NCS 29 Bit: An older format that is used by Northern Control Systems and is a 29 Bit Format.
HID 34 Bit: A standard HID format consisting of a 16 digit site code and a 16 digit card number with
parity calculated on the end two bits.
HID 26/34 Bit: A dual format consisting of the standard 26 Bit and Standard 34 Bit formats.
Auto - Wiegand: Automatically selects the best available Wiegand format from the formats to decode
the card.
Auto - Magnetic: Automatically selects the best available Magnetic Card format from the formats to
decode the card data.
36 Bit (IEI): A standard 36 Bit Output format that is compatible with the IEI keypads, this allows
wiegand data to be received from the keypad as a card number. This format can also be used with
compatible card reading devices.
34 Bit (Pass): Decodes the Pass Point 34 Bit Cards used on the HID Card Readers in to the correct
large card number 32 bits and standard site code.
34 Bit (Pass NP): Decodes the Pass Point 34 Bit Cards used on the HID Card Readers however skips
the parity validation on the data stream to allow the Nano Prox card readers to be retrofitted to new or
existing doors that use the Pass Point cards.
Any Bit (Raw): Any Bit format decodes ANY wiegand data stream up to 64 bits and then presents this
to the system using the multiple decoding display. The display contains encoded data based on the raw
data stream sent by the card reader. This allows ANY wiegand reader to operate on the Protege
System in a native data format. This format will decode the data explicitly and can be used to verify
wiegand data streams.
26 Bit (NP): Decodes a standard 26 bit wiegand data stream however skips the parity validation portion
of the wiegand data. This format can be used when certain card formats have parity detection reversed
or if the parity calculation deviates from the standard.
34 Bit (NP): Decodes a standard 34 bit wiegand data stream however skips the parity validation portion
of the wiegand data. This format can be used when certain card formats have parity detection reversed
or if the parity calculation deviates from the standard.
First 5 Track 2: The first 5 digits of a track 2 card will be used as the card number and a site code of 0
will be generated for the card swipe.
Apollo 44 Bit: Decodes an encrypted 44 bit wiegand data stream from the AMDI Apollo format card
readers. The card number received will match the hot stamp card number. Site codes may vary but will
typically be the preceding 3 digits.
CANSEC 37 Bit
Tecom 27 Bit
HID Corp 1000: A 35 bit format with a unique Company ID Code and over 1,000,000 card numbers
available for use.
Reader Location: The reader location informs the reader expander which location of the door the reader is
installed at, which is connected to the reader expander port. The reader expander uses this information to
pass the correct direction of travel to the door control functions. For an access door this should be set to
'Entry' reader.
When using the reader with a door that controls an inside or outside area for arming or disarmed or for
global anti-passback the ENTRY and EXIT configuration must be set correctly to ensure the correct action is
taken by the reader expander.
Exit: The reader is located on the inside of the door and is used to exit out of the area that is being
protected by the door.
Entry: The reader is located on the outside of the door and is used to enter in to the area that is being
protected by the door. This is the default setting and should be set for all general access doors (single
reader)
If the reader expander is configured for multiplex reader mode the multiplexed reader is ALWAYS the
EXIT reader.
Reader Mode: The reader expander port mode.
Access: The reader expander port is used to control access through doors. You must configure the
door that is controlled by this reader expander.
