Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between fingerprint and RFID card access on this controller?
A: This standalone access controller supports both biometric fingerprint scanning and 125KHz RFID (EM/ID) card reading. Fingerprint access uses your unique biometric data stored on the device (up to 200 fingerprints), while RFID card access uses proximity cards or key fobs (up to 500 cards). Both methods provide keyless entry, and users can be enrolled for either or both access types depending on your security requirements.
Q: Is this access controller suitable for outdoor installation?
A: Yes. The unit carries an IP68 waterproof rating, meaning it is fully protected against dust ingress and can withstand continuous water submersion — making it well suited for outdoor gates, building entrances, and other exposed environments. It also operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F).
Q: What does Wiegand 26 (WG26) output mean, and why does it matter?
A: Wiegand 26 (WG26) is a widely used industry-standard communication protocol for access control hardware. The WG26 output on this controller allows it to connect to most third-party access control panels, door controllers, and management systems that accept Wiegand input — making integration flexible and straightforward without proprietary lock-in.
Q: How many users can this access controller support?
A: This standalone controller supports up to 200 fingerprint users and up to 500 RFID card users, making it a practical solution for small to mid-sized facilities such as offices, warehouses, and residential properties.
Q: What power supply does this unit require?
A: The controller operates on a standard DC 12V power supply, which is commonly available and compatible with most access control power adaptors and door strike/magnetic lock setups.
