Return timeout after reading - System description WO
After a card event, the locking device waits a limited time for a response from the integrator system. This time span is the return timeout.
A response from the integrator system (e.g. an opening command) is only accepted and executed within this time span (online access). If the response is too late or not received at all, the locking device uses the locally saved whitelist after the return timeout expires. Cards on this whitelist then engage the locking device (offline access), all other cards are rejected.
In this case, the user has two options:
- Present card either again (new attempt)
- Use card included in whitelist
The return timeout is a global setting for all locking devices.
