# Readers actions

It is used to control reader actions.

Readers action - status filtering

Warning

If the action is in the status Marked for processing and Processing, further actions on the given reader will not take place until these are completed. Therefore, in this case it is better to have the action end with an error.

# Filtering

Like most tables in this system, this one can be filtered. This is filtering by:

ID
Reader
Reader code
Action
Status
Date and time of creation
Parameter 1
Parameter 2
Parameter 3
Text 1
Text 2
Text 3
Error
Error report

On some filters such as Reader, Action, Status you can choose from options other than e.g. Date and time of creation, Text 1, Text 2, Text 3, it is necessary to fill the filter condition with the searched text.

# ID

ID is the serial number of the action. Action numbers are not deleted, even if they can no longer be seen in Readers Actions.

# Reader and reader code

Filter Reader searches for the specified pattern in the names of the readers for which the action was intended. The Reader Code filter works the same way, but searches in the reader code. Both parameters are set in Reader- reader management in an individual reader.

# Action

The Action filter divides the records according to the actions that the reader should perform during this action. So there is a possibility of more choice:

Refresh all reader settings - deleting the readerand recreating the reader with downloading the reader settings
Export parameter to the reader - sending the setting to the reader
Export user to the reader - synchronizing the user's templates to the reader, will only transfer the discrepancies
Export users to the reader - adding users to the reader
Deleting users from the reader - removal of user templates of a given reader type from webPatrol
Delete all users from the reader - removing templates from all users at the same time
Loading users from the reader - import of users from the reader to the server
Loading all users from the reader - import of all users from the reader to the server
Export all users to the reader - reader synchronization with the option to synchronize all users to selected readers

# Status

Reader actions can also be divided by the Status filter:

Created - actions proposed by the system are also included among the created reader actions, e.g. then as the user changes the template, but does not synchronize it with the readers where the original template is located
Marked for processing - reader actions to be sent to the reader, but the connection between the server and the reader has not yet been established *1
Processing - reader actions have been sent to the reader and are taking place on the reader *2
Processed - reader actions were processed without errors
Processed with error - processing of reader actions took place, but an error occurred somewhere *3

Information

*1 Marking an action with this status for a long time may indicate a problem in the network elements, in the network.

*2 Marking an action with this status for a long time may indicate a processing problem.

*3 In this case, it is necessary to find out what problem has occurred and eliminate it.

Examples

Processing:

The user removes the card template of another user. He does not synchronize this change with the reader and then assigns the given card to another user. When entering the synchronization of only changed ones, the reader will not delete users with their templates and therefore, when processing the command, it will try to assign the card to the user, but it will not be able to, because it is owned by another user.

Processed with error:

The user synchronizes a large number of changes and only one of them will occur, or a limited number of changes will occur with an error state, which will end the action and thus not be fulfilled in its entirety.

# Date and time of creation

This creation date and time filter is a bit different from other time/date filters. It searches for everything that contains characters entered by the user, i.e. also "4.7", for other time/date filters it is necessary to enter the entire date and time in the correct format.

Example

This filter also accepts "4.7", or "13:15".

For others, it is necessary to enter the correct format, i.e.: "10.5.2022 09:40:00".

# Others

Others include:

Parameter 1 to 3
Text 1 to 3
Error
Error report

These filters are intended more for the software technician / programmer.

# Error

The error filter includes:

Timeout - the action took longer than the specified time
Sync error
