Ins-30053 OEM hands free keycard
Battery replacement
The keycard has been designed with features to extend battery life, these include a two second timeout once
access has been granted and a capability to prevent repeated access to the same door whilst the keyfob remains
in the field of the reader. Leaving the keycard in the field of a reader will reduce battery life.
Remove the screw on the back of the card. Open the case by inserting a flat head screw driver in the slot at
the bottom of the card and gently prising the case open. Remove the circuit board and replace the batteries.
Replace the circuit board, casing cover, screw and label.
Interface Settings
To enable the buttons, the keycard must first be presented to the P series reader and then used in hands free
mode. The keycard stores the details of this interface and can then activate the door using a button.
It can also be used in normal hands free mode and also in local passive mode with other standard readers.
The keycard can store up to 14 doors, seven for each button.
Data Reset
To clear the stored gate information from the keycard hold down both buttons for 3 seconds.
The system comprises of a hands free interface, a compatible reader (see specification table) and hands free
keycards or keyfobs. The system operates by using the field being transmitted by the P series reader to wake up
the token. This then communicates with the interface which contains a long range receiver.
The keycard increases this effective read range to typically 5 m (maximum 50 m). This is achieved by activating
the system manually instead of using the reader field.
OEM keycards also include a standard EM4100 proximity ID chip and can therefore be presented to any compatible
proximity reader whether they are using the hands free interface or not.
