Independent Button Control
Another significant improvement is independent button control. Receptor Strip v2.03.01 and prior versions
used buttons wired through the iFob, meaning that when the button was pressed, it disconnected the iFob so
as it could not be detected. The problem with this is if a large bunch of keys pushes on a button whilst no
user is logged into the system (cabinet door is open), the iFob goes undetectable.
The IRS solves the
problem by wiring the iFob and Button independently of each
other. Therefore if a large bunch of keys does happen to press against a button, it has no effect on the status
of the iFob.
RFID Reader
Each IRS also has the ability to be fitted with an RFID (radio frequency identification) reader. It is possible to
use the IRS PCB in conjunction with the Traka RFID Reader PCB (as used in our RFID lockers) to read RFID
tags instead of iFobs.
iFob Connector
The iFob contacts on the IRS have also been brought out to a connector. This can be used for special projects
that require the use of the IRS but need receptor sockets that are not directly screwed to the PCB.
