[OBSOLETE] Lock User Management (LUM)

At least the lock has individual buttons for each digit as opposed to the doubled-up buttons on the Kwikset it’s replacing

There’s another issue with Kwikset locks. They won’t accept two codes that use the same key combination. For example if you try to program 1234 and 2134, even through they are different codes some of these locks like the Kwikset 888/910/912 will reject the second code because it can’t differentiate between them when the user enters the code because they are sharing the same key press order.
To put it in context, a 10 button keypad can generate 10,000 unique 4 digit codes, a 5 button keypad can only generate 625 unique 4 digit codes.

Also see this topic for another issue we discovered with the 910/912 locks regarding programming issues:

Kwikset 910 Locks keep disconnecting

I would advise against the 888/910/912 locks. Apart of the obvious issues discussed here (z-module, battery and motherboard issues) it also has two other problems that we’ve found in our testing: It appears to have a bug where it reports a confirmed code programming to the hub but it actually fails and ends up deleting the code. This has been observed under heavy programming within a short period of time while, so I would not recommend this for use in places where you’re constantly changing a lot of codes, especially when the mesh is weak (which seems to exacerbate the issue) It won’t accept all combinations of codes. E.g. 1234 and 2134, while they’re different the lock will reject the second one because it uses the same order or key presses and the lock can’t differentiate.
