This procedure will NOT delete any Credential Devices from reader’s memory.
RESTORE FACTORY DEFAULTS
Enter Program Mode.
Press the following Key sequence to return the reader to factory default settings. NOTE: All programmed Users and Settings will be eliminated from reader memory.
TIMED ANTI-PASSBACK
Timed Anti-Passback is used to discourage card sharing. After one successful card use, the reader will treat that card as invalid for a preset number of minutes. When timed anti-passback is enabled, it will apply to all valid cards.
ENABLE TIMED ANTI-PASSBACK
Enter Program Mode. Press SET TIMER, then press ADD, then press ENTER. SET ANTI-PASSBACK TIMER
Enter Program Mode. Press SET TIMER then press the “Star” (*) Key.
Press the digits representing the maximum number of minutes you want anti- passback to apply (01-99). Press ENTER. NOTE: Anti-passback can be from one to ninety-nine minutes.
Depending upon the clock cycle of the reader when a card is read, the actual anti-passback time may vary.
TIMED ANTI-PASSBACK CONTINUED
DISABLE TIMED ANTI-PASSBACK
Enter Program Mode. Press SET TIMER, then press DELETE, and then press ENTER.
OPERATING MODES
The reader operates in four modes:

1| Active (Normal)|  LED is Off| Avalid card or closure of the remote open input will activate the relay for the time the latch timer is set.
---|---|---|---
2| Inactive (Locked)| LED blinks Red| Deactivates the reader. No card can activate the relay, but the remote open input will activate the relay.
3| Door Unlocked| LED blinks Green| Entrance held open (the relay is kept latched).
4| Toggle Mode| LED is Off| Avalid card is presented or the remote open input is activated, and changes the relay state from deactivated to activated or from activated to deactivated.

SET THE OPERATING MODE
Enter Program Mode. Press MODE, and then press either “1”, “2″, “3”, or “4”. Press ENTER. The reader will exit Programming Mode, and enter the selected Mode. For example, to set the reader to the inactive (locked) mode, the following sequence would be entered: TO EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE IMMEDIATELY
Press MODE, and then “1” (or 2, 3, or 4). Press ENTER. This returns the reader to the selected mode immediately, bypassing the 15-second timeout. CONFIGURE RELAY OUTPUT (N/0 OR N/C)
The reader relay is set at the factory to be normally open and to close upon presentation of a valid Card or upon activation of the remote open (Request to Exit) input, but it may be changed to normally closed operation.
To configure the relay, enter Program Mode. Press the “Star” () Key TWICE. Then press either the “6” or “7”. Press ENTER.
OPTIONS
6 -Normally Open (Factory default)
7 -Normally Closed
For example, to configure the relay normally closed, the following sequence would be entered:
SET THE RELAY LATCH TIMER
(STRIKES AND MAGLOCKS)
Enter Program mode. Press SET TIMER, and then press the digits representing the desired Latch Time (0 – 65535 seconds). Press ENTER. A Green LED and beep indicates Latch Timer setting update.
NOTE: Setting Latch Timer for “0” seconds, actually results in a 0.25 second latch time. For example, to set the latch timer to 15 seconds, the following sequence would be entered: For longer latch times it may be easier to set the timer with hour/minute notation. Press SET TIMER; then press the digits representing the number of hours (2 digits); then press the digits representing the number of minutes; then press the “Star” (
) Key; then press ENTER. (The maximum relay time is 18 hours and 00 minutes.) For example, to set the latch timer for 2 hours and 45 minutes the following sequence would be entered: If you have set an extended latch time, but need to interrupt it, use the following procedure:
Enter Program Mode. Then press SET TIMER, then “1”, and then Enter. After the Program Mode “times out” (15 sec), present a valid card to the reader. After one second, the relay will return to its normal state.
NOTE: You will then have to reprogram the latch timer to the desired time.
The latch timer controls the reader relay. The Default latch time is 1 second, but it can be set to any value from 0.25 seconds to 18 hours. If it is set to 0 seconds, this pulses the reader relay for 0.25 second, sufficient for most gate and door operators.
The beeper and LED are always fixed at one second.
USING THE READER AS A WIEGAND OUTPUT READER —
The reader can be connected to a multi-door access control system using the Wiegand output. When any 34 bit Passport™, 26 bit industry standard or 30 bit Sentex® credential device is presented to the reader, whether or not it has been programmed to the reader, the appropriate Credential Device 1D will be sent out via the white and green wires.
PROGRAMMING THE INPUTS
The reader input is set at the factory as the Remote Open input.
Connecting the brown and black/ground wire (usually through a normally-open push button switch or the contacts from an Exit input) will activate the relay for as long as the button is held, plus the time set for the latch timer. This input may also be configured as an LED Control, in which case grounding the brown wire will turn on the red LED, and grounding the orange wire will turn on the green LED. Additionally, grounding the yellow wire will turn on the beeper, and grounding the blue wire will activate the card data Hold function.
To configure the input, enter Program Mode. Press the “Star” (*) Key TWICE. Then press either the “1” or “2” button. Press ENTER.
Selections are:
1 – Remote Open (Factory Default — Standalone operation)
2 — LED Control (Standard Wiegand Reader Interface)
For example, to program the input for LED control, the following sequence would be used:

OPERATION

USING WIEGAND ACCESS CARDS & TRANSMITTERS WITH **THE READER**
To use the reader, simply hold your Credential Device near the reader.
The reader generates a short range RF field, which causes the Credential Device to send a unique ID Number back to the reader.
If the Credential Device ID Number is stored in memory, the latch relay is activated. A Green light and a beep indicate that access is granted. If the device ID Number is not stored in memory, the relay remains inactive, and a Red light and beep indicate that access is denied. Otherwise, the LED is normally off.
THE READER IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE FOLLOWING LIFTMASTER® WIEGAND CREDENTIALS:

  • Passport™: PPCSC (Card), CPTK13PH & CPTK33PH (Transmitter)
  • Sentex® SNACPH3x & SNACPHISO3x (Card), SNACPKH3x (Transmitter)
  • LiftMaster® Q: CACC & CACISO (Card)

REMOTE OPEN (REQUEST TO EXIT) INPUT
When the Remote Open input is activated, the relay will activate. When the Remote Open input is deactivated, the relay will return to the inactive state after the latch timer times out. A Green LED and a beep indicate that access is granted.
USING THE READER AS A WIEGAND OUTPUT READER
The reader can be connected to a multi-door access control system (such as the LiftMaster® Q2010 Site Control System) using the Wiegand output. When any LiftMaster® Credential Device is presented to the reader, whether or not it has been programmed into the reader, the appropriate Credential Device ID will be sent out via the white and green wires. Refer to “Configure the Reader Input” to control the LED.
