DESIGN AND APPLICATION
RWL-2-SL lock enables read-in access control based on MIFARE proximity cards - based on the card
numbers stored in its memory, the lock decides autonomously if the access can be granted.
The RWL-2-SL lock consists of two escutcheons with handles. Card reader is installed in the external
escutcheon while the battery pack is installed in the internal one. The internal handle is permanently
coupled with latch and door can be always open without use of electronics. The external handle is
separated from the latch and moves freely. When the access is granted the electronic module couples
the external handle with latch to enable door opening. The RWL-2-SL lock can be optionally equipped
with door cylinder and then be opened from the outside with traditional metal key. The lock is
supplied by 4 AAA batteries. Low battery level can be signalled locally. The batteries enable one year
operation for average 10 opening cycles per day.
Depending on door opening direction and handle location on the door leaf the adequate type of RWL-
2-SL lock must be applied.

Door cylinder
RWL-2-SL lock enables installation of a lock cylinder. Such cylinder enables emergency door opening
from the outside using metal key. The size of cylinder depends on door thickness and it must be
selected in such way that it would not protrude by more than 16mm over door surface of inside and in
range 21-24 from outside.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The RWL-2-SL can be used as autonomous access control point, where the access is granted based on
the data stored in the lock’s memory. The lock requires configuration which can be done from the
programming computer with the RogerVDM application and connected to the lock through RUD-1
communication interface. If the lock is designated to operate with list of 50 users, each equipped with
Main card and Backup card , it can be programmed manually without computer. In this scenario, two
programming cards, called ADD card and DEL card, are used to program the unit.
Note: Due to the small size of the proximity keyfobs, they may be incorrectly detected by the built-in
proximity sensor. In the RWL series locks, it is recommended to use full-size ISO proximity cards.
Proximity cards
The lock is equipped with a card reader which supports MIFARE® cards. Factory configured device
reads card serial number (CSN - Chip Serial Number ), but using RogerVDM software it can be

RWL-2-SL Operating Manual.doc 2021-12-20
5/12
configured to use programmable card number (PCN – Programmable Card Number ) stored in the
encrypted memory of the MIFARE card.
Card number
The card number which RWL-2-SL lock reads from the card and returns to the access controller is
called RCN ( Returned Card Number ). In general, the RCN can be composed of two sections:
·CSN section
·PCN section
The CSN section is a part of the RCN card number taken from the card serial number (CSN). The
serial number is programmed by card manufacturer.
The PCN section is a part of the RCN card number taken from the card’s programmable memory. The
programmable number can be encrypted with own key in order to enable protection against card
copying.
Due to relatively easy copying of the card serial numbers (CSN), it is recommended to configure the
lock for operation with programmable card numbers (PCN).
Standalone Access Control
The lock grants access for cards stored in its memory. Up to 100 cards can be defined and stored in
lock’s memory. Each card can be authorised for momentary door opening (option: Normal access )
and/or to open the door for unlimited time (option: Office access ). If the card is authorized for Normal
access then it opens the lock for the time specified by the parameter Lock pulse . If the card is
authorized for Office mode then it can open the lock for unlimited time. When lock is switched to
Office mode door can be open without use of a card. If the card is authorised for Normal access and
Office mode then in order to get normal access it must be used once while in order to activate Office
mode it must be used twice.
Backup cards
Up to 100 cards can be defined and stored in lock’s memory. Each card can belong to individual user.
Optionally the lock can operate with 50 users only. In such a case each user can have two cards: Main
card and Backup card . Both cards have the same authorizations and the enrolment of Backup card is
optional. Factory new lock is configured to operate with 50 users. This mode is also used when lock’s
default settings are restored. Switching to 100 users mode can be done only by means of RogerVDM
software. The main benefit of Backup cards is to enable selective removing of Main cards from the
lock’s memory even if such Main cards are not physically available (e.g. lost or damaged). Therefore
it is recommended to mark and store Backup cards in designated place for future use.
Note: Backup card is assigned with same authorizations as accompanying Main card and can be used
in the same way as the Main card .
LED indicators
RWL-2-SL lock is equipped with 3 LED indicators which functions are described in the table below.
LED indicators

Power supply
RWL-2-SL lock is supplied from 4 pcs of AAA batteries. In case of average 10 operations daily the
alkaline batteries enable 1 year functioning. Low battery level is reported to VISO management
software and additionally it is signalled locally by orange LED SYSTEM pulsing and acoustic signal
generated prior to entering standby mode.
CONFIGURATION
RWL-2-SL lock can be programmed manually or from PC computer. All configuration settings can be
setup and edited using RogerVDM program. Connection to PC requires RUD-1 interface.
Factory new lock is configured with 2 programming cards (ADD card and DEL card). Lock pulse by
default is set to 2 sec while built-in RFID reader is configured to read card serial numbers (CSN).
Factory cards
Label Name Authorization
ADD ADD programming card New card adding to the lock
DEL DEL programming card Card deleting from the lock
Configuration recovery from the lock
In some circumstances it might be required to recover the configuration settings from the lock. Such
operation can be done by means of RogerVDM software. Regardless of the operating mode it is not
possible to recover communication password and card encryption keys. Recovery of the user cards
programmed in the lock’s memory, can be disabled by means of Card codes protection option, which
by default is set off so the card codes can be read from the lock’s memory.
Note: Once the Card code protection option is set, the only way to clear it is to execute memory reset
which erases entire lock’s memory.
Manual programming of the users
The lock can be configured manually without computer. Using manual programming it is possible to
add and delete user cards. Factory new lock is configured with Backup cards and delivered with 2
programming cards (ADD card and DEL card). The manual programming of the users can be used
either when lock operates with Backup cards (50 users limit) or without Backup cards (100 users
limit). When lock operates with 100 user limit, programming steps related to the Backup cards shall be
skipped.
Note: It is possible to program new ADD and DEL programming cards during memory reset
procedure.
User adding
A. Read ADD programming card.
B. Read first card to program user’s Main card .

Users
Credentials tab in RogerVDM top menu enables management of the cards programmed in the lock’s
memory. As explained earlier, lock can operate with 50 users with Main card and Backup card or 100
users with Main card only. Each user can be granted with Normal access and/or Office mode
authorisation. If programmed, the Backup card have the same authorisations as a Main card it
accompanies. When user is granted with the Normal access authorisation it can open a door for the
time defined by Lock pulse parameter. When user is granted with Office mode it can open the door for
unlimited time and then, when required using the same card it can terminate Office mode . Both
options can be granted to the same user.
When card has both authorisations, with the first card usage lock opens for Lock pulse time and waits
for optional second card usage what is signalled by LED SYSTEM blinking. If the card is used second
time lock switches into Office mode . If the lock is in the Office mode then with the single use of a card
with Office mode authorisation lock terminates Office mode .
Memory reset
Memory reset erases all programmed card and restores factory configuration settings. After reset the
locks operates with 50 users list and reads card serial number (CSN). In order to perform memory
reset procedure proceed with following steps:
·Remove jumper from the MEM pins (if applicable).
·Short RST pins for a moment preferably by placing and removing jumper.
·When acoustic signalization is started place jumper on MEM pins and the devices shall
confirm memory reset with 3 acoustics beeps.
·Read any proximity card and it shall be new ADD programming card.
·Read any proximity card and it shall be new DEL programming card.
·Wait for 3 acoustic beeps. The lock shall restore default factory settings and shall switch to
normal operation.
