Hello, I need to allow the use of a programmable key in Auto mode. When I change the setting from “no” to “yes” I recieve a message stating I need to change the Access Level to “Write enabled in Auto Mode”. However, when I attempt to do so under the Default heading I cannot change any of the parameters. When selecting “All” heading, all the parameters are write enabled.
