USING A SLAVE WITH THE PROX 2000 II
The prox 23-206 communicates with one additional slave proximity reader utilizing wiegand technology. . Please see
instruction manual included with the 23-006. Note: Connect additional Proximity Reader to Slave 2 Communications
only.
NOTE: Do not run your gate control wires in the same shielded cable as your slave communication wires.
There are two holes on the back of the unit which are for slave communication wires and gate control wires. Run
your wires through the holes and under the circuit board and then make your connections on the communications
and relays board. Try to unwrap the foil shield as little as possible to keep as much EMI away from the board as
possible. Be careful that the foil shield does not short out the circuit board. Also be careful that when you close the
unit that pressure is not put on the circuit board, and that none of your wires are hitting the reset button.
Slave connections are to be made on the Communications and Relays board. For slave 1 and slave 2
there are numbers labeled 1 thru 6. These numbers correspond to standard weigand color codes in this way. USE
THESE COLORS FROM THE WIEGAND DEVICE AND ATTACH THEM TO THEIR NUMBER ON THE COMMUNICATION AND
RELAY BOARD.

USING A PRINTER WITH THE PROX 2000 II
The PROX 2000 II incorporates an RS-232 serial interface on board for connection to a AAS 21-047 or 21-045 printer in
order to print out recorded transactions. The transactions may be printed as they occur or the contents of the history
buffer may be dumped out to the printer.
Note: A standard serial printer WILL NOT work with the 23-206.
Connecting the printer
CABLE TYPE:
22 gauge, 6 conductor, shielded (BELDEN #9931 or equivalent)
MAX DISTANCE:
50 feet (*) SEE BELOW
Keep the cable run at least 1 foot away from high voltage, transformers, florescence lights, etc. An interface cable,
(63-034), is required to link the PROX 2000 II to the printer. Plug one end into the printer receptacle located on the
backside of the printer. Plug the other end into the RJ45 jack on the back of the PROX 2000 II Unit.
Printer Setup
The PROX 2000 II unit default configuration communicates with a printer at 9600 bps, 8 bits, no parity, CR valid. The
baud rate settings on the PROX 2000 II can be changed through software (see programming Series 400). The baud
rate choices are 9600(default), 4800, 2400, and 1200. To test the printer, load the printer with paper, plug the printer in,
make sure the printer is on line and simply place a card to the reader.
ACCESS & FUNCTION CODES
NOTE: SINCE THE PROX 2000 II SYSTEM IS BASED ON WEIGAND TECHNOLOGY, ALL CARDS USED BY THE SYSTEM MUST
RESIDE BETWEEN 0 AND 2000. AN ENTRY OF A CARD NUMBER OF 0 OR A NUMBER HIGHER THAN 2000 WILL RESULT IN AN
ERROR.
Depending on which model you have, your unit may be programmed with multiple access cards. The maximum
number of access cards that can be programmed into the unit is reflected in the model number (eg. 23-1000 =
1000 access codes). There are two different types of cards; ACCESS CARDS & FUNCTION CARDS. Access cards are
standard user cards for gaining access onto or into a restricted area. Function cards are assigned a specific function.
The function cards and their descriptions are as follows.
