Medeco EA-100240 XT Guard Tour Reader for Intelligent Key Systems

The Medeco XT Guard Tour Reader is a robust, user tracking solution designed to integrate seamlessly with any Medeco XT Intelligent Key system. Built for both interior and exterior installation, this reader mounts easily to any wall, door, or flat surface, making it a versatile addition to commercial security and personnel accountability programs. Once installed, it programs just like a standard XT cylinder within the XT Web Manager Software, and designated tour personnel simply touch the reader with their XT key to generate a timestamped audit event confirming task completion. Audit events are uploaded to XT Web Manager via any XT programming device, including desktop, remote (network), or the XT AIR app on a mobile device.

Key Features

  • Seamless XT System Integration: Programs identically to a standard XT cylinder within the XT Web Manager Software, ensuring a consistent and familiar setup experience for administrators.
  • Simple Touch-Based Check-In: Designated tour personnel touch the reader with their XT key to instantly create an audit event, confirming completion of rounds or tasks without complex procedures.
  • Comprehensive Audit Trail: Each key touch generates a timestamped audit event that is stored on the XT key and uploaded to XT Web Manager software for full accountability and reporting.
  • Flexible Upload Options: Audit events can be uploaded via any XT programming device, including desktop, remote (network), or through the XT AIR app on a compatible mobile device.
  • Versatile Mounting Compatibility: Designed to mount on any interior or exterior wall, door, or flat surface, enabling deployment virtually anywhere movement tracking is required.
  • Commercial-Grade Construction: Robust design engineered for demanding commercial environments where reliable, long-term performance is essential.
  • Expandable Tracking Solution: Can be added to any existing Medeco XT Intelligent Key system, allowing organizations to scale their guard tour and personnel tracking capabilities as needed.

Medeco MED-EA-100240-EA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Medeco XT Guard Tour Reader actually do on a patrol route?
The EA-100240 is a checkpoint, not a lock. You mount it at a spot on the route, and the guard touches it with their XT key. That contact writes a timestamped audit event onto the key itself. When the key is later docked at any XT programming device, the events upload into XT Web Manager, so you get a record of who hit which checkpoint and when. There is nothing to unlock and nothing to open at the reader.
2) Do I need a Medeco XT system already in place to use the EA-100240 Guard Tour Reader?
Yes. The Guard Tour Reader works as part of a Medeco XT Intelligent Key system, and it can be added to any existing XT installation. It programs the same way a standard XT cylinder does, inside XT Web Manager Software. If you are not running XT keys and XT Web Manager, this reader has nothing to talk to and no way to be programmed.
3) Can the XT Guard Tour Reader be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes, exterior mounting is covered. It is built for both interior and exterior installation and attaches to any wall, door, or flat surface, so checkpoints at a loading dock, a perimeter gate house wall, or an exterior stairwell door are all in scope. Commercial-grade construction, not a residential product.
4) Does the guard tour reader need power or wiring run to it?
No wiring is described for the reader. The XT system is key-powered: the event is created when the XT key touches the reader, and the event rides home on the key. Upload happens at an XT programming device, not at the checkpoint, so a reader can sit on a wall in a stairwell or an outbuilding with no cabling to it.
5) Is the Medeco XT Guard Tour Reader a lock, or does it control a door?
Neither. It is a read point for personnel tracking. It records that a person with a specific XT key was at that location at a specific time. Access control on the doors themselves is handled by XT cylinders. If you want to both control the opening and audit it, you need XT cylinders in the doors, and you add Guard Tour Readers only where you want a checkpoint with no opening behind it.
6) How do guards get their tour data off the key and into the software?
Through any XT programming device. That means a desktop programmer, a remote network programming device, or the XT AIR app on a mobile device. The mobile option matters if your guards never come back to an office during the shift, they can push the tour up from the field instead of waiting to dock at a desk.
7) Can I add guard tour checkpoints to an XT system I already installed, without changing the keys?
Yes. Readers can be added to an existing Medeco XT Intelligent Key system, and the same XT keys your staff already carry generate the tour events. Administration stays in XT Web Manager, and each reader is programmed exactly as you would program an XT cylinder, so there is no second software platform to learn or maintain.
8) Will a Medeco XT Guard Tour Reader work for nurse rounding or inspection rounds, not just security patrols?
It will. The mechanism is the same whoever is holding the key: touch, timestamp, audit event. Facilities use it for staff rounding verification in healthcare, inspection rounds in industrial and warehouse settings, loss prevention tours in retail, and patrol verification in schools and government buildings. Anywhere you need proof a person physically reached a location, a reader on that wall does the job.
9) How many readers do I order for a guard tour route?
One EA-100240 per checkpoint. The model is a single configuration, there are no finish, size, or handing options to specify, so a six-stop route is six readers. Count the physical locations you want proof of presence at, and order that many.
