2 Product Description

The NREM 76 1) reader modules are designed for connection to the APS BUS of the APS

400 identification system. Up to 64 reader modules NREM 76 can be connected to a single

MCA 168 controller.

The reader modules are available in various modifications differing in the way of usage.

2.1 NREM 76 module

Reader module for general use designed for applications with

remote antenna module, see Pic.1.

The module can be installed wherever using a standard module is

inappropriate for mechanical or security reasons. Reading range is

dependent on the type of the antenna module and its frequency

tune-up; this is why it is not recommended to adjust the cable

supplied with the original antenna module.

2.2 NREM 76E module

Complete reader module designed for installation into round

installation boxes with inner diameter 68 mm. All-purpose

conception of the module’s board enables installation in the most of

electrical devices’ cover designs in blocks of flats and therefore

adjust the appearance of the reader modules to the appearance of

other devices designed by an architect (Pic.2).

The WIO 22 remote control WIEGAND relay module is designated for secure output control

of APS system reader modules. The door open or other functions can be controlled from

the module located inside the secure area, while the reader module can be located in the

non-secure area.

The module is controller by WIEGAND signal directly from the reader module working in

standard operating mode. The module must be paired with appropriate reader module

before use.

4.4 Installation instructions

The reader module uses passive RF/ID technology, which is sensitive to RF noise sources.

Noise sources are generally of two types: radiating or conducting.

Conducted noise comes into the reader via wires from the power supply or the host.

Sometimes, switching power supplies generate enough noise to cause reader malfunction,

it is recommended to use the linear system power suppliers.

Radiated noise is transmitted through the air. It can be caused e.g. by computer monitors

or other electrical equipment radiating electromagnetic field.

From this point of view a short distance between the reader modules themselves can

cause reading malfunctions – for correct function it is necessary to keep a minimum

distance 50 cm. Moreover, this distance can be negatively influenced by various metallic

constructions (if there are any doubts, it is useful to make a practical test before the final

mounting).

The nearby metal surfaces can cause the decreasing of reading distance and speed. This

is caused by the combined influence of parasitic capacitance and conductance.

5.3 Reader module parameters setting

Setting of all parameters of the reader module can be done only when the module is

connected to the system bus of MCA 168 controller. Detailed instructions for setting reader

module parameters are described in the APS 400 Network Reader configuration program

user’s guide available at: http://www.techfass.cz/files/m_aps_400_network_reader_en.pdf.

6 Reader module functioning

6.1 Operating modes

The NREM 76 reader modules are intended for online operating mode on APS 400 system

BUS (APS BUS). The activity of the modules is defined by the system controller; so the

modules are able to provide various functions not only controlling of the door.

In case of the communication line fails the modules can work in offline mode (when the

emergency function is enabled) - it concerns the exit readers mostly. The “Door Open“

function for last 750 valid cards registered before can be performed in this mode only.

6.2 Emergency “Door Open” function description

When the “Door Open“ function is activated, the door lock is released and the beeper

activated until the door is open or 5 s preset door lock release time has elapsed.

All events triggered while the offline mode is in progress are saved neither in the

controller nor in the reader memory.

6.3 Read ID media format

6.3.1 EM Marin ID media format

The EM Marin ID media format can be changed into selected 24, 32 or 40 bits length of ID

code. The default length is 40 bits. This setting is only changed when unifying of the ID

media codes length is required – in combined systems with WIEGAND output readers with

a fixed WIEGAND data format IDs (more information in APS 400 Network Reader user’s

guide available at http://www.techfass.cz/files/m_aps_400_network_reader_en.pdf).

6.3.2 HID Proximity ID media format

When working with HID Proximity technology ID media, the module operates with a code in

a recognized 26 or 32 bit format, in other cases it uses all 45 bits of a media (45bit raw

format). If a specific format of the HID Proximity IDs is required, it can be performed by

setting up the user’s configuration of read IDs (more information in APS 400 Network

Reader user’s guide at http://www.techfass.cz/files/m_aps_400_network_reader_en.pdf).

6.4 Wiegand interface configuration

6.4.1 Standard operating mode

This is the module default operating mode. The Wiegand interface is used for controlling

the WIO 22 module in this configuration. When the reader module operates in the standard

operating mode, the I/O Port (tab. 6) is used as an input for monitoring an external device

tamper status.

6.4.2 Wiegand output

The module can be configured into a standard reader with a WIEGAND output in 26, 32, 42

or 44 bits format for EM Marin technology ID media. Read IDs are formatted with the

previous setting first (see chapter 6.3.1), after that they are sent in the output format. The

HID Proximity ID media are sent in the same format as set for the standard operating

mode. When the reader module operates in the Wiegand output operating mode, the I/O

Port (tab. 6) is used as an input for monitoring an external device tamper status.

Input 2 Yellow LED control (0 V active)

Output 1 (relay) Tamper signaling; it follows the alarm state of tamper

sensors (tamper signal = relay switched on) 3)

Table 14: Signal function in WIEGAND operating mode

Since the FW version 2.79 the reading synchronization of a couple of TECHFASS readers

is implemented, enabling to cancel the mutual disturbance of the modules. The reader

module offers the Wiegand data interface synchronization in MASTER mode.

6.4.3 Wiegand input (entry reader)

The module can be configured into a mode of controlling the door from both sides (entry

reader mode).

In the entry reader mode an identification at an external reader connected via the

WIEGAND interface acquires a reason code 255; at the same time the reader module

operates standardly, the reason codes equal zero.

When the reader module operates in the entry reader operating mode, the I/O Port (tab. 6)

is used as an output for controlling the entry reader buzzer.

Since the FW version 2.79 the reading synchronization of a couple of TECHFASS readers

is implemented, enabling to cancel the mutual disturbance of the modules. The reader

module offers the Wiegand data interface synchronization in SLAVE mode.

The WIEGAND input and WIEGAND output operating modes are mutually exclusive.

6.5 Reading synchronization

Since the FW version 2.79 the reading synchronization of a couple of TECHFASS readers

is implemented, enabling to cancel the mutual disturbance of the modules. The reader

module offers to use the IO synchronization in both MASTER and SLAVE mode. The

input/output port 3 is used as the synchronization signal.
