to using the static CBS code from the Card Carrier sheet or Agent Default Lockbox Settings window, you can generate dynamic CBS codes. Dynamic CBS codes are good for a single day. Dynamic CBS codes provide the security of giving time limited access to the key without the hassle of having to visit your lockbox to change codes. For more information about both static CBS codes and dynamic CBS codes, see What is a Call Before Showing Code in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilock.com/lbs/faq/cbscode.htm You'll need your SentriLock ID and Password to access the SentriLock FAQ page. Contractor Codes and 1 Day Codes During the sale of a home, Agents may find it helpful to assist home buyers and sellers with scheduling work that may need to be done on the property. Your REALTOR Lockbox has the unique ability to make it easy to control contractor access to the Key Vault. When you turn on contractor mode, anyone with a contractor code can access the Key Vault of a lockbox without a SentriCard. You can find your contractor codes on the Card Carrier sheet and on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. Before you can use a contractor code, you must turn on contractor mode. To turn on contractor mode:
The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 12 The REALTOR Lockbox 1. Insert your SentriCard into a lockbox. The lockbox will display the CARD LIGHT THEN CODE LIGHT. Enter your PIN and press ENT. 2. Using the keypad on the lockbox, enter FUNC + 6 + 1+ ENT. The lockbox will display the READY light. The lockbox is now in contractor mode. To use a contractor code to access the lockbox, press and hold the ENT key on the keypad. When the keypad lights up, release the ENT key and enter the contractor code followed by ENT. If you've entered a valid code, the Key Vault will open. The lockbox records the use of contractor codes in the Audit Log. You can use the Lockbox Access Log window to view the Audit Log. For more information, see How can I Find out who Accessed my Lockboxes in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilocic.com/lbs/faq/lockboxacceess.htm You'll need your SentriLock ID and Password to access the SentriLock FAQ page. In addition to using contractor codes, you can generate 1 day codes. Anyone can use a 1 day code to access the Key Vault of a lockbox without the use of a SentriCard. Unlike contractor codes, 1 day codes are good for a single day of your choosing. 1 day codes provide the security of giving time limited access to the key without the hassle of having to visit your lockbox to change codes. For more information about 1 day codes, see 1 Day Codes in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilock.com/lbs/faq/1daycodes.htm Note: when you remove the shackle from a lockbox, you may turn off contractor mode. With contractor mode off, you cannot use a contractor code to open the Key Vault. If your Association uses NXT series lockboxes with firmware version 22.22 or greater, you can check the Don't Clear Contractor Mode on Shackle Release check box on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window to keep contractor mode turned on after you release the shackle. To find out what firmware version your lockboxes use, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 16. Homeowner Do Not Disturb Code The homeowner do not disturb code is a code that a homeowner can enter into the lockbox to temporarily deny access to their home. You can find your do not disturb code on the Card Carrier sheet and in the Homeowner DND Code field on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. If you choose to give your homeowner a do not disturb code, they can use the following instructions to enable do not disturb:
1. On the lockbox keypad press and hold the ENT key. This will "wake up" the lockbox. 2. When the lockbox lights up the keypad, enter the following commands on the keypad:
FUNC + 4 + Your DND Code + ENT If the lockbox displays a steady DND light, you have enabled do not disturb and temporarily denied access to The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 13 The REALTOR Lockbox the lockbox. If you entered an incorrect code, the lockbox flashes the ERROR light. Note: your Association uses the value in the Default DND Length field on the Edit Association window to determine how long the do not disturb period will last. The Homeowner Do Not Disturb (DND) group on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window displays the length of time the DND code will last. If the homeowner enables do not disturb and a showing Agent inserts their SentriCard and PIN into the lockbox; or a contractor enters a contractor code into the lockbox, the lockbox will display the DND light. Lockbox owners and their team members can access the Key Vault of their lockboxes while they are set to do not disturb. For owners and their team members, the DND light only warns them that the lockbox is set to do not disturb. In this situation, we advise