GE Contactless Medium Read-Range Reader Model 260
Introduction
The GE Contactless Medium Rea d-Range Card (Model 260) is t he la tes t e vol ution
in contactless reader 13.56 MHz technology, and features universal compatibility
with all ISO 15693 and ISO 14443A badge credentials. Th e GE Model 260 reader
combines simple, cost-effective installation with the end-user convenience of
extended read range. The reader ho using is a durable gra y polycarbonate making
the reader equally well-suited for interior and exterior security locations. The
reader is easy to install on all types of conventional and metal wall surfaces,
stanchions, and pedestal-mount configurations

Product Overview
Features
• Exceptional read range of up to 14 inches (355.6 mm) for ISO 15693-
compliant credentials. (Read range will vary with credential type and
quality, as well as installation environment).
• Universal compatibility with all ISO 15693 and ISO 14443A
credentials (badges, disc tags, and key fobs).
• Supervised four-state (open, closed, wire cut, and wire short)
monitoring for door contacts and REX (request to exit) switches, and
wiring.
• Electrical prote ction (reverse polarity diode prot ection on power
lines).
• Data lines; high-speed transient voltage suppressor diodes
• Compatible with Micro/5 2RP and 8RP Reader Processo r boards,
Micro/PX-2000, and Micro/PXN-2000 controllers
• IP 65-rated sealed for deployment in both interior and exterior
environments.
• Integrated reader tamper protection and microcontroller supervised
data communications.
Access Control System Compatibility
The Model 260 badge reader outputs a 16-digit badge identification (BID)
number. As a result, the Model 260 reader is compatible with Picture
Perfect while microcontrollers on a Secure Perfect system must be fieldconfigured for Model 260 compat ibility.
Picture Perfect Edition Setup
Refer to Access/Badge Formats or to the Picture Perfect online help for
assistance. A 16-digit BID format must be defined within Picture Perfect.
Enter a suitable badge format description. Example:
and define the format:
Secure Perfect Edition Setup
The Secure Perfect Edition access control system supports Badge IDs
(BIDs) up to a maximum of 12-digits. Since a Model 260 reader will
output a 16-digit BID number, the Secure Perfect microcontrollers mus t
be specifically configured to receive the incoming 16-digit BID number,
and convert it into the Secure Perfect-compatible 12-digit BID format.

%16S.
16-digit BID
To make a Secure Perfect 4.0 or higher system compatible with the GE
Contactless Medium Read-Range Readers, do the following:
• Install Secure Perfect Edition, 4.0 or higher
•Load the Secure Perfect Update CD in the server CD drive
• Locate the Badge Formats folder
• In the Badge Formats folder, locate the 15693.REG file
• Double-click the 15693.REG to configure the Secure Perfect Edition
system and microcontrollers for operation with GE C ontactless
Medium Read-Range Readers
Note: For earlier versions of Secure Perfect Editions, please contact CASI
Sales Engineering for the 15693.REG file.
This file configures the Secure Perfect Edition’s system to communicate
with the GE Contactless readers. To restore Secure Perfect Edition’s
system back to factory settings, install the BADGE FORMATS.REG file.

Mounting Considerations
FOR PROTECTION AGAINST ENVIRONMENTAL INTERFERENCE
Model 260 readers require care and consideration in the manner in which
they are mounted. This includes consideration of the other equipment
and structural elements that are mounted near the reade r, whether visible
or hidden. The following covers the major factors to consider.
Environmental Interference
There are three types of environmental interference:
1. Electrical Noise (field wiring related)
2. Field Blocking (conductive material in read field)
3. Overlapping Fields (side-to-side & back-to-back installation)

The reader may encounter a wide range of interference as shown in
Figure 3, “GE Model 260 Reader Environmental Considerations,” on
page 5. Common causes include:
Power Wiring
Power wiring carries electrical noise that can interfere with the operation
of the reader. This is more common with traditional 125 KHz proximity
readers. However, this is a potential issue with the GE Model 260 reader,
particularly if data noise is introduced by coup ling from the reader’s
power wiring. Any power wire may inductively or capacitively couple
noise into the reader data line.
Data Network Wiring
Data network wiring can generate noise, which may possibly be in the
operating frequency range of the reader. This noise can interfere with
reader-to-credential communication and reduce read range.
Security Wiring
While not normally a source of noise itself (al though it can cause
problems if bundled in a loop directly behind the reader), security wiring
can inductively or capacitively couple to data or power wiring, and
transfer noise to the reader.
Signs and Other Metal Objects
Signs and other metal objects within the read field of the reader can
absorb or block reader-to-credential communication and reduce range.
Use shielded cable for reader communication. Reader installation
considerations should avoid read f ield blocking and overlapping
conditions.

Installation on Metal Surface
Mounting the GE Reader directly on a metal (or other electrical
conducting surface) will reduce read range to approximately 9.45 inches
(240 mm). For maximum read-range, ensure the metal wall installation
switch is set to the “< 0.75 inch” position.
Another potential source of interference is mounting two or more readers
in close proximity as shown in Figure 4.

The following problems may occur when mounting multiple GE Model
260 readers in close proximity:
• The signal energy from one reader may interfere with the read range
of the other.
• Overlapping read fields can cause a single credential to be read
simultaneously by two or more readers.
