Outdoor Mifare reader, 13.56MHz , keypad, two function keys, I/O

The MCT12M series readers are outdoor RFID access terminals dedicated for RACS 5 access control system. Readers need to be connected to a host device, which usually is an access controller, and can’t operate autonomously. The MCT12M terminal can read either factory programmed card serial number (CSN) or any user card number (PCN) programmed in encrypted data blocks or files on a card. Because the CSN card numbers are not encrypted and can be duplicated the PCN numbers should be used for access control systems in general. For systems which require the highest security level the MIFARE DESFire EV1 or MIFARE Plus cards, supported by MCT12M-DES-IO and MCT12M-BK-DES-IO terminals, are recommended. The MCT12M series readers with option IO offer the set of inputs and outputs which, in most cases, should be capable to operate single door passage without necessity to use inputs or outputs located on access controller or expansion unit. There are three inputs available on the reader which can be individually configured for various pulse times and contact topologies. Optionally, inputs can be configured for Double Wiring function which allows operation with two NO/NC contacts connected to a single input and, doubles the total number of input signals monitored by the reader. Reader offers two open collector transistor outputs and one relay type output with single isolated NO/NC contact. All outputs can be configured for Normal Polarity (output normally OFF) or Reverse Polarity (output normally ON). Communication with controller is achieved through RS485 bus which can utilize free topology (e.g. three, star and combination of them) and any type of signal cables. The maximal distance between controller and reader is limited to 1200 m of cable run. Configuration of the reader as well as firmware upgrade is made through RS485 and require RogerVDM (Windows) program. Because of its narrow shape the MCT12M can be installed on door frame and other door construction elements with limited space.
