Access Codes and Cards

Depending on how the system is configured, the user will have an access
code that can be entered or a magnetic stripe card that can be swiped.
When the user approaches the keypad, the standard display message will
be shown on the display.
The display and keypad are backlit at a low level to conserve power when
no one is using the device. This low level is sufficient to read the display
at night. As soon as a customer presses the * key, the display comes to
full brightness.
Access Codes. To enter a code, the user presses *. The following message
will be displayed.
The user enters their access code using the touchpad and presses the
# key. The keypad will send the code to the controller and wait for a
response while the keypad goes through the security checks described in
the Security Checks section. The message on the display will change to
the following while waiting for a response.
Magnetic Stripe Cards or Proximity Cards. When the device is set to
use magnetic stripe cards or proximity cards, the user swipes his or her
card through the slot in the card reader or waves the card in front of the
proximity device on the front of the unit.
The magnetic stripe on the card must be aligned to pass through the slot
facing the left side of the reader. If the unit is not able to read the card
correctly through the slot or the Wiegand device or if there is an error on
the card, the following message will be displayed:
