FAQ
What type of credentials does this reader support?
The ProdataKey RDRM reader uses proximity technology, which supports proximity cards, key fobs, or tags that operate within the 1.80" reading range. It does not require direct contact, making it compatible with common proximity credentials used in access control systems.
What is the operating range of this proximity reader?
This reader has an operating range of 1.80 inches (45.72 millimeters). This distance allows credentials to be read reliably without physical contact, supporting quick access while maintaining consistent performance in various mounting configurations.
What power supply does this reader require?
The reader operates on 12V DC power. This voltage is standard for many access control systems, allowing integration with typical power supplies or controllers without requiring special power adapters or converters.
Does this reader include mounting hardware?
Yes, the package includes four mounting screws for secure installation on doors, frames, or walls. These screws provide the necessary hardware for attaching the reader to most surfaces without requiring additional purchases.
What interface does this reader use for connecting to access control systems?
The reader features a Wiegand interface, which is a standard protocol used by many access control panels and controllers. This compatibility ensures straightforward integration with existing systems and simplifies wiring during installation.
Is this reader environmentally compliant?
Yes, the ProdataKey RDRM reader is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant. This certification means it meets environmental standards by restricting specific hazardous materials, making it suitable for use in facilities with environmental requirements.
What connectivity or interface options are available?
