Host interface overview
Here's an overview of the host interfaces that BALTECH readers support. For certain host interfaces, we offer several protocol options. For more details, please see our overview of host interfaces & protocols.
On request, we can also implement customer-specific protocols. Please get in touch for an offer.
Host interface | ACCESS200 | ID-engine Z | ID-engine XE |
---|---|---|---|
USB1 | Not supported by potted versions |
||
RS-232/UART | On request | Optional | |
Magstripe emulation | On request | On request; only available for hardware variants with CMOS (0/5 V) |
|
RS-485 (OSDP) |
|||
Wiegand | only available for hardware variants with CMOS (0/5 V)2 |
||
Ethernet |
- On readers with USB support, USB HID is used as the maintenance interface ↩
- ID-engine Z configured for Wiegand outputs CMOS-level signals rather than actively driven signals. I/O wires to control reader LEDs and other hardware components currently not supported. Support for 1 I/O wire can be implemented on request. ↩
