Note: MASTER and INSTALLER cards can be used as Programming Cards to start associated
programming mode and to program reader based on multiple card readings method.
5.1.1. Managing the Users
A new user can be registered in the reader using either the Simple Programming or Full
Programming procedure.
The Simple Programming procedure consists of PIN and/or card programming without specifying
the ID number of a user to whom the programmed PIN/card is assigned — as the result reader
simply stores the PIN/card in the first unoccupied user’s ID number. When the card is lost or PIN is
forgotten then the only way to remove such user from reader’s memory is to make Memory Reset
and erase all users from memory.
The Full Programming procedure requires specifying of the ID number for the new user being
programmed which has to be followed by his PIN and/or card. When this method is applied then
users can be removed from memory selectively based on their Ids.
5.1.2. User Identification
In PRT series readers every user can be recognized by identifier i.e. card or PIN. If Card and PIN
Identification mode is configured in the reader then both identifiers must be used (first card and
then PIN when green LED OPEN pulsates). Identification mode is programmed individually for
primary and secondary reader. The mode concerns NORMAL, TOGGLE and TOGGLE LTD users and
it does not concern MASTER and INSTALLER users as they always follow Card or PIN Identification
mode thus starting of programming procedure requires only one of identifiers i.e. card or PIN.
5.2. DOOR UNLOCKING
The reader can grant access (unlock door) when the NORMAL or TOGGLE user is properly identified
at the reader or the input with function [22]: Exit button is triggered. When the access is granted
then LED OPEN (green) is activated for the time of door unlocking. Door lock remains released
until door closing is recognized or time specified by the timer Door Unlock Time elapses. Door
should be closed before the time specified by the timer Door Open Timeout elapses (it is counted
when Door Unlock Time elapses) or Door Ajar alarm is raised.
The reader denies access:
When entered identifier (card/PIN) is not valid (unknown)
When reader is armed and the option Access disabled when reader armed is active
When TOGGLE LTD identifier is used
When identification method is not complete (e.g. user presented only card but Card
and PIN mode is configured)
Note: With the option Access disabled when reader armed, TOGGLE or TOGGLE LTD users may
change reader’s arming mode thus enabling or disabling access to controlled door. Therefore,
armed and disarmed states can be used for additional access control.
5.3. FACILITY CODE
The Facility Code (also called Site Code) is a specific part of the entire card code which indicate
group of cards. For example when Facility Code is defined as 245 all cards which begin with “245”
will comply with given Facility Code (e.g. 24532AB450, 245D4523AA, 2453456231 will comply
while 12A4562432, 3214534522, 2353414422 will not).
When Facility Code option is active reader first searches if the card belongs to any user registered
in the reader, if not, it verifies if this card comply with given Facility Code, when yes then card is
accepted as valid NORMAL user card, if not then card is rejected.
Thanks to this feature reader may be used to grant access to larger number of users which are not
programmed individually into the reader but they have cards which comply with given Facility
Code.
The whole card code may have up to 10 digits coded in HEX (13 digits coded in DEC). When
defining the Facility Code installer must specify digit locations and their values in HEX format. For
