Guide for Digital Lock
1. Requirements
You have to create a digital lock with Arduino, keypad 4x4 and a
servo motor (to move the latch for locking or unlocking)
Your lock has a default password is 0000
You lock can change password
The # key will be used as function key
Press # key less than 3s: call the unlock function
Press # key more than 3s: call the change password function
