Foreword

The present user guide describes the installation and the use of the PRT62LT proximity reader, suitable as a slave unit of an access control system. Further information on advanced features of the reader are included in the Technical Manual of the PRTxx terminal serie.
The reader can be programmed in the following ways:

  • Manually from the built-in keypad or with the Programming Card (see below note)
  • Remotely from PC with optional hardware and software — see Technical Manual

NOTE: the PRT62LT reader can be programmed as the PIN & PROX terminal AKS120P using a proximity card emulating keys. Therefore la the present document It is described how to use this card as the keys of a Pinpad so that some of the commands and instructions shown In the AKS120P User Guide can be used. Please refer to AKS120P User Guide for further info.

Description

PRT62LT is a reader designed for the use into Access Control systems to identify the users using proximity EM 125 Kho TAGS / badges.
The reader can be configured as a slave unit of an access control system (Online mode) connected to the host provided that compatible data interface formats we supported (Wiegand or serial interfaces).
PRT62LT configured as a slave reader, has the sole purpose of reading proximity cards/TAGs and then providing subsequent transmission of such collected data to host controllers for further processing. The unit offers several data transmission formats including popular Wiegand and Magstripe data protocols.
2.1 Features

  • EM 125 Khz proximity TAGs/cards reader (EM410014102 compatible)
  •  Op to 10 cm reading range
  • Tamper switch
  • Outdoor and Indoor Installations
  • Wiegand 26! 32 / 32 reversed! 34 / 42 / 66 bit or Magstripe data format (ABA Track II emulation)
  •  LED control input
  • Buzzer control input

2.2 Proximity cards
PRT62LT is designed for EM 125 Khz standard compatibility – EM4100/4102 transponders. In slave mode (through the Wiegand link). it returns the card number without check sum bits. The card number is transmitted starting from the LSB to MSB and – if required – can contain leading zeros or it can be reduced on the MSB positions.

Operating Modes

3.1 Slave mode
In this mode. PRT62LT operates as a slave unit connected to the external access controller. PRT62LT transmits collected data (wok card ID) to the host for further processing. The most common data formats transmitted by the unit are:

  • Wiegand 26 bit • Wiegand 32 bit (from MSB to LSB)
  •  Wiegand 32 bit reverse (from LSB to MSB)
  • Wiegand 34 bit
  •  Wiegand 42 bit
  •  Wiegand 66 bit
  • Magstripe (ABA track II emulation  Clock & Data)

3.1.1 Wiegand Formats
When employing Wiegand transmission format, data are sent to the host using sequences of short pulses transmitted over CLK and DTA lines. Depending on the selected version of the transmission format, the reader can send 26. 32. 34. 42 or 66 bits to the host. In Wiegand formal a dual color STATUS LED ( Icon) lights steady in red, the OPEN LED ( Icon) is controlled by IN1 input while buzzer is controlled by IN2 input. Both inputs (IN1 & IN2) are triggered by shorting them to negative supply pin. In addition, whenever card is read is read, the reader activates momentary SYSTEM LED ( icon) and buzzer.

REM.: for cards having more bits than the number of available bits in the selected data transmission format, the PRT62LT reader omits the most significant bits (MSBs) of the card code: as a result the transmitted code is not the whole code available on the proximity card.
3.1.2Magstripe(Clock Data)output format
When employing Magstripe transmission format, data are transferred to the host using electric signal waves over the CLK and DTA lines. In Magstripe format the STATUS LED ( icon) lights steady in red, OPEN LED ( icon) is controlled by IN1 input while buzzer is controlled by IN2 input line. Both inputs (IN1 / IN2) are triggered by negative power supply.
In addition, whenever card is read or PIN is entered, the reader activates momentary SYSTEM LED ( icon) and the buzzer.
Card code is always transmitted as a whole number (no digits are lost).

Programming

PRT62LT can be programmed in different ways, including the PC programming with optional hardware and software. In this document it is only described the programming using the prox card emulating the keys of a built-in keypad.
The first step is the memory reset and then programming the desired working mode of the data output.
4.1 Memory reset
The memory reset is a procedure that erase the whole reader memory and enable for programming of the reader operating mode.
In order to achieve the memory reset, follows these steps:

  1. Power down the unit
  2. Remove all connections from CLK and IN1 lines
  3. Make electrical bridge between CLK and IN1
  4. Restore power: PRT62LT will generate continuous beep
  5. While OPEN LED (green) is flashing together with continuous sound, disconnect CLK from IN1: after this step, the memory is erased and the reader is restored to default values and conditions
  6. Wait till SYSTEM LED starts flashing
  7. Enter three digits which will configure the reader (see paragraph 4.3) – with every entered digit the reader emits two beeps. Since the reader is not equipped with a built- in keypad, the keys must be emulated with the method of multiple card reading (see section below).For example, 10x code is representative of a slave reader featuring Wiegand 26 output.
  8.  Once the previous steps are completed, the reader PRT62LT automatically ends the Memory Reset procedure and switches to normal operation mode.

