The ASSA ABLOY SMARTair i-max Update-On-Card iCLASS Keypad Escutcheon (SNCB47SL1S008DI) turns a standard mortice lock door into a credential-controlled access point without running a cable through the door or frame. It pairs an HID iCLASS card reader and an on-door PIN keypad with a DDA-compliant lever handle, controls the outside lever through an electromechanical clutch and runs on three AAA batteries. Users open the door by card, PIN or card plus PIN, depending on how each door is set up. This is the L1S model, which has no mechanical key override: there is no cylinder hole, so every entry from outside is by credential.

In Update-on-Card mode, access rights travel on each user's card. You manage users in SMARTair TS1000 software, each card collects its latest rights whenever it is presented at an online updater (an update point or wall updater), and the escutcheon reads those rights at the door. Nothing is wired to the door and there is no app or Wi-Fi on this tier. Update-on-Card also brings automatic cancellation of lost or stolen cards (Standalone cancels them by hand) and activation and expiry dates and times (not offered on Standalone) - the four management systems are compared on page 4 of the SMARTair Product Overview.

The escutcheon mounts over a compatible mortice lock, and the mortice lock is sold separately - the Lockwood 3782ENOHDSS, Lockwood 4782ENOHDSS and Lockwood 6782ENOHDSS bodies are built to suit SMARTair escutcheons (the Lockwood 5782ENOHDSS is the narrow option; see the Mortice Options tab). It suits doors 30-120 mm thick and is tested to EN 1906 Grade 4 for busy commercial doors. For card-only doors choose the card-only version; if you need a key override, choose the SL2V version with key override; for narrow-stile mortice doors see the narrow mortice version.

Commercial use
Built for Busy Commercial Doors
SMARTair i-max escutcheons are tested to EN 1906 Grade 4 and designed for medium to high traffic doors - offices, meeting rooms, laboratories, education campuses and healthcare buildings - where access has to be managed centrally but the doors cannot be wired. See which platform suits a commercial site and our commercial and access-control brand profiles.
DDA compliance
Disability Compliance (DDA)
Supplied with a DDA-compliant lever handle, shaped to help people with limited grip strength. Compliance relates to the handle itself - the finished door (hardware heights, clearances and opening force) still has to be assessed as a complete system. See DDA and accessibility, AS 1428.1 explained and our NDIS and DDA housing guide.
Fire rating
Fire Rated - EN 1634 (European Test)
The i-max escutcheon has been fire tested to EN 1634, the European fire-resistance test. It carries no Australian fire-resistance level of its own - in Australia, fire compliance belongs to the certified doorset (door, frame, mortice lock and hardware together). The Lockwood 782-series mortice bodies it suits are separately fire rated to AS 1905.1 on compliant fire door assemblies. Before fitting to a fire door, confirm the complete assembly with us or your fire door certifier - see how locks are tested for Australian fire doors, AS 1905.1 and fire door core types.

Key Features

  • Update-on-Card access control - each user's rights are carried on their card and refreshed at online updaters, with no wiring to the door (what an Update-on-Card site needs).
  • Integrated HID iCLASS RFID reader (13.56 MHz) - part of our card and fob access range; how RFID credentials work.
  • On-door PIN keypad - card only, PIN only, card + PIN or PIN + card, so higher-security rooms can ask for two factors (PIN codes compared; browse PIN code smart locks).
  • No cylinder hole (L1S blind model) - no key to copy or lose, and every entry from outside is by credential; a flat-battery door is opened with the SMARTair portable programmer (locks without a key override).
  • DDA-compliant commercial lever handle (DDA and accessibility).
  • Electromechanical clutch on a 7.8 mm split spindle - the mortice lock keeps doing the mechanical locking; the escutcheon decides when the outside lever engages (spindle mistakes to avoid).
  • Free exit from inside - the i-max internal panic function leaves the inside handle free to open the door.
  • Stores approximately 3,000 users and approximately 1,200 audit events in the door.
  • Battery powered - 3 x AAA alkaline batteries, approximately 75,000-105,000 openings or up to 2 years, with an LED low-battery warning (what really affects battery life).
  • All electronics sit on the inside of the door, away from tampering.
  • Tested to EN 1906 Grade 4 and EN 1634 (fire), and RCM and R-NZ marked for Australia and New Zealand (what RCM means).
  • Upgradeable - add the BLE module for Openow smartphone keys, or move to Wireless Online for real-time control (UOC + Openow / Wireless + Openow).

Features Summary

SMARTair i-max escutcheon features summary
Manufacturer features overview for the SMARTair i-max escutcheon family.
Retrofit
Retrofit Without Wiring
The escutcheon fits over the mortice lock and needs no cable through the door or frame, so an existing mechanical door can move to electronic access control with little disruption. The mortice lock stays in charge of the mechanical locking and the escutcheon controls when the outside lever engages. Converting a floor or a whole building? Book a site survey first.

