5. System Architecture
The Wiegand Switch is powered by a an external supply voltage of 12 up to 24 V DC. This can be provided
either by an external power supply or by the DC pin of the readers I/O connector (depending on used
reader).
The Wiegand Output of the reader is connected to the Wiegand Input of the Switch. The Wiegand Outputs of
the Switch are connected to different inputs at an Access Control Panel.
The output of the Wiegand Switch is controlled by a switching signal. The switching signal can be generated
by the readers relay output. The on/off switching of the relay in dependency of a read event on a particular
antenna can be configured in the reader settings (see:
).
If the reader relay is switched off (default state) the Wiegand Switch uses its Wiegand Output A. If the relay
is switched active the Wiegand signal will be routed to Wiegand Output B.
