Synel SY-10/MR Introduction Manual

General

Introduction

SY-10/xR is a magnetic, bar-code or proximity card reader
with a keyboard, and a transmitter. It pertains to the SY10
magnetic/barcode reader emulation series.
The SY-10/xR decodes the card and transmits the signal seri-
ally in RS-232 protocol (ASCII) in a range of up to 30m. The
data is transmitted only once.
When operated the unit immediately waits for host instructions
and is ready to decode a magnetic/barcode/proximity card as
per the installed reader.
This protocol enables improved management of reader, key-
board, leds - using a PC. It is based on Synel standard data col-
lection protocol. To simplify the use of fields, instead of
calculating CRC fields, they can be replaced with "@". The
commands to be implemented are:
Get DATA-The last data to be received will be sent.
Clear DATA-The buffer housing the data will be cleared.
Activate device-Operate one of the indicators (led, buzzer,
relay).
This command is used also for managing the card reader and
the keyboard.
The keyboard is managed internally. It can be used for insert-
ing the pin code or for the identification number. Each keyed-
in character is automatically transmitted to the controller as per
reader type:
• In SY-10/MR - Magnetic track II ANSI standard
• In SY-10/PR - Magnetic track I ANSI standard
These are transmitted between two ":" characters to enable the
controller to close the data source.
• In SY-10/BR - Barcode, COD39.
• In SY-10/PRX/R -Proximity 125 KHz.
It is transmitted between two'A' characters.
The unit consists of a bi-color LED controlled internally.

Format of commands and replies

These commands enable the host to receive the last transmitted
transaction and activate the various devices (LED, buzzer,
relay). Command structure for this reader is a subset of SDCP
(Synel Data Collection Protocol) (For further information see
SYNEL protocol manual). Format changes are as follows:
1. CRC communication is not checked (@@@@ or
ignored)
2. Permanent ID = 0
3. The commands are as follows:
Standard SYNEL ACK & NACK commands, and:
Command Description
Getdata Retrieves data (d) = data – will send the last data in the
B buffer
( -Op code)
(n) = no data
Cleardata Deletes data (Ack) – data will be deleted. If the PC
( C Op code) requests data again, the terminal will reply
"There is no data". Unless, new data was
just received (via the KB or reader.

The unit may be installed in any building. It can also be
mounted adjacent to any other reader of the same series PRX
or PRintX. Then the unit's slips must be fastened to the neigh-
boring unit's notches. The back panel of the unit serves as a
handy installation template for installation. Mounting screws
and plugs are also provided. Following these guidelines:
1. The installation location selected should be as far as pos-
