Config Example: Enable DualLEDMode
By default, ICT card readers operate in single LED mode (when wired in Wiegand configuration). To enable dual
LED mode you need to change the reader programming.
Dual LED mode requires the reader to be wired with both the orange and brown LED control lines connected.
1. Log in to the Protege Config App, using your app account.
2. Select your Credential Profile.
3. Add a new Reader Configuration called Dual LED Mode.
4. Tap the Add TLV dropdown and select the LED Mode option.
5. Set the LED Mode to Dual, then tap Save.
You can now apply the configuration to the required reader(s). Power cycle the reader and select and apply your
new Dual LED Mode config within two minutes of startup.
Config Example: LED Colors
The following programming example demonstrates how to create a config that changes the LED colors displayed
by card reader to indicate when a door is locked or unlocked.
1. In the Config App, navigate to the Reader Configuration page and select the appropriate Credential Profile.
2. Tap the + icon (top right) to create a new config. Give the config a Name.
3. Tap Add TLV to open the dropdown.
4. Select LED Color Setting and tap OK.
5. Tap on the Color field to display color details. Select a color by tapping or dragging on the color picker.
Alternatively, you can type a color code into the field below the color picker. Tap the arrow icons to switch
between Hex, RGB and HSL color codes.
Note that the color displayed by the reader LEDs will not perfectly match the screen of your device.
6. Tap on the Index field to enter an index number. Each index corresponds to a particular function of the card
reader. In this case, select 5, which represents the Door Unlocked function.
7. Tap Save.
8. Add another TLV with the LED Color Setting option. Select another color as required.
9. Set the Index to 11, corresponding to the Door Locked function. Tap Save.
10. Tap Save again to save the config.
You can now apply the configuration to the required reader(s). Power cycle the reader and select and apply your
new LED configurations within two minutes of startup.
