IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE PSC2 AND PSC16
•
When used in wiegand mode the site code read from EM cards is different.
To make the Prove PSC2 read the same site code as the Presco PSC16
refer to the "Wiegand EM Card Proximity Reader Options" section and set
memory 060 to 121.
•
Keypad (PIN) output in wiegand mode is defaulted to 4 bit burst for
enhanced compatibility with modern wiegand panels. To make the PSC2
output bit mode wiegand refer to the "Wiegand Keypad Options" section
and set memory 032 to 232.
•
Standard 26 & 37 bit HID cards can be read, other HID formats will read
but the output of some cards may not match that of an HID reader.

Wiring Distance: PSC2 to Presco PAC controller = 1Km using unshielded
cable, 100 max. return resistance on DTA line. To achieve
distances greater than 100m the PSC2 may require a
separate local power supply depending upon the thickness of
the cable used.
PSC2 to wiegand controller, shielded cable must be used.
Wire Gauge Distance Wire Gauge Distance
22 AWG 150m (490 ft) 26 AWG
24 AWG 100m (330 ft) 28 AWG
WIRES
There are 8 wires for the PSC2, not all will be needed for each installation. The
unused wires should always be terminated and left unconnected.
Black 0V (Ground).
Red +12V D.C.
White DTA (Presco data line) or D1 (Wiegand Data 1).
Green D0 (Wiegand Data 0).
Blue Blue LED control wire, +3V to +14V active.
Yellow Blue LED control wire, 0V active.
Brown Buzzer control wire, 0V active.
Orange Connect to 0V (black wire) on power up to enter option setting mode.
Drain Shield (in wiegand mode connect to earth/ground at controller).
INSTALLATION
1. Mark the location using supplied template and drill out required holes.
2. Remove the front fascia by inserting a wide flat bladed screwdriver into the
slot at the bottom of the unit and tilting the handle away from the front.
3. Attach the PSC2 to the wall using screws in the two oval mounting holes.
PSC2 TO PAC1 / PAC2
Programming Prox cards & tags into a PAC controller
To program a proximity card or tag into a PAC controller follow the same steps
as shown in the controller manual for programming a new user code. When it
comes to the stage to enter the user code simply present the card or tag to the
PSC2, or alternatively enter the 9 digit code for the proximity card, note that this
code may contain star (*) and hash (#) symbols and leading zeroes (0) do need
to be entered.
PAC1 Programming Example
This example uses a PAC1 controller, programming a momentary operation
proximity card or tag into memory location 001.
1. Put the PAC1 into program mode using the management code or button on
the PAC1.
2. Use the keypad on the PSC2 to open the memory location to store the Prox
card in * 001 1 E
3. Present the proximity card or tag to the PSC2.
4. Take the PAC1 controller out of program mode.
USING THE PSC2 WITH WIEGAND
The PSC2 can be used with any standard wiegand and most non-standard
wiegand controllers. The site (facility) code for the keypad can be set from the
keypad itself (refer to the Wiegand Keypad Options section) and the wiegand
60m (195 ft)
data is fully configurable with up to 64 bits of data. The PSC2 also supports
40m (130 ft)
controllers that require burst mode format wiegand.
To use the PSC2 in non burst wiegand mode, press the code then  key. The
PSC2 can be set up to automatically send the code after a given number of key
presses by setting memory 007 (refer to the General Options section).
PSC2 TO WIEGAND
To change the LED colour from red to blue apply a negative signal (0 to 2V) to
the Yellow wire or a positive signal (2.5 to 28V) to the Blue wire.
To sound the buzzer apply a negative signal (0 to 2V) to the Brown wire.
* If a fused output for readers is not provided use a 200mA inline fuse to protect
the power supply from short circuiting if PSC2 wires are tampered with.
PSC2 OPTIONS
There are several options that can be set to alter the way in which the PSC2
behaves. These options fall into the 4 categories of General, Presco, Wiegand
Keypad and Wiegand EM Card Proximity Reader, all of these are explained
below.
General Options
These options set the functionality of the PSC2 independent of whether it is in
wiegand or Presco mode.
