Planning where to use the BAI Reader continued
Example: Residents Only lane for gated communities with a telephone entry system.
In the same basic situation as before, there are 2 entry lanes into a community. Visitors and
vendors go through the lane next to the telephone entry unit in order to be identified and
documented before entering. Traffic at this lane tends to back up quickly due to the amount of
time it takes to grant access to visitors. Community residents bypass this mess and use the
Resident Only lane. A barcode decal is applied to each authorized vehicle. As they pass by,
the BAI reader detects the barcode, which identifies the vehicle. The vehicle ID can be sent
out to an access control panel via 26 bit Wiegand communication or the reader may control
the gate directly. Residents can enter as fast as the gate will cycle, so traffic maintains a
steady flow and does not back up.
The community can use different color decals to indicate the status of vehicles. Residents
may be assigned Black on Black decals, while community staff or employees have Blue on
Black decals. This allows for a visual ID on a parked vehicle – based on the color, a guard
can tell immediately if it belongs to a resident or a staff member.
In addition, a third color decal can be used to identify vendors. A community can generate
revenue by selling vendors a decal that will allow them to enter through the resident lane.
Yard services, pool cleaners, plumbers, roofers, and cleaning services will find it much easier
to obtain a decal and bypass traffic in the visitor lane.
