1 Instruction for Use
Thank you for using our Honeywell VISTA CAFP100Fxx series fingerprint recognition terminal (FRT). Please read this manual carefully before using this product for a comprehensive understanding so as to avoid causing unnecessary damages to the product.
Protect the FRT from exposure to direct sunlight or strong beam as strong beam greatly affects the fingerprint collection and leads to fingerprint verification failure.
Avoid using the FRT outdoors in summer. The working temperature of CAFP100Fxx series ranges from 0–40 ° C.
The heat dissipated during longterm operation may easily lead to response slowdown and verification pass rate decrease. It is recommended to use sunshades and heat sink devices for protection of the FRTs outdoors.
We recommend you to use the FRT properly so as to achieve the optimal recognition effect and verification speed.
1. Install a CAFP100Fxx FRT and then enroll your fingerprint for comparison

2 Basic Concepts
This section introduces the definitions and descriptions of the following basic concepts:
Ø User enrollment
Ø User verification
Ø Match threshold
Ø User ID
Ø Authority class
The most important two functions supported by CAFP100Fxx series are user enrollment and verification.
2.1 User Enrollment
A user can enroll up to 10 different fingerprints using one ID number to have multiple verification selections.
Theoretically all the fingers of a user need to be enrolled so that the user can still perform fingerprint matching even if one or more of his/her fingers get cut or damaged. Generally it is recommended that a user shall enroll at least two fingerprints, for example, the index fingers of both hands, so that the user can use any of the enrolled fingerprints for recognition even if he/she forgets which fingerprint has been enrolled.
2.2 User Verification
When a user enters a password after placing his/her finger on the fingerprint reader, or scans his/her fingerprint after entering an ID number, the CAFP100Fxx FRT compares the newly scanned fingerprint with a fingerprint stored in template. The fingerprint template is used to check the user ID. If a user enrolls his/her fingerprints on an FRT, the user can keep attendance records on this FRT through fingerprint verification which takes about 2 seconds. Upon verification, the system displays a prompt about whether the verification succeeds or not and then stores the successful matching record in the CAFP100Fxx FRT.
2.3 Match Threshold
The match threshold is set to achieve a tradeoff between the possibilities of false rejection and false acceptance. The false acceptance means the fingerprint recognition device mistakes the fingerprint of user A for that of user B, while the false rejection means the fingerprint recognition device refuses to recognize an enrolled fingerprint.
You can set a match threshold for all users. For fingerprints that fail to pass the verification, you can adopt the
"ID + Fingerprint" verification mode (that is, 1:1 match) so that the system adopts the data set in 1:1 match threshold when matching the fingerprints.
If a user’s fingers are severely worn out or damaged, lower the match threshold ( see Table 31 ).
Note : The false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR) mutually influence each other. Reducing the FAR will increase the FRR, and vice versa. The default match threshold is 35 and the default 1:1 match threshold is 15.
Table 31 lists the settings of match thresholds in different scenarios.

