T&A in: Time & Attendance in. This type of reader (which gives an IN status) is
used to enter an area. This reader will not release a door a second time until that
badge is presented to a T&A out reader connected to the same micro or, if you
selected Enable global T&A on the Settings Tab of the Parameters Form, a
different micro.

T&A out: Time & Attendance out. This type of reader (which gives an OUT status)
is used to leave an area. This reader will not release a door a second time until
that badge is presented to a T&A in reader connected to the same micro or, if you
selected Enable global T&A on the Settings Tab of the Parameters Form, a
different micro.

In required: This type of reader will open the door only if the badge presented
currently has an IN status. For example, if you had a badge with a status of OUT
and attempted to gain access through a reader that was marked as In required,
the door would not open.

Elevator: This type of reader is used for elevator control. This is set up using the
Elevator Tab of the Elevator Form.

T&A In/Out: Time & Attendance In/Out. This type of reader is used ONLY for
Wiegand Swipe Readers, such as the Model 100.
To get an IN status, hold the badge so that the front of the badge is facing you.
(The logo is usually printed on the front of the badge.) Then swipe the badge
through the reader.
To get an OUT status, turn the badge around so that the back of the badge is
now facing you. Swipe the badge through the reader.

APB and
T&A
Settings

Passive

APB

and T&A: If you are using an anti-passback (APB) reader or time

and attendance (T&A) reader, enable this field for the reader to function as a
Normal type reader thereby allowing any valid badge to unlock the door
regardless of the badge’s IN/OUT status. However, the badge’s status will still be
logged as IN or OUT according to the reader used and will be recorded as such
in the badge history. Use this if you want to record APB or T&A without
preventing unauthorized persons from accessing doors.
Example: Timing begins when a badge is presented to an IN reader. Until that
time expires, the user cannot enter again regardless whether they went through
an OUT reader. If a user tries to go through the IN reader a second time, the
micro sends an invalid Timed APB message to the host.

Timed APB (min): This field is enabled when you select a Logical type as ‘APB
in.’ The default of this field is ‘0.’ Enter a number between 0 and 255.

Keypad PIN

Max Invalid PIN Count: 1) Select this checkbox if you want your Secure Perfect
system to suspend badges after an invalid PIN is entered and a badge is
presented at a reader a configured number of times. 2) Then, enter a number
between 1 and 6 as the number of times an invalid PIN code is entered at a
system reader before the badge is suspended. The default of this field is ‘3.’ 3) If
suspended, the badge must be changed to active by a system administrator.

If the Parameter Form is set to grant access on duress, access will be granted

and the badge transaction will display as Valid Duress. If the Parameter Form is not
set to grant access on duress, the door will not open and the transaction will be
Invalid Duress. If set to monitor, an alarm will be generated in both instances.

Enable
‘Valid No
Passage’

Select this checkbox if you want your Secure Perfect system to notify you when a
valid badge read occurs but the door did not open within the configured unlock time.
This may be an indication of someone deciding not to pass through the door, or an
accidental read as someone passes a reader.

This feature must be associated with an alarm type of door forced or door held in
order to be notified of a change in state of the door.

In order to notify of a duress situation,

Grant Access on Duress

must be

configured.
