Is this a one time use or can the pin be put back in for addtional usage?

It can be put back. I restored mine, but it does have a hare (hair?) trigger. Try not to carry it on your keychain. That was my mistake.

Pulling the strap away from the unit pulls the pin out of the unit and triggers the alarm. Pushing the pin back in stops the alarm so that you can reuse the device numerous times. You can either put the strap around your wrist and hold onto the unit or you can wrap the strap around something like a purse strap and then push the unit through the strap. That way, it is always connected to the purse strap so you can easily find the device and yanking it away from the purse sets it off.

I've had mine for about 2-3 years. The original pin broke really fast, less than 6 months. Fiskars sent out a repair kit free of charge with 3 replacement pins. The new pin hasn't failed so I assume that they reformulated the metal pin to be stronger or the original one came from a faulty batch.

Stick a pin in the side hole like a pin you use in sewing and reset machine

Open up yhe back un screw the thing that holds in the pin and push the pin as far in as possible then screw the thing back on tight and replace the back if that doesn't work send it back

Yes, Josheph. The pin can be removed, that is how we use ours. It makes it much lighter to pick up.

I don't remember one being in there as I had a lockable pin I was going to use. You will want a lockable pin so it doesn't get stolen. This is a great step and it works very well.

No, it does not come with a pin. I bought a pin at Lowe's for approximately $6.00.

Use a file. Took me about 10 minutes. I used a thin circle file and removed the small tab on the end of the pin and it should come right out.

Mine came with all the pins already pushed in, had to pull them out for it to work. Hope that helps.

After the initial set up you cannot change the PIN without the PIN. The reset does not work without the proper code.

If you can't find a replacement pin from the manufacturer, http://www.tractorsupply.com/ will probably have something that will work.

Yes, with shipping the manufacturer is asking about $16 for replacement pins: http://www.generaltools.com/PIND4E--Replacement-Pins_p_1362.html

I don't see why not as long as you didn't bend the pins it should still be fine.

You can connect a PIN pad, but I'm not sure if it will work with PIN from a different credit card machine. You should contact your merchant service company for the answer.

It happened with me also, I started watching for the pin to start drifting out of place and any time that I noticed it starting to happen I used a pliers to push it back into place. I suppose that if it gets worse you could use a drop of super glue to secure It in place.

Some pins (Either Chinese, Russian, or Yugo) have a pin you can press down to remove. If yours is not this type of pin you have to cut the pin in half or grind the nub off.Replacement pins can be purchased on e-bay, etc if you want to fall back to the original configuration.All the best

you lift up or push down the little black tabs that are on the outside of the "time circle" and that is what takes the place of pins. can't remember if up is for on tmes or down is for on times. but using this mode you can have it turn on & off multiple time a day if you need
