• Setting the Switching Time for the Relay
ATTENTION: The output switching times are approximate values which can deviate from the
nominal values depending on the status of the reader.
The Reader allows the setting of the relay’s switching time. During this process no Transponder should be
close to the Antenna.
In order to set the switching time of the relay press the push button for at least 5 seconds until the LED
lights up for the second time (immediately after pressing the push button the LED will light up. It will
switch off again after about 1 seconds indicating the programming condition for the Master Transponder).
After the second lighting up of the LED release the push button and press it again as many times as the
number of seconds you want to set the relay’s switching time, i. e. the push button has to be pressed 3
times for a switching time of 3 seconds and accordingly 5 times for a 5 second switching time. The
maximum switching time is 15 seconds. When pressing the push button the LED will switch off and will
light up again when the push button is released. This way the number of push button strokes can also be
counted optically. After the switching time has been set, press the push button until the LED shortly lights
up three times, indicating the end of the setting process. The setting process for the relay’s switching
time has thus been concluded.
If you happen to accidentally press the push button more often than the allowed 15 times (for a 15
second switching time), the Reader will terminate the programming process without any change of the
switching time (LED will light up 5 times).
In order to set the shortest possible switching time of 0.5 seconds shortly release the push button after
appr. 5 seconds, i. e. after lighting up of the LED and press and hold it again until the LED lights up 3
times.
Moreover the switching time of the relay is automatically extended as long as a valid Key Transponder is
in the close proximity of the Antenna’s reading area. This means that the set switching time only counts
from that point in time when the transponder is removed from the reading area of the Antenna.
• Memory Display
It is possible to store up to 50 Key Transponders in the Reader.
In case the memory is completely filled (50 Key Transponders), the Reader will indicate this condition
with a five-fold lighting up of the LED whenever an attempt to program further Transponders is started.
• Reading Mode
Whenever a transponder is read by the Reader its number is compared with the numbers of the Key
Transponders stored in memory. If the particular number is present in memory, the relay is switched for
the preset period of time. At the same time the LED lights up for the duration of the switching process.
• Reading transponders in the reading head mode
In this mode the reader ignores the transponder numbers stored in the memory of the reader. It sends
the read number on the serial interface to the PC and follows the instructions coming from the PC. One
can have in the PC independent tables of transponder numbers and the PC (an individual PC software) is
deciding if an instruction to switch the output is sent to the reader.
One can switch the reader from reading head mode to standalone mode according to individual
application requirements.
