Introduction
8 AYC-W6500 Installation and Programming Manual
1. Introduction
The AYC-W6500 is a fingerprint, proximity & PIN convertible reader/controller,
designed for use either as a standalone unit or in conjunction with Rosslare's
BioTrax™ software system.
The unit automatically determines whether to function as a reader or as a
controller. When the AYC-W6500 unit is connected to a standard access
controller, then it functions as a reader. If the unit is connected to a Rosslare
secured intelligent power supply such as the PS-A25T, PS-C25T or PS-C25TU, it
functions as a secured controller.
When the unit operates as a reader, transmission of a Card ID or PIN ID
entered by the user takes place only after successful fingerprint verification.
When the unit operates as a controller, door output opens after a Card ID or
PIN ID is entered followed by successful fingerprint verification.
For information on how the unit functions as a reader, see Chapter 4.
For information on how the unit functions as a controller, see Chapter 5.
The AYC-W6500 can optionally work with BioTrax software. For more
information on BioTrax software see the
AS-W6500 BioTrax Software Manual .
The unit is suitable for indoor mounting, accepts up to 500 users, and allows
entry via a personal identification number (PIN) and/or by presenting a
proximity card.
PIN codes may be restricted to a single set length of 4, 5, or 6 digits.
Alternatively, the PIN codes can be a variable length of between 4 and 8 digits.

3. Installation
Installation of an RFID reader adjacent to metallic surfaces might alter the
reader’s specifications. To diminish this interference, use a plastic spacer when
mounting the reader.
The AYC-W6500 is easy to install and fits all standard US and UK gang boxes.
3.1 Mounting
Before starting, select the location to mount the unit. This location should be
at shoulder height.
To mount the unit on a surface:
1. Peel off the back of the self-adhesive mounting label template and place it
on the required mounting location.
2. Using the template as a guide, drill four holes into the surface. The
required hole size is marked on the template.
3. Drill an additional 10-mm (7/16”) hole for the cable. When installing the
unit on a metallic surface, cover the inside of the hole with a grommet or
electrical tape.
4. At the bottom of the unit’s case, remove the screws (see Figure 1).
Figure 1: AYC-W6500 Assembly and Mounting
5. Insert the unit’s cable wire into the cable hole and wire the unit as
described in Section 3.2.
6. Screw the back plate into the surface (Figure 1). Ensure the screws are the
size specified on the installation template.
The unit can also be mounted using strong epoxy glue. After application, firmly
hold the unit in place until the glue dries.

Installation
AYC-W6500 Installation and Programming Manual 13
7. Carefully re-attach the front cover of the unit.
8. Secure the front cover by using the supplied security Torx screws. A Torx
security screw tool is provided to tighten the security Torx screws.
3.2 Wiring
The unit is supplied with a 10-conductor 41-cm (16-in.) pigtail with exposed
wires coated with solder.
3.2.1 Wiring the Unit as a Reader
If you connect the unit to a standard access control unit, it automatically
functions as a reader.
To connect the unit as a reader (to a controller):
1. Select the appropriate connections according to Table 1.

Red Vin (+)
Black Ground (-)
White Communication
Green Communication
Brown Auxiliary Input

Blue RS-232 Transmit
Grey RS-232 Receive
Orange RS-232 Ground
Yellow N/A
2. Prepare the controller cable by cutting the cable jacket back 3.2 cm (1¼”)
and strip the wire 1.3 cm (½”).
3. Splice the reader’s pigtail wires to the corresponding controller wires and
cover each joint with insulating tape.
4. If the tamper output is being utilized, connect the purple wire to the
correct input on the controller.
5. Trim and cover all conductors that are not used.
•The individual wires extending from the reader are color-coded according
to the required Wiegand standard.
•When using a separate power supply for the reader, this supply and the
controller’s power supply must have a common ground. A linear power
supply is recommended.
•Attach the cable shield wir
e on the reader to an earth ground (best), or to a
signal ground connection at the panel or power supply end of the cable.
This configuration is best for shielding the reader cable from external
interference.

4. Reader Functionality
The AYC-W6500 series can function both as a reader and as a controller.
When the unit is connected to a standard access controller, it functions as a
reader. When the unit is reset and is operating as a reader, it generates one
beep. The keypad can be programmed to output four different data formats.
The AYC-W6500 has two LEDs: the red LED indicates the status of the unit
and the green LED indicates the status of the fingerprint reader.
This chapter explains how the AYC-W6500 functions as a reader.
4.1 Modes of Operation
The AYC-W6500 has two modes of reader operation:
Normal mode
Secure mode
4.1.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode, the Status LED is red.
Normal mode is the default mode. In Normal mode, the door is locked until a
PIN code or card and the user’s finger is presented to the unit.
To use the unit in Normal mode:
1. Present your proximity card or enter the PIN code.
The Fingerprint LED flashes green.
2. Place your finger on the sensor for verification.
If your fingerprint details are not found in the unit, the
Fingerprint Reader LED flashes orange.
4.1.2 Secure Mode
In Secure mode, the Status LED flashes red.
