Description
The Smith Meter® Proximity Card Reader is a radio-frequency (RF) -based reader interfaced to a microprocessor-based device capable of interpreting multiple card formats and transmitting card data to the AccuLoad or directly to an automation system.
Applications
The Smith Meter Proximity Card Reader provides a high performance and reliable method of identifying drivers and users to either the AccuLoad or directly to an automation system. It is ideal as a gate reader or an island reader.
Features- Card Reader:
- Mounts to the front of the AccuLoad NEMA-4 (N4) or Split Architecture (SA) man-machine interface (MMI) for Division II-approved areas
- Light-emitting diode (LED) with red, green, yellow, buzzer, and relay, all of which can be remotely controlled by an automation system
- Interfaces directly with the AccuLoad or automation system
- Card authorization valid until programmable timeout expires (1 to 99 minutes)
- Uses serial communications port (EIA-232/485) and Smith protocol communications
- Available for N4, Division II-approved areas, or hazardous locations, Division I-approved areas
- Card:
- Universally compatible with human-interface devices (HID) readers
- External number for easy identification and control
- Custom pre-printed artwork available
- Meets ISO standards for thickness
- Approved for hazardous location operations
