You can directly tap Unlock or tap Unlock on its monitoring page.

If the lock is not connected to Wi-Fi, it will display the Setting Wi-Fi icon. Tap to set up the network connection.

The Lock is Linked

After the lock is linked to a door phone relay, it is no longer operated independently within SmartPlus.

Instead, the door phone becomes the access control device. Any successful unlock action on the door phone triggers the configured relay, which simultaneously unlocks the linked smart lock.

Note

  • Facial recognition, PIN, NFC, Bluetooth, or card authentication are performed by the door phone, not by the smart lock.
