pcProx® Enroll

Proximity card reader for personnel identification and ID card enrollment of proximity cards.

Overview

The family of pcProx proximity card readers eliminates the need for manual entry providing error-free identification. pcProx is compatible with over 300 million physical access proximity cards. This reader allows users to use their building access card for other forms of identification and security throughout their workplace. This product is available either embedded in a keyboard or the standard wedge type housing. The plug-n-play reader comes with flash memory, allowing the user to quickly configure the output to meet the user’s needs.

As a card enrollment or ID badge reader/tester, the USB model emulates a keyboard and will keystroke the card’s ID and/or site code to the cursor’s location on the screen. The reader can be configured to add keystrokes before and after the card’s data. The serial version, available in RS-232, Ethernet, or USB Virtual Com, delivers the card’s data in ASCII.

It can be used as a standalone system, or be seamlessly integrated with other software applications using the optional SDK (software developer’s kit). As an integrated reader you will find applications such as PC/LAN logon, single sign-on, card enrollment, visitor management, vending, point of sale, time/attendance, user authorization, seminar, fitness or training attendance, magnetic card emulation, and more.

Applications

• PC/LAN access control
• Application log-on
• Employee identification (multi-function printers MFP, embedded devices, PCs etc)
• Time and attendance
• Form filler to existing software applications

AIR ID Enroll

Desktop read-only reader for ID card enrollment of contactless smartcards.

Overview

The family of AIR ID Enroll contactless smart card readers eliminates the need for manual entry, providing error-free identification. AIR ID is compatible with nearly all 13.56 MHz contactless cards/tags/labels. This reader allows users to use their building access card or other 13.56 MHz tags for other forms of identification and security throughout the workplace. The plug-n-play reader comes with flash memory, allowing the user to quickly configure the output to meet the user's needs.

As a card enrollment or ID badge reader/tester, the USB model emulates a keyboard and will keystroke the card's data to the cursor's location on the screen. The reader can be configured to add keystrokes before or after the card's data. The serial version, available in RS-232, Ethernet, or USB Virtual COM, delivers the card's data in ASCII.

It can be used as a standalone system, or be seamlessly integrated with other software applications using the optional SDK (Software developer's kit). As an integrated reader, you will find applications such as PC/LAN logon, single signon, card enrollment, visitor management, point of sale, time/attendance, user authorization, seminar, fitness, training attendance, magnetic card emulations and more.

For HID's iClass cards, including Elite Key, the card's data is read and will include the card ID and/or the facility site code, while for ISO 14443/15693, LEGIC, or NXP's MIFARE cards/tags/labels, just the card's serial number data is read from the card.

Applications

• Card enrollment
• Time and attendance
• Employee authentication (multi-function printers MFP, embedded devices, PCs etc)
• PC/LAN access control
• Equipment and material checkout
• Loyalty and membership programs
• Identification in manufacturing for productivity and quality
