3. Quick start (Reader connected to PC via USB – Full R/W capability)
1. Connect the reader to the host via the USB cable, and switch the reader ON.
2. Windows will detect a new device. Install the “CP210x USB Composite Device”. This driver
can be downloaded from the manufacturer at Silicon Laboratories. Windows will detect
readers above serial number 5020016 as IPICO Proximity readers.
3. Data format: Refer to IPICO’s serial protocol document.
4. Quick start (Reader connected to Host via RS 422 - Full R/W capability)
1. Connect the reader to the host via the RS 422 cable, and switch the reader ON. The Host
can be a PC or any other field device like a PLC. If the host does not support RS422
interface, the user can use any commercial RS422/RS232 converter to connect reader to
the host.
2. Once connected the user can use HyperTerminal, Showtags or any other client application
that can communicate to the reader.
3. Data format: Refer to IPICO’s serial protocol document.
5. Quick start (Reader connected to Host via Wiegand™ - R/O capability)
1. Connect the reader to the host via the Wiegand cable, and switch the reader ON. Reader
will operate in Read Only mode.
2. The Wiegand settings will be hard coded during manufacturing as follows:
a. 26-Bit code. For a 24 bit ID, bits 16 to 39 of the IPICO Tag ID are used (least significant
24 bits excluding the CRC + 2 parity bits).
b. Tpw = 50us, Tpi = 1.8ms and a code retransmit rate of 100ms.
c. D0 and D1 are open-collector outputs. User need to supply external pull-up resistors
to VCC at the host device.
d. LED input can be driven by +5V signal from the host device.
