Operating Instructions
Basic Access Process
An end user will present an access badge to the proximity badge reader on the
refrigerator. The badge needs to be presented close to the proximity reader to
be read. The LCD screen will indicate granted access when a valid badge has
been presented.
The end user now can open the door for a predetermined time period, normally
about five seconds. Otherwise the user will need to present the pass again.
Desired products may now be taken out. The refrigerator will give an audible
alarm if the door is left open for, typically, more than five minutes.
Close the refrigerator door once products have been retrieved. The refrigerator
will automatically lock the door and begin its inventory process. The updated
inventory will then be sent to Terso Solutions for processing. The refrigerator
will not be accessible during the inventory process. Typically, the inventory
process will take about a minute to complete. Access will then be restored and
the process can be repeated.
Alarms
All refrigerator alarms are automatically sent to Terso Solutions. Terso
Solutions staff may contact on site staff to assist in correcting a potential
problem.
Alarm Types
Door Ajar
When the refrigerator door is left open for longer than five minutes, an audible
alarm will sound until the door is closed. If the door appears to be closed,
verify nothing is obstructing the door and attempt to re-close.
Power Outage
In the event of a power outage, an audible alarm will sound. The alarm will
continue until AC power has been restored or the onboard UPS system runs out
of power. Once power has been restored, the refrigerator will perform an
inventory scan and be ready for normal use.
Temperature
The refrigerator continuously monitors its internal temperature where inventory
items are kept. If the temperature becomes too hot or cold, Terso Solutions
staff will contact on site staff to attempt to troubleshoot and/or move
temperature sensitive products to a safe location. The refrigerator may also
prevent access if the inventory items have become compromised.

EDOC00052 –Large ULT RFID Refrigerator User Manual, rev 0 13
Hardware Failure
The refrigerator will automatically attempt to correct any hardware errors
preventing the refrigerator from functioning correctly. However, in the event
that a hardware component fails, the refrigerator may lock itself down to
prevent access. Terso Solutions staff will be in contact with on site staff if this
is the case.
Door Breach
If the refrigerator door is forced open, a notification indicating a forced entry
occurred will be sent to Terso Solutions. Any products taken will be reported.
This is a rare occurrence but may result in damage to the refrigerator.
