2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Metra Wristband Capturer is a retaining module for Metra RFID wristbands. It is integrated in different Metra MEW products such as Tripod Turnstile and Turnstile Access Terminal.

Ticket retain feature allows re-using of various tickets. For that innovative feature Metra has developed patented in 1998 contact-less “Wristband Capturer” (WBC) together with contactless RFID Wristband.
RFID ISO reader reads ISO 15693, ISO 14443A, ISO 14443B and Mifare compatible RFID media. The Metra Wristband Capturer grants the exit signal only when the ticket is successfully erased and retained. This dramatically cuts costs of the system operation and the chance of fraud. A ticket will be retained under following conditions:
· Retain request written on it/assigned to it. · It is presented to the retaining device.

3 CONNECTIONS

There is a single connector dedicated to power and data (LIN) connection.

*NOTE: Pay attention not to mix MEW and CAN WBC connection.
