IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE PSR2 AND PSR16
•When used in wiegand mode the site code read from EM cards is different.
To make the Prove PSR2 read the same site code as the Presco PSR16
refer to the “Wiegand EM Card Proximity Reader Options” section and set
memory 060 to 121.
•Standard 26 & 37 bit HID cards can be read, other HID formats will read
but the output of some cards may not match that of an HID reader.

PSR2 TO PAC1 / PAC2
Programming Prox cards & tags into a PAC controller
To program a proximity card or tag into a PAC controller follow the same steps
as shown in the controller manual for programming a new user code. When it
comes to the stage to enter the user code simply present the card or tag to the
PSR2 that is connected to the same input as the programming keypad, or
alternatively enter the 9 digit code for the proximity card, note that this code may
contain star (*) and hash (#) symbols and leading zeroes (0) do need to be
entered.
PAC1 Programming Example
This example uses a PAC1 controller, programming a momentary operation
proximity card or tag into memory location 001.
1. Put the PAC1 into program mode using the management code or button on
the PAC1.
2. Using the Prove keypad connected to the PAC1, open the memory location
to store the Prox card in * 001 1 E
3. Present the proximity card or tag to the PSR2.
4. Take the PAC1 controller out of program mode.
PSR2 TO WIEGAND
To change the LED colour from red to blue apply a negative signal (0 to 2V) to
the Yellow wire or a positive signal (2.5 to 28V) to the Blue wire.
To sound the buzzer apply a negative signal (0 to 2V) to the Brown wire.
* If a fused output for readers is not provided use a 200mA inline fuse to protect
the power supply from short circuiting if PSC2 wires are tampered with.
PSR2 OPTIONS
There are several options that can be set to alter the way in which the PSR2
behaves. These options fall into the 3 categories of General, Presco and
Wiegand EM Card Proximity Reader, all of these are explained below.
General Options
These options set the functionality of the PSR2 independent of whether it is in
wiegand or Presco mode.
Memory
Function
Default
005
Force Presco or wiegand mode (1)
255
200
Red LED brightness factor (2)

201
Blue LED brightness factor (2)
10
(1) - Force Presco or wiegand mode [Memory 005]
101 = Always in Presco mode.
202 = Always in wiegand mode.
All other values = Mode auto detected using white wire.
(2) - LED brightness factor [Memories 200 & 201]
The red & blue LEDs can have their brightness individually set
1 = LEDs are at lowest brightness.
20 =LEDs are at full brightness.

Revision 2
Presco Options
These options set how the PSR2 operates when in Presco mode. It is unlikely
that these options will need to be changed.
Memory
Function
Default
011
Process received DTA characters (3)
255
012
Presco proximity reader output format (standard PAC format or
KC compatible) (4)
255
(3) - Process received DTA characters [Memory 011]
101 = Ignore all received DTA characters (PSR2 will not give beeps, warble, etc.
after card is presented).
All other values = PSR2 will make beeps, warble, etc. for DTA characters
received reading a card.
(4) - Presco proximity reader output format (standard PAC format or KC
compatible) [Memory 012]
101 = Presco output from the proximity reader is 7 digit KC compatible as per a
PIM wiegand to Presco conversion (only works for 26 bit wiegand cards).
202 = Presco output from the proximity reader is 7 digit KC compatible using the
lowest 7 digits of the 9 digit Presco PAC code.
All other values = Presco output from RFID is standard 9 digit PAC format.
Wiegand EM Card Proximity Reader Options
These options set the format of the wiegand data sent by the PSR2 when it is in
wiegand mode and an EM RFID card or tag is being read.
Memory
Function
Default
060

25
(5) - 26 bit wiegand EM card site code byte to use [Memory 060]
121 = Presco reader site code byte used.
202 = Alternate site code byte 2 used.
All other values = Generic EM reader compatible site code byte used.
(6) - EM card custom wiegand format [Memory 061]
101 = 34 bit wiegand (16 bit site code, 16 bit user code, even start & odd end
parity bits for 16 data bits each) using Presco data.
121 = 34 bit wiegand as above using alternate site code data bytes.
202 = Custom wiegand format as defined by memories 62 to 68.
All other values = Standard 26 bit wiegand.
(7) - Number of bits in EM card site/ user code [Memories 062 & 063]
A maximum of 40 data bits can be set as a sum of these 2 memories. If the sum
exceeds 40 then the number of site code bits will be automatically reduced.
(8) - Number of bits for parity calculation [Memories 064 & 065]
Number of bits for parity calculation (0 = no parity bit, if the value is greater than
the total number of wiegand data bits (site code + user code bits) then it will use
half the total number of bits, for an odd number of bits the end parity will use 1
more bit).
(9) - Parity polarity [Memory 066]
0 = Start parity is Even, End parity is Even.
1 = Start parity is Odd, End parity is Even.
2 = Start parity is Even, End parity is Odd (Default).
3 = Start parity is Odd, End parity is Odd.
(10) - Data start bit from EM card [Memories 067 & 068]
There are 40 bits of data in an EM card organised as D00-D03, D10-D13, D20-
D23, D30-D33, D40-D43, D50-D53, D60-D63, D70-D73, D80-D83 and D90-D93.
Bit D00 is referred to as bit 1 for this memory and bit D93 as bit 40.
Ensure that when setting the start bit that there are enough bits after the start bit
for the number of bits set for the site or user code data.
SETTING THE OPTIONS VIA A PROVE KEYPAD
To set any of the above options a Prove keypad is required to be connected to
the PSR2, as per the diagram below, and the PSR2 needs to be placed into
option setting mode, this is done by following the steps below:
1. Remove power from the PSR2.
2. Connect the PSR2 to a PSK2 (or other Prove keypad) as per the above
diagram. (If using a Prove keypad that requires external power remember to
connect the red wire to +12V DC.)
3. Connect the Orange wire to 0V.
4. Reapply power.
5. Once the LED starts to double flash blue you are in option setting mode.
6. Disconnect the Orange wire.
7. The PSR2 will remain in option setting mode for 5 minutes from the last
option setting sequence attempted.
Setting an option memory value
<3 digit Memory> <1 to 3 digit value> .
Reset all option memories to factory defaults
 whilst in option setting mode.
Exit Option Setting Mode
 or wait 5 minutes after last option setting attempt.
NOTE: Remember to disconnect the orange wire from 0V so that the PSR2 will
not start up in option setting mode after a power cycle.
Set PSR2 to read same EM card site code as PSR16
