Card Diagnostics - LED Wiegand Bit Counters

CA & EC control boards have LED Wiegand bit counters – 10s and 1s – to determine card binary bits. You must
be able to observe the control board to do this procedure. To verify the binary bits, present the card or tag at
the reader and count the number of times each LED blinks.
 10s count the 1 st
 1s count the 2 nd binary digit
Example
If the 10s LED blinks 3 times and the 1s LED blinks 6 times, the card has 36 binary bits (36-bit Wiegand
card).
