For CAR Members Using Satellite Internet such as Wild Blue and Hughes Net, it is Essential To Know That Most Satellite ISP Providers Use a Non-Static IP Address. Non-Static IP Addresses are Web Addresses that Constantly Switch (they are using more than one IP address in order to maximize availability).

The SentriLock Website Is Like a Secure Bank Website, In That It Will Deny Access To The Server If It Sees That The Web Address Keeps Switching.

In Order To Correct The Issue, SentriLock Recommends That You Call SentriLock Support (877) 736-8745 In Order For The Card Utility To Be Upgraded To 2.05.44. Or You Can Download The Update Yourself By Accessing The SentriLock Website. Look under the Support Tab, then the Downloads Tab.

If You Are Still Having Difficulty, There Is An Option That The ISP Provider Can Implement To Correct The Issue, But It May Cost An Additional Fee Depending On The Provider.

How Do I Release The Lockbox Shackle?

1. If you are the lockbox owner or team member, you can use the following instructions to release the shackle. Insert your SentriCard into the lockbox. Wait until the CODE light displays, then enter your PIN and press ENT.
2. Do not remove your SentriCard from the lockbox.
3. When the lockbox displays the READY light, press FUNC + 1 + ENT. The lockbox will begin beeping.
4. While firmly holding the lockbox, gently press the shackle into the lockbox as the lockbox makes the triple beep sounds. After 5 triple beeps the lockbox will display the READY light, indicating that it's time to pull the shackle out of the lockbox. The shackle will come all the way out of the lockbox. If you are not holding onto the lockbox when the shackle unlatches, it could fall to the ground!

NOTE:
When you remove the shackle from the lockbox, you may lose any custom settings you selected. In addition, if you assigned a lockbox to a listing, the lockbox may lose the listing assignment when you remove the shackle.

To replace the shackle, firmly press the shackle into the lockbox. The shackle is reversible, so it doesn't matter which way to insert it. You may have to wiggle it slightly to get it to go into the lockbox. Make sure you hear or feel a positive "click" that confirms the shackle latch has engaged.

If you try to remove the shackle from the lockbox and it makes five-triple beeps (these are the shackle release warning beeps) then displays the ERROR light, you can try the following:

1. Try supporting the weight of the lockbox while removing the shackle. If your lockbox is hanging on a door know when you try to remove the shackle, the weight of the lockbox can stall the motor that releases the shackle. Holding the lockbox while releasing the shackle can prevent this problem.
2. While the lockbox is making its five-triple beeps, try gently compressing the shackle.
3. Do not pull on the shackle while the lockbox is making the shackle release warning beeps. If you try to remove the shackle while the lockbox is beeping, the lockbox will not release the shackle.

If the ERROR light is blinking after you enter your shackle code, you entered an incorrect shackle code.