you to contact the homeowner before entering the home. For more information about the do not disturb code, see How to Use a Do Not Disturb Code in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilock.com/lbs/faq/dndcode.htm You'll need your SentriLock ID and Password to access the SentriLock FAQ page. Shackle Code Agents and their team members do not need a shackle code to remove the shackle from the lockboxes they own or borrow. From time to time an Agent who owns a lockbox may ask another Agent to remove it from their listing. If the Agent is not a team member, they need a shackle code to remove the shackle from the lockbox. You can find your shackle code on the Card Carrier sheet and on the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. For more information about releasing the shackle from a lockbox, see "How to Release the Shackle" on page 31. Renewing Your SentriCard and Updating Your Lockbox Your SentriCard does two things: it contains authorization data that allows you to access Key Vaults of lockboxes when you show listings, and it moves important data between lockboxes and the SentriLock Server. By renewing your SentriCard periodically, you maintain both of those functions. The SentriLock system improves security by requiring you to renew authorization data on your SentriCard regularly to keep it active. Your Association sets your renewal period, so ask them how often to renew (if they have not already told you). You renew your SentriCard by inserting it into a smart card reader attached to a computer with Internet access. See "How to Renew Your SentriCard" on page 62 for details. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 14 The REALTOR Lockbox Renewing early and often will not harm your SentriCard, and we recommend it to improve access log reporting for all members of your Association. Renewing early is like topping the "gas tank," assuring you always have the maximum amount of time remaining on your SentriCard. This reduces your chance of accidentally "running out of gas" by forgetting to renew before your SentriCard expires. Allowing your SentriCard to expire does not permanently harm the SentriCard, but it prevents you from opening lockboxes until you renew your SentriCard again. Each lockbox you own stores several settings that control how the lockbox operates (for example: contractor codes; homeowner do not disturb code). The SentriLock Server also stores a separate copy of these settings. When you need to change the settings in one of your lockboxes, you begin by changing the settings on the SentriLock Server. You do this from your personal computer by logging in to the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site with the SentriLock Card Utility. After you change settings on the SentriLock Server, you renew your SentriCard, and then insert your SentriCard into your lockbox. The lockbox reads the changes from your SentriCard, and illuminates its CODE light after it finishes updating its settings (this takes just a few seconds). In addition to transferring lockbox setting changes, your SentriCard may exchange the following types of information with the SentriLock Server when you renew:
New lockbox ownership: if you have taken ownership of one or more lockboxes by being the first person to insert your SentriCard into them, your SentriCard will send records of this to the SentriLock Server. For more information, see "How to Take Ownership of Your Lockbox" on page 31. Lockbox ownership transfer: to transfer ownership of a lockbox to or from another agent, you follow a procedure similar to changing the settings in a lockbox. You begin by logging in to the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site with the SentriLock Card Utility and entering commands to set up the transfer. You and the other agent renew your SentriCards, and then you update the lockbox with its new ownership information by inserting your SentriCards into the lockbox in turn. For more information, see Transfer Ownership of a Lockbox in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilock.com/lbs/faq/transferownership.htm Lockbox access logs: each time you access a lockbox, e.g., to open a Key Vault, the lockbox writes a record of that access to your SentriCard. Later, when you renew your SentriCard, the SentriLock Card Utility detects this lockbox access information and prompts you for permission to send it to the SentriLock Server. In general, you should grant this permission each time the SentriLock Card Utility asks for it. This access information includes a list of the lockboxes your SentriCard accessed; and the date and time of each access. The SentriLock Server collects similar information from all of your fellow agents as they renew their SentriCards, and sorts it into comprehensive access logs for your lockboxes. Agent team changes: if another agent wants to give you ownership privileges over his or her lockboxes, that agent nominates you to be a member of his or her agent