The following sections will guide you through getting started with your RAD. Last update to this topic: June 14, 2012. Top 5 Things to Know About the RAD Listed below are the top 5 things to know about your RAD: 1. The RAD renews your SentriCard® wirelessly. For more information on this feature, see How to Renew Your SentriCard® Using the RAD on page 6. 2. Using the RAD, immediate showing notifications will be sent to the owner of the lockboxes you access. For more information about this feature, see Using the RAD to Send Instant Showing Notifications on page 7. 3. The RAD enables you to access an NXT Wireless lockbox key compartment without inserting your SentriCard® into the The RAD Getting Started Guide Introduction 1 lockbox. For more information about this feature, see Your PIN and You’re In on page 9. 4. The RAD must be within 100 feet of the NXT Wireless lockbox you are trying to access. This distance is an estimate based upon clear line of sight, excluding any obstructions. 5. Some features such as Your PIN and You’re In require an NXT Wireless lockbox with firmware version 24.35 or higher. For information on how to determine your lockbox firmware, please see How to determine the firmware version of your Lockbox on page 10. Last update to this topic: June 20, 2012. General Information and Warnings Listed below are some warnings and general information about the RAD: 2 Introduction Wireless communication does not take place while using or viewing the RAD’s menu system. Exit any of the menus before trying to access a lockbox key compartment. If the cellular service is poor, it is possible for the RAD to drop its connection and display an error. The RAD will automatically try to `connect to a cellular service every 15 minutes. Access logs and other information will not be sent until the RAD has a valid cellular connection. The RAD does not have an audible or other notification when connected with the lockbox. The communication does not occur until the keypad on the lockbox is activated. This is necessary to conserve battery power on the RAD. The battery life on the RAD is approximately 1-2 weeks. This will vary depending upon usage. To charge the RAD, use the car charger or the USB charger provided with the RAD. For optimal usage, do not use the RAD in temperatures below -4 degrees Fahrenheit or above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It is not recommended to leave the RAD in direct sunlight, in a closed car. The RAD uses cellular service to communicate with the REALTOR® Lockbox Web Site. GSM Cellular Networks, such as AT&T and T-Mobile provide the cellular service. To find more information about activating the RAD, see the section on when the RAD is activated on page 3. When the RAD is activated, it initiates the cellular service setup. The RAD Getting Started Guide If you would like to transfer your RAD to another Agent, contact your Association. Your Association will deactivate it and reassign it to another Agent. In order to receive showing notification emails or text messages, you will need to set up your showing notification preferences in the REALTOR® Lockbox Web Site. You will need to make sure a valid email address and mobile phone number are set up in your account. For more information about this feature, see Using the RAD to Send Showing Notifications on page 7. Last update to this topic: December 19, 2012. Getting Started Activation and Setup Information The RAD does not require any software, but you may need to activate and set it up before first use. The following information will help you begin using your RAD for the first time. You may receive your RAD from the Association/Board/MLS or from SentriLock during a lockbox conversion. Before you can begin using the RAD you need to: 1. Charge the RAD. Similar to a cell phone, the RAD will need to be fully charged before you use it. You may use the car charger that came with the RAD; or if you have a micro USB wall charger available, you may use that to charge the RAD. The first time you charge your RAD, SentriLock recommends charging it for four hours. The battery icon on the RAD screen will have an exclamation point in the middle of it when you first receive your RAD. This indicates the RAD battery is critically low, and the device will have trouble connecting to a cell network until it is fully charged. While charging the RAD, the battery icon will appear as a lightning bolt. When the RAD battery is fully charged, the solid battery icon will appear. The RAD Getting Started Guide Getting Started 3 2. Activate the RAD. Activating the RAD ensures that the RAD recognizes you as the user and you are activating the cellular service. To activate the RAD, follow the activation instructions that came with the RAD. If your activation instructions say your RAD is activated, you only need to charge your RAD before you begin using it. If your instructions tell you to activate the RAD, call 855-351-1627 and follow the prompts. You will need your SentriCard® serial number (located on front of your SentriCard®)and the serial number/IMEI number of the RAD (located on the back of the RAD). Last update to this topic: December 20, 2012. Getting to Know the RAD This section displays a diagram of the RAD with the name of the RAD’s various parts. For example; thumbwheel, Micro USB port, reset button, etc. This section also features some information about the different notifications found on the RAD’s LCD display screen. 