72 PRT-CTRL-SE Protege System Controller Reference Manual | PRT-CTRL-SE
Option 1 - Reader On Unlock and Door Open
y Enabled the reader expander will send card information to the system controller when a door is unlocked or
opened. This option is set by default and should be left set if the door controls areas or time and attendance
events are required from the reader port
y Disabled the reader performs no action when a card is presented and the door is unlocked or open.
Option 2 - Send Door Monitoring Events
y Enabled the reader will send door events when the door input is opened or closed. This is enabled by
default but should be disabled on at least one reader port if both reader ports are controlling the same door
(ENTRY and EXIT access control).
y Disabled the reader expander will not send any door events.
Option 3 - LED Follow Lock Status
y Enabled the reader will activate the LED outputs on the reader expander when the lock is opened. This
option DOES not prevent the outputs from being used to display the area armed or alarm status.
y Disabled the reader will not perform any function on the LED outputs.
Option 4 - Bond Sense Input Enable
y Enabled the magnetic bond sense functions. The magnetic bond sense is a contact that indicates if the
magnetic bond between the electromagnet and the clamp is complete. It is used when a separate door
contact and bond sense input are to be used however the generation of door events should be processed
using both inputs.
When opening either of the two contacts open (Door Contact or Bond Sense Input) the door monitoring will
see this as the door being opened and process it accordingly.
y Disabled the reader will not include the bond sense input in the door status processing.
Option 5 - Request To Exit (REX) Enabled
y Enabled the reader expander will generate request to exit events from the REX input on the reader
expander.
y Disabled the keypad will not generate any REX events.
Option 6 - Request To Enter (REN) Enabled
y Enabled the reader expander will generate request to enter events from the REN input on the reader
expander.
y Disabled no action will be taken for the Request To Enter function.
Option 7 - Generate Format Error Events
y Enabled the reader expander will send a detailed format error to the system controller if it receives
information from the reader that does not comply with the programmed format. Format errors include bit
count, byte count, parity, checksum and LRC calculation failures.
y Disabled the reader will silently discard any format error. The format error will still be indicated on the reader
input data LED.
Option 8 - Intelligent Reader Tamper
y Enabled the reader expander will assume that the external device has smart messaging that allows a
communication path to be formed from the reading device (Card Reader) to the reader expander.
i
This allows the reader expander to monitor the reading device and generate a reader missing alarm
(Trouble Zone) if it fails to communicate with the reader expander, allowing the failure to be reported to
a monitoring station. For more information refer to the Nano Prox Programming Manual.
y Disabled the intelligent reader mode is disabled.
