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.
  • Touching every point one by one is slow on long routes — read at a wave and keep walking, so nobody rushes the round.

Is this the right system for you?

  • Your site already uses standard EM checkpoints and you need a matching guard tour reader.
  • You want one model that can cover many routes, so management stays simple.
  • You want a mature platform whose spare parts are easy to buy.

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, place the reader on the communication base and extract the data in the software manually. 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-5000V8 include, and which parts are paid?
The WM-5000V8 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-5000V8 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-5000V8 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-5000V8 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-5000V8 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 is the read distance of the WM-5000V8?
Depending on the model, RFID read distance is 3-5 cm contactless, or up to about 30 m with 2.4G long-range checkpoint buttons.
Which cards does the WM-5000V8 read?
It reads EM (125 KHz) cards; dual-mode models also read 2.4G checkpoint buttons.
Can the WM-5000V8 read checkpoints from a distance, without stopping?
Standard EM checkpoint buttons are read from 3-5 cm. Models fitted with 2.4G long-range checkpoint buttons (WM-5000V6, WM-5000V8 2.4G) read from up to about 30 m — ideal for fences, gates and vehicle patrol.
What does "dual-mode" mean on the WM-5000V8?
It reads both 125 KHz EM checkpoint buttons and 2.4G long-range checkpoint buttons, so one reader covers indoor close-range points and outdoor long-range points.
What does the WM-5000V8 OLED screen show?
Temperature, compass, storage status and read status — plus a built-in flashlight and vibration feedback.
Why does the WM-5000V8 use a smart Data Downloader?
The WM-5000T8 downloader batch-imports checkpoint IDs, so setting up a new route takes minutes instead of registering buttons one by one.
How long does the WM-5000V8 battery last?
About 21 days on 500 reads per day.
