Rosslare AY-K6255 Installation And User Manual

AY-x6255 Family
CSN SELECT Smart Card Readers (Rev. A)
Installation and User Manual

1. Introduction

The CSN SELECT AY-x6255 is a family of multi-credential technology
contactless smart card readers for use in access control system
solutions. CSN SELECT readers have the capability to read the Card
Serial Number (CSN) from many smart card RFID Standards
implementations. The following list shows the credential technologies
for which we have confirmed compatibility:
 ISO14443A – MIFARE® Ultralight® Nano / EV1/ C, MIFARE
Classic® / Classic EV1, MIFARE Plus® S / SE / X / EV1, MIFARE
DESFire® EV1 / EV2, NFC N–TAG / Card Emulation
ISO14443B – China National ID

 ISO15693 – HID® iClass®, PicoPass, iCode, LEGIC
ISO18092 – SONY® FeliCa® (Hong Kong Octopus)

This list is continuously updated. For the latest compatibility list,
contact your sales representative.
The standard readers output the Wiegand CSN data in 26-bit format.
Other Wiegand formats are available upon request.

3. Wiring Instructions

The units are supplied with a 10-conductor 18" (46-cm) pigtail.
To connect the reader to the controller:
1. Prepare the reader cable by cutting its jacket back about 3 cm
(1¼") and strip the insulation from the wires about 1.3 cm (½").
2. Prepare the controller cable by cutting its jacket back about 3 cm
(1¼") and strip the insulation from the wires about 1.3 cm (½").
3. Splice the reader's pigtail wires to the corresponding controller
wires (see Table 1) and cover each joint with insulating tape.
4. If the tamper output is being utilized, connect the purple wire to
the correct input on the controller.
5. Trim and cover all unused conductors.
• The individual wires from the reader are color coded according the
Wiegand standard.
• When using a separate power supply for the reader, this supply and
that of the controller must have a common ground.
• The reader's cable shield wire should be preferably attached to an
earth ground, or a signal ground connection at the panel, or power
supply end of the cable.
