ENTERING PROGRAMMING MODE
*00nnnn#
Before you can configure the reader you must enter programming mode by using this command. You must enter the
correct four-digit security PIN for the reader. The factory default is 1234.
For example, to place a factory-configured reader into programming mode you should enter *001234#. If no keys are
pressed, programming mode will timeout after 30 seconds without saving the changes you have made.
SET PIN MODE
*01n#
This programming command allows you to set up how the reader handles keypad data. The reader is capable of
outputting keypad data in a number of industry-standard formats. The following modes are supported:
0 – Disabled (i.e. no keypad output).
1 – HID 4-Bit Wiegand Burst (Factory Default)
2 – Dorado 8-Bit Wiegand Burst (also compatible with Indala)
3 – Mercury 8-Bit Wiegand Burst
4 – 1 Digit Clock & Data
5 – Dorado 8-Bit Burst
6 – 8 Digit Clock & Data
7 – 5 Digit Buffered to 26-Bit Wiegand Output (Sensor-26, Site Code = 0..255, Card No. = 0..65535)
8 – HID 32-Bit Wiegand Output (Site Code = 0..65535,Card No. = 0..65535)
9 – 7-Digit Buffered to 34-Bit Wiegand Output (Sensor-34, Site Code = 0..4095,Card No. = 0..1048575)
For example, to set the reader to buffer keystrokes and output them in the industry-standard 26-bit format you should
enter *017# once the reader has been placed into programming mode.
SET AUDIBLE TONE ON CODE
*02n#
During the entry of a buffered PIN (PIN modes 7,8 and 9), you have the option of allowing the reader to issue a
confirmation beep or an error triple-beep on entering the PIN.
Once the reader has been placed into programming mode, enter *021# to enable the audible tone, *020# to disable
the audible tone on PIN entry. By default, the audible tone is disabled.
SET AUDIBLE TONE ON CARD
*03n#
During the entry of a buffered PIN (PIN modes 7,8 and 9), you have the option of allowing the reader to issue a
confirmation beep or an error triple-beep on presenting the card.
Once the reader has been placed into programming mode, enter *031# to enable the audible tone, *030# to disable
the audible tone on PIN entry. By default, the audible tone is disabled.
SET PROXIMITY READING
*04n#
This programming command allows you to disable transmission of the proximity card data by the reader.
The reader will still beep to indicate that it has read the card. To disable transmission of the card data, enter *040#
once the reader has been placed into programming mode.
To enable transmission, enter *041#. By default, transmission is enabled.
SET LED CONFIGURATION
*05n#
LED’s may be configured for the following modes.
0 – TM5 Standard LED Configuration
1 – Traffic Light, Plus Buzzer
2 – Mon LED, Plus Buzzer
3 – TM4 Standard LED Configuration
4 – TM4, Plus Buzzer
SET SITE CODE
*06nnnnn#
Set the site code number that is combined with the card number read from the card and sent out as the complete card
info message. The unit accepts site codes from zero to 65535 although the maximum valid value depends on the
output format.
SET SECURITY PIN
*98oooonnnn#
To ensure the security of the reader, it is important that a new security PIN is entered during installation to prevent
unauthorised individual from reconfiguring the reader.
For example, to change the factory default PIN of 1234 to 6767 you should enter *9812346767# one the reader has
been placed into programming mode.
SAVE CHANGES AND EXIT
*99#
Once you have set the configuration options you require for the reader, you must save them by entering this
programming command. You must enter *99# to save the changes you have made to the reader’s configuration.
