Secure Perfect 6.1.1 User Manual
Badge Formats in 40-Bit and 55-Bit Wiegand Protocol
Description
Select from two data masks.
Magnetic Stripe: The number is a mask embedded into a magnetic tape
strip and usually adhered to badges or credit cards.
Wiegand: A pulse-generating mask sensed by a pickup coil (the reader).
This is a complex system to manufacture and virtually impossible to
duplicate making it one of the most secure access control technologies.
The number is a mask of a digital 0 or 1.
Indicates the location or position of the bit where your mouse pointer is
presently positioned, in the mask combination.
Magnetic Stripe:
N = Badge or facility/site bit
B = Start character (With few exceptions, the start character is 'B' the
majority of the time.)
0 to 9, A, C, D, E. = Constant characters
= Space
Wiegand: The following characters are acceptable. Also refer to the
Legend group box:
B = Badge identification (BID) bit
F = Facility/site code bit
P = Parity bit (an extra bit added for error detection or integrity testing)
0 or 1 = Constant characters
E = Parity layout - Even
O = Parity layout - Odd
= Space
