RFT1000 fingerprint readers by means of RogerVDM software. The purpose of the present manual is to describe use of RFT1000 readers beyond RACS 4 system in any third party application requiring user identification by means of fingerprints and/or Mifare proximity card. Whereas use of RFT1000 readers in RACS 4 system made by Roger is described in the document RFT1000 User Manual, which is available at www.roger.pl.

Input lines can be configured by means of RogerVDM software so they could be used for activation of LED indicators and/or buzzer in RFT1000 as well as for switching card reader mode. More information on configuration of inputs is given in section 4.3 Configuration of inputs and LED indicators.
· In case of connection through Ethernet port, twisted pair cable should be unisolated in the shortest possible distance and wires should remain twisted in the longest possible distance. · RFT1000 can be mounted to the wall be means of screws on standard flush mounting box (Ø 65 mm).

More information on recognition mode is given in section 4.4 Recognition modes In case of 1:N recognition mode: · when the input is activated then RFT1000 both scans fingerprints and reads proximity cards · when the input is deactivated then RFT1000...
Configuration in RogerVDM software (see fig. 5). 4.4.1 Mode 1:N In 1:N mode, list of users is recorded in RFT1000 memory. Each user should have his ID number, card number, and 1 to 10 fingerprint templates. The identification of user in 1:N mode consists in reading his fingerprint or card number by RFT1000.
After activation of Master authorization option, users with such attribute are not obliged to scan their fingerprints for all RFT1000 readers with Accept authorization master option in General settings area (see fig. 5) activated. For such user, card number is sufficient for is identification.
Fig. 6 User enrolment window in RogerVDM software Fig. 7 Card programming window in RogerVDM software 4.6 Card code Mifare Classic and Mifare Ultralight cards have their read-only serial numbers called CSN and memory, where administrator defined number called SSN can be stored. Optional SSN code provides additional security as it can be saved in administrator defined sector and it can be protected with access code against unauthorized reading.
Default settings of RFT1000 reader in Card code area is as follows: CSN code length = 7, SSN code length = 0. In case of such settings, the RFT1000 reads 7 bytes of CSN code only. In case of exemplary settings: CSN code length = 4, SSN code length = 4, RFT1000 reader during card identification would read code consisting of 4 bytes of CSN code and 4 bytes of SSN code.
1. Select the option Tools in the top menu of RogerVDM software and then select Update firmware 2. In the newly opened window select RFT1000 firmware file (*.frg extension) by means of the button Select file 3. Select the button Update in order to upload the firmware to RFT1000 RFT1000 keeps all its settings (including IP address) after firmware update.