  • ASSA ABLOY rates the batteries at approximately 75,000-105,000 openings or up to 2 years, depending on use.
  • LED low-battery warning at the escutcheon; the clock and calendar are held briefly while the batteries are changed.
No key override
No Key Override on This Model - Change Batteries at the First Warning
This L1S escutcheon has no cylinder, so there is no key to fall back on. Replace the batteries promptly when the low-battery LED warns. If they are allowed to go fully flat, the door can be opened using the SMARTair portable programmer - make sure someone on site has one, or knows who does.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Update-on-Card work, and does it need wiring?
No wiring to the door. Each user's access rights are written to their HID iCLASS card, and the card picks up any changes when it is presented at an online updater connected to TS1000. The escutcheon checks the card's rights at the door. You need the TS1000 software, a card encoder, a portable programmer (or PC-TO-LOCK) and at least one updater - see page 3 of the Product Overview.
What happens if the batteries go flat on a model with no key?
Change the batteries when the low-battery LED warns. If they are left to go fully flat, the door is opened with the SMARTair portable programmer. If you would rather have a key as a fallback, choose the SL2V version with key override.
Is the mortice lock included, and which one do I need?
No. The Lockwood 3782ENOHDSS, Lockwood 4782ENOHDSS and Lockwood 6782ENOHDSS bodies are built to suit SMARTair escutcheons; pick the backset your door needs. Tubular latches are not suitable. Check your backset and ask us if you are unsure.
Which entry modes does the keypad support?
Card only, PIN only, card + PIN or PIN + card. Two-factor entry suits server rooms and stores; card only keeps busy doors moving. If you do not need a keypad, the card-only version costs less.
Can staff open the door with their phones?
Not on this tier - Update-on-Card has no Openow or app. Choose the UOC + Openow escutcheon for phone keys, or add the BLE module to this one later along with the Openow mobile access licence.

Additional Information

  • What an Update-on-Card site needs: TS1000 software, a card encoder (SMARTair USB encoder), a portable programmer or PC-TO-LOCK to set up each door, online updaters where cards refresh, and HID iCLASS credentials - the full list is on page 3 of the Product Overview.
  • Special order: this escutcheon is not a stock line - the lead time shown with the price applies, so allow for it in your project programme and order the rest of the system (credentials, encoder, programmer) at the same time.
  • Mortice lock and fit: the standard mortice lock body is sold separately and a tubular latch will not work. Match the body to the escutcheon configuration (648 standard) and confirm backset and door thickness before ordering.
  • Fire doors: EN 1634 is a European test and gives no Australian FRL. The doorset governs - read how locks are tested for Australian fire doors before fitting to a fire door.
  • Where this sits in the range: the Standalone escutcheon costs less and is managed with programming cards; the UOC + Openow model adds phone keys; the Wireless + Openow model adds real-time control. See the Item Code Family table above.

SMARTair i-max Update-on-Card Keypad Escutcheon (SNCB47SL1S008DI) - FAQ, Setup and Owner's Guide

Straight answers for buyers, installers and site managers working with the SNCB47SL1S008DI (standard mortice, L1S, no key override). For general smart lock questions see Chapter 13 - Smart Lock FAQ, or start at the Buyer's Guide.

Update-on-Card Explained

What does Update-on-Card actually mean day to day?
Think of each card as carrying its own permission slip. When you add a user or change what they can open in TS1000, the change is written to that person's card the next time they present it at an online updater. At the door, this escutcheon reads the permissions off the card and decides whether to engage the outside lever. The door never needs a cable, a network point or a Wi-Fi signal. ASSA ABLOY sets out the tier on page 3 of the Product Overview.
What do I need to buy to run an Update-on-Card site?
Besides the door devices you need: a TS1000 software licence, a card encoder (the SMARTair USB encoder), a SMARTair portable programmer or PC-TO-LOCK to initialise each door, at least one online updater where cards pick up changes, and HID iCLASS cards or tags. The 10-door management kits are no longer sold as a bundle, so ask us to price the parts your site needs.
Do permission changes reach the door straight away?
Not instantly. A change takes effect at the door once the user's card has been refreshed at an updater, so place updaters where people pass every day (the main entry or the lift lobby is typical). If you need changes to land the moment you make them, or want live door status, that is the Wireless + Openow tier.
What happens when someone loses a card?
Update-on-Card supports automatic cancellation of lost or stolen cards, where Standalone has to be cancelled by hand at each door. You cancel the card in TS1000 and issue a replacement - no lock changes and no rekeying. The feature comparison is on page 4 of the Product Overview.
Can access be limited to certain days, times or dates?
Yes. Update-on-Card cards can carry activation and expiry dates and times, and TS1000 lets you build time zones and calendar schedules - handy for contractors, casual staff or a room that should only open during business hours. Standalone escutcheons do not offer activation and expiry dates (Product Overview p4).
What is the difference between TS1000 and Web Manager?
TS1000 is the SMARTair management software - a Windows client/server package with its own database, used to configure the installation and initialise the doors. Web Manager is the browser-based front end that runs once TS1000 is set up, so users, doors, time zones, access rights and events can be handled from any device. The server needs a public IP address for Web Manager to work (Product Overview p6).
Does the escutcheon keep an audit trail?
Yes - it stores approximately 1,200 events in its own memory. How those events are collected depends on the management system, so tell us how you plan to use the audit trail when we quote. Sites that want events reported as they happen, with email alerts, should look at Wireless Online.
Can Update-on-Card doors sit alongside other SMARTair doors?
Yes. SMARTair management systems can be combined on one site, so a building can run Update-on-Card on office doors and Wireless Online on the doors that need real-time control (system architecture, Product Overview p5). The same i-max hardware family covers every tier - compare the Standalone, UOC + Openow and Wireless + Openow equivalents of this model.

