− | When NBL-3 device captures RFID value it keeps broadcasting it for roughly a minute (it varies). NBL-3 manufacturer Netronix states that it is currently impossible to detect when the same RFID is attached to NBL-3 device again (when RFID value is still present after first read). New RFID read can only be indicated after NBL-3 value retention timeout is finished. When attaching different cards each time to reader, all will be read without issues. | + | |

− | During testing another behaviour was spotted, that if Netronix NBL reader being configured in Advanced mode, only configured features are being shown in I/O elements. However FW stops detecting button states and cannot trigger immobilizer feature even when RFID card is being successfully read in I/O. As well as for immobilizer, Private/Business mode does not change state while pressing buttons. Issue being fixed when same MAC being configured as NBL reader in second connection. For that reason 2 BLE Connections need to be used for correctly working functions of single reader. | + | |
