Extra - Add and read an EM of MF card from the door station

In order to give access with an RFID card, the card number must be read.

There are USB card readers that can be used for the PC, but most readers come in FM or EM card readers. We do recommend using one of the Akuvox door stations to read the card for the project.

Using the door station

Open the config page of the door station.

1. Via Intercom > User
2. Click on Add

1. Enter the user ID, Name, and Role
2. Click on Obtain and the card number will appear in the field
3. +Add, to add the card
4. Click on Submit to save

When there are more relays, select the relay that is valid for the card to open.

Using the property manager tool

Login to the property manager tool https://ecloud.akuvox.com/

Now, the way to get the card number is very easy.

Present the card to one of the door stations nearby now when the card is not registered or to a different door station, this will show in the log files.

We see that the card is recognized but failed and also does not belong to a person in that building.

This card can be added to a person. (copy the card number)

To add the card to a person, go to Residents or Visitor & Staff.

Residents

Adding to a resident and click on the resident for whom the card should be.

Then RF Card and New.

Add the card number and submit to save.

The message added successfully will show, and the person can enter the public and the door from his building. (Keep in mind the person's access rights)

Click on New or when the person is already on the list, add the card to the existing person.
