The model PRX-1 is a 125KHz proximity card
reader and is designed to be mounted directly to a
metal door or window frame (mullions), making it
ideal for applications requiring an access creden-
tial. The proximity card reader transmits data in 26-
Bit Wiegand format, making it compatible with any
of the Wiegand equipped Viking entry controllers.
The PRX-1 delivers non-contact read ranges up to
6 inches (152 mm), and operates from 5 to 14
VDC. Mounting is simplified with horizontal and
vertical mounting slots, which allow the reader to
be conveniently adjusted and leveled. Concealing
the mounting hardware, the PRX-1 ships with both
Black and Ash (Off-White) covers standard.
The PRX-1 is equipped with Enhanced Weather
Protection (EWP) for outdoor installations where
the unit is exposed to precipitation or condensa-
tion. The PRX-1 features sealed connections, as
well as an epoxy potted circuit board. For more in-
formation, see DOD 859.
