The Bypass state will last until either all the Tags leave the field or until the door is opened and closed. If
the Bypass is terminated by opening and closing the door, the Tag Reader will ignore Tags that were
already in the field for 5 seconds (this is Post-Bypass state), after which time it will revert to Idle state and
be able to detect all the Tags again. Note that while in Post-Bypass state the Tag Reader will enter Alarm
or Pre-Alarm state for all the new Tags entering the field.
Audio-Visual Indication
There are 4 LEDs and the buzzer which provide information about Tag Reader state:
- NET LED
is red and is blinking while there is no communication established with the Host
Server. The LED goes solid when Tag Reader establishes communication with the Host.
- RF LED
is red and flashes briefly whenever a massage from a Tag is received.
- HCI LED
is yellow and flashes briefly whenever a message has been sent to the Host Server.
- PMI LED is not used.
Tag Reader buzzer is used for indication purposes and annunciation of Alarm, Pre-Alarm and Bypass
states.
System Verification
Guard RFID systems are designed to assist staff in providing a high degree of safety for people and assets
and therefore should only be used as a component of a comprehensive security program of policies,
procedures, and processes. As with every security system, Guard RFID highly recommends regular system
operational checks to verify functional integrity.
