If using LNL-CK with default Extended Held command code of 200 and an Extended Held Time of 3 minutes:

7. < 200 003 COMMAND

If using non LNL-CK keypad with default Extended Held command code of 200 and an Extended Held time of 3 minutes:

7. * 200 003 #

The command is split into four main sections:

Section 1: < or *    This puts the reader into a state that allows commands.

Section 2: Extended Held command code (the default in the system is 200).

Section 3: The duration of the extended held time. This is always a 3-digit number. For example, if you want an extended held of 1 minute, then enter 001 on the keypad. If you want an extended held of 10 minutes, then enter 010 on the keypad. If you want an extended held of 100 minutes, then enter 100 on the keypad.

Section 4: COMMAND or #   This lets the reader know that the command sequence is complete.