Credentials and Access Methods

Which cards and tags does this escutcheon read?
HID iCLASS credentials at 13.56 MHz - cards and key-ring tags encoded by your SMARTair system. The i-max family is built for other RFID technologies too, but every i-max escutcheon we list is the iCLASS version, so order iCLASS credentials to match. Our RFID explainer covers how card technologies differ.
Can we use the iCLASS cards we already carry?
Possibly. SMARTair stores its data in free memory space on the credential, so one card can also carry other services such as vending or canteen payments (Product Overview p8). Whether your existing cards have the room and the right format has to be checked, so send us the card details before you plan around them.
How do the PIN options work?
The keypad gives you four modes: card only, PIN only, card + PIN, or PIN + card. A busy corridor door can run card only to keep people moving, while a server room or medicine store can ask for card and PIN together, so a found card is useless on its own. See PIN codes compared and the wider PIN code smart lock range.
Is the keypad worth the extra cost over the card-only model?
Only if you will use it. PIN entry means staff can get in without a card, and two-factor entry lifts security on sensitive rooms. If every user will carry a card and no door needs two factors, the card-only version does the same job for less.
Can staff open doors with their phones?
Not on this tier. Update-on-Card is a card-based system with no app. For phone keys, the UOC + Openow escutcheon has Openow built in; this escutcheon can also be upgraded with the BLE module, and phone keys need the Openow mobile access licence. See Bluetooth access explained.
How secure are the credentials?
SMARTair physical credentials are encrypted, and access rights are controlled centrally in TS1000 rather than by whoever can get a key copied. Our smart lock security FAQ and local versus cloud data cover the bigger picture.
How are new cards issued?
Credentials are written with the SMARTair USB encoder connected to TS1000. Sites using Web Manager can add a Web Encoder licence (SNCCLICWEBENC30 for up to 10 or 30 doors, SNCCLICWEBENCOD for 75 doors or unlimited) to encode from the browser - call us to quote.
Can a SMARTair wall reader run another door on the same system?
Yes, SMARTair has wall readers for automated doors, gates and lifts, but check the card technology first. The SMARTair i-Reader R4N Slim wall reader for Update-on-Card we list reads MIFARE, not iCLASS, so it will not read the same cards as this escutcheon. Tell us what the second opening is and we will match a reader to your credentials.

Key Override, Power and Batteries

What batteries does it take and how long do they last?
Three AAA LR03 alkaline batteries in the inside unit. ASSA ABLOY rates them at approximately 75,000-105,000 openings or up to 2 years, whichever comes first - a heavily used door will reach the opening count well before the 2 years. Read what really affects battery life and the power and battery FAQ.
How do I know when to change them, and will I lose my settings?
An LED at the escutcheon warns when the batteries are getting low. The clock and calendar are held for a short time while the batteries are swapped, so change them promptly and do not leave the unit sitting empty. Access rights live on the cards, so they are not affected by a battery change.
Why choose a model with no key override?
With no cylinder hole there is no key to lose, copy or pick, and every entry from outside is made with a credential. That suits sites that have struggled with key control. Read locks without a key override before you commit.
How is the door opened if the batteries run completely flat?
With the SMARTair portable programmer. There is no mechanical fallback on this L1S model, so change batteries as soon as the LED warns and make sure your site (or your service contractor) has access to a programmer. If that is a risk you would rather not carry, choose the SL2V version with key override.
Can people always get out from inside?
Yes. The i-max internal panic function leaves the inside handle free, so the escutcheon never traps anyone in the room - it only controls the outside lever. Emergency egress requirements for your building still need to be checked by your certifier.

