8. Maintenance

8.1 Restore Factory Settings

There are several methods to restore the device to factory settings. Note that registered users are generally not lost with these methods, but configuration settings will revert to default.

8.1.1 Method 1: Jumper Cap

1. Plug in the jumper cap on the back of the card reader.
2. Power on the device. You will hear two beeps, and the yellow light will flash.
3. Swipe the first card to be the Add Card.
4. Swipe the second card to be the Delete Card.
5. The system will automatically exit after registration.
6. Important: Remove the jumper cap.
7. This resets Administrator password, public password, Wiegand output mode, relay status, door time, and door mode to factory defaults. Registered users are not lost.

8.1.2 Method 2: PUSH Line (for Admin Card setup)

1. Press and hold the door button (short-circuit PUSH line and GND).
2. Power on the device. You will hear two beeps, and the yellow light will flash. Release the button.
3. Swipe the first card to be the Add Card.
4. Swipe the second card to be the Delete Card.
5. The system will automatically exit after registration.
6. This resets Administrator password, public password, Wiegand output mode, relay status, door time, and door mode to factory defaults. Registered users are not lost.

8.1.3 Method 2 (Alternative): PUSH Line (without Admin Card setup)

1. Press and hold the door button (short-circuit PUSH line and GND) for 5 seconds.
2. Wait until the machine emits one beep and the green light turns on. Release the button.
3. This resets Administrator password, public password, Wiegand output mode, relay status, door time, and door mode to factory defaults. Registered users are not lost.

8.1.4 Method 3: Via Menu (Full Settings Reset)

This method resets all configurable parameters to factory defaults while preserving registered user data.

1. Enter programming mode: # + Administrator Password + #.
2. Press 100 + # + Administrator Password + #.
3. Press * to exit.
4. This resets Administrator password, public password, Wiegand output mode, relay status, door opening time, and door opening mode to factory defaults. Registered users are not lost.

9. User Tips

• Card Compatibility: This device supports 13.56Mhz and 125Khz dual-band cards (ID/IC). Ensure your cards are compatible for seamless operation.
• Third-Party Integration: The access controller provides Wiegand output (26-bit to 34-bit). For integration with third-party systems like TTlock, verify if the third-party system supports Wiegand input. Direct integration with proprietary systems like TTlock may not be supported without an additional Wiegand converter or specific integration module.
• Virtual Password Security: Utilize the virtual password feature to enhance security. By entering random digits before or after your actual password, you can prevent others from easily guessing your code through observation.