team. To accept the nomination and become a member of that agent's team, you renew your The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 15 The REALTOR Lockbox SentriCard. Whenever you use the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site or SentriLock Card Utility to change your information on the SentriLock Server, you need to renew your SentriCard. You may also need to update your lockboxes, as the above examples show. From time to time your Association may change settings that affect its members. For example, your Association may change the SentriCard renewal period. You receive these changes from your Association by renewing your SentriCard. After making such a change, your Association may ask you to renew your SentriCards sooner than would otherwise be necessary, so you receive the new settings quickly. You may also use your SentriCard to update the internal clock in your lockboxes. The lockbox needs to keep accurate time because many functions on the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site depend on it (for example, the Default Access Time Matrix window). Each lockbox comes from the factory with its clock already set to the correct time, and it should maintain accurate time for the life of the battery. When you need to change the lockbox battery, you should reset the lockbox clock to the correct time. For more information, see Setting the Lockbox Clock in the SentriLock FAQ at this URL:
http://lockbox.sentrilock.com/lbs/faq/clock.htm As you can see, renewing your SentriCard early and often is not just a chore; it transmits vital information for you and your entire Association, helping you to work more efficiently. Lockbox Ownership and Broker Sharing Lockbox Ownership and Broker Sharing tell SentriLock who can have ownership privileges to the lockboxes in your Association. Your Association used the items in the Lockbox Ownership drop-down list on the Edit Association window to determine who owns the lockboxes in your Association. The following section will provide you with more information:
Lockbox Ownership Broker Sharing Lockbox Ownership Your Association determines the lockbox ownership model used in your Association. There are five lockbox ownership models. You can check with your Association to determine what ownership model they selected. Agent Agents purchase lockboxes from the Association. The lockbox uses the Agent's contractor codes, do not disturb codes and other settings from the Agent Default Lockbox Settings window. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 16 The REALTOR Lockbox Agents maintain ownership of lockboxes. Agents can transfer ownership of their lockboxes to other Agents. If your Association uses NXT series lockboxes with firmware version 22.22 or greater, an Agent's team members can borrow their lockboxes. When an Agent borrows a lockbox, it uses their codes and settings. For more information, see "How to Borrow a Lockbox"
on page 42. To find out what series and firmware version the lockboxes in your Association use, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20. The Agent lockbox ownership model does not use Broker Sharing. For information about Broker Sharing, see "Broker Sharing" on page 19. Association Broker Distribution The Association maintains ownership of lockboxes. The Association distributes lockboxes to their brokers who then share them with their Agents. The Broker who takes ownership of the lockbox becomes the authorized user. The Broker cannot transfer ownership of the lockboxes.

To find out what series and firmware version the lockboxes in your The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 18 The REALTOR Lockbox Association use, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20. The Broker/Agent lockbox ownership model uses Broker Sharing. For information about Broker Sharing, see "Broker Sharing" on page 19. Broker Sharing If your Association uses Broker Sharing, Brokers can authorize the Agents in their company to use their lockboxes. Broker Sharing allows the Broker or Association to retain ownership of the lockbox, while at the same time allowing the Agent to use the lockbox as if they were the lockbox owner. Agents can assign their Broker's lockboxes to their listings. Agents can also customize their Broker's lockboxes. Here are a few more advantages of Broker Sharing:
