Packaging & Contents
Each EDI-120 retrot control system is shipped in a custom designed box and packaging for
protection of the unit. It’s recommended to keep the box and packaging stored in a safe place. In
the unlikely event that the system needs to be returned to the JSI Factory, the packaging will help
prevent shipping damage and maintain warranty.
Each EDI-120 retrot control system includes all of the parts required to complete the retrot.
Parts included with the EDI-120 retrot control system:
• 10’ (3m) Belden 9829 (or equivalent) length of cable used to extend existing DMX cable(s).
• Two (2) 3-position breakaway connectors used to splice the existing DMX cable(s) to the
supplied DMX cable.
• Four (4) 1’ (30.5cm) extension ribbon cables used to extend the OEM P3, P4, P5 and P6
ribbon cables.
• 8’ (2.4m) #18 AWG green wire used to connect the EDI-120 retrot control system chassis to
earth ground.
• 5’ (1.5m) #18AWG yellow and brown wires used to connect the fan control wiring from the
OEM P1 connector to the fan SSR. Typical installations already contain the control wiring
within the OEM P1 connector wiring, and these wires are not required.
• 10’ (3m) yellow CAT 5e patch cable used to daisy-chain the DMX-A and DMX-B between
multiple EDI-120 retrot control systems. Only supplied when multiple EDI-120 retrot
control systems are purchased.

Installation
•
Disconnect (turn off) the power supply to the EDI Mark VII dimmer rack(s).
WARNING! Verify all power is disconnected (turned off) before proceeding.
Removal of the old EDI Control Module
• Remove the four (4) mounting screws securing the EDI Mark VII control
module.
• Carefully pull the control module forward until all of the rear wiring
connections are visible. Do not disconnect any wiring at this point.
• If you are not familiar with the EDI Mark VII control module electronics
and wiring, it is strongly advised that you take a few minutes to inspect
the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) wiring (P1 through P6). If
the cables aren’t already labeled, label them using a permanent marker
(Sharpie).
P1 contains the AC power supply conductors (Neutral, Phase A, Phase
B and Phase C) used to power the control module, as well as the low
voltage fan control wiring (positive DC voltage control and common).
Observe the location of the P1 connector and compare it to the location
of the P1 connector on the EDI-120 retrot. If the P1 connector is
located on the opposite side, refer to the installation of the new EDI-120
retrot system for details.
On some earlier versions of EDI Mark VII dimmer racks, the fan
control was sensed from the house control inputs, and the fan control
wiring does not come through the P1 connector. If this is the case, the
fan control will need to be rewired from the P1 connector to the fan
SSR. More information regarding this modication is provided in the
“Installation of the new EDI-120 retrot system” section of this manual.
P2 contains the eld wiring connections for DMX and analog control.
NOTE: The P2 connection is obsolete when the EDI-120 retrot control
module is installed, and all the eld wiring must be terminated
on the back of the EDI-120 retrot control module. Refer to the
installation of the new EDI-120 retrot system for more details.
P3 contains the PWM output control signals for dimmers 1 through 36.
P4 contains the PWM output control signals for dimmers 25 through 60.
P5 contains the PWM output control signals for dimmers 61 through 96.
P6 contains the PWM output control signals for dimmers 85 through 120.
• All of the internal OEM wiring must remain intact to complete the retrot.
Compare these connections to the ones on the back of the EDI-120
retrot control module. Do not disconnect any wiring until you are
completely satised with how easy this is going to be.
NOTE: Never pull directly on the wires to remove connectors.

