RI-130 Reader Interface Installation & User's Guide
Tech Tip 4 – Find the Encoded # on a Card
1. Access Gold and Panelcom or ASI 2000 and Panel Manager need to be
running.
2. Open Monitor Activity (AG) or Transaction Monitor (ASI 2000) to watch the
real time transactions.
3. Present the card to the reader.
4. Read the encoded number from the transaction screen.
Tech Tip 5 – Find the Device # of a Reader Interface (Access Gold Only)
1. Access Gold and Panelcom need to be running.
2. Send a signal from the RI-130 by changing the state of a monitor point or
presenting a card.
3. In the transaction screen, the signal that was just sent up from the RI-130
should be reported.
4. If nothing is reported then there is no communications to the Host.
5. If there is not a device # assigned to the RI-130, the message “Undefined
Reader” will report along with the channel and port #’s.
6. Look up the Device number, Channel and Port in Device Definitions/Device
Manager for information on the device such as the panel #, channel #, port #,
Go and Shunt times, etc.
Tech Tip 6 – Clear the RI-130 Transaction Buffer
1. There are a couple cases that a user would need to clear the transaction buffer
of the RI-130. When improperly applying power to the RI-130 before hooking
up the Reader, the buffer will fill up with a bogus transaction, which needs to
be cleared. The bogus transaction is “66665 Unknown Card, Access Denied”
2. Power down the RI-130
3. Take the upper board (io312 board) off of the RI-130 lower board (cpu11
board).
4. Locate the Toshiba chip. Note there are 3 layers with this chip. The top chip is
the Toshiba chip, the middle layer is battery, the third layer is the socket that
is populated on the board.
5. Remove the Toshiba chip from the middle layer (the battery chip) and wait 10
seconds.
6. Place the Toshiba chip, and the IO312 board, back onto the RI-130.
7. Reapply power to the RI-130.
