Inquire Now

Are you facing these problems too?

  • Do you have guards on patrol at your site — and any way to prove they actually walked every route?
  • At 2 a.m., is he really patrolling — or asleep in a corner? Without a record, you simply cannot tell.
  • A record only proves he arrived — not what he saw. Photos keep the actual scene together with the patrol data.

Is this the right system for you?

  • You need to know the site condition, not just the time and place.
  • You send reports to owners or clients and photos make them convincing.
  • You want photo evidence without paying for a data plan.

1
Shift start

The guard reads his own guard key to record identity and shift start time.

2
Patrol the route

Along the route, the reader senses each checkpoint. Every scan is time-stamped and cannot be forged.

3
Shift handover

The incoming guard reads his own guard key — the whole shift is accountable by name.

4
Upload & reports

After the patrol, connect the reader to the PC with the magnetic USB cable and extract the data in the software. Managers get route, time, personnel and event reports.

Checkpoint buttons and guard keys

Everything above is the reader and the software. These two parts are what is actually screwed to the wall and carried in a pocket — and they decide whether the records are worth anything.

Checkpoint button · WM-30A

RFID checkpoint button

The mark on the wall that each round is proved against. A passive 125 kHz RFID disc — one screw, no battery, nothing to charge or replace.

  • ✓Passive and read-only: no battery, no switch, so nothing goes flat mid-shift.
  • ✓30 mm across, 4 mm thick, fixed by one screw through the centre — a 4 mm hole in the wall, or adhesive where the surface cannot be drilled.
  • ✓Mount it about 1.2 m above the floor and keep it off bare metal — a steel surface detunes the antenna and shortens the read range.
  • ✓Night-glow ring available, so the point is still findable with the torch off.

Guard key · WM-226

RFID guard key

One per guard. Every round he logs is stamped with this tag — the same route, but now the record says who walked it.

  • ✓Passive 125 kHz tag in a yellow keyring fob: clip it to a belt loop or lanyard, nothing to charge.
  • ✓36 × 28 × 6 mm — small enough to carry all shift without noticing.
  • ✓The serial is fixed in the chip, so one guard cannot lend his key to a colleague and have it read as his own round.
  • ✓Lost or broken? Issue a new key and bind it to the same guard — the checkpoints stay where they are.

Frequently Asked Questions

Practical answers about guard tour readers, selection and deployment.

What does the WM-5000F3 include, and which parts are paid?
The WM-5000F3 is a complete guard tour system: guard tour reader, its data downloader or USB data cable (see the What-is-in-the-system table on this page), checkpoint buttons, guard Keys and the Guard tour management System (Windows) — each quoted as a separate paid item so you buy only what you need. Every reader ships with one carrying pouch and one charger (one per reader; extra pouches or chargers are optional paid accessories), and one data cable per system. Checkpoint buttons are sized per patrol route and guard Keys per guard.
What warranty does the WM-5000F3 come with?
Every JWM guard tour reader includes a 6-year warranty, 24-hour response and free Guard tour management System upgrades.
Can the WM-5000F3 be OEM or custom branded?
Yes. We provide white-label and custom guard tour readers with your logo, firmware and packaging; finished products from 1 unit.
Is the WM-5000F3 waterproof, shockproof and tamper-proof?
Yes. Every JWM reader is sealed against water and dust, rated -40°C to +85°C, and built drop- and tamper-resistant with rubber-jacket and multi-layer silicone cushioning; patrol data is retained for over 20 years. See the Specifications table for each model’s exact rating.
Is the WM-5000F3 in stock, and how fast do you ship?
Yes — regular models are in stock for orders up to 500 sets. We ship within 3 working days after payment via FedEx, DHL or UPS, and delivery takes about 5-8 working days worldwide. Shipments are DDU: the consignee may need to support import clearance and pay import duties. LOGO-customized orders are quoted after we confirm the customization details.
What does the WM-5000F3 add over a standard guard tour reader?
A built-in camera and screen: patrol records carry photos of the actual scene together with time and place, so reports show what was really on site, not just when the guard arrived.
Does the WM-5000F3 need a data plan to upload photos?
No. Photo records are offloaded through the USB cable to the PC or cloud platform. Only the WM-5000L6 (3G/GPRS) uploads photos over the mobile network.
Which checkpoints does the WM-5000F3 read?
It reads standard RFID checkpoint buttons; the WM-5000F4 touch-screen model also supports QR-code checkpoints, so you can label hard-to-wire points with printed codes.
What camera does the WM-5000F3 have?
A 5-megapixel camera — patrol photos make the record visual and verifiable, not just a time-and-place log.
Is the WM-5000F3 certified for explosive zones?
Yes — it is certified for gas and dust explosion protection, so it can be used on oil, gas and chemical sites.
What screen does the WM-5000F3 use?
A 2.7-inch Gorilla-glass screen, IP67 sealed against water and dust.
What tools are built into the WM-5000F3?
Navigation, drop logging, pedometer, compass and flashlight — evidence collection and route finding in one device.
