(e.g. in case of Mifare MifareApplicationDirectory). Access to a block with written data is to be set with the different configuration parameters of the card reader AR6181-MX. Parameters to access a personalized block: Block address (for more information please refer to chapter 10 under SL_BLOCK).
(e.g. facility code, ID number). The content of a block consists of binary values with defined bit length. For output, the Wiegand format is transferred 1:1 (Wiegand interface) or is interpretatively prepared and the binary values/contents are transferred as decimal equivalents.

Card reader configuration Reader interface The card readers AR6181-MX and AR6182-MX have to be connected via a RS485 bus interface, 2-wire, to the reader interface of the interface unit (e.g. DRI) or a door controller. For that a 4-wire, twisted pair, shielded cable is required. One pair is for the 2-wire RS485 party line and the other pair for power supply of the reader.
