TL11 timelock software

What you’ll need

TL11 timelock parameters are programmed using Windows software and peripheral equipment. An auditable keypad is also required.

• If the lock has not been fitted with an auditable keypad, one can be connected to the lock temporarily for setup.

The audit and setup peripheral equipment required depends on the keypad in use. Kits are available to purchase from our online store.
