1.0 Introduction
A key component of a physical security electronic access control
system, a proximity card reader is based on RFID technology. In
operation it is capable of reading data stored on a proximity credential
via radio frequency and without physical contact, and then passing the
data obtained to the physical access control system. Access control
systems typically manage and record the movement of individuals
through a protected area, such as a locked door.
2.0 Mounting Provisions
Each reader may be installed either indoors or outdoors. Mounting
options shown in the table below. Use supplied #6 mounting screws, or
equivalent security screws, for installation. P-400 Series readers are
supplied with #6 tamperproof screws. P-900 also comes with #10
screws for mounting on parking bollards and non-metallic flat surfaces.

5.0 Output Formats
The SIA standard OSDP protocol is supported for clear and secure
channel communication.
Default Address: 0
Default Baud rate: 9600bps (bits per second)
Default Secure Channel Key:
SCBK_D = 0x303132333435363738393A3B3C3D3E3F.
OSDP Protocol Technical Support:
SIA OSDP Application Profile: Basic Reader (OSDP v2.2 and higher)
6.0 Grounding
Shield (drain) continuity must run from the reader to the access panel.
Shield (drain) and reader ground must be tied together at the access
panel and connect to an earth ground at one point.
7.0 Power
Reader may be powered by the access panel. A linear power supply is
recommended for best operation.
8.0 Voltage
5 to 16 VDC. 12 VDC at the reader is recommended for best operation.
