RAZ-RCP-1 RFID time clock for staff time and attendance
A card tap instead of an attendance sheet
RAZ-RCP-1 is an RFID time clock that records working time with proximity cards and key fobs. It hangs at the entrance. Staff tap a card and the reader works out by itself whether they are coming in or going out, and it can open the door straight away. Hours add up in the panel built into the reader - no subscription.
Our earlier devices were called SKRYBA-1. Many of them are still in use, and we still service them.
Trusted by
Also city and municipal offices, a medical university and even military units.
Three steps to your first report
1
Mount it at the entrance
Plug in the USB-C cable (5 V, 2 A) and about 5 seconds later you can tap the first card. When you buy in our shop, the power supply comes in the same parcel. There is no need to hide cables in the wall. Connect the reader by cable, over Wi-Fi or through its own hotspot.
2
Add people and cards
Adding the first employee takes about 5 minutes: connect to the reader Wi-Fi hotspot, log in to the panel, open the employee and add a card. 5 cards and 5 key fobs are in the box, and one person can have several cards or key fobs. Stuck? Call us: +48 791 157 693.
3
Tap and check
The reader tells entries from exits by itself. Hour totals and days to check are in the panel.

Using the RAZ-RCP-1 reader: from unboxing to reports
Everything you need to get started: unboxing, power, the panel in your browser, employees and cards, taps, reports and export. All in the reader itself, with no software and no internet.
The voice-over is in Polish, with English subtitles.
You open it in a browser, on a computer or a phone: through the reader's hotspot and, once you switch it on, on your company network too (HTTPS only). Nothing to install and no subscription.
Dashboard. Who is at work right now and since when. The panel flags days to check by itself, e.g. a shift longer than 9 hours.

Access control
Opens doors
The reader has a built-in relay for a DC electric strike, lock or magnetic lock. Staff tap a card: the reader records the time and opens the door straight away. No separate access controller needed.
Electric strike or lock: a pulse opens it. Magnetic lock: held on, a pulse releases it.
You set how long it stays open, from 0.1 to 10 s.
Lets in staff cards only, or any card.
On the way out it can just record the time without opening.
Test the lock from the panel with the "Trigger" button.
DC locks up to 24 V and 2 A, powered from their own supply.
Panasonic PhotoMOS solid-state relay: no clicking and no contacts to wear out.
Mounting
No need to hide cables in the wall
The reader runs on USB-C (5 V, 2 A) and connects over Wi-Fi. A socket nearby is all it takes. If you would rather hide the cables, the spare length fits on a shelf at the back of the housing.
On a wall at the entrance, indoors.
Fix it with 4 screws spaced 30 × 60 mm (screws not included).
The drilling template is in the user guide, and a STEP file for 3D printing is on the user guide page.
When you buy in our shop, the USB-C power supply comes in the same parcel as the reader.

Integration
Punches go straight to your system
The reader sends punches to your server by itself, for example your HR or ERP system. You enter the address in the reader panel and that is it - no extra software in between.
Sends every 1-1440 minutes (15 by default, set in the panel), with a login and password.
If the server does not answer, punches wait in the reader and go out on the next attempt - nothing is lost.
Card number as a decimal or hex value - pick whatever your system accepts.
Each reader has its own ID, so you can tell entrances apart.
Once the server confirms receipt, the reader can delete the sent punches.
Skryba 8 and 10 bit formats, compatible with older SKRYBA-1 readers.
It sends it to your server, every 15 minutes by default
HTTP protocol
Each punch is a separate POST request to the address set in the panel, form-encoded. The login and password go in a Basic auth header. A simple server-side script is enough.
Example (http3 format, card number in hex)
POST /rcp HTTP/1.1
Host: kadry.twoja-firma.pl
Authorization: Basic cmNwOmhhc2xv
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
User-Agent: RAZ-RCP/8
rfidID=04a1b2c3d4e5f6×tamp=2026-09-24+08%3A42%3A00&machineId=czytnik-recepcja
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
{"stored":true}
reader ID from the panel, by default the name of its hotspot
What the server answers
200
Accepted. Confirm a punch you already have with 200 too - ideally with {"stored":false} in the body.
400
Rejected for good, e.g. an unknown card. The reader takes it off the queue, but it stays in its memory and reports.
401, 403
Wrong login or password. The reader keeps trying.
404, other, no answer
Wrong address, server error or no connection. The cycle stops and the reader retries from the same punch: after 30 s, 60 s, 120 s and so on, at most at the set interval.
One cycle sends up to 32 punches over one connection. If more are waiting, the next 32 go 2 seconds later.
The same punch can arrive twice if a response got lost - you can recognise it by rfidID, timestamp and machineId.
To a server on the internet the reader connects over encrypted HTTPS only, so the login, password and punches stay protected. Plain HTTP works only with a server on the company network.
With HTTPS the server must have a valid certificate from a public certificate authority (e.g. Let’s Encrypt).

