A Wiegand frame consists of a string of bits transmitted in the Wiegand
format. Typically, this is 26 bits (including two parity bits). Following the
transmission of a Wiegand frame, a hold-off time (Thold) is asserted where
the Wiegand interface will not transmit. This mechanism is used to separate
adjacent Wiegand frames.
The unit, by default, outputs a 26-bit Wiegand frame (24 data bits , 2 parity
bits). Data lengths of up-to 128 bits can be accommodated. The current
default values for the Wiegand are as follows:
Parameter Parameter Parameter Parameter Value Value Value Value

In some installations, Wiegand equipment may report only a single
transaction when multiple tags are read simultaneously. In this case, the
Wiegand equipment may require a larger delay between consecutive
Wiegand data frames (up to 1.5 seconds).
To increase the delay, set
com.wiegand.X.physical.thold
, where
X
is the Wiegand output number, to the desired interframe time in ms (i.e.
1500 for 1.5 seconds).
For more information, refer to the AC-01 Wiegand Specification: “Access
Control Standard Protocol For The 26-Bit Wiegand Reader Interface”.

Wiegand Applications Wiegand Applications Wiegand Applications Wiegand Applications
Many access control panels incorporate a Wiegand Interface, and in many
applications a host reader will communicate with an access control panel
via the Wiegand Interface. Many Wiegand-enabled panels are configured to
receive Facility Code information and Serial Number information in Wiegand
format.
In an RFID-based access control system, the Facility Code and Serial
Number may be embedded into a data string known as a Translated ID. In
some applications, an actual tag ID may be mapped to a Translated ID via
some form of look-up table.
This 6204 Wiegand application primarily uses secure tags for
authentication. The reader will read such tags and derive a Translated ID
from the tag. This Translated ID is then sent to the Wiegand Interface
Module (WIM) for transmission over a Wiegand Interface to a Wiegand
panel. However, a translation table facility is incorporated for managing
standard legacy tags.
