Introduction

The Model 24W
Keyboard
Wedge is a read­only device that
rapidly and
accurately
captures a
badge
identification
(BID) number
from either an
ISO14443A or

Model 24 W ISO-15693 Keyboard Wedge

ISO15693
physical security
credential.

The captured BID is sent to one of four GE-Interlogix software products:
Secure Perfect, Secure Perfect Imaging, Picture Perfect or Access Vision
Imaging, doing so as if the BID had been entered from a keyboard.

The M24W Keyboard Wedge is a data entry convenience device. It is not an
access control reader. The M24W does not communicate with microcontrollers,
or contribute to the determination of access privileges.

M24W versions

There are four version of the Model 24W Keyboard Wedge available;

o 430185001 for M24W, 110VAC, 16-digit output
o 430186001 for M24W, 230VAC, 16-digit output
o 430189001 for M24W, 110VAC, 12-digit output
o 430190001 for M24W, 230VAC, 12-digit output

Currently Secure Perfect can only support 12-digit BID numbers. ISO15693
BID’s are 16-digits long. The 12-digit output versions of the M24W Keyboard
Wedge will truncate the high-order 4 digits of an ISO15693 BID credential,
making the resulting BID compatible with Secure Perfect.

plug is keyed so as to require proper ± conductor orientation. The power cable
is permanently terminated at the AC power supply.
