Aegis Padlock 3.0
First-Time Use / Admin Mode Setup
NOTE: if you are using the Aegis Congurator to set up your Padlock 3.0, First ensure that
the device has the “congurable” logo on the belly label. Also, DO NOT perform the following
Manual Admin and USER PIN SETUP steps below; The Aegis Congurator will only recognize
devices in their factory “out of box” state or devices that have been completely reset.
Each Aegis Padlock 3.0 is shipped without a preset Personal Identication Number (PIN.) To prepare
the drive for use, the user must rst establish an Admin PIN that is between 6 and 16 digits in length.
PINs cannot contain all consecutive numbers or all the same numbers (e.g. 0123456789, 987654321
or 11111111, 22222222, etc.This Admin PIN is used to set the Padlock 3.0’s various Admin features and
also serves as the rst of ve User PINS for the Padlock 3.0’s standard operation.
To Manually Set Up the Admin PIN:
1. Plug the Padlock 3 into a powered USB port.
(BLUE and GREEN LEDs will glow solidly, indicating no Admin PIN has been established.)
2. Press + 9 simultaneously.
(BLUE LED will glow solidly and GREEN LED will blink.)
3. Enter the PIN to be used as your Admin code and press .
(If PIN is accepted, BLUE LED will turn off momentarily and GREEN LED will blink 3 times by itself,
then will continue blinking as the BLUE LED glows solidly.)*
4. Quickly re-enter that same PIN once more and press
(BLUE LED will turn off momentarily and GREEN LED will illuminate for one second until replaced
by the BLUE LED glowing solidly, indicating that the Admin PIN has been set and the Padlock 3.0 is
in Admin mode, ready to add another User PIN [see reverse] or for setting up features.)
5. To exit the Admin mode, press cancel (RED LED will glow solidly) or wait 30 seconds and Padlock
3.0 will return to standby mode.
6. If no additional users are to be added or Admin features set, Padlock 3.0 setup is now complete and
ready for use.
Adding a New User PIN
There are two ways to establish a User PIN: Admin-generat-
ed while in Admin Mode, and User-generated while Padlock
is placed in User Forced Enrollment State.
ADMIN-GENERATED USER PIN
1. Enter the Admin Mode by holding + 0 for ve seconds;
With RED LED blinking, enter the Admin PIN and press
the button. The BLUE LED will glow solidly.
2. Press the + 1 buttons together until the BLUE LED
glows solidly and the GREEN LED starts blinking.
3. Enter the User PIN* and press . The GREEN LED
will blink three times by itself, then the BLUE LED will
glow solidly as the GREEN LED continues blinking.
4. Re-enter that same User PIN and press . The
GREEN LED will glow solidly for three seconds verify-
ing that the User PIN was successfully added, and
then will be replaced by the BLUE LED glowing solidly,
indicating that the drive has returned to the Admin
mode.
