2. ACS actions are determined from presence or absence of the card ID and card status in controller
memory. "Card ID" is also often called a "key", so further in this document we shall consider "card"
and "key" terms equal (e.g. we can say "touch with a card" or "touch with a key" with same effect). The
full list of cards (keys) with their status, stored in controller's memory, is called ACS database.
3.To work with Z-5R Relay Wiegand controller, each new proximity card should be assigned a
"status" (access rights). Status is determined during the card programming, on first approach of the
card to the reader connected to the controller. Therefore, to change a card's status, delete it from the
controller memory, then add it again with the correct status. Please note that to delete a Master card,
the entire controller memory (ACS Database) must be erased or rewritten.
- Card status can be as follows:
- Master card is used for Z-5R Relay Wiegand programming only; never is used for access.
- Normal (Access) card is used for passing through access point (except when in Blocking Mode).
- Blocking card is used for both passing through access point (including when in Blocking Mode), and
enabling/disabling the Blocking Mode.
Note: The Blocking cards open the lock when the card is taken away from the reader.
4. A brand new Z-5R Relay Wiegand controller has empty memory. To operate a Z-5R Relay
Wiegand, first store a Master card information into its memory. This Master card will be used for
device programming. Later we will describe how to write a Master card.
ACS Operating Modes with Z-5R Relay Wiegand:
- Standard Mode access granted for both Normal and Blocking cards.
- Blocking Mode access granted only for Blocking cards, but not for Normal cards. Convenient when
access needs to be temporarily restricted to certain group of people only.
- Accept Mode access is granted for existing Normal and Blocking cards, as well as any new cards.
All new cards used in this mode will be stored into controller's memory, and assigned Normal card
status. Thus after certain time spent operating in this mode, the controller will have built a new ACS
database.
- Trigger Mode emulates a simple lock operation logic. Each card touch leads to a steady change of
state of the controller relay. Thus, when the relay is turned on, one short beep is issued, when turned
off, four short beeps. This mode normally is used with electromagnetic locks, but other devices can
also be used with it. However, please bear in mind that locking devices not designed for extended
operating time, such as electromechanical locks, can fail when operating in this mode.
- Relay mode - in contrast to the Trigger Mode, in this mode the "relay on" state is saved only when
the card is held in the reader field. Typically, readers for such applications are equipped with a special
pocket or other card-holding device. After removing the card relay goes into the "off" state after the
set time for opening the lock.
Attention! To work in "Relay mode", the reader must be connected via iButton protocol.
Audio-visual indication on the controller:
When the card touches the reader connected to the controller, it is either:
- Present in Z-5R Relay Wiegand controller database. The green LED blinks, the buzzer sounds,
the lock is released for specified lock release duration (or until door sensor is triggered).
- Absent from Z-5R Relay Wiegand controller database. The green LED blinks twice, and two
buzzer beeps are emitted.
