WM-5000F4 Photo Guard Tour System

3.1" touch-screen photo patrol reader with Linux and 1080P evidence

The WM-5000F4 "Iron Code 4" is a touch-screen photo patrol reader built on an embedded Linux system. A 3.1-inch MIPI HD touch screen, a 2 MP camera and 1080P video record what was actually on site, while RFID or QR checkpoints, planned routes and live progress make every inspection traceable. Records move to the PC or cloud platform over magnetic driver-free USB 2.0 and turn into reports automatically.

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?

  • Time and place are not enough — you want to see what the scene looked like.
  • Most of your patrol is at night and photos need a real flash.
  • You want the photos stored with the patrol report, not left on a phone.

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 scans the QR code at 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.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Practical answers about guard tour readers, selection and deployment.

What does the WM-5000F4 include, and which parts are paid?
The WM-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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-5000F4 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 and video does the WM-5000F4 have?
A 2 MP camera shooting 1080P photos and video, so every patrol event carries visual evidence of the actual scene.
What screen and system does the WM-5000F4 run?
A 3.1-inch MIPI HD touch screen on an embedded Linux system — patrol routes, live progress and reports run on the device itself.
Which checkpoints does the WM-5000F4 read?
Both RFID checkpoint buttons and QR-code checkpoints, so printed codes can mark points where wiring or button mounting is impractical.
How much can the WM-5000F4 store?
8 GB storage with 1 GB RAM and a 4-core 1.5 GHz CPU — smooth operation with photo, video, voice, text and handwritten-signature records.
How long does the WM-5000F4 battery last?
The 3,600 mAh rechargeable lithium battery fully recharges in 3 hours.
