xpr B100PROX-EHAH Biometric Proximity Reader

DESCRIPTION

B100PROX-EH(AH) is a Wiegand biometric and Proximity(EM/HID (AWID/HID) compatible) reader for indoors access control applications. It offers storage up to 100 fingerprints and programmable Wiegand Output (8 to 128 bits).
Configuration of the readers and fingerprint enrollment is done through PC Software.
Connection between the biometric readers is RS-485 and it is used for fingerprint transfer and configuration. When used with third party controllers, the connection between the Biometric readers and the PC is done through a converter CNV200-RS-485 to USB or CNV1000-RS-485 to TCP/IP). Only one converter is needed per system (one converter for 1, 2, 3…30, 31 Biometric readers)
The tamper switch output can trigger the alarm system, if an attempt is made to open or remove the unit from the wall.
The sensor incorporates dedicated sensing hardware to facilitate the detection of “spoofing” attacks based on fake fingers. This data is embedded into the image data stream, and is processed on the processor. The system is capable of detecting and defeating well known fake finger mechanisms, such as molded “gummy” fingers.
The coating on the surface of the TouchChip sensor provides protection from scratching and abrasion due to normal contact with fingertips and any incidental contact with fingernails.

WIRING

CONNECTING BIOMETRIC READERS TO EWS CONTROLLER

• The Biometric readers can be connected to virtually any controller that conforms to Wiegand format standards (standard Wiegand 26bit or self-defined Wiegand).
• The lines D0 and D1 are the Wiegand lines and the Wiegand Number is sent through them.
• The RS-485 line (A, B) is used for fingerprint transfer and reader settings.
• The Biometric readers must be powered from the controller.
• If you use different power supply for the biometric reader, connect the GND from the both devices to ensure correct transfer of the wiegand signal
• When you have connected the reader and powered on, the LED should flash in orange light + 2 beeps. This lets you know it’s on and ready for use.
• Fingerprint enrollment is done from the PC Software. Connection between the Biometric readers and the PC must be established.
  

CONNECTING BIOMETRIC READERS IN SAME RS-485 LINE WITH THE EWS

CONTROLLERS

• The Biometric readers are connected through RS-485 bus. The same RS-485 bus that the EWS controllers are connected to.
• Maximum units in one network (EWS + Biometric readers) is 32.
• If there are more than 32 units in one network, please utilize RS-485 HUB to connect.
• The RS-485 Line should be configured in the form of a daisy chain, NOT in a form of a star. If star must be used in some points, keep the stubs from the RS-485 backbone as short as possible. Maximum length of the stub is dependent of the installation (total number of devices in RS-485 line (total cable length, termination, cable type…) so recommendation is to keep stubs shorter than
• meters, keeping in mind that this can be possible reason for errors in communication with PC software
• The cable must be twisted and shielded with a min. 0.2 mm2 cross section.
• Connect the ground (0V) of each unit in the RS-485 Line using a third wire in the same cable.
• The shield of the communication cable between two devices must be connected to the EARTH from ONE side of the RS-485 Line. Use the side that has earth connection to the building’s grounding network.

CONNECTING BIOMETRIC READERS WHEN ALL THE CONTROLLERS HAVE TCP/IP

COMMUNICATION

• When all the controllers are connected via TCP/IP, then the RS-485 network becomes local (from Reader 1 to the Controller then to the Reader 2).
• Connect the readers directly to the RS-485 terminals in each controller.
• If the distance Reader-Controller is high (50meters) and if the communication with the reader can not be established, then terminate the RS-485 network by closing the jumper in the EWS Controller or as described in chapter 4.

NOTE: This is recommended configuration when you have multiple biometric readers in the same network. In this configuration, NO TERMINATION resistors are required.
When all the controllers have TCP/IP communication the biometric readers are easily wired. When the controllers have RS-485 communication, it is difficult to maintain the daisy chain of the RS-485 network. Wiring the biometric readers in that formation is a challenge. See the schematic diagram bellow.

