System Overview
MaxiProx® is a self-contained proximity reader. The two-piece polycarbonate enclosure has an O-ring
that weather seals the enclosure pieces together and a cable fitting that seals the cable entry. The
water-resistant unit is designed for outdoor use. The enclosure is mountable on a single gang
electrical box. A bi-color LED and audible tone provide user feedback. Configurable open collector data
outputs provide the data to the Host. Configurable DIP Switches and jumpers provide choice of data
interfaces between Wiegand, Clock-and-Data, RS 232 and RS422. The data interface is configured as
ordered from the factory, but can be changed in the field - please contact
HID Technical Support
for
assistance. A tamper switch can alert the Host when the enclosure is opened. Internal DIP Switches
and jumpers provide for configuration of the outputs, audible tone and LED control options. Installation
of the MaxiProx reader consists of mounting, connecting the cable to the Host and +12VDC or
+24VDC power, verifying the DIP Switch and jumper settings, verifying Auto-tune, and verifying the
reading of a transponder.
1.1
Operation
Transponders (Proximity Cards or ProxKeys) are presented to the front of the MaxiProx. The LED is
red
when ready to read a transponder. The LED turns
green
and the beeper sounds when the
transponder is read and the message is transmitted to the Host computer or interface panel. The
system is ready for another transponder as soon as the LED returns to
red
. There is an anti-passback
delay of about one and a half seconds before it will read the same card. The LED flash is typically 250
milliseconds long. The operation of the LED and beeper may be controlled by the Host, in which case
the actual operation will depend on the programmed timing of the Host.
