10.0 Read Mode
Reader (OSDP “PD”) operation is controlled by the access panel
(OSDP “ACU”) per the OSDP specification.
11.0 Connection
Connection must be done in accordance with NFPA 70. Do not
connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch. Connect to a power
limited DC voltage source.
12.0 Troubleshooting
1. When the reader is first powered on it will beep 4-times.
2. Presenting a supported access credential will result in the
reader beeping once.
3. OSDP communications with the panel will be established after the
reader has completed its start-up sequence. The panel can query
the reader for status using OSDP commands. Note, at this point,
the access panel controls the reader beeper and LED functionality.
If the reader does not recognize the card or tag (no beep, no LED
flash), refer to possibe OSDP communications errors detected at the
access control panel. Please see the table below for additional
possible causes and solutions.
Possible Cause
Corrective Action
OSDP misconfiguration,
not configured for OSDP,
secure channel mismatch
Confirm panel is configured for
OSDP. Confirm panel and reader are
both configured for Secure Channel
(or both unencrypted.) Confirm PD
address and speed.
Incorrect cabling
Verify gauge, connections and
cabling length
Not enough power
12 VDC recommended, 5 VDC
at reader is minimum
Incorrect card used
Verify if card technology
is supported
Reader/access panel not
properly grounded
Earth ground needed—verify shield
and reader ground are tied at access
panel and connect to ground at
one point
Supply generating
interference
Linear power supply recommended,
verify switching power supply
before use
Should any of the corrective actions mentioned above not improve
performance, disconnect the reader from the access panel and power
it with a separate power supply or 9VDC battery, and re-test card
functionality, with an OSDP panel simulator if necessary. By powering
the readers separately, most variables that may lead to reduced
performance can be eliminated. OSDP issues often require a packet
trace, which the installer or panel vendor should be prepared to
provide if there are problems. Should the problem persist, please
contact Farpointe directly.
