Configuring Black & Decker locks

Use the System Design view to add and configure Black & Decker KwikSet® SmartCode® with Home ConnectTM Technology Zigbee Deadbolt locks, Baldwin, or other supported locks for exterior doors. In general, these instructions can be used to add and configure lock drivers for other lock products compatible with Control4 systems.

Ensure that the Black & Decker locks are installed as directed in the Black & Decker Installation instructions shipped with the product.

To add and configure Black & Decker locks:

  1. To add the driver and identify the device see “How to add devices to a project.” Ensure that the Black and Decker SmartLock RF Zigbee driver is added to the project tree.

    2. Tip: If you are adding several locks in a home, it might be useful to give each lock a unique name.

  1. For each lock you add to the project, add a Relay to the project tree also. See “Configuring Motorization.”
  1. Click the Connections view.
  1. In the Connections view, use the Control & Audio Video Connections tab to make the necessary control connection.
  1. Under Control Outputs, select the Lock State and drag it down to the Relay in the RELAY Input Devices pane.
