1. OVERVIEW
Z-2 BASE Computer Adapter
is a multifunctional device serving the following purposes:
- Programming of standalone controllers Z-5R, Matrix-II K by loading the keys/cards database
from a PC directly to controller memory via a special socket, or storing that database from
controller memory to a PC.
- Saving the keys/cards database from a PC into a DS1996L-compliant key, for further copying
into Z-5R or Matrix-II K controllers at the customer's site, and from customer's site to a
DS1996L-compliant key to a PC).
- Connecting any card standard reader (EM-Marine, Mifare, HID etc.) to a PC via iButton
(Dallas Touch Memory) or Wiegand protocol, -- so that card serial numbers can be fed into the
PC. A built-in 12 V DC voltage converter providing up to 150 mA current allows powering the
connected reader right from this adapter, without a need for a power converter. It is also
possible to control the indication on a connected reader by commands from the PC.
- Connecting to a PC via keyboard emulation protocol (USB-HID) to enter the acquired serial
numbers in a specified text format, as if from a standard keyboard. (Custom firmware version
required).
- Connecting to an external controller via a card reader emulation (iButton or Wiegand
protocols), to transmit acquired cards/keys serial numbers to that controller by commands from
a PC.
- Most of the listed above tasks are solved by the BaseZ5R software, available FREE from
http://www.ironlogic.
Because the adapter draws quite significant current from a PC USB port, we recommend to connect
with the cable supplied with device. Work with other cables is not guaranteed.
Before initial power-on, please download drivers from http://www.ironlogic.
and unpack them to
a folder of your choice.
Connect the adapter to a PC USB port, wait for system requesting a driver location and point it to the
folder with unpacked driver files.
After the driver is installed, Device Manager will list another COM port. This confirms that the
installation was correct.
Features of this device are defined by the firmware downloaded into it and control software for PC.
Useful information about working with this adapter can be found on the manufacturer's website at
