Possible Causes

Disconnected RFID reader cable, Failed Schneider EVlink RFID module, Damaged reader surface, Disabled RFID function in configuration

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before removing the front cover.

  • Check configuration: Ensure RFID access control is enabled in the EVlink settings; otherwise, the reader may ignore cards.
  • Inspect reader cable: With power OFF, verify that the RFID reader's cable is securely plugged into the control board.
  • Clean reader surface: Wipe the reader area with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or residue.
  • Test with known-good card: Use a card that is confirmed to work on another EVlink unit, if available.
  • Module replacement: If still unresponsive, the RFID reader module should be replaced by a Schneider Electric–qualified technician.