4 Getting Started The RAD Getting Started Guide Figure 1 The RAD's LCD Display Screen On the RAD’s LCD display screen, you will find the following items: An Inverted Triangle on a Stick zZ Signal Strength Battery Charge Indicator Time of the Day Day of the Week The Date The Inverted Triangle on a Stick is the antenna icon that displays the RAD’s signal strength bars. The zZ on the RAD’s LCD display screen means that the cell module is conserving the battery power while it does not need to connect. When it wakes up, it will show the signal strength. The cell module wakes up when there is activity that would require a connection to the SentriLock Server. The Signal Strength icon displays the strength of the cell connection. The Battery Charge Indicator displays whether or not the battery is fully charged. The battery is 100% charged when the battery charge indicator is solid. While charging, there will be a lightning bolt icon on the LCD display screen. As soon as the RAD is unplugged, the battery icon will change to the segmented icon which divides up the last 99% of battery life to show a rough estimate of how much power is left on the RAD. If the battery icon contains an exclamation point in the middle of it, this indicates that the battery is either measured to below effective operating voltage range, or the cell module has indicated an undervoltage error. The exclamation point indicates that the battery is critically low and the device will have trouble connecting to a cell network. The RAD Getting Started Guide Getting Started 5 The Time of Day, Day of the Week and Date are displayed on the RAD’s LCD display screen. Last update to this topic: December 20, 2012. How to Use the RAD to Renew Your SentriCard® Renewing your SentriCard® keeps it active and allows you to access lockboxes. You can check with your Association to find out how often you need to renew your SentriCard®. There are 3 ways to renew your SentriCard® using the RAD: Insert SentriCard® into the RAD Automatic Renewal Manual Renewal When you Insert your SentriCard® into the RAD, it will check to see if the SentriCard® is expired. If it is, the RAD will renew the SentriCard®. The Automatic Renewal occurs after midnight each night. The RAD will check to see if your SentriCard® needs to be renewed. If it does, and the RAD has cellular service; the RAD will automatically renew your SentriCard®. During the automatic renewal, it will upload any lockbox accesses from your SentriCard® and any additional files on your card. For example; when you visit a lockbox, your SentriCard® records your access along with the previous 3 accesses to the lockbox. During the automatic renewal, all accesses are sent to the SentriLock Server. Additionally, if you have taken ownership of any lockboxes, the RAD will upload those files during the automatic renewal. You can Manually Renew your SentriCard® at any time. Follow these steps to manually renew your SentriCard®: 1. Insert your SentriCard® into the RAD (SentriCard’s® gold chip facing up and going into the RAD). Push past the initial resistance until no part of your SentriCard® is extending beyond the RAD. 2. The RAD will display your name and SentriCard® serial number; followed by the date and time. 3. Press the thumb wheel and select Renew Card. The RAD will display the Connecting message, and then it will begin updating the SentriCard®. Wait for the renewal to finish. While the RAD is in the process of renewing the SentriCard®, it will display a screen saying “Renewing card……” 6 Getting Started The RAD Getting Started Guide DO NOT remove your SentriCard® from the RAD during the renewal process. Removing the SentriCard® from the RAD during the renewal process may cause damage to the SentriCard®. Once the renewal is complete, the RAD will return to the Main Menu. The RAD’s SentriCard® renewal feature does not require a lockbox. Note: To renew your SentriCard®, you must have your SentriCard® in a charged RAD with cellular service. Last update to this topic: July 10, 2012. Using the RAD to Send Showing Notifications Showing notifications tell the lockbox owner who has shown their listing(s). Each time you access a lockbox with your SentriCard® or Your PIN and You’re In, showing information is sent to your SentriCard® or RAD. Note: If you have accessed an NXT Wireless lockbox, with firmware 24.35 or higher, the lockbox will send the access information directly to the RAD and the RAD will send the information to the SentriLock Server. It is not necessary to insert your SentriCard® into the RAD. If you are accessing a previous version of lockbox, you will need to insert your SentriCard® into the RAD to send showing information. It is important to assign your lockbox to the listing address. When a lockbox is assigned to a listing, you can easily identify the property that has been shown. If you do not assign a lockbox to a listing, you will see the lockbox serial number, rather than the address in the showing notification. For more information on assigning your lockbox to a listing address, see the How to Assign a Lockbox to a Listing topic in the SentriLock System Guide. You can view the System Guide from: https://lockbox.sentrilock.com/manuals/systemguide/default.htm.

As an alternative, you could enter an additional email address in the Copy Showing Notifications group on the Edit Preferences window. If you are in an area without cellular service, you will have to wait until the RAD has cellular service before it will update your SentriCard® and send showing notifications to the lockbox owner. Showing notifications are available for any of the lockbox firmware versions. Last update to this topic: December 19, 2012.