Agents do not need to purchase and store their own lockboxes. Agents can borrow lockboxes from their Broker for use on their listings. Agents do not need a shackle release code to remove the shackle from a lockbox. If a Broker has more than one office, any Agent in any office can use the Broker's lockboxes. Broker Sharing also works across Associations. All of the Broker's offices in any Association can use the lockboxes. When an office uses Broker Sharing, Agents may be able to use the Lockboxes window to view all of the Broker's lockboxes. Brokers can determine if their Agents can view all or some of their lockboxes. If an Agent can view all of a Broker's lockboxes, the Lockboxes window will display all of the lockboxes owned by the Broker. Alternatively, Brokers may decide to allow Agents to view only those lockboxes that the Agent assigned to their listing. Brokers can use the radio buttons in the Show All Lockboxes field on the Add / Edit Company Broker window to determine if an Agent has access to all lockboxes or just the lockboxes they assigned to their listings. For more information, see the Add / Edit Company Broker section in the REALTOR Lockbox Web Site Reference Guide. If an Agent plans to use their Broker's lockbox on their listing, here are a few things to keep in mind:
The Agent should assign the lockbox to their listing. For instructions, see "How to Assign a Lockbox to a Listing" on page 40. If the Broker checked the Agents can only see lockboxes and access logs that are assigned to their own listings radio button, an Agent must assign the lockbox their listing. If the Agent does not assign the lockbox to their listing, they won't be able to view access information on the Lockbox Access Log or Access Report. The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 19 The REALTOR Lockbox If your Association uses NXT series lockboxes with firmware version 22.22 or greater, an Agent can borrow their Broker's lockboxes. When an Agent borrows a lockbox, it uses the Agent's codes and settings. For more information, see "How to Borrow a Lockbox"
on page 42. To find out what series and firmware version the lockboxes in your Association use, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20. Note: if a Broker has offices in more than one Association and both Associations use the REALTOR Lockbox system, the Agents from each Association may be able to use any of the Broker's lockboxes. This means an Agent from Association A could use lockboxes from Association A or Association B. SentriLock refers to this as Cross Association Broker Lockbox Sharing. For more information, contact SentriLock Support. How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware Revision At SentriLock we continually strive to improve your REALTOR Lockbox. As we add features, often requested by customers, the series and firmware of a lockbox may change. The series and firmware in a REALTOR Lockbox tells it what features are available and how to respond to various commands. Every REALTOR Lockbox has a series and firmware version number. Generally, all of the lockboxes in your Association will use the same series and firmware version. The NXT series lockboxes use firmware version of 22.22 or greater. Some of the features mentioned in this guide only apply to lockboxes with a certain series and / or firmware versions. This guide will indicate when a feature applies to particular series or firmware version. Use the instructions below to determine your lockbox series and firmware version. Finding Your Series and Firmware version The sticker on the back of a lockbox gives you the series number and firmware version number. Above the bar code and to the right, you'll see Rev and Version. If the Rev number is 20A or greater, you're using an NXT series lockbox. If the Rev version is less than 20A, you're using an R series lockbox.

Before you can use an unassigned lockbox, you need to take ownership it. When you take ownership of a lockbox, your SentriCard automatically transfers information from your Agent Default Lockbox Settings, such as shackle code, contractor codes, and call before showing code to the lockbox. This allows you to quickly and easily begin using a new lockbox. Note: you will need your REALTOR Lockbox, SentriCard, card reader, and SentriLock Card Utility to complete the following instructions. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU INSERT YOUR SENTRICARD FIRST) DO IT AS SOON AS YOU RECEIVE YOUR NEW LOCKBOX!
1. To take ownership of a lockbox, insert your SentriCard into the lockbox. The lockbox will make a series of sounds as it loads your Agent settings, Association settings, and ownership information into the lockbox.

This means the lockbox will use their contractor codes, do not disturb code, etc. Team members can also generate 1 day codes and dynamic call before showing codes (CBS codes) for the lockboxes they borrow. There are two ways a team member can borrow a lockbox:
Keypad Function: a team member can insert their SentriCard into a lockbox and enter FUNC + 6 + 2 + ENT. This tells the lockbox to load the team member's codes and settings. When the lockbox displays the READY light, the team member has borrowed the lockbox. After a team member borrows a lockbox, they must renew their SentriCard. The lockbox will continue to use the team member's codes and settings until the lockbox owner or the team member uses FUNC + 6 + 5 + ENT to clear the team member's codes and settings from the lockbox. After you clear the team member's codes and settings, the lockbox will return to using the lockbox owner's codes and settings.

