Wiegand to Serial

Configurable Wiegand Converter with flash memory for data conversion.

Overview

The Wiegand Converter integrates all standard Wiegand based reader technologies into other applications. The
Converter has multiple uses:

  • As a pcProx® card data converter, it translates all major Wiegand data outputs to USB, RS-232, RS-485 or TTL
  • Provides the computer/terminal/PLC interface when using ID badges for more than door access

The converter output is sent to the serial port either as ASCII characters or through a callable DLL for software developers.
Selectable card information can be configured in the converter’s flash memory using free software. Perfect for those
requiring pcProx/AIR ID® Enroll functionality but require an outdoor reader with longer read range.