• Disconnect the P1 power connector/cable. Carefully squeeze the
latches on each side of the connector together to release the connector
and then pull the connector out. Inspect the connector and the
termination of the wires in the connector. Be sure everything looks okay.
• Disconnect the P2 connector/cable. This cable will not be re-used on the
EDI-120 retrot, so once the old control module is removed, it should
be coiled up, wire-tied and carefully set aside inside the dimmer rack,
making sure it is isolated from any AC line voltage.
• Disconnect the P3, P4, P5 and P6 connectors/cables. Again, be sure
not to pull directly on the ribbon cable to remove the connector as this
may cause damage. Carefully pull the connectors straight out.
• The old control module should now be free and clear of all connections,
and can now be completely pulled out of the dimmer rack and set aside.
• With the old control module removed, it is a great opportunity to do
some preventative maintenance. The dimmer rack should be thoroughly
cleaned, vacuumed and sprayed out using compressed air. All of the
AC line and load connections should be inspected and tightened if
necessary.
• Inspect the fan blower and be sure it spins freely. If required,
replacement fans are available.
Installation of the new EDI-120 Retrofit Control System
• Remove your new EDI-120 retrot control system from the box.
• Take a look at the eld wiring connections on the back of the EDI-120
retrot. There is a connector for DMX-A input, a connector for DMX-A
thru, a connector for DMX-B input, a connector for DMX-B thru, a
connector for four (4) 0-10VDC analog inputs, a connector for dry
contact inputs and a connector for +12VDC to power peripheral devices.
All of the eld wiring terminates on these connectors.
• Refer to the “Control Input/Output Connections” section on page 11 and
12 for details.
• On the old EDI control module (Multi-Link), the DMX input came through
the P2 connector. Since this connection/cable is now obsolete, locate
the DMX input and thru (if applicable) cable(s) coming into the dimmer
rack from the eld. Once the cable(s) has been located, disconnect
it. Inspect the cable(s) and ensure it will be long enough to reach the
connectors on the EDI-120 retrot, once it is installed. Two (2) 3-position
breakaway connectors and a 10’ (3m) Belden 9829 (or equivalent)
length of cable is supplied for extending the cable(s) if it isn’t long
enough. The cable(s) can now be dressed out and terminated on the
DMX-A input and DMX-A thru (if applicable) breakaway connectors
provided. Be sure to isolate and protect all shield wires and comply with
standard RS-485 termination practices.
• On the old EDI control module, the 0-10VDC analog inputs came
through the P2 connector. Since this connection/cable is now obsolete,
locate the analog input cable(s) coming into the dimmer rack from
the eld. Note the EDI-120 retrot only has four (4) 0-10VDC analog
inputs, versus ten (10) on the old control module. Once the analog input
cable(s) have been located, disconnect them. If required, extend the
cables. The cable(s) can now be dressed out and terminated on the
analog input breakaway connector provided.

Page 7
If more than four (4) analog inputs are required, additional equipment may be necessary to
facilitate them. Consult the factory for options and further information.
• Dress out and terminate any applicable connections for the input/output contacts on the
breakaway connector provided.
• Dress out and terminate any applicable +12VDC power supply connections on the
breakaway connector provided.
• The intention is for the DMX input receptacle (5-pin male XLR) on the front of the EDI
dimmer rack to be connected to the DMX-B input on the EDI-120 retrot. To do this, the
existing wires connected to the XLR must be disconnected, and an applicable length of the
supplied 10’ (3m) Belden 9829 (or equivalent) cable must be reconnected to the XLR on one
end, and terminated on the DMX-B input breakaway connector provided on the other end.
Be sure to isolate and protect all shield wires and comply with standard RS-485 termination
practices.
Alternatively, the DMX-B input and thru connectors can be used for other purposes.
• Conrm all applicable eld wiring is terminated on the breakaway connectors provided. For
future reference, be sure all cables are labeled using a permanent marker (Sharpie).
• Inspect the OEM P3, P4, P5 and P6 ribbon cables and determine if they are long enough
to easily connect to the EDI-120 retrot. Four (4) 1’ (30.5cm) extension ribbon cables have
been provided to extend the OEM ribbon cables for ease of installation. When connecting,
be sure the OEM ribbon cable connector is fully seated in the provided extension ribbon
cable connector.
• An 8’ (2.4m) #18 AWG green wire has been provided for connection of earth ground to the
EDI-120 chassis. One end of the ground wire has a 0.250” female disconnect, and connects
to the male on the back of the EDI-120 retrot. Locate a place inside the dimmer rack
chassis to connect the other end of the ground wire. Cut the wire to length, dress it out and
connect (fasten) it to the dimmer rack chassis.
WARNING: Ensure chassis is connected to earth ground.
• On some earlier versions of EDI Mark VII dimmer racks, the fan control was sensed from the
house control inputs, and the fan control wiring does not come through the P1 connector. If
this is the case, the fan control will need to be rewired from the P1 connector to the fan SSR.
5’ (1.5m) #18AWG yellow and brown wires have been provided to implement fan control
from the EDI-120 retrot via the P1 connector to the fan SSR. For the yellow (fan control V+)
wire, the female pin on the one end inserts into pin 5 of the P1 connector and the other end
terminates to V+ on the fan SSR. For the brown (fan control V- (common)) wire, the female
pin on the one end inserts into pin 6 of the P1 connector and the other end terminates to V(common) on the fan SSR. Refer to page 10 for the P1 power connector pinout information.
• There are two (2) locations on the back of the EDI-120 retrot where the P1 power
connector/cable can be installed - one (1) on the right-hand side and one (1) on the left-hand
side. When looking at the EDI-120 from the rear view, the P1 connector is installed on the
left-hand side location (more common) by the factory. Have a look at which side the power
cable comes out in the dimmer rack and determine if the P1 connector needs to be moved to
the right-hand side location.