Security and standards
The reader meets the Radio Equipment Directive cybersecurity requirements in force since 1 August 2025 (EN 18031-1 and EN 18031-2).
Encrypted connection (HTTPS) with the certificate key stored in the reader.
By default the panel works only through the reader's hotspot. You switch on access from the company network yourself, and it runs over HTTPS only.

Questions
Does RAZ-RCP-1 need a subscription?
No. RAZ-RCP-1 has its own panel with reports and exports that runs on your network. RCP-CLOUD is an add-on for access from outside the office.
Which cards does RAZ-RCP-1 read?
RAZ-RCP-1 reads 13.56 MHz cards and key fobs: MIFARE and ISO/IEC 14443-A compatible. 5 cards and 5 key fobs are in the box.
How many employees can RAZ-RCP-1 handle?
There is no limit on employees, and the RAZ-RCP-1 memory holds about 300,000 punches. For up to 256 employees the reader works out entry and exit by itself, with a different sound for each. With more people it does not tell entry from exit - both punches sound the same. A refused card always has its own sound.
Can I buy extra cards or key fobs?
Yes. Cards and key fobs for RAZ-RCP-1 cost PLN 3 net each. Add them to your reader order and they ship in the same parcel. You can also buy them on their own under "Cards".
Can I connect RAZ-RCP-1 to our HR system?
Yes. RAZ-RCP-1 sends punches to your server by itself every 1-1440 minutes (15 by default), with a login and password. If the server does not answer, punches wait in the reader and go out on the next attempt.
What if the internet or power goes down?
Without internet RAZ-RCP-1 keeps working and stores punches in memory. Without power it does not record punches, but the clock has a battery, so the reader knows the time when power comes back.
Can RAZ-RCP-1 open a door?
Yes. RAZ-RCP-1 has a built-in relay for a DC electric strike, lock or magnetic lock, up to 24 V and 2 A, so you need no separate controller. The lock is powered from its own supply. You set how long it stays open (0.1-10 s) and whether it admits every card or only staff cards.
How is RAZ-RCP-1 powered?
Through USB-C: 5 V and 2 A. When you buy in our shop, the power supply comes in the same parcel as the reader, so a socket nearby is all it takes. No need to hide cables in the wall, and the spare length fits on a shelf at the back of the housing.
How do I connect RAZ-RCP-1 to RCP-CLOUD?
In RCP-CLOUD (basic.adaraz.com) open the "Czytniki" (Readers) tab and click "Podłącz urządzenie" (Connect a device) to get a code. In the RAZ-RCP-1 panel enter it under Settings → Integrations → ADARAZ Cloud. The code works for 15 minutes and only once.
How much is shipping and how long does it take?
By courier, PLN 20.49 gross per parcel, up to 3 RAZ-RCP-1 readers in one. We usually ship within 2 business days of the payment being booked, and delivery usually takes 1-2 business days. We ship within Poland.
Will I get a VAT invoice?
Yes. The ADARAZ shop sells to businesses: enter your tax ID at checkout and we will email the VAT invoice.
