Card Readers
To open the Card Readers page, choose Card Readers in the
Menu
(on page 92).
This page lists all card readers connected to Legrand PDU, indirectly or directly.
Note: To have card readers integrated inside the door handles connected to DX2-DH2C2 display on this
page, you must first configure the door handle properly on the page of
SmartLock
(on page 283).
When a user scans his/her smart card with the card reader, Legrand PDU will retrieve the card's type and ID
and show them in the corresponding Card Type and Card ID column. If no data is shown in the two columns,
it means the scanned card may not be supported by the card reader.
Tip: You can use a third-party application, such as Power IQ, to retrieve the card's data from Legrand PDU to
perform security features like cabinet access control. Refer to that application's user documentation for more
information.
Listed card readers can be one or both of the following types.
Door handle-integrated card readers:
This type of card reader is integrated in the door handle, which is either series below:
Emka Agent E
SouthCo
H3-EM
Note: Not every SouthCo H3-EM door handle has a card reader integrated. For example, H3-EM-60-100
requires an external card reader.
It is indirectly connected to Legrand PDU via DX2-DH2C2.
The Channel column indicates which port (channel) on DX2-DH2C2 it is connected to.
Note that the serial number displayed for this card reader is the serial number of DX2-DH2C2.
Each DX2-PD2C2 can show two card readers because they have two ports for connecting two door
handles with internal card readers.
External USB card readers:
It is directly connected to Legrand PDU via USB.
The Channel column does not show any data.
