TRANSIT Entry 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Nedap’s handsfree access solution represents the latest in technology for secure handsfree doors access and other RFID applications. TRANSIT Entry combines the convenience of traditional door automation with the security of restricted areas. It makes a perfect fit to any door or vehicle gate environment where handsfree access is required. The system reads at distances up to 4 meter (12 feet) reliable and consistently. This has great appeal to people, especially in situations where it is inconvenient to use their hands when presenting an ID badge when accessing a door, but where high security needs to be maintained. Moreover it offers handsfree vehicle access to gated areas. Vehicles are identified at a range up to 4 meters (12 feet), without the hassle of having to open the window to present a card. The handsfree access system is made up of a TRANSIT Entry reader and a transponder. TRANSIT Entry readers are installed next to a door or gate. A long range transponder visible in line of sight of the reader will be identified at distances up to 4 meter (12 feet). 1.2 OPTIONAL CARD TECHNOLOGY READER INTERFACE The TRANSIT Entry reader also features an optional proximity and ISO compliant smartcard interface. This Multi-Technology Reader Module (MTR) enables the reader to read standard proximity cards and smartcard CSN. This also allows the reader to operate with existing credentials when presented to the face of the reader. The MTR supports the following card technologies: • 120-125 kHz: HID prox, Nedap and EM read-only. • 13.56 MHz: HID iClass CSN, MIFARE, LEGIC Advant UID, ISO14443A and ISO15693. © Nedap IDEAS, P.O.

In chapter 5 all LED indicators are described. © Nedap IDEAS, P.O. Box 103, NL-7140 AC GROENLO Page 23 of 27
TRANSIT Entry 8 IDENTIFICATION The TRANSIT Entry reader is always reading (except when disabled with the read disable input, see chapter 3.3.2). Automatically upon identification of a transponder the relay will be activated, the ‘smile’ lights-up and an event message is generated on the communication interface(s). 8.1 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE The TRANSIT Entry was designed to implement secure handsfree access. The system reads at distances up to 4 meters (12 feet). This has great appeal, especially in situations where people cannot use their hands to present their ID badge. Moreover it offers handsfree vehicle access to gated areas. Vehicles are identified at range, without having to open the window to present a card. Only line-of-sight between transponder and reader is required. On-site adjustable read-range in case of cross over reading (see chapter 7). On-site adjustment of the frequency channel to avoid radio interference (see chapter 6). 8.2 USING THE MTR MODULE The TRANSIT Entry reader can be featured with an optional proximity and ISO compliant smartcard interface, called Multi-Technology Reader Module (MTR). This MTR interface will enable the reader to read standard proximity cards and smartcard CSN, allowing it to operate with existing credentials at short range, when presented to the face of the reader. See chapter 2.4 for more information about installing the MTR board. The MTR eliminates the need for multiple readers mounted next to a door or gate. Please refer to the MTR manual for more details. The following card types are supported with the MTR: • 120-125 kHz: HID prox, Nedap and EM read-only. • 13.56 MHz: HID iClass CSN, MIFARE, ISO14443A and ISO15693. Proximity cards must be presented to the circle on the front cover of the TRANSIT Entry reader. The MTR reads from all supported transponder types their card serial number. For Mifare Classic and Ultralight cards optionally the MTR can be configured to read data from a (secured) sector. Configuration is done with a configuration card, which can be programmed with the ‘Smartcard-Booster Config’ software. This software can be downloaded from our website www.nedapavi.com. Note: It is not possible to install the MTR module together with an additional interface board, such as the TCP/IP interface board. © Nedap IDEAS, P.O. Box 103, NL-7140 AC GROENLO Page 24 of 27
