Card multi-swipe

You can use double and triple card swipe actions with the KT-1, KT-2, and KT-400 (firmware KT-400: 1.08; KT-400 V1: 1.11).

  1. Click the General tab.
  2. Enable Multi-swipe: Select to enable the multi-swipe function. The Multi-Swipe tab appears. Deselecting disables the multi-swipe function but keeps the parameters entered previously for future use.
  3. Click the Multi-swipe tab.
  4. Schedule: The schedule applies to both the double swipe and triple swipe actions and will need to be valid when the person swipes the card a second time or a third time for the corresponding action to occur.
  5. Delay: There is a maximum delay of 3 seconds between two card swipes to be considered by EntraPass as a double or triple swipe. A beeping sound will be heard two times for the double swipe and three times for the triple swipe. A long beep indicates a denied entry.
  6. Relay: Select a relay to be triggered.
  7. Relock on access on double/triple swipe: Relock on access on double swipe or triple swipe checkbox controls are used to lock the door before executing the double or triple swipe action.
    Note: By default the system sets the unlock time for the door to 10 seconds and the open time to 30 seconds. If the door is kept open for more the 15 seconds after a valid swipe, a Pre alarm door open too long (see the Contact tab) is triggered and the buzzer on the reader starts to beep.

    The pre alarm door open too long delay overrides the default setting for the Open time. For example, if you have an unlock time of 10 seconds and an open time of 2:00 minutes, and tthe Pre alarm door open too long option is selected with a time delay of 00:00:20, 20 seconds before the end of the open time, the system triggers a pre alarm door open too long alarm and the buzzer starts to beep on the reader.

    This feature is only available on a KT-400 with firmware higher then 1.08.
