What's in it

Hardware that answers back.

Everything that makes a reader feel real: lights, sound and two ways to scan.

Eight-LED ring

A ring around a centre LED and a light bar, with an animation for every state: a comet when reading, a wipe when access is granted.

Beeper

A distinct tone pattern for reading a card, granting access and denying it.

Two ways to scan

Hold the interaction prompt, or tap a card tool on the reader itself. Touch scanning has a built-in cooldown so it can't be spammed.

Built for XCS

Drops into the XCS access-control framework: create the reader with one line and call its states as the system changes.

Easy to restyle

Colours, prompt text, activation distance and sound all live in a config module, so you don't touch the driver to retheme a reader.

Tells you what's wrong

If the controller doesn't answer, the reader shows a fault pattern and prints a checklist of what to check.

The reader's states

Every colour means something.

The same states the reader runs in-game. Watch the model above cycle through them.

ReadyDim blue ring, lit bar and an occasional blink from the centre LED.
ReadingA white comet circles the ring while the reader beeps.
Access grantedA green wipe around the ring, then solid green and a rising double beep.
Access deniedThree red flashes, then a held red and a low triple beep.
Free accessSteady green with a dimmed ring when the door is disarmed.
FaultA slow amber breathe when the reader is inactive or the controller can't be reached.
