3.1 Wiegand Front End Mode Description
In Wiegand Front End Mode (also known as “WFE” mode), the prox.pad unit is used as a front end for a Wiegand Access control
panel. The prox.pad operates as “code only” or “card only”, in Wiegand Front End Mode. Refer to the instruction manual with your
Wiegand panel for more information.
In Wiegand Front End Mode, the Wiegand access control panel makes all the access control decisions, controls the locking device,
controls the alarm output relays and the monitors any other inputs and outputs it may have.
The prox.pad maintains its own set of programming commands for various keypad options.
3.2 Wiring the Wiegand Front End
The following section shows how to wire the prox.pad to a Wiegand control panel. If you require further information on the Wiegand
panel connections please refer to the instructions that came with the panel.
