HandKey II Installation and Operation Manual
Page 84 Revision 2.0
Set Facility – allows the facility code to be entered in Hand Readers configured for
card reader emulation output mode. A facility code is not valid or required for
Hand Readers configured in Lock/Aux output mode.
When using a HandKey II on a Wiegand format access control panel and a keypad is
used for ID entry, you must set the site code to the access control panel’s facility code.
Without a matching code the access control panel will deny access to HandKey users.
Set Lock and Shunt – allows the time that the door lock output is activated and the
door alarm is shunted to be set. It also allows the auxiliary keypad to be used for
user ID entry. The Lock time is the number of seconds the lock output is active
(door is unlocked) following user verification. The Lock time is only valid when
the Hand Reader is set to the Lock & Aux output mode. The Shunt time is the
number of seconds the door may be held open before an alarm is generated. Lock
and Shunt times are not required for Hand Readers configured in Card Reader
Emulation output mode.
Aux Out Control – allows the Auxiliary Outputs in the Hand Reader to be set to trigger
based on selected events. Alarms can be mapped to appropriate Auxiliary Outputs.
Outputs are also cleared in this menu option. In the Lock and Shunt mode, all three
Auxiliary Outputs are available. In the Card Reader Emulation mode, Auxiliary
Outputs 1 and 2 are available.
Set Reader Mode – allows a Hand Reader to be set as the Master Hand Reader in a
Hand Reader network. All user enrollment is done through the Master Hand
Reader. The Master Hand Reader automatically downloads user data to all remote
Hand Readers on the network. The Reader Mode does not need to be set for stand-
alone Hand Readers and PC networks.
Set Serial – allows you to select either the RS-485/RS-422 or RS-232 communication
mode and to set the baud rate for the selected communication mode. The default
baud rate is 9600 bps which is suitable for most network communication
applications. If the Hand Reader uses the Ethernet communication option, the
TCP/IP address and gateway parameters are set instead of the baud rate.
Set Duress Code
– allows a special digit code to be defined that, when entered before a
user’s PIN entry, sends a silent alarm to security personnel using an auxiliary
output. This function only works with keypad ID number entry systems – it does
not work with Card Reader entry systems. If a Duress Code is set, an ID Length
cannot be set by the Set ID Length command.
For this function to work properly the following must be true: an auxiliary output must
be defined to activate on DURESS and assigned ID numbers cannot begin with the
duress code number.
