Product Overview

The WDG-6112 connects a computer via USB-C to an OSDP or Wiegand credential reader. Once

the reader reads a credential, the credential data is sent to the WDG-6112. Then, data is output to

the computer as keystrokes. This can be used to interact with computer applications such as

spreadsheet or text programs.

Applications

•

Create credential databases during site takeovers

•

Use with an RFID reader to create an enrollment reader solution

•

Troubleshoot readers/credential output in the ﬁeld

WDG-6112, the status LED will ﬂash green once. Connecting Two Readers Both a Wiegand and OSDP reader can be connected to the WDG-6112 at the same time. In the event that both readers send credential data to the WDG-6112 simultaneously, the OSDP reader is prioritized.
Page 7: General Osdp Information / Capabilities
OSDP reader’s devices address. Supported OSDP Commands and Replies As an ACU, the WDG-6112 will send commands to and receive replies from the OSDP reader (PD). Because the functionality of the WDG-6112 is limited in scope compared to a full OSDP access controller, it only sends the commands and processes replies shown in Table 2 below.
Page 8: Osdp Initialization Sequence
The WDG-6112 sends the osdp_POLL command to the reader until credential data is received in the form of the osdp_RAW or osdp_KEYPAD replies. Note: The WDG-6112 uses the OSDP device address and baud rate set in the OSDP conﬁg ﬁle. By default, it uses device address 0 and 9600 baud.

Page 13: Known Issues
This section notes minor known issues with the WDG-6112 ﬁrmware version 1.04. Windows It may take 30 or more seconds for a Windows computer to recognize the WDG-6112 when it is in Conﬁguration Mode. When using a USB extension cable, the WDG-6112 can only be plugged into the cable in one orientation.
Page 14: Default Configuration / Badge Peeler Mode
WDG-6112 Manual - Default Conﬁguration / Badge Peeler Mode From the factory, the WDG-6112 units use the Badge Peeler Mode conﬁguration. Badge Peeler Mode outputs the bit length and raw data of any credential; this makes it useful for troubleshooting readers or verifying unknown credential data.
Page 15: Configuration Mode
Uploading a Conﬁguration File 1. Before powering on the WDG-6112, connect the Data 1 line to Ground. 2. Plug in the WDG-6112 to the computer. It will appear on the computer as a USB mass storage device*. 3. Drag and drop the WDG-6112 conﬁguration ﬁle onto the WDG-6112 drive. Do NOT load other ﬁles onto the WDG-6112 while in Conﬁguration Mode.

Page 17: Configuration Tool: Output Configuration
WDG-6112 Manual - Conﬁguration Tool: Output Conﬁguration The Output Conﬁguration section creates badge format templates. Expected badges are then parsed and output into the given human-readable format. Figure 8 below illustrates this section. In this section, there are six sub-sections: Badge Fields, New Badge Field, Badge Representation, Output List, Output Formats, and Create Conﬁguration.
Page 18 The Badge Field section shows a breakdown of each badge format. Badge ﬁelds allow the WDG-6112 to pick out speciﬁc pieces or data ﬁelds of a badge. For example, a standard 26-bit badge has two parity bits, one facility code ﬁeld, and one card number ﬁeld. As seen in Figure 9 below, standard 26-bit badges have two data ﬁelds.
Page 19 The Badge Representation section shows a breakdown of each selected Badge Field. Badge lengths determine which output format the WDG-6112 applies when it receives a card read. For example, when 26-bit credential data is received from the reader, if a 26-bit output format is speciﬁed by the current conﬁguration, the data will be output according to the conﬁguration.
Page 20 Then, select the “1” key from the Keys list. Next, click the “+” button under the keys list. Now, “Shift+1” will appear in the Output List, and the WDG-6112 will output the “!” character. Badge Fields - A list of all created Badge Fields will appear here, along with the “LengthDecimal”...
Page 21 Below is an example of a populated Output List. The WDG-6112 outputs the length of the credential in decimal, followed by the “=“ character, followed by the Field0 data, followed by the “|” (pipe) character, followed by the Field1 data, and ﬁnally the Enter key.
Page 22 WDG-6112 Manual - Conﬁguration Tool: Output Conﬁguration (Cont.) Create Conﬁguration The Create Conﬁguration section allows users to name, create, and download a WDG-6112 conﬁguration ﬁle. The ﬁle name is limited to 8 characters. By default, the conﬁguration ﬁle is named “wdg-conf”.
Page 23: Configuration Tool: Osdp Options
OSDP device address to match this value. Reader Speed - Deﬁnes the baud rate the WDG-6112 will use to poll the connected OSDP reader. After discovering the connected reader, the WDG-6112 sends the osdp_COMSET command to conﬁgure the reader’s baud rate to match this value.
Page 24 WDG-6112 Manual - Conﬁguration Tool: OSDP Conﬁguration (Cont.) Enable Secure Channel - When this option is checked, the WDG-6112 will only attempt to initiate a SCS with the attached OSDP reader, and will not initiate an unencrypted session. Default Secure Channel Base Key (SCBK_D) - This parameter deﬁnes SCBK_D for the WDG-6112 to use.
Page 25: Badge Peeler Mode Configuration
WDG-6112 Manual - Badge Peeler Mode Conﬁguration Badge Peeler Mode is the WDG-6112 default conﬁguration (see pg. 8). The method outlined below returns the WDG-6112 Badge Peeler Mode after using another conﬁguration. The Conﬁguration Tool allows the user to create a Badge Peeler conﬁguration using a special Badge Field and Badge Length.
Page 26 Format is created to process a speciﬁc credential format (26-bit, for example), that credential will be processed by the WDG-6112 according to the Output Format. If non-26-bit credential data is received, it will be processed according to the Badge Peeler Output Format.

