Using HID 125 KHz Credentials

Using HID 125 KHz Credentials

An NXT reader configured to read 125 KHz will allow you to use most 125KHz HID credentials
with NXT and NXT-MSC controllers (including, but not limited to ProxCard II®, ISOProx® II, and ProxKey® II).

However, there are some important details to be aware of when using the various Wiegand formats:
  • Manually enrolling Wiegand credentials (entering the Imprint and Facility Code) is only possible when using 26-bit Wiegand credentials.
  • Presentation enrollment is the required method for all credentials other than 26-bit Wiegand and up to 63-bits when using standard NXT (64-bits if the high bit is zero). Only decoding and credential types are NXT-MSC specific.

  • For credentials that are more than 37-bit (or if you want to correctly decode the exact format of custom Wiegand credentials),  you would need to use the NXT Mercury-Powered (MSC) controller type, the Credential Types feature must be enabled on your Doors.NET license and the appropriate custom format settings will need to be defined in the Credential Types Wiegand Library.
