Erm, the colour sequence is:

a) Amber - Ready to read.

OK.

b) Red - Oyster rejected or not ready to read.

No, Red - paper ticket accepted.


I hold a staff pass (Oyster based). The red led comes on if theres a
misread. It is also on if the reader is off-line.

If a mag-stripe ticket goes through the gate the reader is not ready
to read, ergo the read light.


c) Green - Oyster read ok, no problems.

Never seen green. Why isn't "paper ticket accepted" green?


Because the main display shows whether a mag stripe ticket has read
ok.


Hopefully Paul Corfield will be along later and can explain....