REM.1: when in step n.7 of the above described procedure you will select a code which doesn’t fit any available operating mode or you will stop entering any data for 20 seconds, the reader automatically exit from the Memory Reset procedure.
4.2 Programming PRT62LT reader without keypad
Although PRT62LT reader is not equipped with keypad, it can be programmed manually according to the same programming procedures as readers of the PRTxxLT Serie with keypad. The difference in programming is so that instead of pressing certain keys (like you normally do when programming readers with keypad) you must emulate key as by multiple readings of the Programming Card. This card can be any proximity card that can be used during entire cycle of programming or later in case changes of configuration are needed. The Programming Card is any card that it is used for the first time when requested at the step n.7 of the Memory Reset procedure.
For example in order to emulate key [9] you must read the designated Programming Card 9- times (simply present it to the reader and take it back 9-times) and then wait approx. 3 seconds for the reader to generate a confirmation signal (two beeps) which means that series of card readings were accepted as an equivalent of a single key press and the reader is waiting for the next step of the programming procedure.

Key Emulation Method
[1] Read Programming Card 1-time
[2] Read Programming Card 2-times
[3] Read Programming Card 3-times
[4] Read Programming Card 4-times
[5] Read Programming Card 5-times
[6] Read Programming Card 6-times
[7] Read Programming Card 7-times
[8] Read Programming Card 8-times
[9] Read Programming Card 9-times
[0] Read Programming Card 10-times
[*] Read Programming Card 11-times
[#] Read Programming Card 12-times

WARNING: each time you complete the sequence of multiple readings of the Programming Card wait for the reader to generate confirmation signal (two beeps) which will confirm that reader has accepted series of card readings as the emulation of a single key press.
Example of programming
Emulation of the programming sequence [*][1][0][ID][#] where ID = 113 do the following:

  • [*]: read 11-times the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [1]: read 1-time the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [0]: read 10-times the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [1]: read 1-time the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [1]: read 1-time the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [3]: read 3-times the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps
  • [#]: read 12-times the Programming Card and then wait for two beeps

4.3 Operating Modes
By default the PRT62LT reader is supplied with operating mode = 0. In order to change operating mode, at the step n.7 of the above described Memory Reset procedure, a different three digits code must be entered into the reader as per below table:

Operating modes

Code| Operating mode| Description
0| Modo RACS address = 0| PC on-line programming using dedicated hardware and software (optional).
1| Modo RACS address = 1
2| Modo RACS address = 2
3| Modo RACS address = 3
20| Magstripe mode (see Technical Manual)| The reader operates as a slave unit connected to the host controller which requires Magstripe data transmission format; keys are not transmitted.
21| Modo Magstripe UNITEK mode (see Technical Manual)| The reader operates as a slave unit connected to the host controller which requires Magstripe data transmission format; keys are transmitted as single digits. Format is compatible with specification of UNITEK controllers (with transmission of PINs).
10x| WIEGAND 26 bit| The reader (slave) must be connected to an host requiring the specific Wiegand protocol compatibility.
11x| WIEGAND 34 bit
12x| WIEGAND 42 bit
13x| WIEGAND 66 bit
14x| WIEGAND 32 bit (no parity)
15x| WIEGAND 26 bit (reverse — from LSB to MSB — no parity)

REM.: for Wiegand data formats, the third digit of the operating mode code (marked by “x”) specifies the method used by the reader when transmitting PINs or keys (used only when PRTxxLT reader has a built-in keypad).

Installation Guidelines

Please, refer to the following installation notes for a correct use of the PRT62LT reader.

  • The reader should be installed in such a way to assure physical access to the connection cable; mounting surface should be flat and next to the controlled door
  • Always use cards and TAGs of the EM series whose compatibility is granted
  • Always disponed power supply before making any electrical connections
  • Be aware that when installing the reader directly on a metal surface reduces card reading distance: if the reading range is not enough, it is possible to place a non- metallic 10 mm thick spacer (like a plastic plate) between the reader and the supporting structure
  • For installations with two readers to be mounted on the opposite sides of the same wall and aligned along the same geometrical axis, check first if reading ranges are acceptable on both readers (distance between two proximity readers should be 50 cm); if necessary, place a metal plate (shield) between them and make sure none of two readers has direct contact with it (allow min. 10 mm space). Nevertheless the reading distance will be reduced.
  • Do not use switching power supply units (anyhow short all power supply negatives to ground); linear filtered power supply is preferable; avoid the vicinity with devices able to generate interferences (electric cables, monitors, radio emitting equipment’s, etc.)
