Rs485 Reader Software

[Rynn Bronaugh]

Ihave connected an RFID reader (PDF data sheet attached) to an Arduino Uno using a MAX485 IC. After some time playing with termination resistors I have started to get some promising information fed through "myserial" pin (pin2).

When a sample tag is waved in front of the reader, the reader beeps and sends info automatically. This info can be seen in the attached picture (RFID_MMIcode_screenshot_01). Although the info looks ok, could this still be rubbish data?

According to the MAX485 datasheet (figure 21), you should have a resistor (120 Ohm) between the two output pins, not resistors to Vcc and GND; I don't know how they need to be calculated but I would start with the 120 Ohm. I wonder where you got the idea from to use pullup and pulldown (it might be valid, I don't know).

Your data in the screenshot does not seem to be correct. According to the datasheet of the reader, the communication is text based (so why are you printing decimal?). Anything you receive should be between '[' (91 decimal, 5B hex) and ']' (93 decimal, 5D hex); I don't see those.

I've used two different grounds (GND5 / Arduino ground and GND12 / RFID power supply ground) because it's not known if they are connected. If GND12 of the power supply is connected to GND5 of the Arduino, replace the question marks by GND5.

RS485 is currently a widely used communication interface in data acquisition and control applications where multiple nodes communicate with each other. RS485 is also the most versatile communcation standard in the standard series defined by the EIA.In circumstances which require to use multiple readers, RS485 communication shows how it is important. With RS485 readers, you can reduce the cost of control panel and make the control much more accurate.RS485 Reader Series let you connect multiple readers to the control panel in one single RS485 port, which can enlarge the control panel card reader capacity. Also, RS485 has excellent transfer rate that allows long-distance transfer up to 1200m (theoretical value). Therefore, RS485 reader are perfect tool for multiple access solutions in scalable area.

With 8 inputs that can be used for extended monitoring functionality, and 6 open collector outputs available for management of controllable devices, the Reader Expander features extensive hardware advancements that support flexible security and access control, alarm monitoring and building automation.

Extending the Protege system with local inputs and outputs from the Reader Expander allows for a convenient, cost effective expansion and the added benefit of dual functionality on door monitoring inputs.

RS-485 readers provide the added benefits of being easier and more cost effective to wire and deploy, and allow for direct integration with Protege systems, enabling you to make changes on the fly once readers are installed. RS-485 also allows for longer cable runs and offers a simpler firmware update process.

* The Total Combined Current refers to the current that will be drawn from the external power supply to supply the expander and any devices connected to its outputs. The Auxiliary outputs are directly connected via thermal resettable fuses to the N+ N- input terminals, and the maximum current is governed by the trip level of these fuses.

The ICT implementation of OSDP conforms to a subset of the OSDP functionality. For specifications and reader configuration, refer to AN-254 Configuring OSDP Readers, available from the Integrated Control Technology website.

This equipment carries the RCM label and complies with EMC and radio communications regulations of the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) governing the Australian and New Zealand (AS/NZS) communities.

Protege systems conform to AS/NZS 2201.1:2007 Class 5 intruder alarm systems standards for the construction, operation, performance and installation of intruder alarm equipment and systems installed in client's premises.

This equipment complies with the rules, of the Official Journal of the European Union, for governing the Self Declaration of the CE Marking for the European Union as specified in the above directives.

This equipment complies with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference; (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

The EasySecure decoder is a data encryption and authentication device for read-only readers. This smart decoder converts Secure RS485 channel into plain Wiegand or Clock&Data to be easily interfaced with existing access control systems.

Most access control systems provide unsecured communication links between the access control panel and the reader. Wiring is often a weak point where data can be sniffed and manipulated.

To protect against is this vulnerability, STid has developed the EasySecure decoder to be used in conjunction with the latest generation of contactless secure readers. This module secures the communication between reader and safe zone through data encryption (AES) and authentication procedure (SHA). The security decoder uses RS485 serial communication with the reader for flexible and easy wiring.

This card reader is not just a card reader. It has an output that can pulse out simulating a coin mech pulse or it can keep the output on similar to our BayMaster Retro. This device is perfect for Vacuums, Air Pumps or any device that needs credit card activation. Rs485 Card Reader also works with Gift Cards, Fleet Cards, and Credit Cards.

Use one smart card reader to read standard proximity format data from HID iCLASS credentials or unique serial numbers from MIFARE cards/ Confidently install the reader knowing that the Wiegand output easily interfaces with most existing Wiegand protocol access control panels/ To support read/write applications, the bi-directional RS485 serial port provides a connection to a PC or microcontroller./ All RF data transmission between the card and smart card reader is encrypted using a secure algorithm

The Wiegand/RS485 P40 proximity reader is a bi-protocol key reader.

Thanks to a switch, it switches from Wiegand open protocol to FDI secure, proprietary protocol.

By default, this reader only processes FDI secure Mifare Plus keys/passes (FD-010-200). It has a 58-bit Wiegand output.

Its behaviour and its output format can be modified by encoding on the settings tool, then showing a configuration key/pass to the reader.

With its up-to-the-minute design, it can be easily integrated in your commercial and residential projects. In addition to Mifare RFID technology, this reader offers the opportunity to work with Bluetooth virtual credentials.

The proximity reader is connected via 5 wires (RS485) and up to 8 wires (Wiegand).

In RS485 mode, communication is two-way and permanent with the iPassan access controller LPU. The controller is real-time aware if the reader is connected.

The VSR20DSC is an IP65 rated proximity card reader to be used with the MCP-040 four door controllers. The VSR20DSC has a 13.56MHz card reader format and utilises the RS485 OSDP protocol to communicate with the MCP-040. It features a low profile which makes it ideal for retrofitting. The VSR20DSC also has configurable Wiegand communication on board for use with 3rd party door controllers.

Access control card readers are used in physical security systems to read a credential that allows access through access control points, typically a locked door. An access control reader can be a magnetic stripe reader, a bar code reader, a proximity reader, a smart card reader, or a biometric reader.
