2.5 Card Code Programming
In the following programming sequence, the term “card code” is also used to reference any 26-bit
weigand device code that is being used with the 1520 controller. For example, digital entry codes or
RF transmitter codes are also referred to as “card codes.” Card codes are always five-digits in
length. Valid codes are 00000 – 65405. Card codes can be programmed as a block of sequential
codes or can be entered individually. When programming a single card code, the beginning and
ending card codes are the same.
When entering a block of card codes, the 1520 will “beep” every few seconds while the card codes
are being programmed. When programming is complete, the system will emit a long beep. The 1520
will take about 1 minute to program 200 card codes. If different time zones will be assigned to
different blocks of cards, then these blocks will need to be programmed separately so that the correct
time zones are applied. For example, if cards 01000 through 01010 are to be assigned time zone 1
(always admit), and cards 01011 through 01100 are assigned time zone 2, then these blocks have to
be entered individually.
Each card code can be assigned two time zones. If using a single time zone, enter the time zone
number twice in the two-digit time zone field. For example, if using time zone 1 (always admit), enter
11 in step 4.
If you enter time zones that conflict with each other, the system evaluates each time zone individually
starting with the first one. For example, if 01 is entered in step 4, time zone 0 tells the unit to never
allow entry while time zone 1 tells the system to always allow entry. In this case, the system will look
at time zone 0, deny access and then will look at time zone 1. Access will then be granted.
2.5.1 Programming Single Card Code
1. Press *17 and enter the four-digit master code (short beep).
2. Enter the five-digit card number _ _ _ _ _ and then press * (short beep).
3. Enter the five-digit card number again _ _ _ _ _ and then press * (short beep).
4. Enter the two-digit time zone number _ _ associated with this card, then press * (short
beep, followed by a long beep – programming ends).
5. To enter additional card codes, start again at step 1.
2.5.2 Programming a Block of Card Codes
1. Press *17 and enter the four-digit master code (short beep).
2. Enter the five-digit beginning card number _ _ _ _ _ and then press * (short beep).
3. Enter the five-digit ending card number _ _ _ _ _ and then press * (short beep).
4. Enter the two-digit time zone number _ _ associated with these cards, then press * (short
beep).
5. The system will emit a short beep every few seconds while programming the card codes.
When the short beeps stop, wait approximately 20 seconds for a long beep, which
indicates that the programming is complete.