2.4 User ID
When enrolling fingerprints, a user will be allocated with an unused ID. When the user starts to verify his/her identity, this ID is used to associate the fingerprint feature template or password.
3
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
You can enter the ID through the mini keyboard or other storage means, for example, the RF card (the fingerprint recognition device must be configured with the RF card reader).
2.5 Authority Classes
The CAFP100Fxx series FRTs include four authority classes: l l l l
Users : refer to those who are required to verify their identity for a purpose, for example, opening the door through the CAFP100Fxx FRT or keeping their entry/exit records.
Registrars : refer to the users who are granted the right to enroll or delete users.
Administrators : refer to the users who are granted the right to perform all operations except performing advanced settings and enrolling administrators and super administrators.
Super administrators : refer to users who have access to all system functions and modify all system settings.
Note: When the super administrators are not enrolled, the registrars can enroll the administrators and super administrators. Similarly, the administrators can enroll super administrators in the absence of super administrators. Once super administrators are enrolled, administrators of lower class cannot enroll those of higher class.
2.6 Main Interface
The first interface displayed on the screen upon equipment poweron is referred to as the "Initial Interface", as shown in the following figure.
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
3 Enrollment and Verification
This chapter introduces how to enroll users on the CAFP100Fxx series. Further, it describes how to verify the validity of enrolled fingerprints.
This chapter includes the following parts:
² Enroll users
² Check enrollment effects
² Enroll spare fingerprints
² Verify identity
² Prompts for successful enrollment
Note:
To enroll a new user, you must have the authority of a registrar, administrator or super administrator. For details, see 2.5 Authority Classes.
3.1 Enroll a User
If no administrator has been enrolled, any user has the right to enroll a new user. If an administrator has already been enrolled, you can only enroll a new user after passing the administrator verification.
The RFT supports the following three enrollment modes that respectively apply to the general public with three different types of fingerprint quality: l l l
Fingerprint enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to the majority of the general public with good quality fingerprints.
Fingerprint + Password enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to a small portion of the general public who can enroll their fingerprints successfully but have difficulty in fingerprint verification due to their poor fingerprint quality.
Password enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to about one percent (the actual number may vary slightly) of the general public who are unable to enroll their fingerprints successfully.
If an administrator has already been enrolled, you need to verify the administrator identity by pressing MENU .
The system then prompts you to swipe your finger or enter a password for administrator verification.
Note : If no administrator has been enrolled, administrator verification is not required.

Note:
The ID card verification is an optional function. To customize an IDcardcapable FRT, please consult our commercial representatives or presale technical support engineers.
3.2 Check Enrollment Effect
After enrolling a fingerprint, you need to verify its validity by placing your corresponding finger properly on the initial interface of the FRT. If the FRT recognizes your fingerprint successfully, it proves that your fingerprint is clear and recognizable; otherwise, you need to reenroll your fingerprint or change another finger for enrollment. If it still does not work, it proves that your fingerprints are not suitable for recognition and you need to adopt the fingerprint and password verification mode.
3.3 Verification Modes
3.3.1 Fingerprint Verification
You can adopt 1:1 and 1:N matching modes for fingerprint identification.
(1) 1:1 fingerprint matching (ID + fingerprint)
In the 1:1 fingerprint matching mode, the FRT compares the current fingerprint collected through the fingerprint reader with that in relation to the user ID entered through keyboard.
Operation steps:
Enter a user ID through keyboard on the initial interface.
1:1 FP Match
PIN: 00011
ESC(Exit) OK (Y)
Note : The FRT displays 5digit numbers, and automatically adds 0 as prefix to the numbers less than 5 digits.
For example, if you input "11", the FRT will display "00011".
Press OK and then place your finger on the fingerprint reader, or directly place your finger on the fingerprint reader to display the following interface:
1:1 FP Match

3.3.3 Verification Through Card Read
ê
If you have your ID card number enrolled in the system, you can pass the verification by read your ID card at the corresponding area in a proper way.
3.4 Prompts for Successful Enrollment
A high fingerprint enrollment quality assures quick verification speed, while a poor fingerprint enrollment quality may easily lead to false rejection and slow verification.
To enhance the quality of enrolled fingerprints, refer to Table 41
Common Causes of Enrollment Failure or Poor Fingerprint Quality
Finger is too dry or dirty
Rub your fingers against your palm because rubbing yields oil.
Moisturize your finger by breathing on it.
Apply pressure lightly and evenly during the capturing process. Apply insufficient pressure
Select fingers for enrollment
Left and right index fingers or middle fingers are recommended.
Select the fingers without wornout or damaged fingerprints.
Users usually select their index fingers, but if their index fingers do not have high fingerprint quality, they can select their middle fingers or ring fingers.
For users with small fingers, they can opt for their thumbs. To enroll spare fingerprints, users can select fingers not prone to wearout or damage, for example, the ring fingers.
Finger placement Press your finger flatly on the fingerprint sensor and be sure that the pad (not the tip) covers as much of the sensor window as possible. Do not press your finger perpendicular to the fingerprint sensor; do not knock your finger on the sensor quickly; keep your finger still.
11
Impact of the fingerprint image change
Other causes
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
The change of fingerprint image due to skin peelingoff or injury will affect the verification performance.
If the fingerprint quality of a user is poor due to the skin peelingoff and the user cannot pass the verification one week later, the user needs to reenroll his/her fingerprint or adopt the password verification mode.
There may be a small amount of people who cannot pass the verification no matter how hard they try due to very poor fingerprint quality. In that case, you can adopt the ID + fingerprint verification mode, duly lower the 1: 1 match threshold or adopt the password verification mode.
3.5 Administrator Enrollment