If the connector needs to be moved, follow the following procedure:
First, remove the ten (10) #4-40 x 1/4” mounting screws that fasten the
lid onto the EDI-120 chassis. Remove the lid and set it aside, along
with the screws. Remove the metal cover plate on right-hand side P1
location by unscrewing the two (2) #4-40 x 1/4” mounting screws. Set
the cover plate aside, along with the screws. Release the P1 power
connector by carefully squeezing the tabs on each side of the connector
together and pushing the connector back. Cut and remove the wire-tie
securing the cable to the EDI-120 chassis via the bridge lance located
on the front-side of the chassis. The P1 connector/cable can now be
moved to the right-hand side location. Neatly route the cable and then
clip the P1 connector into place. Be sure the P1 connector is fully
seated and secure. Use a wire-tie to secure the cable to the chassis –
there is a bridge lance located above the power supply on the front-side
of the chassis. Reinstall the cover plate over the P1 connector opening
on the left-hand side of the chassis. Reinstall the lid.
• A 10’ (3m) yellow CAT 5e patch cable is supplied to daisy-chain the
DMX-A and DMX-B between multiple EDI-120 retrot systems, in multirack installations and racks containing more than 120 dimmer circuits. If
applicable, route the cable into place.
• Everything should now we prepared and ready for nal installation of the
EDI-120 retrot.
• Put the EDI-120 retrot into a position where all the eld wiring and
OEM wiring can be plugged in.
• Connect (plug in) in the green ground wire onto the EDI-120 chassis
connector.
• If applicable, connect (plug in) in the yellow CAT 5e patch cable.
• Connect (plug in) the prepared DMX input and thru connectors.
• Connect (plug in) the prepared input/output contacts connector.
• Connect (plug in) the prepared analog input connector.
• Connect (plug in) the prepared +12VDC power supply connector.
• Connect (plug in) the OEM P1 power connector.
• Connect (plug in) the OEM P3, P4, P5 and P6 ribbon cable connectors.
• All of the eld wiring and OEM cables should now be connected
(plugged in).
• Be sure all connections are secure and fully seated.
• Slide the EDI-120 retrot along the guide rails and into place. Be sure
not to pinch any of the cables.
On some earlier versions of EDI Mark VII dimmer racks, the guide rail
opening for the EDI-120 retrot may be much narrower. If this is the
case, the guide rails will need to be removed. Once the guide rails are
removed, the EDI-120 retrot will need to held in place and secured
using the mounting screws provided.
• Secure the EDI-120 retrot using the four (4) #10-32 x 3/8” mounting
screws provided.

Turn on and test the new EDI-120 Retrofit System
• Connect (turn on) the power supply to the EDI Mark VII dimmer rack.
• Verify the operation of the system status LED indicators, LCD display
and programming switches.
• Refer to the programming section of this manual for system
conguration.
• Test the system thoroughly to ensure all wiring terminations are
functioning.
• Verify all of the dimmer control outputs have the correct phase
referencing. If a dimmer control output is patched to the incorrect phase
reference, the dimmer will not dim correctly and will go to full output at
around 1% DMX input. The factory conguration for EDI-120 retrot
systems is for 3-phase applications, with the dimmer phase reference
patch set at AABBCCAABBCC... For true single-phase applications
with the phases 180° out of phase from each other, set the default
(DEFAULT) menu phase patch to phase patch 2 (ØPATCH2). The
phase patch (Ø-PATCH) menu must be used to congure non-standard
applications or for single-phase applications with the phases 120° out of
phase from each other.
• Verify the fan blower is operating properly. The fan blower should turn
on with between 6-7% DMX or analog control - when DMX or analog
control drops below 6-7%, there is a 5 minute timeout on the fan blower
blower to ensure the dimmers have been cooled sufciently.

