Preparing the Reader for Standalone Mode (Offline mode)
If the unit is dedicated to Standalone Mode (autonomic operation) then programming procedure
must be followed:
1. Configure the reader to either Full or Simple Standalone Mode operating mode and
program MASTER and INSTALLER cards and/or PIN-s ( Memory Reset )
2. Configure the reader for specific installation scenario ( Installer Programming )
3. Program cards and PIN-s for users ( User Programming )
Alternatively all three steps can be programmed entirely from the RARC program when reader is
connected to PC.

6.1.1. Programming Through Multiple Readings of the Programming Card
Although some readers are not equipped with keypad they can still be programmed manually with
the same programming procedures as readers with keypads. The difference in programming is such
that instead of pressing certain keys (like you normally do when programming readers with
keypad) you must emulate key pressing by multiple readings of
Programming Card . For example
in order to emulate key [9] you must read Programming Card 9-times (simply present it to the
reader and take it back 9 times) and then wait approx. 3 seconds for the reader to generate a
confirmation signal (two beeps) which means that series of card readings is accepted as an
equivalent of key pressing and the reader is now waiting for the next step of the programming
procedure.
Use following cards as
Programming Cards :
 In the Installer Programming use INSTALLER card
 in the User Programming use MASTER card
 in the Memory Reset procedure use any MIFARE proximity card
Key Emulation Method
[1]..[9] Read card [N]-times where [N] is equal to programmed digit
[0] Read Programming Card 10-times
[*] Read Programming Card 11-times
[#] Read Programming Card 12-times
Note: Each time you complete the sequence of multiple readings of the programming card
wait for the reader to generate signal (two beeps) which will confirm that reader has
accepted series of card readings as the equivalent of key pressing.
Example: In order to enter following programming sequence [*][1][0][ID][#] where ID=113 do
following:
1. [*]: Read 11-times programming card and then wait for two beeps
2. [1]: Read 1-time programming card and then wait for two beeps
3. [0]: Read 10-times programming card and then wait for two beeps
4. [1]: Read 1-time programming card and then wait for two beeps
5. [1]: Read 1-time programming card and then wait for two beeps
6. [3]: Read 3-times programming card and then wait for two beeps
7. [#]: Read 12-times programming card and then wait for two beeps
Note: Reader which is not equipped with keypad can be configured with Programming card or
from another external reader with keypad but the recommended method is to use RARC software.
6.1.2. Programming From The External Reader
In this case, the primary reader should be configured for [030]: Offline Mode, Full Standalone while
secondary reader must be configured for [000]: Online mode, RACS address ID=0 and connected
via CLK and DTA lines to primary reader (for details see wiring diagram for Full Standalone Mode).
Once two readers are connected all programming procedures are made on keypad located on