4.5.1 Access Control Function Description
The access control setting items include the user’s access time segments and access combinations.
The setting items for each user include: The group that the user belongs to, and the available access time segments for group and user. User grouping means the allocation of a user to a certain group, for example,
Group 1 or Group 2. A group or user can be set with three preset access time segments at most, and these time segments have an "OR" relation with one another (that is, unlocking is available for a group/user at any one of these time segments). For details on the relationship between the use of group TSs and the user TPs, see
4.5.3.3 User Access Control Settings.
In a simple word, the unlocking conditions for an enrolled user are as follows:
1. The group to which the user belongs must lie in an access combination (or it can share the same access combination with other groups and unlock together with them).
2. The current unlocking time must remain within any one of valid access time segments.
Newly enrolled users are classified into Group 1 by default. The default group time segment is "1". When
Group 1 and time segment 1 both adopt factory defaults, the newly enrolled users are in Open state. (If a user modifies the access control settings, the system will also change these settings accordingly.) If the group to which a user belongs is inexistent in access combination settings, the user can only mark his/her attendance but cannot unlock.

4.5.2 Access Control Verification Flow
4.5.3Function Introduction
4.5.3.1 Define Time Segments
Time segment is the minimum time unit for access control setting. The entire system can be defined with a maximum of 50 time segments. Each time segment is divided into 7 time buckets, that is, one week. Each time bucket is the valid time segment within 24 hours every day. Every user can be set with up to 3 time segments which have an "OR" relation with one another. The verification time is deemed valid only if it remains within one of these time segments. The time bucket format is HH:MMHH:MM using a 24hour clock.
If the end time is earlier than the start time (23:57–23:56), unlock is prohibited for a whole day. If end time is later than the start time (00:00–23:59), unlock is valid within this time bucket.
Valid time segments for unlock: whole day (00:00–23:59), or the period from start to end time.
Tip : The default time segment 1 indicates the whole day access (that is, the newly enrolled users are allowed to unlock).

4.5.3.2 Define Grouping Functions
By using the grouping functions, you can divide users into different groups and combine diverse groups to form different access combinations, so as to facilitate access control management. The system defines 5 groups: Group 1, Group 2, Group 3, Group 4 and Group 5. Newly enrolled users belong to Group 1 by default, but they can also be reassigned to other groups.
Group TS : This parameter is used to set the unlocking time of groups. In Group TS , select a set TP No.
The newly enrolled user adopts the time segment of Group 1 by default, but after resetting the group that he/she belongs to, the user will use the related time segment of the new group. Therefore, the default time segment of every group shall be defined in advance.
For details on how to Use Grp TPs , see
4.5.3.3 User Access Control Settings

