Overview

This feature enables users to be logged into a device while their card is placed on Network Card Reader (NCR) and logged out when the card is removed from Network Card Reader.

Configuration

This feature is implemented since firmware 1.2.8. To be enabled, continuous card reader protocol has to be set. Contact Customer Support Services for more information about card reader protocols.

  • Run Remote configuration tool for hardware terminals (Termtool)
  • Select Network Card Reader from the list.
  • Select 4) Card reader and IO module setup.
  • Enter the number of the required card reader protocol in the Reader protocol dialog. (For example, for ASK/FSK and Multireader LF/LF+HF, insert 94).
  • Press ENTER and save changes to the terminal.

Using

A user with an assigned card comes to Network Card Reader and places the card on the reader (the card stays on the reader and is not removed). The user is logged in while the card is placed on the terminal. The user can perform prints/scans/copies. After the user has finished, they remove the card from the reader and is logged out.
