BioSync Fingerprint Readers

EP Controller Notes
lBioSync fingerprint readers have two LED lines but the EP controllers only have one
LED pin-out. This is overcome by wiring the red LED wire into the buzzer pin-out
(pin 4) and in Doors.NET you have to set the BioSync reader as being a Dual LED
reader type.
- In Doors.NET go to Setup >> Hardware Setup >> All.
- Locate and highlight the reader in the hardware tree.
- Ensure Advanced View is enabled for the reader properties.
- Locate LED/Buzzer.
- Set the reader for Separate Red and Green, No Buzzer.
This will set the controller to use the buzzer for controlling the second LED line.
lWhen using B100 readers with EP controllers you have to use custom LED Modes to
define the LED behavior for the various reader modes (access granted, access
denied, locked, unlocked, lockdown, etc). Setting up and using Custom LED Modes
is covered in a separate section and available as a standalone document (part # -
02315-001).
4.4 General Wiring Notes
lThe shield wire connects with the black (Ground) wire at the controller. At the
reader side they are kept separate to prevent a ground loop.
lThe B100-PR readers can be connected to virtually any controller that conforms to
Wiegand format standards (standard 26-bit or a custom Wiegand format).
lThe maximum reader cable run distance for the B100 readers is 500 feet/150m.
