4000 Series Vandal Resistant Digital GSM - Technical Manual
PROXIMITY NUMBER OF BYTES TO CHECK (PBY, 002, 003 & 004)
This function of the built-in proximity reader will only be applicable if the proximity reader has been enabled (see
EPR
function
above). After the proximity reader is enabled the number of bytes that the reader checks is dependant on which type of proximity
fob/card is used (also refer to notes on page 40).
Understanding the Fob Format and Card Number
It is important to understand the relationship between the fob format and the card number when setting up the proximity reader
to check for the correct number of bytes.
• Fobs/Cards with 5 digit number (user code):
If a proximity fob/card has no site code but a 5 digit user code
(e.g. 955/T or 955/C) the
PBY
format should be set to check for 2 bytes (002).
• Fobs/Cards with 3 digit site code and 5 digit user code:
If using a fob/card with a 3 digit site code and 5 digit
user code (e.g. PBX1E or PBX2) the
PBY
format can be set to check for 2 bytes (002) or 3 bytes (003).
• Fobs/Cards programmed using the PROXE desktop reader:
If using the PROXE desktop reader the
PBY
format
can be set to check for 2 bytes (002), 3 bytes (003) or 4 bytes (004).
By default the setting for this function is set to check for 2 bytes, ‘002’. The following texts can be used to change this setting.
1111PBYnnn
Set proximity reader to check for number of bytes nnn: 002, 003 or 004 (002 = check for 2
bytes, 003 = check for 3 bytes, 004 = check for 4 bytes).
1111PBYnnn?
as above and send a confirmation text back to the sender.
1111PBY?
Query the number of bytes that the digital GSM has been set to check for.
PBY setting
Description
2 bytes
Will read all fobs/cards types programmed.
3 bytes
Will not read fobs/cards programmed with only 2 bytes (5 digit) information.
4 bytes
Will not read fobs/cards programmed with only 2 bytes (5 digit) or 3 bytes (8 digit) information.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is recommended that only one fob/card type is used to allow for easier set up and programming of the
digital GSM reader. Mifare cards cannot be used.
STORE/QUERY A PROXIMITY FOB/CARD (FOB, 0000 - 1999)
Once the built-in proximity reader has been enabled and the number of bytes to check for has been set (refer to the
EPR
and
PBY
setup on the previous page) the proximity fobs/cards can be programmed into the digital GSM intercom.
The digital GSM can store up to 2000 fobs/cards (0000 - 1999). The reader can be programmed with any one of the following fobs:
• 955/T or 955/C =
Videx fobs or cards. These fobs and cards have no site code and have a 5 digit user code, so
the
PBY
function must be set to 002 (the default setting, checking for 2 bytes).
• PBX1E or PBX2 =
Portal Plus fobs or cards. These fobs and cards have a 3 digit site code and 5 digit user code,
so the
PBY
function can be set to 002 or 003.
The following texts can be used to program fobs or cards.
1111FOBnnnn”site”,”user”
Store fob/card in location nnnn, where nnnn = the memory location from 0000 - 1999 of
where the fob/card is actually stored (see examples below for each type of fob/card). The
“site” and “user” code is the number printed on the fob/card.
1111FOBnnnn”site”,”user”?
As above and send a confirmation text back to the sender with the stored fob/card details.
1111FOBnnnn?
Query the fob/card stored in memory location nnnn and send a confirmation text back to
the sender with the stored fob/card details.
The following examples show how to program each fob/card type:
Example 1:
Programming a
955/T
or
955/C
with no site code, a 5 digit user code of
12345
and storing it in memory location
0001
, the
following text can be sent to the digital GSM:
1111FOB0001”0”,”12345”
Note that quotation marks
“
and commas
,
are used where appropriate. For these fob/card types a ‘0’ must be inserted
for the “site” code.
