82 Module 124: Protege GX Hardware Overview | Proximity Readers
Proximity Readers
Wiegand Interface
ICT offers a range of Proximity Readers and Reader Expander modules. A standard Wiegand interface means
that ICT Readers can be used on any system that supports standard Wiegand readers. It also means that we
support 3rd party standard Wiegand readers.
 Maximum cable run from Reader to Expander = 150m
 Approved cable types = 22Awg alpha 5196, 5198, 18Awg alpha 5386, 5388
The Wiegand interface and communications protocol are not an ICT or Protege proprietary standard. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiegand_interface for more information.
125Khz Card Readers
ICT 125KHz Card Readers offer superior functionality by being programmed to read all popular 125KHz cards
including Position Technology, HID, Paradox and ICT cards. The card reading technology is selected via the
reader programming.
LED Operation
Dual LED Outputs and independently operated beeper connections allow card readers to integrate with all
existing and new installations. The units are programmable using a programming card.
In single LED operation the unused spare LED input can be programmed to function as a command button for
Wiegand control messages (REX, REN, arm button).

 Bi color LED (red and green) with independent or single LED control
 Programmable Wiegand data formats from 26 to 128 Bit with card configured Output
 Keep alive transmission every 30 seconds for intelligent tamper management
 Fully encapsulated design for outdoor and indoor operation
 Beeper activation does not prevent card read operation
 LEDs and Beepers can be used for other functions such as displaying area arming status
 Extensive programmable features using programming card