4.5.3.4 Definition of Unlock Combinations
The unlock combinations are defined to control the unlocking. For example, to make all enrolled users unable to unlock, leave all the ten unlock combinations BLANK.
The unlock combinations are userdefined combinations to unlock the door, and each combination consists of different groups. The unlock combinations specify the group number(s) permitted to unlock the door, leaving the user verification sequence out of account. For example, l l
"123" means the door unlocks only after at least three users respectively from Group 1, Group 2 and
Group 3 pass the verification within the specified time segment.
"4" means the door unlocks after one user of Group 4 passes the verification.
You can define a maximum of 10 unlock combinations for the FRT and the door unlocks as long as one of them passes the verification.
Tip : The default unlock combination is "1" (that is, new enrolled users can unlock the FRT by default).
On the initial interface, press Menu → Options → Access Options → Access Comb , as shown in the following figure:
Access Comb ▲
Comb 1 1
Comb 2
Comb 3
Comb 4
Comb 5
Comb 6
Comb 7
Comb 8
Comb 9
Comb 10
The default unlock combination is "1" and other unlock combinations are left blank.
To make all users unable to unlock, leave all these ten unlock combinations BLANK.
To enable unlocking for some of the groups, you need to define the unlock combinations, as shown below:
Example 1:
Access Comb ▲
Comb 1 123
Comb 2 4
Comb 3 24
Comb 4 45
Comb 5 15
Comb 6
Comb 7
Comb 8
Comb 9
Comb 10
As shown in the figure above, five unlock combinations are set in total:
Unlock combination 1: 123.
Unlock combination 2: 4.
Unlock combination 3: 24.
Unlock combination 4: 45.
Unlock combination 5: 15.
Unlock combination 1: The door unlocks only after at least three users respectively from Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 pass the verification within the specified period.
Unlock combination 2: The door unlocks as long as one user from Group 4 passes the verification.
Unlock combination 3: The door unlocks only after at least two users respectively from Group 2 and Group 4 pass the verification within the specified period.
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
Unlock combination 4: The door unlocks only after at least two users respectively from Group 4 and Group 5 pass the verification within the specified period.
Unlock combination 5: The door unlocks only after at least two users respectively from Group 1 and Group 5 pass the verification within the specified period.
To sum up, the door unlocks only when users of each group in an unlock combination pass the verification within the specified period.
Note:
1. The verification will fail in any of the following cases:
² The user time segment number is not selected.
² The default group time segment number is not selected (when the group time segment is used).
² The verification does not remain within any of the userdefined time segments.
² The time segment is defined as "Disabled".
2. Users set a time segment within which the verification fails:
Œ If the conditions of unlock combination 2 are met, users of "Invalid Group" cannot unlock but are allowed to register attendance. (If there are other users meeting the unlocking condition in Group 4, then the unlock combination 2 is allowed to unlock)
• If the conditions of unlock combinations 1, 3, 4 and 5 are met, users of "Invalid Group" cannot unlock but are allowed to register attendance.
2) Example 2:
To set the vault of a bank to unlock only in the presence of three people, proceed as follows:
These three people respectively belong to Group 2, Group 4 and Group 5 and are granted the right to unlock within the same time segment. Select " Comb 1 " and press OK . Then enter "245" through the numeric pad and press ESC to exit and save the setting.

9 FAQs
Question: How do I address the problem that some employees fail to pass the fingerprint verification more often than not?
Answer: The following factors will make fingerprint verification hard or even impossible for some employees:
• . The fingerprints of some fingers wear out.
‚ . The fingers have too many wrinkles which change frequently.
ƒ The skin on the fingers peels off badly.
For users whose fingerprints are beyond recognition, they can delete these fingerprints and enroll them again or enroll a fingerprint of another finger.
It is recommended to select fingers with good fingerprint quality (few wrinkles, no peelingoff and distinct fingerprint) for fingerprint enrollment. Press the finger flatly on the fingerprint sensor and be sure that the pad
(not the tip) covers as much of the sensor window as possible. Perform fingerprint match test after finishing enrollment. It is recommended to enroll the fingerprints of several fingers as backup.
Furthermore, the FRT provides the 1:1 matching and password verification functions especially for users who have difficulty in or cannot pass fingerprint verification.
Question: What are the possible causes of FRT communication failure?
Answer: The possible causes are listed as follows:
• The setting of communication port is incorrect. The port set for communication is not the COM port actually used.
‚ The setting of the communication port baud rate of the PC is not consistent with that of the FRT.

