There are two lock modes on the W 487b WPS
- Electronic Programme Lock (Page 34 of Operating Instructions)
- Electronic System Lock (Page 35 of Operating Instructions)
Both locking modes appear to use the same red LED 'Locked' light.
This video only works for unlocking the 'Electronic System Lock'.
To lock/unlock the 'Electronic Programme Lock' you need to press and hold the 'Start' button for at least 4 seconds. You need to ensure that the Program Selector dial is in the same mode when you locked it to be able to unlock it.

What if this doesn't work? The red led stays on, no matter what.