EEPROM
Memory Module
EEPROM Memory Module
All EDI-120 retrot control systems come equipped with a removable
EEPROM memory module located at the rear of the EDI-120 chassis. The
EEPROM memory module inserts into the on-board connector located at the
rear of the EDI-120 chassis. The EEPROM memory module is primarily used
to backup important conguration settings, and may be removed for safe
storage.
If a rmware update is required, Johnson Systems Inc. may supply an
EEPROM memory module with the latest rmware version. The rmware
EEPROM memory module can be inserted into connector, and the rmware
can be loaded into the microcontroller.
Refer to menu items “EEPROM”, “FW-LOAD”, “RESTORE” and “BACKUP”
on page 29 to 31 for further details.
NOTE: Be sure to “BACKUP” the EDI-120 when installation conguration is
complete.

System Status LED Indicators
Programming Switches
User Interface
EDI-120 retrot control systems are equipped with a
user interface. The user interface provides access to all
programming and conguration settings. System status is
easily visible on the LCD display and LED indicators. An
infrared LED allows for printout of all system conguration
settings when used with a hand held infrared printer (Johnson
System Inc., Part Number: JS-IP).
All of the programming is accomplished using four (4)
switches. Within a few minutes most users will nd the menu
structure very intuitive and easy to navigate. All conguration
settings are automatically stored in the on-board EEPROM.
LCD Display
The LCD display is capable of displaying 2 lines of 8
Characters. A backlight automatically comes on when activity
is sensed on the switches. The LCD contrast can be easily
adjusted for optimum viewing. Refer to menu item “LCD VIEW”
on page 32 for further details.
Programming Switches
The MENU UP/DOWN ( ) switches are used for navigating
through the various system conguration menu items. They
also allow for programming of other specic parameters within
a selected menu. Pressing and holding either switch will
speed up the scroll rate, which can be helpful to speed up the
conguration time.
The EXECUTE ( ) switch is normally used to select/enter a
menu item, advance forward within a selected menu item, or
toggle between parameters within a selected menu item.
The ESCAPE ( ) switch is normally used to back up within
a selected menu item one step at a time or exit the menu
completely.
NOTE: The programming switches can be locked out to
prevent inadvertent conguration changes. To toggle
between “LOCKED!!” and “UNLOCKED” press and
hold down the EXECUTE and then ESCAPE switches
at the same time for 4-5 seconds.
The RESET switch has two purposes. First, it allows for
quick exit from a menu item after a programming change and
automatically puts the system into normal run mode. Second, it
provides a soft reboot for the systems microcontroller.

System Status • LED Indicators
RUN (Green)
Illuminates when the power is on and the microcontroller status is in normal run mode. The LED
ashes once every 2 seconds when the system is in STANDBY mode.
ØA, ØB and ØC (Green)
Illuminates when the line voltage power is within the acceptable range of 100-130 VAC for each
phase and the zero-cross reference circuitry is functioning properly. The LED will ash slowly
(once per second) when an under-voltage state of less than 100 VAC is sensed and will ash
quickly (twice per second) when an over-voltage of greater than 130 VAC is sensed.
DMX A and DMX B (Yellow)
Illuminates when valid DMX is received on each of the inputs. Flashes when invalid DMX is
received.
ALARM
Illuminates and ashes twice per second when either a re or security alarm is sensed on each of
the inputs.
O/T
Illuminates and ashes twice per second when the microcontroller senses an internal overtemperature condition, or when an external over-temperature is sensed via the over-temperature
input, or when an external dimmer over-temperature is sensed.
System Status • LCD Display
When DMX is being received, the top line of the LCD display shows the active DMX MODE (“PTY
A”, “PTY B”, “MERGE”, “DMX A+B”, “2 ROOM” or “PATCH”). When DMX is not being received,
the top line of the LCD display shows “EDI-120”, unless the system is in standby mode, then
“STANDBY!” is displayed.
The bottom line of the LCD Display shows the current status of the system unless the system
conguration menu items are being accessed. Below are descriptions for each status indication.
NO RX!
Displayed when DMX is not being received on either input and the system is not in scene mode.
AXXXBXXX
Displayed when valid DMX is being received on one or both inputs and both inputs are not
terminated. “A” and “B” represent the DMX A and DMX B inputs while “XXX” represents the
number of channels being received in each packet of data. For example, if the system is receiving
512 channels on DMX B and DMX A is disconnected, the display will show “A000B512”.
XXX XXX
Same as above except the “A” and “B” is replaced with “ ” to indicate if one or both of the DMX
inputs are terminated. For example, if the system is receiving 48 channels on DMX A and 512
channels on DMX B, with only DMX A terminated, the display will show “ 048B512”. Refer to
menu items “DMXA TRM” and “DMXB TRM” on page 21 for further details.

