WIEGAND/MAGSTRIPE
The Wiegand/Magstripe communication output defines the format of the
Wiegand/Magstripe message that is transmitted upon identification.
Note that if the credential is already programmed in the Wiegand or Magstripe
format these settings are not used. The Wiegand/Magstripe output settings are only
used for ID-numbers that are not programmed in the Wiegand or Magstripe format.
The OSDP firmware does not output any Wiegand or Magstripe messages!!!
Unconfigured
Select unconfigured if the ID-numbers are already programmed in the Wiegand or
Magstripe format or if the Wiegand/Magstripe interface is not used.
Wiegand
Select Wiegand to manually configure the Wiegand message output format.
Wiegand output message format:
<P1><prefix><id-src><facility-code><id-number><suffix><P2>
Parity
Enable add parity bits to add a leading and trailing parity bit to the Wiegand
message. The leading parity bit (P1) is even calculated on the first half of the data
bits. The trailing parity bit (P2) is odd calculated on the second half of the data bits.
If the number of data bits used in the parity calculation is odd, then the center bit is
used in both parity bit calculations.
Prefix
Constant prefix value. Max. 65,535 (16 bits).
ID-source
If enabled, the ID-source will be sent as an 8 bit code that identifies how the ID-
number was read. The ID-source values can be changed. See chapter 4.3.1.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The following safety precautions should be observed during normal use, service and repair:
The MACE Smart reader may only be installed and serviced by qualified service personnel.
Disconnect the power supply before (dis)connecting any wires, MACE is NOT hot-
swappable, so when making or changing connections, power must be switched OFF.
The cable shield shall be connected with safety ground and the metal case of the external
device(s).
To be sure of safety, do not modify or add anything to the MACE Smart reader other than
mentioned in this installation guide or indicated by NEDAP N.V.
CONFIGURATION
The MACE Smart reader can be configured easily using the MaceConfigTool software. This
software tool can be downloaded from our partner portal https://portal.nedapidentification.com.
Configuration allows to change general settings, reader settings (what to read and how) and
communication output settings. It also allows updating or changing the firmware (e.g. STANDARD
and OSDP). When your computer does not have an RS485 output, an RS485-USB converter can be
used to connect with the MACE Smart reader.
Some settings require expert knowledge. Leave settings unchanged, when their specific meaning
is unclear. Besides, it is always a good practice to save the configuration into a file for future
reference or when requesting technical assistance from Nedap or its business partners.