35-bit credentials, and 37-bit credentials. 1. Open Conﬁguration Tool Open the WDG-6112 conﬁguration tool (see CypressIntegration.com). (File name: WDG- CONFIG_vX.X.X.html). Note: The HTML ﬁle can be downloaded for oﬄine use. When ﬁrst opened, the conﬁguration tool lists one Output Format (Output 0), which is conﬁgured for standard 26-bit credentials.

Page 29 WDG-6112 Manual - Creating a Conﬁguration (Cont.) 4. Create 32-bit Output Format Click the “Add Another” button under Output 0. This will create Output 1. The default parameters of each new Output Format are for standard 26-bit credentials, which will need to be edited in this case.
Page 30 WDG-6112 Manual - Creating a Conﬁguration (Cont.) 5. Create 35-bit Output Format Click the “Add Another” button under Output 0. This will create Output 2. The default parameters of each new Output Format are for standard 26-bit credentials, which will need to be edited in this case.
Page 31 WDG-6112 Manual - Creating a Conﬁguration (Cont.) 6. Create 37-bit Output Format Click the “Add Another” button under Output 0. This will create Output 3. The default parameters of each new Output Format are for standard 26-bit credentials, which will need to be edited in this scenario.
Page 32 The OSDP reader’s address is set by the “Reader address” ﬁeld; in this example, the OSDP address is 1. The WDG-6112 will conﬁgure the reader with the speciﬁed device address using the osdp_COMSET command when it is ﬁrst connected to the OSDP reader.
Page 33 Follow the steps listed in the Conﬁguration Mode section (see pg. 15). The goal for this example conﬁguration is to have the WDG-6112 enter the credentials into a spreadsheet. Below Table 3 demonstrates how this example conﬁguration outputs the four diﬀerent credentials.
Page 34: Calculate Number Of Fixed Characters
WDG-6112 Manual - Calculate Number of Fixed Characters How to Calculate the Number of Fixed Characters for Badge Fields Depending on the application and the range of numbers in the credentials, ﬁnding the appropriate number of ﬁxed characters for a Badge Field can seem unclear. The number of ﬁxed characters can be calculated based on the total number of bits in the Badge Field.

Page 36: Osdp Terminology
WDG-6112 Manual - OSDP Terminology This section lists and deﬁnes in general terms OSDP terminology use in this manual. Access Control Unit (ACU): Typically, the access controller, the ACU is the device on the OSDP bus that controls the PDs. The ACU only sends commands to the PDs and waits for replies.
Page 37 WDG-6112 Manual - OSDP Terminology (Cont.) osdp_CAP: ACU command to request a device capability report. osdp_PDCAP: PD reply with a device capability report. osdp_COMSET: ACU command to change a PD’s Address and/or Baud Rate. osdp_COM: PD reply to report its updated communication settings.