7. DMX MODE Congure the mode of the on-board DMX protocol manager.
There are ve different mode settings for the DMX protocol manager.
Priority A (PTY A) and Priority B (PTY B) modes are intended for the implementation
of a backup DMX source. Priority A (PTY A) sets the DMX A input as the priority, and
ignores the DMX B input when the DMX A input is active. Priority B (PTY B) sets the
DMX B input as the priority, and ignores the DMX A input when the DMX B input is
active.
Merge (MERGE) mode combines both DMX inputs with highest-takes-precedence
(HTP) operation. Merge mode allows for simultaneous DMX control of the dimmers
from both inputs, and is the default for the system.
Dual Universe DMX (DMX A+B) mode provides a method to combine two universes
of DMX within one system. It permits two independent DMX sources to be active on
the DMX inputs, with each having a separate DMX start address. The DMX inputs are
merged and DMX-B is offset by the number of DMX-A channels programmed via the
ADDRESS menu (see ADDRESS - above for further details). This feature is typically
used when a system is at the end of one DMX universe (DMX-A) and the beginning of
another (DMX-B).
Two Room (2 ROOM) mode enables the room (A or B) assignment for each of the
dimmer outputs via the 2 RM SET menu.
PTY A Press EXECUTE to toggle into Priority A (PTY A) mode.
PTY B Press EXECUTE to toggle into Priority B (PTY B) mode.

NOTE: DMX O/P must be set to OFFSET mode for this menu to function.
www.johnsonsystems.com
Page 21
8. 2 RM SET Set the two room assignment for each of the dimmer outputs.
This menu is used to assign each of the 120 dimmer outputs to room “A” or room
“B”. Dimmer outputs assigned to room “A” are controlled via the DMX-A input.
Dimmer outputs assigned to room “B” are controlled via the DMX-B input. This
creates separation within the dimmer rack and makes a single dimmer rack function
as though it is two independent dimmer racks. When used in conjunction with the DC
PATCH menu, the dimmer rack can be congured for sequential DMX control of two
rooms, even if the dimmer room assignments are not sequential.
DMX MODE must be set for 2 ROOM operation for this menu to function.
Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and activate 2 RM SET mode.
D 001 A Displays the dimmer (DIM) output (01) and the room assignment (A).
D 120 A Press MENU ( ) to select a different dimmer output from 01 to 120.

