RCP78R dedicated RFID reader

Application

RCP78R reader for contact identity cards (electronic memory chip cards) is destined to work in RCPX8 working time registration and access control system. RCP78R reader is designed to register such events as entry/exit/exit on duty and to control the access to machines and buildings. Every entry/exit event is stored in the reader's memory. At a request, the data from a reader can be sent to a computer through the serial bus. Electronic cards reader may also work outside RCPX8 system network (stand-alone system) and register the occurring events. It is possible thanks to the storage of a configuration, of a table of access rights for every employee and of an inner time-clock supplied by a battery, in the reader's memory. In this case, a contact between the reader and the computer is required for the time of the proper configuration of the reader.
 

Construction

RCP78R reader is water-proof. It has a compact steel cage (available in two colours: light gray and black), fit for installation on a wall. The reader is equipped with an electronic microprocessor circuit. It has an independent time-clock with supply maintenance.
 

The principle of operation

Placing an authorized identity card in a special slotted hole in the reader (a place on the cover described by a special graphics) causes registration of an event in the reader's memory. Readers control the access to rooms rooms by starting e.g. an electrical door lock. The non-volatile memory allows to register approx. 40 000 events. The events registered are analyzed by a computer program as RCP events (work time) or KD (access control) – depending on how the reader has been configured. The front wall of the reader is equipped with a three-key keypad, three signalling LEDs, four-sign display, and a marked slotted hole in which a contact identity card has to be placed in order to regster an event. By pressing appropriate key, the event which is to be registered is specified (the reader can be set to work without any need to use the keypad.) The display shows present date and hour and, in a moment of registration of an employee, also the employee's number.
An appropriately installed reader signals proper functioning of the device: it displays present hour and lights a LED (the colour depends on the type of the registered event). Placing an authorized identity card in a special slotted hole in the reader causes registration of an event in the reader's memory. A short sound signal and displaying an employee's number (from 1 to 999 with letter c at the beginning) are a confirmation that an event has been registered. It is recommended to have three-seconds break between the registered events. Readers control the access to rooms by starting e.g. an electrical door lock. The non-volatile memory allows to register 42 000 events.
