How Does it Work
The receiver and access card work together to provide secure access to a system or network.
The access card, also known as a proximity card, contains a microchip that stores a unique code or identification number.
This code is used to authenticate the user and grant access to the system or network.
The receiver, on the other hand, is a device that reads the information stored on the access card.
It uses radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to detect the presence of the access card and retrieve the stored code.
The receiver then sends the code to a central server or database for verification.
The server checks the code against a list of authorized users and grants access if the code matches.
Access is typically granted through a door or gate, which is unlocked electronically upon verification.
In some systems, the receiver may also be linked to other devices, such as cameras or alarms, to provide additional security features.
