Why does the card reader not recognize my I.D. Card/iClass FOB?

Card readers at building and room doors will display either a solid red or solid green light.

• Red indicates the door is in locked status.
• Green indicates the door is in unlocked status.

If the card reader does not respond to your I.D. Card/iClass fob:

• Access may not be assigned.
• Your iClass device may be damaged.
• Did you change status on campus?  (ie: you were previously an Undergrad and now you are a Grad student ) You must obtain a new card from the Registrars Office.
• Some lab doors may be configured with an Unlock schedule. UofG cards will not be required during the scheduled time.
• Your I.D. Card may not be equipped with iClass HID technology. (i.e. older magnetic stripe card)
• When your I.D. Card is NOT presented on its own, the reader may detect other RFID cards within a wallet, purse or backpack. Access is not granted if multiple cards are detected.
