Adapter - DSX-CRT LAN-Wiegand Adapter
This page describes version 2.0.3 of the adapter.
Overview
The DSX-CRT LAN-Wiegand adapter is an interface for sending secure data packets over a customers network to a DSX-CRT device where it is translated to a Wiegand card reader format. The CRT device is a gateway for other systems such as Visitor Management, Facial Recognition, Temperature and Mask Verification, Parking, or other applications to send a Card Read or Access request or even an alarm to a DSX system.
DSX-CRT LAN-Wiegand Device Web Configuration
The DSX-CRT device is configured via web interface. Please, refer to the DSX Access Systems, Inc. DSX-CRT2/4 Card Read Translator manual for detailed information.
The DSX-CRT device must be configured to use the following settings:
- Port Addressing: Message Content Based
- Network Settings: TCP or UDP Input Transport (UDP Recommended)
- Encryption: Recommended
Note
The shared key used for encryption is installed using a special serial cable and firmware application provided by DSX Access Systems, Inc. Please, refer to the DSX-CRT2/4 Card Read Translator manual for detailed information
