Duration of Use Function
Free locker mode also offers the possibility to define a duration of use for each locker. If a locker with this function is
locked with a data carrier, the current time is written onto the data carrier and the time subsequently checked when
the user attempts to open the locker again. With PIN code entry, this function is also possible. The timer resets after
a new PIN code has been entered.
The locker can be locked/unlocked as often as required during the duration of use period. If the duration of use
period is exceeded, the data carrier can no longer unlock the locker. In this case, the user must recode their data
carrier at a central station, e.g., at a GAT Info or GT7 Terminal.
NOTE!
The data carriers must be coded accordingly for the duration of use function (the corresponding config bits
on the data carrier must be set). The GL7p must also be configured for the function
(see section “5.4.4. Duration of
”). There are two configuration modes for the function:
-
Absolute duration of use (“Duration” function)
In this mode, a usa
ge period (depending on the “Time limit” parameter in minutes or hours, see "5.4.10
Configuration Settings Table") is configured. After locking a locker, the user must unlock the locker again within
the defined period. The period begins from when the locker was first locked.
Example:
The time is set to 360 minutes. If the locker is locked at 17:00, it can be unlocked until 23:00. If the locker is locked
at 21:00, it can be unlocked until 03:00 of the next day. The duration of use time is reset after the locker remains
open for 60 minutes.
- Use up to a spe
cific time after midnight (“Point of time” function)
In this mode, a time is configured up to which the locker can be used every day. After locking a locker, the locker
must be unlocked before the defined time. The usage period starts from the configured time after midnight.
Example:
The time is set to 120 minutes. As the calculation begins at midnight, the locker can be used until 02:00 the
following day regardless of when the locker was locked. If the locker is locked, e.g., at 01:00, it can be unlocked
until 02:00 of the following day. If the locker remains locked past this time, the data carrier can no longer unlock
the locker. In this case, the user must release the data carrier at a central station.