Question: Why is there a beep sound during the communication between FRT and PC?
Answer:
• If the beep sound occurs in RS232 communication mode, the baud rate settings of the PC and FRT are inconsistent.
‚ If the beep sound occurs in RS485 communication mode, it is possible that the two communication cables of the converter are inversely connected or stuck together.
Question: Why does the FRT constantly display "Please press (remove) your finger again"? How to fix it?
Answer: The possible causes are as follows:
• There is dirt, grease or scratch on the surface of the fingerprint sensor, which may lead the fingerprint sensor to mistakenly think there is a finger pressing on the surface. Remove the dirt or grease on the surface of the fingerprint sensor with an adhesive tape.

‚ The connection cable of fingerprint sensor comes loose or disconnected.
ƒ The chip of the main board is faulty.
For the last two cases, contact the supplier and return the FRT for maintenance.
Question: Why does a failure or error occurs when I read the attendance data while I can download fingerprint and password data properly? How to fix it?
Answer: This problem may relate to the data cable, converter or the COM port setting of the PC. You may try decreasing the baud rate of the PC and FRT, for example, set it to 19200 or 9600 before reading the attendance data again.

10 Appendix
The functions described in Appendix are all optional. If you need FRTs that support these functions, please consult our commercial representatives or presales technical support engineers.
10.1 USB
USB Host
The FRT is used as the USB Host to externally connect with a USB pen drive for data exchange.
The conventional fingerprint readers transfer data only through the RS232, RS485 or Ethernet. Bulk data transfer may take a long time due to the restriction of physical conditions. The USB far outperforms any other previous transfer modes in terms of data transfer rate. Insert the USB pen drive to the USB slot on the FRT, download data to the USB pen drive, and then connect the USB pen drive to a computer to import the data to the computer. Further, the FRT also supports the exchange of user information and fingerprint data between two devices, which helps dispense with the hassle of conventional cable connection for data transfer between the FRT and computers.
For the operations of the FRT used as the USB host, see 5.USB Pen Drive
10.2 Short Message
FRTs of some models support the transfer of public and private short messages at the specified time and for a specified individual. You can edit public or short messages through the background software and then upload them to the FRT. The public short messages are displayed on the screen all the time once the FRT is started, while private short messages are displayed upon the fingerprint verification. This function helps reduce the workload for the HR department and greatly enhance working efficiency.
A short message for an individual: For example, if an employee's birthday is October 20 th
, then you can edit a short message "Happy birthday to you!" through the background software, upload the short message to the
FRT, and set it to be displayed on October 20 th
. This message will be displayed on the screen once this employee verifies his/her fingerprint.
A short message for a group of employees: for example, for a plenary meeting scheduled to be held on June
19 th
, you can edit a short message "Please attend the plenary meeting at ×× in the ×× meeting room" (you can edit it as required) through the background software and upload it to the FRT. Then on June 19 th
, this short message will be displayed all the time on the screen once the FRT is started.
Setting of short messages: After setting the short message in the attendance software, upload it to the FRT.
The FRT supports the import of short messages in two modes: l l
Direct import by connecting the software to the FRT.
Import from a USB pen drive.

