What You Can Change with This Menu
The setup menu lets you change these settings:
Set Reader Mode:
This lets you choose the network master. Only one device in a network
can be a master.
Set Address:
This controls the reader’s network address. There may be up to 32 readers
in a network, each with a different address number (0-31).
Set Host Connection:
This sets the network connection interface, such as Ethernet or
serial (RS-485, RS-232).
Set Secondary Finger:
This lets you set an alternate finger as a duress signal, which
indicates that the user is in danger or being forced to give someone access.
Set LED/Beeper:
This controls whether the reader beeps when you press the keys and
when the reader recognizes or fails to recognize the user. It also controls whether the
reader or an external device (typically an access panel) controls the reader’s LED and
beeper.
Set ID Length:
If user IDs are all the same length, this lets the reader automatically
continue without the users pressing enter after typing the ID.
Set Language:
This lets you change the language used for the reader’s display.
Memory Upgrade:
This lets you increase the number of users the reader can store.
