The Virdi reader is configured as follows:

1. Go to the settings panel of the Virdi Reader object, which is created on the basis of the Virdi ACU object.

2. From the Reader number drop-down list (1), select the reader number from 1 to 12.

   The Reader type drop-down list (2) indicates the type of reader. This parameter value cannot be changed.

   
   

3. From the Open time drop-down list (3), select the time in seconds for which the door will be open after successful user authentication: from 1s to 255s.
4. From the Reader mode drop-down list (4), select the access grant mode:
   • Access only - after successful user authentication, the door assigned to the reader will be open for the time specified in the Open time parameter.

   • Access + Security - after successful user authentication, the door assigned to the reader will be open for the time specified in the Open time parameter. If the F1 key is pressed on the controller, then after successful user authentication, the partition assigned to the reader and user will be automatically armed. If the partition is already armed, it will be automatically disarmed and the door will be unlocked.

     If the Access + Security mode is selected, then user authentication will be performed in Offline mode, regardless of the specified controller authentication mode (see Virdi ACU system settings).

   • Disabled - mode is disabled.

   • Timed Passback (temporary) - strict mode is used during the specified time after entering the zone, and after this time expires, the soft mode is used.

     Timed Passback is not available if antipassback is controlled by the Server (see Virdi ACU system settings).
