PROGRAMMING THE ENTRACOMP^® 26SA

Functions of the ENTRACOMP^® 26SA are programmed by placing the program cards on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate in a proper sequence. It is helpful to think of placing a program card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate as depressing a key on a keyboard or key pad. You may begin programming at any time by placing the first program card of the sequence on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate. At this point the LED indicator will show an amber color. When you remove the program card from the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, the LED indicator will flash the amber color awaiting the next program card. Placement of the next program card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate causes the amber LED to stop flashing and become solid. In like manner, the remainder of the program cards for the programming sequence are placed on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate. At the end of the programming sequence, the LED indicator will flash green to indicate that the programming instruction has been accepted. While programming, it is necessary to place the next card of the sequence on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate while the LED indicator is flashing amber (you have approximately 10 seconds between each card). If the amber LED times out, it will be necessary to restart the programming sequence. Should an error be made in the programming sequence, the LED indicator will flash red instead of green.

VALIDATING A SINGLE CARD. To validate a single card, place the sequence of program cards representing the card number on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and then place the "VALID" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate.

Example: Validate card number 100.

Place the "1" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "0" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place again the "0" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "VALID" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, and remove it.

VALIDATING A BLOCK OF CARDS. To validate a block (continuous sequence) of cards, place the sequence of cards representing the first card number of the block on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, then the "*" (THRU) card, then the sequence of cards representing the last card number of the block, and then place the "VALID" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate.

Example: Validate cards 5 thru 225.

Place the "5" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "*" (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "2" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and again place the "2" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "5" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "VALID" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, and remove it.

VOIDING CARDS. Cards may also be voided (cancelled) either singly or in blocks. Follow the instructions for validating above, replacing the "VALID" card with the "VOID" card.

SETTING THE LATCH TIMER. The output from the relay may be set to any number of seconds from 1 to 30. To set the latch timer, place on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate the sequence of program cards representing the number of seconds the latch is to be on, then place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

Example: Set latch timer for 15 seconds.

Place the "1" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "5" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, and remove it.

Setting the latch timer to "0" produces a 0.25 second output, timed from when a valid card is placed on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate.

ACTIVE/INACTIVE. The ENTRACOMP^® 26SA may be made inactive for entry by placing the "ACTIVE/INACTIVE" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and then removing it. While the reader is in the inactive mode, the LED indicator will flash red approximately once every second. The unit may not be programmed while it is in the inactive mode. To reactivate the reader, again place the "ACTIVE/INACTIVE" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

DOOR UNLOCK MODE. The relay may be set to stay latched (door unlocked) during periods when access control is unwanted. While in the "DOOR UNLOCK" mode, the relay stays activated, and the LED indicator will flash green approximately once every second. The unit may not be programmed with the programming deck, nor will it recognize access cards while in the "DOOR UNLOCK" mode. To set the unit to the "DOOR UNLOCK" mode, place the "*" (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it and place the "ACTIVE/INACTIVE" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

To return the ENTRACOMP^® 26SA to normal operation, place the "ACTIVE/INACTIVE" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

TIMED ANTIPASSBACK FEATURE. If the Timed Antipassback feature is activated, a card used for entry is made temporarily void for a settable amount of waiting time. The purpose of this feature is to deter a user from "passing back" his card to another for unauthorized entry. When this feature is activated, the maximum ID number that the unit will accept is 1750. When this feature is deactivated, the maximum ID number is 3500.

If you activate the Timed Antipassback feature, cards with ID numbers greater than 1750 will no longer be recognized by the unit. The status (Void or Valid) of cards with ID numbers of 1750 or less will remain unchanged. Once activated, you must set an antipassback waiting time for this feature to be functional (See below).

To activate the Timed Antipassback feature, place the "*" (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it. Then place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it. Then place the "VALID" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

To deactivate the Timed Antipassback feature, place the "0" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it. Then place the "*" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader place and remove it. Then place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

ANTIPASSBACK WAITING TIME. The antipassback waiting time may be set to any number of minutes from 1 to 30. However, the actual waiting time will fluctuate between the time set and twice the time set. Thus, if the antipassback time is set to 5 minutes, users will have to wait a minimum of 5 minutes and a maximum of 10 minutes before reentry will be allowed. Setting the antipassback waiting time to 0 will disable the Antipassback feature and reentry will be allowed immediately. See above to re-activate the Antipassback feature.

To set the antipassback waiting time, place on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate the sequence of cards representing the number of minutes of the minimum waiting period (1 to 30), then place the "*" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader place and remove it, then place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate and remove it.

Example: Set antipassback waiting time to 3 minutes.

Place the "3" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it, and place the "*" on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, remove it, and place the "SET TIMER" card on the TOUCH CARD^® reader plate, and remove it.