The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 45 How to Replace the Battery The REALTOR Lockbox The REALTOR Lockbox NXT uses two internal lithium batteries. The battery in the NXT series lockbox should last between 5 and 6 years under normal operation. Extended operation at high temperatures or excessive mechanical cycling of the latching mechanism may shorten battery life. The two blue CR123A batteries, that are factory installed when you receive your new or reconditioned lockbox, are specially formulated to last longer and to operate in much colder conditions than batteries that can be purchased at most consumer electronics stores and office supply stores. If battery life and operating at cold temperature are a concern we recommend purchasing our batteries through our on line store. Sentrilocks guarantee of performance at the specified temperatures only applies if Sentrilock supplied batteries are used. Note: To preserve the battery life, you should lock the keypad when you store or transport the lockbox. Leaving your SentriCard in the card slot of your lockbox will shorten the battery life. We recommend using your SentriCard to access and program your lockboxes. Do not store your SentriCard in the card slot of the lockbox. When the battery is low, the lockbox will alert the lockbox owner or their card team members. When the lockbox owner or card team members insert their SentriCard into the lockbox, it will flash the MESSAGE light 20 times. In addition, it will make a series of beeps. The lockbox will continue to operate with a low battery; it is imperative to replace the batteries as soon as possible. The lockbox uses two lithium type CR123A batteries. This battery type is available at most consumer electronics stores and office supply stores. Do not remove the old batteries until you have a replacement in hand. Also, do not carry unpackaged batteries in your pocket or purse as metal objects could cause a short circuit and thereby cause bodily harm or property damage. When replacing the battery, it is important to remember the lockbox has a memory backup circuit that will retain the lockbox settings and timekeeping system while you replace the batteries. This memory backup circuit will only operate for a few minutes after you remove the batteries. The lockbox owner or their card team member can use the following instructions to replace the batteries. 1. Insert your SentriCard into the lockbox, and enter your PIN and ENT. 2. Remove your SentriCard to open the lockbox to access the battery cover. 3. Use a #2 Phillips-head screw driver to remove both screws that hold on the battery cover (shown in illustration). 4. Replace both CR123A batteries following the polarity (+/-) symbols as indicated on the battery cover. Warning: Inserting batteries incorrectly will permanently damage the lockbox or the batteries may explode! Do not allow the lockbox to close with the batteries removed!
The REALTOR Lockbox Owners Guide Owners Guide 46 5. Replace the battery cover and tighten the screw. The REALTOR Lockbox If you remove the batteries for more than a few minutes, or if the battery runs down completely, you may need to set the lockbox clock. For instructions, see "How to Set the Lockbox Clock" on page 48. To find out the series and firmware of your lockboxes, see "How to Determine Your Lockbox Series and Firmware version" on page 20 How to Set the LockBox Clock The REALTOR Lockbox system relies on the lockbox's internal clock to keep it synchronized with SentriLock Server. Keeping the lockbox and SentriLock Server synchronized insures that time-sensitive functions, such as do not disturb, work properly. Normally you will not need to set the lockbox's clock. You may suspect that your lockbox is out of sync with the SentriLock Server if one or more of the following is true:
You replaced the battery in the lockbox. During the replacement process, the lockbox was without a battery for longer than a few minutes. An Agent renewed their SentriCard. The Agent inserted their SentriCard into the lockbox and entered their PIN. The lockbox displayed the CARD and ERROR lights. This usually indicates that the Agent is using an expired SentriCard. However, the Agent just renewed their SentriCard. In this case, the SentriCard probably isn't expired. The Status column on the SentriCards window displays the status of a SentriCard. An Agent inserts their SentriCard into a lockbox and it displays the DND light. The Agent is certain that they or the homeowner did not enter a Do Not Disturb code into the lockbox. In addition, the Agent is accessing the lockbox within the times allowed by the Access Time Matrix or Default Access Time Matrix windows. To set the lockbox's clock, you must have the lockbox in your possession. As soon as you remove your SentriCard from the card reader, you must insert it into the lockbox. Only the lockbox owner or their card team member can set the lockbox's clock. Lockbox owner's and card team members can use the following instructions to set a lockbox clock. Note: if your Association uses NXT series lockboxes with firmware version 22.22 or greater, you may be able to use the lockbox and your SentriCard to set the lockbox's clock.
