Iron logic Matrix III NET User manual
Matrix III NET network (RS-485) controller
with built-in Mifare (13,56 MHz) reader
User Manual
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Matrix III NET device is designed to read Mifare keys (cards, key fobs, etc. as per ISO 14443-
A), and to read and write protected memory sectors of Mifare 1K, 4K and Ultralight.
2. OPERATION MODES:
2.1 ACS Reader.
The device is connected to ACS (Access Control Systems) controllers via iButton (Dallas Touch
Memory), Wiegand-26 or Wiegand-34 protocols.
Mode 2.1.1. The device transmits UID (Serial Number) of all cards (keys).
Mode 2.1.2. The device transmits UID (Serial number) of only those cards (keys) that have
authorised (obtained access) to a certain sector.
Mode 2.1.3. The device transmits the code from protected memory sector of a Mifare key.
(To configure 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 modes, download and use free software from M3NConf.zip archive at
http://www.ironlogic.me
2.2 PC Reader.
The Reader is connected to a PC through a converter, via RS-485 protocol.
Mode 2.2.1. The reader reads and writes protected memory sectors of Mifare keys.
To work with the reader in this mode, use the SDK Z-2 USB MF libraries at
http://www.ironlogic.me
To configure 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 modes, and to work in 2.2.1 mode, a Z-397 converter is necessary
(http://www.ironlogic.me
The reader is connected via point-to-point RS-485 (not a network connection).

3. READER INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION.
The reader should be mounted on a flat surface so that the keys can easily touch it with no
obstruction.
To mount the reader, perform the following steps:
- Unscrew and take off the top lid;
- Mark and drill the holes of the same size as the mounting holes in the reader (Figure 2);
- Unscrew and take off the bottom lid;
- Lead the wires into the bottom lid and connect them to reader terminals, according to Figure 3
(Connection layout). The red LED indicates that the PCB has been powered.
- Put back and screw the bottom lid in place.
- Install the reader and secure it with screws.
- Put back and screw the top lid.
Note 1: Leave at least 10 cm distance between two readers. If the distance is less than 30 cm, their
working distances can be reduced.
Note 2: To ensure line distance distance as specified in this manual, use a UTP (e.g. CAT5e) cable.
- When connecting via iButton, the wires in twister pair should be connected to GND and
D0 pins.
- When connecting via Wiegand (-26/-34), two twister pairs are connected, the first to GND a nd
D0, and the second to GND and D1 pins.
- When using RS-485, one wire in a twister pair is connected to A and another to B.

4. READER OPERATION.
When the reader is ready, red LED shines to indicate that power is present.
When Mifare key is brought into reader working zone, its UID is read, and for 2.1.2 and 2.1.3
modes, authorisation is also performed and additional codes are read from key memory.
If reading is successful, the LED will momentarily turn green and a signal will sound. This will
also cause transmission of:
- in 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 modes, the UID just read, and
- in 2.1.3 mode, the code from protected memory sector
into controller, via iButton (Dallas Touch Memory), or Wiegand (-26/-34) protocols, depending on
the configuration.
To configure the device, use the free software from M3NConf.zip archive.
The reader has internal and external LED and sound control.
Internal LED and sound control:
- The red LED is ON when there is no key in reader working zone;
- When a key enters the working zone, red LED goes OFF, green LED turns ON, and a short
beep sounds;
- While a known key is in working zone, no visual indication is present;
- For 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 modes, when an unknown key enters the working zone, red LED goes
momentarily OFF then back ON; no sound is emitted;
- While an unknown key is in the working zone, red LED is ON.
External LED and sound control:
- Comes from a controller, via external control pins (RED, GREEN, SND), or RS-485
commands;
- Turns on by a control signal applied on any of these pins.
Note: Regardless of external control signals, when a key is read, green LED will go ON and
sound will beep for 0.1 second. For 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 modes, when an unknown key is presented
into the working zone, red LED will shortly go OFF and back ON; no sound is emitted.

The symbol of crossed-throught waste bin on wheels means that the product
must be disposed of at f separate collection point. This also applies to the product
and all accessories marked with this symbol. Products labeled as such must not
be disposed of with normal household waste, but should be taken to a collection
point for recycling electrical and electronic equipment. Recycling helps to reduce
the consumption of raw materials, thus protecting the environment.
