1 Introducon
The Gallagher T15 Reader is a smart card proximity reader. It can be installed as either an entry reader
or exit reader. The reader contains an NXP chip for improved read range performance and supports
Bluetooth® technology for hands-free access.
The reader sends informaon to the Gallagher Controller and acts upon informaon sent from the
Gallagher Controller. The reader itself does not make any access decisions.
The reader is available in eight variants. The card technologies for each variant are shown below.

The reader can be connected as an HBUS Reader or Cardax IV Reader. An HBUS Reader uses the HBUS
communicaons protocol to communicate with the Gallagher Controller 6000. A Cardax IV Reader uses
the Cardax IV communicaons protocol to communicate with a Gallagher Controller.
HBUSReaderCompability
HBUS communicaons are only supported for sites running Command Centre v7.00 soware (or later).
GallagherMulTechReaders
Gallagher strongly recommends against using dual technology 125/Mifare cards with Gallagher Mul
Tech readers for sites running pre-Command Centre v7.00 soware. From Command Centre v7.00, a
site may specify which technology a Mul Tech reader should read o a dual technology card.

Gallagher PIV Readers connect to the Gallagher Controller 6000 High Spec PIV (C305101) only (referred
to as the Controller). Gallagher PIV Readers can only be used with sites running Gallagher Command
Centre vEL7.10 soware (or later). Gallagher PIV Readers are connected as HBUS Readers only.