10.4 Masterslave function
ê
Two devices, a master and a slave, both controlling the same lock, are connected by RS232/RS485/Wiegand.
1. The Applications of the Master and the Slave
1) Record storage:
By default, the master status is exit and the slave status is entry. The records of entry and exit are both saved on the master.
2) AntiPassback function:
Whether to perform the antipassback function is determined by the latest record of the user's entry and exit.
With this function, the exit record must match the entry record. The function supports "Out", "In", "In Out",
"None and save " or "None". antipassback. By default, the identification status of the master is exit and that of the slave is entry, so if " out antipassback " has been set and when the last record of the user's entry is not
"entry", the system will prompt antipassback refusal" and refuse to open the door if the user wants to exit.
The logic is the same with "out antipassback" and " in out antipassback".
For example, now A wants to exit.
① If the last record for A is not entry, the device will prompt antipassback refusal and refuse to open the door.
② If the last record for A is entry, after the fingerprint identification is passed, the device will open the door.
3) Alarm function
If the slave is equipped with alarm function, when an alarm incident occurs, the slave will forward it for the master to process. There is no such function on device that is not equipped with alarm function.
2. The Connection of the Master and the Slave
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
Currently, three modesRS232, Wiegand and RS485 are applicable for the connection of the master and the slave. Of the three, RS232 is less often used due to its deficiency that its connection distance is short. For example, it can be used when the master and the slave are just installed respectively inside and outside a door. Its connection principle is similar to that of RS485, which is omitted here. The Wiegand connection is widely used, most of whose devices on the market are applicable to the master and the slave. RS485, whose transmission distance is great (however it is recommended that the distance should not be over 600 meters), applies to most occasions, but the slave must be equipped with the inBIO reader (which is used for collecting fingerprint or swiping card).
If Wiegand connection is to be used, the connection and setting for antipassback are as follows:
1) Select model:
Master machine : Machine with Wiegand in function.
Slave machine : Machine with Wiegand Out function.
2) Masterslave menu setting:
This machine supports out, in, outin, No, No and saved antipass back (enter Menu > setting > system setting > advanced setting > antipassback ).
3) Modify device’s Wiegand output format:
If the two devices are communicating, only Wiegand signals without device ID can be received. Enter device
Menu > Comm. Opt > Wiegand option or enter software: Basic setting > device management > Wiegand, to modify "defined format" as "wiegand26 without device ID".
4)Enroll user:
The user must be on master machine and slave machine at the same time, and user PIN must be the same.
Therefore, it is necessary to enroll user on master machine and slave machine at the same time.
5) Connection instruction:
Wiegand communication is adopted for master machine and slave machine. Refer to the following for connection:
Master Slave
IND0 <> WD0
IND1 <> WD1
GND <> GND
If RS485 connection is to be used, the connection and setting for antipassback are as follows:
The mode of RS485 is a new application in the connection of the master and the slave. In this mode, user information, fingerprint verification, card verification and authority verification are all processed on the master and the slave is only used as a collector. Therefore, the software only needs to manage user information and record information on the master.
1) Choosing devices:
The master: It must have the 485 communication function (upgrade firmware required).
The slave: It must use the inBIO readers.
2) Setting the menu on the master:
Setting the master:
① Access Menu>Settings>System Settings>Advanced Settings>Anti passback. The setting can be "Out",
"In", "In Out", "None and save " or "None".
② Access Menu>Settings> Access Options>485 reader. If "Yes" is chosen, the master and slave function of
485 mode is started and at the same time the communication function with PC is forbidden. If "No" is chosen, the machine runs normally the communication function of PC.
Setting the slave:
Set the device number, identical to the master.
3) Connecting the master and the slave
The master and the slave are for RS485 communication, whose connection is shown as in the figure:
39
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
Master Slave
485+ <> 485+
485 <> 485
GND <> GND
3. The Use of the Master and the Slave
After the devices are started, the master works the same as common access control. The slave cannot verify.
When a fingerprint is pressed or a card is swiped on the slave, the indicator will blink and "click, click" will sound to prompt and the verification result will be displayed on the master.
10.5 Wiegand Protocol
Wiegand26 is an access control standard protocol established by the Access Control Standard Subcommittee affiliated to the Security Industry Association (SIA). It is a noncontact IC card reader interface and output protocol.
Wiegand26 defines the interface between the card reader and controller used in the access control, security and other related industrial fields. Wiegand26 helps standardize the work of the card reader designers and controller manufacturers. The FRT is also designed in compliance with Wiegand26.
Digital Signals
Figure 1 is a sequence diagram in which the card reader sends digital signals in bit format to the access controller. In this sequence diagram, Wiegand follows the SIA’s access control standard protocol for the 26bit
Wiegand card reader (one pulse time ranges between 20us and 100us, and the pulse jump time ranges between 200us and 20ms). Data1 and Data0 are high level (larger than Voh) signals till the card reader prepares to send a data stream. The asynchronous lowlevel pulse (smaller than Vol) generated by the card reader is sent to the access control panel (The sawtooth wave as shown in Figure 1) through Data1 or Data0.
Data1 and Data0 pulses will neither overlap nor be generated synchronously. Table 1 lists the maximum and minimum pulse widths (a consecutive pulse) and pulse jump time (time between pulses) allowed by the F series fingerprint access control terminal.

