Codelocks CL5000AT USB Data Manager
User Manual
Version 2.1.5.5
Main Features
This software is designed to be used with the Codelocks CL5000AT electronic lock and will allow CL5000AT users to upload and download data to a USB stick, which can then be transferred to and from the lock.
The CL5000AT’s audit trail data can be viewed using this software and can also be saved for management purposes. The information can then be exported to a text file or excel spreadsheet if required.
The lock’s parameters can also be programmed through this software and then transferred to the lock using a USB stick. It is also possible to reformat non-Codelocks USB sticks so that they can be used to transfer data to and from the CL5000AT.

Main Settings
From this page, you can change the general settings for your lock.
Daylight Saving Settings – It is important that this is correct as if it is not your codes will become an hour out of sync when DST comes into effect. Please make sure that this is turned off when the country the lock is in does not adhere to DST.
Lock Location – Write the location of your lock here.
Code Digit Length – You can decide the length of the codes allowed to be used for access. It is important to note that if a 4-digit code is used and the 6-digit option is selected, the code will not work regardless of whether it is in the user list or not.
Code Free Mode – If this is turned on codes will not be required to gain access.
Unlock Lock Time(s) – This setting changes the amount of time the lock remains open for after an authorized code is used.
Master and SubMaster Code – If you need to change your Master/SubMaster code enter the new code here. Your old MasterCode will still need to be used to upload the changes to the lock.
Locked/Unlocked Status – This allows you to choose if you would like the lock to flash blue when it is in an unlocked status. If this feature is turned on battery life will be significantly reduced.
Important: After you have made any changes in the Data Manager you will need to select the Save to USB.
User ID Settings
From this section, you can set up each user’s active periods in which they can use their code to gain access.
If a user requires access all the time, you will not need to enable the active period part of the page (right-hand side) as the lock will know that they always need access. But if for example, you wanted to set an active period of Mon – Sun from 09:00 to 17:00, you would need to enable the active period by checking the Enable checkbox on the right-hand side and setting up the parameters. See the user ID 003 in the below image as an example.
It is also possible to set all user’s access time periods at the same time using the section in the bottom right-hand corner. Make sure to select For All Users and Save to USB before uploading the changes to your lock.
Replacing your USB
If you lose or damage your USB stick, any standard USB stick may be used as a replacement. Please note that encrypted USB sticks will not function with the CL5010 AT locks/kits. You will need to activate any new USB sticks by following the steps below:
Connect an empty USB stick to the computer
Open the Codelocks Data Management Software
From the Tools menu, select Activate Codelocks Memory Stick
Select the memory stick to activate
Click Activate
Important
Please note that when you save your new settings (including User Codes), re-opening the USB stick with the software will not show the new settings. You will not be able to view these until those changes have been uploaded to the lock.
The time it takes to upload the new settings to the lock will vary. With large numbers of User Codes, especially if you have also set Active Periods for those User Codes, it is not uncommon for the upload process to take several minutes.
