Management mode
This setting controls whether the LRT acts as the controller (Standalone Mode), or whether it is controlled
by an external application (Managed Mode). The controller in this instance is what interfaces to the
back-end physical access control system (PACS).

For example, if the LRT’s Wiegand output is delivered directly to the PACS, it should be set to
Standalone Mode. If, however, the LRT is not configured for Wiegand output, or if a custom lane
controller is being used, then it should be set to Managed Mode.
Standalone Output Options
This setting is only applicable in Standalone Mode and allows for the configuration of:
• The number of milliseconds the LRT waits in between sending Wiegand output. The available
range is from 0 – 60,000 milliseconds. The back-end PACS can become overloaded if some degree of
throttling is not performed. This setting allows the timing to be customized based on the specific
application and experience. For instance, at a gate with minimal traffic, it could be set to a high number,
but in a high traffic scenario, the number should be low, as long as it does not confuse the backend
reader if packets are received too quickly. The default setting on a new transceiver is 0. A
recommended initial setting is 2000 milliseconds
• The number of milliseconds that the LRT will wait in between toggling the Form C relay.
• Inversion settings*: Wiegand or Relay signaling settings can be inverted, driving the signal to
low voltage instead of high voltage. This setting may be necessary if your access control panel cannot
interpret the default Wiegand signaling scheme. Note: The differential in voltage when driving “high” is
small, so inversion is recommended for applications that require a greater variance and therefore a more
noticeable effect.
*In this release of the LRT hardware, only Wiegand or Relay can be selected. In future revisions both will be able
to be configured to operate at the same time.
Transceiver key
This setting is only applicable if Standalone Mode has been selected. The transceiver key is used to
verify the authenticity of plusID 90 devices via a challenge/response cryptographic exchange.
A key must be created and assigned to each LRT. This can be done using the Transceiver
Configuration Tool or the plusID Manager software used for device issuance. Regardless of where the
key is created, the key must be assigned the same value in both applications, the plusID Manager and
the Transceiver Configuration Tool. The order in which the keys are configured is not important, just t
