The 5000/5100 stationary batch terminals are intended for versatile data collection
applications with its large and expandable database capacity, and allow programmable
solutions to meet varying needs of customers. Various operational parameters can be
configured, such as backlight control, buzzer control, graphic screen and output
format.
Integrated with a proximity reader and backlit keypad, the 5000 terminal simply
satisfies general needs regarding large data collection. Based on the 5000 terminal,
the 5100 terminal comes with a backlit LCD for displaying information. Alternatively,
both models can make use of a battery pack for achieving a non-interruptible operation
during power outage. Without such power backup, the terminals will not function during
a power fail, but all transaction and configuration data stored in memory will be
maintained by the 3V lithium button cell for at least one week.
The 5000/5100 terminals can be easily added to your legacy networks. Multiple
networking options include RS-232, RS-485 and 10/100Base-T Ethernet. Moreover,
detachable terminal blocks make it easy and flexible to connect with other external
devices, such as a reader, door switch, siren, door sensor, electronic lock, etc.
This manual serves to guide you through how to install, configure, and operate the
5000/5100 terminals. The Care & Maintenance section is specifically prepared for
those who are in charge of taking care of the terminals.
We recommend you to keep one copy of the manual at hand for quick reference or
maintenance purposes. To avoid any improper disposal or operation, please read the
manual thoroughly before use.
Thank you for choosing the CipherLAB products!
