partitions the user is allowed to control. Therefore, if a key is held in the
vicinity of a reader, it will be possible to control only the partitions which
the two devices have in common.
Each reader and each key can be programmed with up to 4 shortcuts. The
user or the installer can choose, for each key, which shortcut to activate
between the key or the reader shortcut.
Unlike most traditional readers (which generally carry out arm/disarm
operations only), ABy readers also manage a series of useful shortcut
commands. For example, it is possible to associate two shortcuts with the
red and blue LEDs for arm and disarm operations, and a shortcut to the
green LED for gate control, and yet another to the yellow LED for "Clear
call queue" operations.
The buzzer signals the running entry, exit and pre-arm time of the reader
partitions (refer to paragraph 2-3-6 Signalling on the Buzzer).
Signalling on the Reader LEDs
The LEDs have two distinct operating in modes:
1. If no key is present at the reader (refer to Table 5: Reader LEDs with
no key at reader), the LEDs will show the current operating status of
the reader partitions.
2. If a key is present at the reader (refer to Table 6: Reader LEDs with
key at reader), the LEDs will indicate (in rapid succession) the short-
cuts available for selection.