Press ESCAPE or RESET to exit the menu.
Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.
NOTE: Scene mode (SCENESET) will only activate/control dimmers assigned to
room “A”.
NOTE: DMX O/P must be set to OFFSET mode for this menu to function.
9. DMXA TRM Enable or disable termination on the DMX A input.
Activates and deactivates a 120Ω termination resistor. DMX termination is indicated
on the LCD display when DMX is being received. When the DMX A input is not
terminated (DISABLED) the LCD display will read AXXXBXXX. When the DMX A
input is terminated (ENABLED) the LCD display will read XXXBXXX.
ENABLED Press EXECUTE to toggle termination from ENABLED to DISABLED.
DISABLED Press EXECUTE to toggle termination from DISABLED to ENABLED.
Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.
NOTE: Ensure only the last (end-of-line) DMX receiving device is terminated!
10. DMXB TRM Enable or disable termination on the DMX B input.
Activates and deactivates a 120Ω termination resistor. DMX termination is indicated
on the LCD display when DMX is being received. When the DMX B input is not
terminated (DISABLED) the LCD display will read AXXXBXXX. When the DMX B
input is terminated (ENABLED) the LCD display will read AXXX XXX.
ENABLED Press EXECUTE to toggle termination from ENABLED to DISABLED.
DISABLED Press EXECUTE to toggle termination from DISABLED to ENABLED.
Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.
NOTE: Ensure only the last (end-of-line) DMX receiving device is terminated!
11. DMX O/P Congure the on-board DMX protocol manager for offset or patch mode..
OFFSET mode is typically used for the majority of systems, and is the factory default.
OFFSET mode refers to the DMX start address, with each of the 120 dimmer (PWM)
outputs addressed sequentially from the DMX start address.
PATCH mode provides full exibility for addressing each of the 120 dimmer (PWM)
outputs. Each of the 120 dimmer (PWM) outputs can be patched to (controlled from)
any DMX input channel from 001 to 512, from either or both of the DMX A and DMX B
inputs simultaneously.
With DMX patch mode activated, any conguration within the ADDRESS, DMX
MODE, 2 RM SET and DC PATCH menus is ignored, and the DMX patch congured
within the DMXA PAT and DMXB PAT menus takes precedence.
When using the system in DMX patch mode, it is strongly recommended to printout the
patch using a hand held infrared printer (Johnson System Inc., Part Number: JS-IP).
www.johnsonsystems.com 21
Page 22
Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and congure the DMX mode.
DISABLED This menu is disabled to help prevent inadvertent changes. Proceed to enable.
ENABLED Press and hold MENU ( ) and MENU ( ) at the same time for 4-5 seconds.
OFFSET Press EXECUTE to toggle the DMX mode from OFFSET to PATCH.
PATCH Press EXECUTE to toggle the DMX mode from PATCH to OFFSET.
Press ESCAPE or RESET to exit the menu.
Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.
12. DMXA PAT Patch the 120 dimmer (PWM) outputs to any DMX A input channel.
There are two ways to congure the DMX patch. Each of the 120 dimmer (PWM)
outputs can be manually (MANUAL) patched to a DMX input channel, or patched in
blocks (BLOCK) of sequential dimmers and DMX channels.
For MANUAL patching, each of the dimmers are patched individually. First, the
dimmer (DIM) output is selected, and then any DMX input channel from 001 to 512 is
patched to the selected dimmer.
For BLOCK patching, a sequential range of dimmers are patched to a sequential
range of DMX channels. First, the rst dimmer number (DIM#) in the block is selected,
then the DMX A start address (DMXA) for the block is selected, and then nally the
number of dimmers (#DIM) in the block is selected. For example, if DIM# is 001, DMX
is 001, and #DIM is 120, then all of the dimmer outputs, 001 thru 120 are addressed
sequentially to DMX channels 001 thru 120. For a more complex example, if DIM# is
061, DMX is 321, and #DIM is 030, then dimmer outputs 061 thru 091 are addressed
sequentially to DMX channels 321 thru 351.
Using a combination of MANUAL and BLOCK patching methods can speed up
conguration. Typically, a BLOCK of dimmers is rst patched and then edited using
the MANUAL patch.
The DMX patch should be cleared (CLEAR) before conguring the patch. Clearing
the patch ensures all previously congured patch data is cleared (erased).
When DMXA PAT is utilized in conjunction with DMXB PAT, each of the 120 dimmer
(PWM) outputs can be patched to (controlled from) any DMX input channel from 001
to 512, from either or both of the DMX A and DMX B inputs simultaneously.
If a dimmer is patched to both DMX A and DMX B input channels, the DMX levels are
merged and highest-takes-precedence (HTP).
Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and congure the DMX A patch.
Press MENU ( ) to scroll through and select the patching method.
MANUAL? Press EXECUTE to patch each of the dimmers manually (MANUAL).

Important Hard-key Information
EDI-120 retrot control systems may be shipped with an invalid hard-key code of 000000. A valid hard-key must
be entered before the run time (RTIME) counter reaches 2,160 hours / 90 days. If the run time expires without a
valid hard-key, the LCD display will show a runtime counter error (RTC ERR!) and all dimmer control outputs will
be disabled.
Refer to menu item “HARD-KEY” on page 28 of the user manual for detailed instructions on how to enter a valid
hard-key code. Be sure to record and le the valid hard-key code for future reference.
