Owner's Manual

The reader operates with a pack of cards which contain
a Master Card, Lock Mode Card and 100 Enrollment
(Shadow) Cards. When the reader is powered up for the
first time, it must be initialized by swiping the master card
through it. (Unit beeps three times.)
Setting the reader to operate in fail unlocked mode:
1. Swipe the Lock Mode Card to operate fail unlocked locks
such as magnetic locks.
2. Swipe the Lock Mode Card at any time to change back to
fail locked operation.
Setting the “door open” time:
1. Swipe the Master Card through the reader.
2. Pause for the length of time you wish the door to
remain unlocked. (Green arrow will be on; green, yellow
and red lights will be off; unit will continue beeping
once per second.)
3. Swipe the Master Card again. (Unit will beep twice and all
lights will turn on.)
4. The “door open” time is now set for the interval between
the first and second swipes.
To Enroll a user card on the reader:
1. On a paper Shadow Card from the pack, write a user’s
name in the space provided.
2. Swipe the Shadow Card through the reader. (Unit will beep
once; arrow will remain on; all other lights will turn off.)
3. Within 10 seconds swipe the card which is to be the access
card through the reader. This may be the user’s credit card
or any other ANSI Track 2 encoded card. The user’s card is
now programmed in the reader to permit access. (Unit will
beep three times and all lights will turn on.)
4. Store the Shadow Card safely away.
To DELETE a user’s card from the reader:
1. Swipe the Shadow Card of the user you wish to delete
through the reader. (Unit will beep three times; green,
yellow and red lights will turn off momentarily then
light up again.)
2. The reader will now no longer accept the user’s card.
3. Store the Shadow Card to use in the future for another
user, if desired.
To Enroll another card pack:
Additional card packs may be enrolled to increase the
capacity of the system. Up to four packs, each with 250
shadow cards, may be enrolled on one system to give a
maximum user card capacity of 1,000.
1. To enroll an additional pack, swipe the Master Card from
the card pack that has already been used on the system
through the reader.
2. Swipe the Master Card from the new card pack.
3. The new pack of additional shadow cards can now be
used on the system.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each additional card pack.
To Delete a card pack:
1. Swipe the Master Card twice quickly up from the bottom.
All lights will go out. After a brief pause, all lights will
turn on. Reader will beep twice.
2. The card pack has now been removed from the system.
Repeat as required for other packs.
Reset Instructions:
The magstripe card reader will remember its settings and
the details of card validity in the event of a power failure. A
data reset may be carried out to return the unit to its factory
settings. Note: This will remove any enrolled cards. The
procedure for doing this is as follows:
1. Turn off power to the reader.
2. If an exit button is fitted then press and hold. If there
is no exit button, short mauve and blue wires by
connecting them.
3. Reapply power to the unit. The reader will beep twice.
Green arrow will be steady. Green, yellow and red lights
will turn off. After a brief pause the red LED will light with a
beep. Release the exit button or disconnect the mauve/blue
wires. All lights will turn off briefly, reader will beep twice
followed by all lights back on.
4. Turn off the power to the reader.
The card reader has now reverted to Factory Settings
which are: door open time = 7 seconds / fail locked
operation / no cards valid. See above programming
instructions to reconfigure the system.
