PC Access Control Using Proximity Cards Available for AWID, Cansec, HID, Indala, Farpointe Data cards! Identifying users when there are so many software applications needing their individual information is challenging. If users manually enter an ID, there are errors and the cost to obtain accuracy can be excessive. Complicating matters is the number of formats in use for proximity cards. This is where the powerful yet easy-to-use configuration software comes to the rescue. The pcProx USB configuration application configures the reader’s output with various formatting options. Once configured, pcProx takes the proximity card’s identification information and sends it as keystrokes as if it were typed by the user. pcProx-USB can be programmed to parse facility and ID codes, drop parity bits, and format the data length. In addition, it can add keystrokes to the beginning, middle, or after the card data prior to sending the resultant output as keystrokes. scanned data. This is all accomplished using the configuration utility. Once configured, pcProx holds this information in its non-volitile memory. When pcProx is deployed, no software is needed. It uses standard USB drivers supplied by the operating system such as Windows and Macintosh. Kits are available to read AWID, Cansec, HID, Indala, and Farpointe Data cards. Please see the RF Ideas web site for further details. pcProx Benefits: Employees use a single badge for building access and identification Eliminates errors associated with individual identification Configuration application included with each reader Configuration mode allows user to select bits to include/exclude Support for Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP Support for Citrix, Wyse etc. Increases productivity No software required No serial port required No maintenance Other pcProx models are available for a variety of keyboard wedge devices from manufacturers such as Symbol, Percon, AMI, etc. pcProx Accessories: The Sonar Presence Detector provides users with the first software-free solution for automatically locking unattended computers.
