Reader Templates

Use a reader template to define how a reader is configured. Reader templates can only be used for ioSmart card readers in RS-485 mode. Creating a template allows the same configuration to be shared across a number of card readers. To create a reader template complete the following steps:

1 - Click the Devices tab.

2 - Click Reader template from the menu. When the Reader template window appears, click the New icon to enable editing.

3 - Select the Status bar LED color, Buzzer, and Backlight setting for each State of the reader.

4 - Select the Send UID option for the reader. Use this option to define which type of card is accepted by the reader.

•  Never. Only send card ID from ioSmart Cards

•  When not ioSmart card. Send card ID from ioSmart cards and UID from non ioSmart cards.

•  Always (No encryption). Always send UID from a card.

5 - Select the HID 125 kHz and ISO 14438B options to define the card technology.

6 - Select the Keypad backlight intensity when in idle mode.

7 - Set the delays for the LED flash duration (ms), Buzzer signal duration(ms), and Keypad backlight duration(s).