RS-485 TUNING

RS-485 Termination resistors:

• Terminate both ends of the line with 120 Ohm resistor. If end of line is EWS, use built in resistor (120 ohm) by closing the jumper.
• If the communication is not established and stable, use the external resistors provided in the hardware kit.

When using CAT 5 compatible cable, in most of the cases, termination made with 50 Ohm external resistor or combination of 50 Ohm external and termination resistor from the EWS (120 Ohm) should be the solution.

CONNECTING BIOMETRIC READERS TO THIRD PARTY CONTROLLERS

• Connect the lines D0, D1, Gnd and +12V to the third party controller.
• Connect the RS-485 Line (A, B) to the converter. Connect the converter in the PC.
• Fingerprint enrollment is done from the PC Software. Connection between the Biometric readers and the PC must be established.
• The Biometric readers communicate with each other with a RS-485 and with the PC Software through a Converter.
• The RS-485 Line should be configured in the form of a daisy chain, NOT in a form of a star. Keep the stubs from the RS-485 backbone as short as possible (not more than 5 meters)
• Only one converter per installation is needed, not per reader

CONVERTERS PIN DESCRIPTION

CNV200
Converter RS-485 to USB Requires installation as USB serial device (refer to CNV200 Manual).

CNV1000
Converter RS-485 to TCP/IP Does not require installation. IP address set through Internet Browse.

ENROLLMENT

Follow the below instructions for correct finger swiping Starting from the first finger joint, place the selected finger on the swipe sensor and move it evenly towards oneself in one steady movement.
Result:
For a valid swipe: Tricolour Status LED turns green + OK Beep(short + long beep)
For an invalid or misread swipe : Tricolour Status LED turns red + Error Beep (3 short beeps).

CUSTOM WIEGAND

BIOMANAGER CS has defined Wiegand 26, 30, 34, 40 bit as standard options and other 3 Wiegand settings as user definable.
To setup custom Wiegand format
Select Wiegand menu from **Settings.

** At Wiegand setup window select one from customs Wiegand

Set Wiegand parameter

Click on Save button.

Note:
Wiegand settings are out of scope for common end user. Please ask your installer to set the parameters and do not change it later.

WIEGAND PROTOCOL DESCRIPTION

The data is sent over the lines DATA 0 for the logic “0” and DATA 1 for the logic “1”. Both lines use inverted logic, meaning that a
pulse low on DATA 0 indicates a “0” and a pulse low on DATA 1 indicates a “1”.When the lines are high, no data is being sent. Only 1 of the 2 lines ( DATA 0 / DATA 1 ) can pulse at the same time.
Example: data 0010….

Data bit 0 = approximately 100 us (microseconds)
Data bit 1 = approximately 100 us (microseconds)

Time between two data bits: approximately 1 ms (millisecond). Both data lines (D0 and D1) are high.

Description for the 26 bits Wiegand format

Each data block consists of a first parity bit P1, a fixed 8 bits header, 16 bits of user code and a 2nd parity bit P2. Such a data block is shown bellow:

Parity bit (bit 1) + 8 bits header + 16 bits user code = 2 bytes + Parity bit (bit 26)
P1 XXXXXXXX XXXXYYYY YYYYYYYY P2

Example: 170 31527
1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 11 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0

Note: Parity bits are calculated as follows:
P1 = even parity calculated over the bits 2 to 13 (X)
P2 = odd parity calculated over the bits 14 to 25 (Y)

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not install the device in a place subject to direct sun light without protective cover.
Do not install the device and cabling close to a source of strong electro- magnetic fields like radio-transmitting antenna.
Do not place the device near or above heating equipment’s.
If cleaning, do not spray or splash water or other cleaning liquids but wipe it out with smooth cloth or towel.
Do not let children touch the device without supervision.
Note that if the sensor is cleaned by detergent, benzene or thinner, the surface will be damaged and the fingerprint can’t be entered.
