Programming Card Security

If the system contains keypads NXG-1832-EUR or NXG-1833-EUR, the
dedicated Mifare cards can be used to authenticate and trigger user-defined
operations in system.
The card security mode is configured by the two system parameters:
•
System > Card Security Options > Secure Key Mode
•
System > Card Security Options > Secure Key [8-40 characters]
There are two available card security modes, selectable by Secure Key Mode
parameter:
•
Panel-specific key. Every panel has a unique, pre-programmed card security
key. Cards used in one system cannot be used in another system. This is a
default and recommended security mode, which provides the best security.
The second parameter ("Secure key" [8-40 characters]") is not used.
•
Manual. Card security key can be programmed by the installer in the option
Secure Key [8-40 characters]. The key must be entered as a text, 8 to 40
characters long.
This mode allows for using the same cards in two or more systems, provided
that the same card encryption key is configured to all these systems.
The security key can be changed but cannot be read-out of the configured
panel.
Notes
•
Manual mode should be used only if same cards must be used in multiple
systems. Otherwise, it is recommended to keep the default settings.
•
The Cards used in the system must be secured before use. Securing is a
process of applying the selected security mode and key to the cards. The