Fit, Mortice Lock and Installation

Which mortice lock does this escutcheon suit?
The Lockwood 782-series ENOHDSS bodies built for SMARTair escutcheons: Lockwood 3782ENOHDSS, Lockwood 4782ENOHDSS and Lockwood 6782ENOHDSS. Pick the backset your door needs; the lock body is sold separately. The Lockwood 5782ENOHDSS is the narrow body and pairs with the narrow mortice version of this escutcheon.
What distance between axes does it suit?
64 mm - the standard mortice configuration, measured between the lever spindle and the cylinder position on the mortice lock body. If you are fitting over an existing lock, measure the body (backset and centres) before ordering - our backset guide shows how to measure a lock.
Will it work with a tubular latch or a cylindrical lockset?
No. The escutcheon drives the lock through a split spindle and clutch, which needs the spindle hub of a mortice lock body. See mortice lever and escutcheon hardware and the mortice locks for smart locks range.
What door thickness does it suit?
Doors from 30 to 120 mm thick, depending on the spindle configuration. Measure the door itself, not the frame - measuring door thickness shows how.
How does the escutcheon lock and unlock the door?
It does not throw a bolt of its own. The 7.8 mm split spindle lets the inside and outside levers work independently, and the electromechanical clutch connects the outside lever only when a valid credential is presented. The mortice lock keeps doing the mechanical locking and latching. A wrong spindle is one of the common installation mistakes.
Can I install it myself?
A competent locksmith or access control installer should fit it. The door has to be prepared to the drilling template, the mortice body fitted and the door initialised with the portable programmer. The template PDF carries no scale statement, so check it against the hardware before marking a door. Read when DIY makes sense, or book our installation service.
Can it tell me if a door is left open?
The escutcheon signals internal handle use, and door position can be reported with an optional door sensor (not included). Real-time door status alerts are a Wireless Online feature, so ask us which setup gives you the reporting you want.
Will it stand up to a busy commercial door?
It is tested to EN 1906 Grade 4 and designed for medium to high traffic doors. The electronics sit on the inside of the door, away from tampering. See how cycle ratings translate to real life.

Accessibility, Fire and Weather

Is it suitable for accessible (DDA) doors?
It comes with a DDA-compliant lever handle shaped for people with limited grip strength. Compliance for the finished door also depends on hardware heights, clearances and opening force, so the whole door must be assessed. See AS 1428.1 explained and DDA and accessibility.
Can it go on a fire door?
Only after the complete doorset has been checked. The escutcheon is fire tested to EN 1634, a European test, which gives it no Australian fire-resistance level on its own. In Australia the certified doorset governs, and the Lockwood 782 bodies are fire rated to AS 1905.1 on compliant assemblies. Talk to your fire door certifier first - how locks are tested for Australian fire doors.
Can it be fitted to an outside door?
This listing carries no weather rating, so treat it as an interior-door product. If the door is exposed to rain or wind-driven weather, talk to us before ordering. The operating range is -20 C to +70 C. See IP ratings explained.
Is it approved for use in Australia?
Yes - it is RCM and R-NZ marked for Australia and New Zealand, and also carries CE (EMC, R&TTE), RoHS, REACH and WEEE. What RCM means.

Ordering, Finishes and Range

Is it in stock?
No - this is a special order line. The lead time shown with the price applies, so order credentials, the encoder and the programmer at the same time to keep your project on track.
What finishes are available?
This listing is the black reader. The DDA lever handle is also made in Polished Chrome, Satin Brass, White and Marengo, with an antibacterial coating option, and the reader comes in Black or White. Contact us before ordering if you need a different combination.
How do I read the SMARTair item code?
The letter after SN gives the tier: A = Standalone, C = Update-on-Card, B = UOC + Openow, Z = Wireless + Openow. 43 is card only and 47 adds the keypad. SL2V takes a key override cylinder; SL1S is the blind model with no override. 648 is the standard mortice configuration and 908 the narrow one. So SNCB47SL1S008DI is Update-on-Card, keypad, no key override, standard mortice. The full range is in the Item Code Family table.

Compatible Mortice Locks for SMARTair Escutcheons

SMARTair i-max escutcheons work with commercial mortice lock bodies - the escutcheon drives the lock through an electromechanical clutch and split spindle, which needs the spindle and case of a mortice lock. Tubular latches are not suitable. The Lockwood 782-series ENOHDSS bodies below are built to suit SMARTair escutcheons; all are Satin Stainless Steel with auxiliary deadlatching and are fire rated to AS 1905.1 on compliant fire door assemblies.
