Delta Series Mifare Readers Quick Reference Guide 2177 Leghorn Street 05465-001 Rev. 1.1 Mountain View, CA 94043-1605 USA 1 of 2 Tel: +1-650-964-2615 Fax: +1-650-988-6687 Web: http://www.farpointedata.com E-mail: [email protected] The Delta Series models include the Delta3, Delta5, and Delta 6.4. The Delta 6.4 is simply a Delta5 with a keypad attachment. All Delta Series Readers are compliant with the following organizations: FCC compliance Statement: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes made to this equipment that is not authorized by Farpointe Data Inc. may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. 1.0 Cable Requirements All readers operate at up to 500 feet (152 m) of cable, using nine-conductor, shielded, stranded cable. Per the Security Industry Association’s Wiegand specification, AWG 24 (such as Belden 9539) is the minimum gauge required for data transfer in a 500-foot run length. However, the proper wire gauge to use must be determined by the current draw requirements of the reader, the length of the cable run, and the voltage applied to the reader. If the reader is to be operated at 5 VDC, 5 VDC must be available at the reader (long cable runs have a voltage drop due to the resistance in the cable). A larger gauge of wire (having less resistance) or a separate power supply near the reader may be required to ensure 5 VDC is available at the reader. 2.0 Reader Modes Delta Series readers can be configured to operate in any of the following modes: • Sector Only Mode: Reader looks for access control data in a secure sector but if no valid data is found the reader outputs nothing. This is the default mode. • CSN Only Mode: Reader does not look for access control data in a secure sector data and simply outputs the card’s CSN. • Sector Plus CSN Mode: reader looks for access control data in a secure sector but if none is found the reader outputs the card’s CSN instead. 3.0 CSN Output Formats Delta Series readers can be configured to output the card’s CSN in any of the following ways: • 32-bit Wiegand: The reader outputs the 32-bit CSN as Wiegand data starting with the MSB. This is the default mode. • 26-bit Wiegand: The reader outputs 26-bit Wiegand data comprised of the 16 lower bits of the 32-bit CSN, fixed 8-bit facility code, and beginning and ending parity bits. Facility code defaults to 001 (Note: cutting off 16 MSBs from CSN can cause card duplication). • 34-bit Wiegand: The reader outputs 34-bit Wiegand data comprised of the 32-bit CSN MSB first plus beginning and ending parity bits. • 40-bit Wiegand: The reader outputs 40-bit Wiegand data comprised of the 32-bit CSN followed by an 8-bit check sum. • Magnetic Stripe (ABA Track II, clock and data, with card present): 32-bit CSN is output in ABA Track II format. 4.0 Secure Sector Access Control Data Output Formats Access control data programmed onto a secure mifare sector can be output in any of the following ways: • Wiegand (industry standard 26-bit Wiegand and custom formats) • Magnetic Stripe (ABA Track II, clock and data, with card present) 5.0 Grounding Shield (drain) continuity must run from the reader to the access panel. Shield (drain) and reader ground must be tied together at the access panel and connect to an earth ground at one point. 6.0 Power Reference Document Delta Series Mifare Readers Delta Series Mifare Readers Quick Reference Guide 2177 Leghorn Street 05465-001 Rev. 1.1 Mountain View, CA 94043-1605 USA 2 of 2 Tel: +1-650-964-2615 Fax: +1-650-988-6687 Web: http://www.farpointedata.com E-mail: [email protected] A reader may be powered by the access panel, so the reader is powered on when the access supply is powered on. However the best case is to power the reader by a separate, linear power supply. 7.0 Voltage • Can range from 5 to 14 VDC, 12 VDC is nominal 8.0 Reader Wiring Please note that at minimum the power, ground, data 0, and data 1 lines must be connected to the access panel.

Test Report

Farpointe Data FCC ID: T8I-DELTA Report No. 06PR048FCC Rev1.1 13 December 2006 page1 Test Report for Unlicensed Low Power Transmitter FCC Applicable Rule Parts: 15.205, 15.207, 15.209 Applicant: Farpointe Data Inc. 2177 Leghorn Street Mountain View, CA 94043 FCC ID: T8I-DELTA Model Nos .: Delta 3, Delta 5, Delta 6.4 Description of device: The DELTA Series Proximity line of OEM proximity readers, cards, and tags are low frequency, non-contact, identification solutions based upon the latest techniques in radio frequency identification (RFID). The proximity reader has a receiver circuit, a microprocessor, and a 13.56 MHz exciter circuit that includes a magnetic coil. The tags and cards that are read by the reader have a highly reliable radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), attached to a magnetic coil inside a durable, environmentally secure plastic housing. The referenced models all use the same RF transmit and receive circuits, the differences among models consist of coil size, non-RF features such as keypads, and form factors. Model Delta 5 has the largest coil and the highest output power at the fundamental. Model Delta 6.4 is a Delta 5 with a digital keypad entry and is worst-case representative for both radiated and line conducted emissions. Model Delta 3 is identical to model Delta 5 with a smaller coil and lower radiated emissions at the fundamental. TEST REQUIREMENTS The referenced device is subject to certification under Part 2 of FCC Rules. The specific emissions limits and test requirements are found in Part 15 of FCC Rules. In addition to the device specific requirements listed in 15.225 (re-printed below), the following Part 15 requirements are universal to all unlicensed transmitters and would also apply: 15.19 Labeling requirements 15.20 Accessories 15.21 Information to user 15.31 Measurement standards 15.33 Frequency range of measurements 15.35 Measurement detector functions and bandwidths 15.109 Radiated Emissions (unintentional radiators) 15.203 Antenna requirement 15.204 External radio frequency power amplifiers and antenna modifications. 15.205 Restricted bands of operation. 15.207 Conducted limits Farpointe Data FCC ID: T8I-DELTA Report No. 06PR048FCC Rev1.1 13 December 2006 page2 15.209 Radiated emission limits, general requirements. 15.225 Operation within the band 13.110 – 14.010 MHz REVISION INFORMATION AND ATTESTATION OF RESULTS Report No: 06PR048FCC REV No. Description Revised By: Date - Original Issue T.
