100 for AxiomV™
Wavetrend Long Range Reader Interface
In this interface the PC100 is programmed to communicate with Wavetrend
readers while emulating an RC-2 for an AXIOM system. WAVE57 (or higher)
firmware is required. It works with the NC100 firmware version 7.60 or higher
and software version 5.2.17 release3 or higher.
The wavetrend RF Tag reader model L-RX201 can be interfaced with the Axiom
Access Control System so that credentials can be tracked throughout an access
control installation.
Interface Method
The method of interfacing consists of a PC100 emulating eight RC-2s. Each
wavetrend reader attached to the reader network will be assigned to its own
virtual RC-2.
For example:
five readers attached to a network.

DIP-SWITCH Settings
The Axiom Access Control System starts its RC addresses at address 1 and can
support up to eight devices ending at address 8. To make the DIP-switches
capable of selecting the range of addresses to which the emulator will respond,
an offset address scheme has been developed. The first four switches create
the start offset and the last four switches create the end offset.
Desired
Address = DIP a 1
. The device when polled will answer any address
that falls between the desired start and end addresses (inclusive). If the end
address is smaller than (or equal to) the start address only the start address will
be used.
