iCLASS Programming Platform

HID Global's iCLASS Programming Platform allows the programming of a configured iCLASS card

through a FARGO

HDP printer, increasing the flexibility of programming options for customers.

Through this platform, the HID Access Control Application is programmed directly to a card with unique

facility codes and card numbers. This tool allows a dealer or integrator to support multiple customers with

a stock of configured cards, programming the cards only when the customer wishes. For the dealer or

integrator, increase flexibility offering fully programmed iCLASS cards at a moment’s notice.

End-users benefit from this platform by maintaining control over their facility codes and card numbers,

printing identification badges within their own facility. Use the iCLASS Programming Platform to replace

lost badges on the spot instead of having to experience any delays from re-ordering an iCLASS card from

their local dealer or integrator.

Components of the iCLASS Programming Platform

• Configured iCLASS Credentials

• iCLASS Programming Platform Encoder installed within an Fargo HDP Printer

• iCLASS Programming Platform Smart Card containing a specific facility code and the number of

credential credits purchased

• Fargo HDP 5000 or HDPii Printer

• Asure ID Card Personalization Software (Enterprise Version)

Configured iCLASS Credentials

Configured iCLASS Credentials come with all your standard card body options, including PVC and

Composite makeup, from 2k to 32k in size. A configured iCLASS Credential has the Access Control

Application loaded with the application lay-out defined, but does not contain specific facility codes or card

numbers. These are added through the iCLASS Programming Platform.

Encoder

The iCLASS Programming Platform Encoder is a specialized version of an HID encoder that installs

directly to the HDP Printer. This encoder communicates with the iCLASS Programming Platform Smart

Card and Asure ID Card Personalization Software to program cards with the appropriate facility code,

card number and other data. In a single pass, program this card data, and enable a personalized photo,

background image or other security features through the Fargo printer.

Smart Card with Facility Code and Credential Credits

Order the iCLASS Programming Platform Smart Card with a specific facility code and required number of

credential credits. When inserting this smart card into an external contact smart card reader (OMNIKEY

readers offer several options), the iCLASS Programming Platform Smart Card communicates with the

iCLASS Programming Platform Encoder allowing the programming of a configured iCLASS Credential

with the appropriate facility code and other information from Asure ID.
