The contents of this tab depends on the actual outputs that are physically connected to the reader.
Figure 172. Example of an Output Configuration tab
To access this view from the main menu click , followed by double-clicking a module row in the table, clicking the Doors tab, clicking the hyperlink for a door, clicking the hyperlink for the door’s reader, and clicking the Output Configuration tab.
In the example the red LED, green LED, and beeper are connected to the reader interface. The hyperlinked headings open additional
views.
Best Practice: Configure all readers in the building to function in exactly the same way regardless of the type of door lock.
Otherwise, occupants will always be trying to figure out what the lights mean.

Description |
| Valid Green |
drop-down list |
Specifies how the green LED displays when an access granted signal is received.
Inactive leaves the current state of the green LED unchanged when the reader receives an access granted input.
Unlock Time activates the reader's green LED for the amount of time defined by the Unlock Time.
Follow Strike State changes the state of the reader's green LED based upon the state (locked or unlocked) of the designated door strike. This
is not a good choice for an invalid condition because nothing changes state when a request is invalid.
Custom Time activates the reader's green LED for the amount of time you designate in the associated Seconds property.
Burst activates the reader's green LED in a pattern you define using the associated On, Off, and Burst properties.
|
| Green Inactive State |
open or closed |
Defines what an inactive green LED means in relationship to the state of the door strike. Use this property to configure this
inactive state to match your actual hardware requirements.
open configures what inactive means when the door strike is open.
closed configures what inactive means when the door strike is closed.
|
| Invalid Red |
drop-down list |
Specifies how the red LED displays when an access denied signal is received.
Inactive leaves the current state of the red LED unchanged when the reader receives an access granted input.
Unlock Time activates the reader's red LED for the amount of time defined by the Unlock Time.
Follow Strike State changes the state of the reader's red LED based upon the state (locked or unlocked) of the designated door strike. This is
not a good choice for an invalid condition because nothing changes state when a request is invalid.
Custom Time activates the reader's red LED for the amount of time you designate in the associated Seconds property.
Burst activates the reader's red LED in a pattern you define using the associated On, Off, and Burst properties.
The Follow Strike State option is not a valid choice for the Invalid Red property because the Strike does not change state for an invalid credential.
|
| Red Inactive State |
open or closed |
Defines what an inactive red LED means in relationship to the state of the door strike. Use this property to configure this
inactive state to match your actual hardware requirements.

Unlock Time sounds the reader's beeper for the amount of time defined by the Unlock Time.
Follow Strike State changes the state of the reader's beeper based upon the state (locked or unlocked) of the designated door strike. This is
not a good choice for an invalid condition because nothing changes state when a request is invalid.

how the beeper sounds when an access denied signal is received.
Inactive leaves the current state of the beeper unchanged when the reader receives an access granted input.
Unlock Time sounds the reader's beeper for the amount of time defined by the Unlock Time.
Follow Strike State changes the state of the reader's beeper based upon the state (locked or unlocked) of the designated door strike. This is
not a good choice for an invalid condition because nothing changes state when a request is invalid.
Custom Time sounds the reader's beeper for the amount of time you designate in the associated Secondsproperty.
Burst sounds the reader's beeper in a pattern you define using the associated On, Off, and Burst properties.
|
| Beeper Inactive State |
open or closed |
Identifies the state of the output that does not activate the beeper.
open configures what inactive means when the door strike is open.
closed configures what inactive means when the door strike is closed.
|
| Beeper on Door Held Open Alarm |
drop-down list |
Activates and configures the beep sound associated with a door-held-open alarm.
Inactive disables the beep sound.
Warning only provides a beep that precedes the actual alarm condition by the number of seconds specified by Warning Time. For example, if Door Held Open Limit is 60 seconds, 30 seconds after the door opens the warning beep sounds and stops either when the door closes or when the
door sensor goes into an alarm condition.
Continuous provides a warning-time beep, however, at the end of the Warning Time, the beep continues to sound until either the door closes or the Maximum Continuation Time is reached. You specify this time in minutes and seconds using the Max Continuation text box.
|
| Intrusion Beep (visible only when the reader is assigned to an intrusion zone) |
true or false |
Provides an intrusion zone beep.
This property replaces Beeper on Door Held Open Alarm when a reader is assigned to an intrusion zone. Also, some properties are not available for editing and appear dimmed (read-only).
true enables the intrusion beep.
