Could we connect Suprema device to Access Control Unit through Wiegand?

Could we use Wiegand of Suprema device to connect Access Control Unit?


[Figure 1. System Configuration for Wiegand Output ]


Yes, Suprema device can be a reader to send Wiegand signal to 3rd party Access Control Unit such as NET2 of PAXTON , iSTAR of CCURE, or OnGuard Controller of Lenel.


You should consider the below step to use Wiegand data between Suprema Device and 3rd party ACU.

[Figure 2. Step for Wiegand Output Usage]



To send WIEGAND output, you should check the below configuration and follow the description.

Please make sure that if the user information is stored in the 3rd party ACU's software. 


Step 1. Wiegand Wiring

1. Refer Wiegand cable from device manual and connect 3 cables of Wiegand part between Suprema device and ACU

- Most important part is that pin map of Wiegand port of a device.

Step 2. Device Configuration

1. Add a device to BioStar 2


2. Confirm your card type which you are going to use

2-1. CSN Card type: Mifare (13.56 Mhz), Felica (13.56Mhz), EM Card (125 kHz)


2-2. WIEGAND card Type: iClass Card (13.56Mhz),  HID Prox Card (125 kHz)

3. Follow the configuration following the card type


<CSN CARD>

3-1. Click [Setting] > [Card Format]


following3-2. Click the red box as follows to add new Wiegand format in accordance with Wiegand data 


3-3. Let's say you have 34 bit Mifare CSN card. The configuration is as follows.



3-3 Click [Device] and choose the connected device to configure additional configuration

3-4 Click CSN Card Format and select Format Type as [Wiegand

3-5 Choose one of Wiegand format from the [Wiegand Format] of CSN Card Format



<Wiegand Card>

3-6 Choose the predefined card format from the [Wiegand Card Format]

3-7. If there is not a Wiegand format that you need, go to [Setting]>[Wiegand] and configure it


4. Click [Advance] and set WIEGAND INPUT/OUTPUT to [OUTPUT]


5. Set Pulse Interval from 10000 to 5000 or correct information referring to the below list.
