MATRIX III MF-I
with connection via iButton / Wiegand-26 protocols

1. OVERVIEW

Mifare tokens (cards, key fobs, bracelets etc.) and transmit them to controllers via iButton (Dallas
Touch Memory) or Wiegand protocols.
A distinctive feature of this model is the support of IronLogic Protected technology, which provides
reliable protection against card cloning (more details on www.ironlogic.me website). To use
Protected technology, in addition to a Matrix III MF-I reader, customers require: a Z-2 USB MF
reader with special firmware, an IronLogic Object Card and clean Mifare cards or key fobs to create
access cards.
