Refer to Section 9.6: Fingerprint Placement: Lock, Drop & Hold for further

details.

If no such connection is provided, Bioscrypt will consider that the reader was

not properly installed and may consider the warranty void.

8.3. External Wiegand Reader

The V-Smart reader shall include an embedded Gemplus MIFARE contactless

smart card reader. The V-Smart shall NOT have the ability to read proximity

Wiegand sequences directly. The V-Smart by default shall generate a

Wiegand output sequence based on the fingerprint template ID number. If

using dual-technology contactless smart cards (such as HID 1431 Smart + Prox

cards), the designated V-Smart enrollment station may optionally capture the

Wiegand sequence as provided by the proximity portion of the card by

means of an external proximity card reader. Once captured, the sequence

may be written to the smart card along with the enrolled fingerprint template

where the two items are linked together. When the dual-technology cards

are used in this fashion, V-Smart readers used for access control shall simply

send the Wiegand sequence from the smart card to the Access Control

System. In this case, the Wiegand output sent by V-Smart shall be identical to

the Wiegand output sent by the proximity card reader when the same card is

presented to both devices. Any V-Smart readers used for access control shall

NOT require the connection to the external card reader.

To enroll cards in this manner, a direct connection shall be required from the

proximity card reader to the Wiegand input lines of the V-Smart reader that

has been designated as the enrollment station using the following three

conductors:

 Wiegand In Data 0 (Pin 2) connected to the card reader Data 0

 Wiegand In Data 1 (Pin 4) connected to the card reader Data 1

 Wiegand GND (Pin 6) connected to the card reader Power GND*

An 18 – 22 AWG cable should be used for this connection. The V-Smart reader

by default shall have the Wiegand input activated for Standard 26-bit

Wiegand format. The reader shall support other formats. Refer to Appendix B:

Wiegand Protocol for further information.

*Wiegand GND (Pin 6) should be commoned to both Power GND on the

external Wiegand reader and the Access Control System reader Power GND

if Wiegand output is also used (refer to Section 8.4: Access Control System).
