HandKey II Manual
45
In HandReader networks, one HandReader must be set as a Master HandReader and
all remaining HandReaders must be set as Remote HandReaders. The default Reader
Mode is Remote mode. Reader Mode does not apply to stand-alone HandReaders or
HandReaders in a PC network (the HandReader should be left in its default value).
All remote HandReaders on a HandReader network must have a unique address. Refer
to the Set Reader Address section on page 43.
The HandReader’s display can tell you if a reader has been configured as a Master
Reader or a Remote Reader.
A Master Reader has double-dashes surrounding the “READY” text.
= READY =
TIME DATE
A Remote Reader has single-dashes surrounding the “READY” text.
- READY -
TIME DATE
The Set Serial command allows you to select either the RS-485, RS-422 or RS-232
communication mode and to set the baud rate for the selected communication mode.
The default baud rate is 9600 bps which is suitable for most network communication
applications. If the HandReader uses the Ethernet communication option, the TCP/IP
address, gateway, and host bit parameters are set instead of the baud rate.
The Set Duress Code command allows a special digit code to be defined that, when
entered before a user’s PIN entry, sends a silent alarm to security personnel using an
auxiliary output. This function only works with keypad ID number entry systems – it does
not work with Card Reader entry systems. If a Duress Code is set, an ID Length cannot
be set by the Set ID Length command.
For this function to work properly the following must be true: an auxiliary output must be
defined to activate on DURESS and assigned ID numbers cannot begin with the duress
code number.
The Set Beeper command allows the beeper to be enabled or disabled. When enabled,
the beeper sounds an audible response to key strokes and events.
For instructions on how to upgrade the memory of the HandReader please refer to the
Memory Upgrade Note.
