INTRODUCTION
The Presco™ Interface Module (PIM) can be used to
convert commonly used data formats to Nidac
Presco™, RS232, Clock & Data or Wiegand format
data.
FEATURES
•
Converts from Wiegand, RS232, Nidac Presco™,
Clock & Data (Magnetic Card) or Dallas iButton™
(commonly referred to as Silicon Key) format.
•
Converts to Nidac Presco™, RS232, Clock & Data
(Magnetic Card) or Wiegand format.
•
Can convert to or from Wiegand with up to 64 bits
of data, including up to 32 bit site code plus
optional start and end parity bits.
•
User programmable site code when converting to
Wiegand.
•
Reads up to 64 bits from Dallas iButton™ user
memory or 56 bits from factory ID.
•
Reads up to 32 characters or digits from Track 1, 2
or 3 Clock & Data (magnetic card) format input.
•
User programmable settings using standard
Presco™ keypad or via RS232 link (software for
RS232 programming is available from Nidac's
website www.nidac.com).
•
Compatible with all current Nidac Presco™
encoders and decoders.

NOTE all distances are based on a supply voltage of
12.0V D.C. at the PIM.
The positive D.C. power input.
The Ground (or Negative) power input.
This is also a common reference
connection for all devices connected to
the PIM. i.e. all devices connected to the
PIM require their GNDs to be connected
together.
