AWID's XP-3620 UHF Switchplate-Type Reader is the link between card access by people at doors in buildings, and vehicle access at gates for parking. The XP-3620reads the same UHF hand-held cards and tags that drivers use for vehicle identification and gate control at a parking facility. These cards and tags arecompatible with AWID's LR-2000, LR-2200 and LR-3000 long-range readers and their "HiLo" sets. The enclosure is a striking, deep black design.

Installation The XP-3620 reader fits perfectly on a single-gang electrical utility box, a wall, or other surface, using two screws (supplied).With simultaneous Wiegand and RS-232 data output, the XP-3620 reader can be interfaced for a wide variety of access control, special system control, and cardholder identification
applications.

FeaturesThe reader's 2-color LEDs and beeper are controlled by the reader itself. No external wiring is required for this feedback.

The XP-3620 is self-testing, using its LED and beeper as indicators. It needs no interface to a controller to show that it is performing correctly. The reader can be demonstrated with nothing more than a DC power source (even a battery) and a card or tag

Operation The XP-3620 reader operates in "repeat read" mode. While a card or tag is held in the reader's read range, it transmits the card's code twice every second. Repeated LED and beeper signals alert the user to remove the card from the reader.

Environment The XP-3620reader may be installed indoors or outdoors. The reader is secure when its cover is in place after installation. The electronic circuits are protected from moisture. The reader may be exposed directly to rain, water sprinklers, snow, or bright sunlight in a hot environment.

Credentials The hand-held cards and tags for the XP-3620 are the same as the credentials that AWID offers for its UHF long-range readers in gate applications for vehicle access. Encoding in the cards and tag has the same format and data fields as in AWID's credentials for all other reader types.

The XP-3620 reader's read range is up to 6 inches. (Mounting the XP-3620 directly on metal slightly reduces the read range.) Presenting any AWID UHF card or tag to the reader causes the beeper to sound and the LED to change color momentarily.