Wiegand Format
The Wiegand format adopted by the FRT is the universal access control protocol.
26Bit Wiegand Format
The composition of the open de facto 26 Bit Weigand industry standard contains 8 bits for the facility code and
16 bits for the ID number field. Mathematically, these 8 facility codes allows for a total of just 256 (0 to 255) facility codes, while the 16 ID number bits allow for a total of only 65,536 (0 to 65,536) individual ID's within each facility code.
26Bit Wiegand format is of 26 bits in length, including 2 bits for parity bits.

Purpose
Even Parity bit (EP) is judged based on field 1 to 13 bit. EP is 1 if the number of "1" is even; otherwise, EP is 0.
Facility Code (0255)
Bit 2 is the Most Significant Bit (MSB).
Card Code (065 535). Bit10 is the MSB.
The value of Odd Parity bit is determined by 14–26 bit. OP is 1 if the number of "1" is even; otherwise, OP is 0.
Pyramid Wiegand format
Several alternatives exist for customers who require more codes. The first is to switch to Keri’s standard 39 bit
Pyramid format. This 39 bit Wiegand format contains 17 bits for the facility code field and 20 bits for the ID number field. Mathematically these 17 facility code bits allow for a total of 131,072 (0 to 131,071) facility codes, while the 20 ID number bits allow for a total of 1,048,576 (0 to 1,048,575) individual ID’s within each facility code. Since there are so many facility codes in the Pyramid format, a new facility code may be selected for each project. Additionally the large number of ID’s per facility code makes the Pyramid format ideal for very large projects. For added security, Keri Systems tracks credential coding to ensure that no duplication occurs.
Table 3 provides a summary of the Pyramid Wiegand format.

Bit Number Meaning
Bit 1
Bits 2 to 18
Even parity over bits 2 to 9
Facility code (0 to 131,071); Bit 2 is MSB
Bits 19 to 38 ID Number (0 to 1,048,575); Bit 19 is MSB
Bit 39 Odd parity over bits 20 to 38
Custom Wiegand Formats
The second alternative is to create a custom Wiegand format. Typically, up to 64 bits are available for creating a custom Wiegand format. With certain limitations, formats with greater than 64 bits may be created. If a customer currently has a custom Wiegand format from Wiegand or from other proximity manufacturers, Keri can normally match that format. Although the customer is primarily responsible for custom format card coding, as an added benefit Keri Systems tracks card coding for additional security. Table 4 provides an example of one possible custom Wiegand format.

10.6 Daylight Saving Time (Time Zone Settings)
The Daylight Saving Time (DLST) is a widely used system of adjusting the official local time forward to save energy. The uniform time adopted during the implementation of this system is known as the DLST. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour in the summer to make people early to bed and early to rise so as to make full use of illumination resources and save electricity. Clocks are adjusted backward in autumn. The specific DLST regulations vary with countries. At present, the DLST system is adopted every year by about
110 countries in the world.
41
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual
To meet the DLST requirement, the FRT supports the DLST function to adjust forward one hour at ×× (Hour):
×× (Minute) ×× (Day) ×× (Month) and backward one hour at ×× (Hour): ×× (Minute) ×× (Day) ×× (Month).
For the operations of the FRT menu settings, see 5.1.6 Daylight Saving Time.
