Detailed description
Available versions
The Proxer7 Proximity RFID card reader is a desktop device designed for use in a confined space, it
has no special immunity. Accordi ngly, the ba sic version available in the two most widely used office types
of connections, with USB or RS232. In these versions, the connector is on the outside of the box, can be
connected to a personal computer with standard external data cable.
Because nowadays widespread access control using RS485 or Wiegand communication interface,
the Proxer7 is available with these versions. The Proxer7 is eligible in wall-mountable design with internal
connector for the cables are inside of the housing,
The Proxer7 is basically external input peripherals, responsible for reading the RFID transponder ID
and transmission via communication interface, similar to an external keyboard, which is used to input a
code. In normal using the success of the communication, transmission with the RFID transponder will be
showed with sound and lights signaling, the user can be sure of the reading success. The device sounds,
lights and signaling capabilities can be used to further entitlement feedback too, which instructed the
eligibility by the computer, in case of bidirectional communication capability interfaces.
The Proxer7 i s a great configurable device that allows the use of existing ex-post, in-built system.
Changing the parameters often change the basic operation of the device, which in extreme cases can result
in even further communications fail. For the easier handling and restore the default settings, on the Proxer7
desktop versions back is a RESET button, by pressing restarts the device with default parameters.

Parameters description
Transmitter presence
The Proxer7 Proximity RFID reader is able to continual card presence observing, thereby further
expanding the capabilities of the reader. For example, the RFID card can be used as hardware key, where
the computer application will run only as long, as the authorized card is on the reader. The Proxer7 reader
with default settings will be reading the ID transmitter only once, if the transmitter does not leave the radio
frequency field. The wat ching of the transmitter presence is a switchable parameter, the effect depends on
the mode of searching, and it has effect only with automatic adjustment. The device in case of RFID

transmitter, gives one light- and
sound signal, send the read ID to
the HOST and then switch off the
reading field.
Adjustable sound- and light signals
On the Proxer7 device are the sound- and light signals changeable. In case of the sound signals is
there 4 versions (ON, OFF, authorized transmitter, unauthorized transmitter), all of them are adjustable
parameters. To the customization are available 12 pre-defined audio samples, each of them can be selected
as a sound signal. Light signals have two schemes. The „Proxer7” scheme is of the Procontrol Electronics
Ltd. own developed light-signaling scheme. The description of the light signaling sees at the end of the
document.
Sent bit number
The RFID transponder ID can be represented by number of bits. This parameter is a numeric value;
the Proxer7 reader will send the data according to the number of bits. The number of bits interprets by LSB.
The following table shows the effect of the parameter on the 32547698 ID. The binary is to 32 bits, the
decimal data is to 10 characters supplemented to see.

Sent datatype
The RFID transponders are from general to allow the verification of the correctness of the data
stream in either parity bits, or using ’checksum’. The Proxer7 reader verifies the correctness of the data
stream in all cases. It also happens that the transponder’s physically printed ID came from the given
sequence of data stream. So we talk decoded and undecoded data stream. In both cases the data stream
identifies the card. The decoding is the recover to the provided number by the manufacturer, the possibility
of individual identification with the transponder is not affected.
The undecoded data stream will be in all cases in hex format forward.
Sent
datatype
Explanation
Decoded
If the identification of the RFID type is successful and the decoding information is
available, the reader decrypts the specified identification number by manufacturer’s and
then transmits via communication interface to the user.
Undecoded
The RFID transponder ID will be sent to the PC 1:1, only in hex format
Sent number of characters
The needed characters to the identification of RFID ID may be different, depending on the size of
the ID number (the larger the number, the more characters can be repres en ted only). If the connected system
wait for constant number of character sending, namely does not handle the dynamically changing number of
character IDs, in case of that should be send the independent of the size of ID number, which can be made
with this parameter.
If the ID does not fit the here defined number of characters, the Proxer7 automatically send at the
length which good for it. If the ID would be fit on shorter character, as the here defined, the Proxer7
supplement. (See under „Additional character” parameter).
If the ID does not fit the here defined number of characters, but do not wa nt t he Proxer7 send more
characters because of foregoing, needed the size of ID reduce with the ’sent number of bits’ parameter.
The following example illustrates the operation described above. The value of the additional
characters is „0” currently. It is assumed that sending the decoded data stream is set, so the Proxer7 reader
will send a decimal number.

The Proxer7 device’s basic function is the reading and sending of the RFID transponder ID. It may
be necessary in established system to use a custom frames attach to the message. The Proxer7 device can
store a 20 character long message, within the place of ID determined, allowing an individual parcel frame,
the opening and closing characters to add to the message. The total length of the message is given here by
the number of frame characters and length of ID, so the 20 character length would be not reduced.
In the following example the sent number of bits = 32, sent number of character = 10 and
additional character = 0.

Code into two parts
A significant number of currently widespread RFID systems operate with 32-bit identifier, but the
older RFID systems used 16-bit identifier. To ensure the compatibility of such systems, the user practice
spread to the more advanced 32-bit identifier 2x16-bit identification number interpreted divided into two
sent some readers. The, the Proxer7 can send the code into two parts with enabled parameter.
The parameter will be read with Sent datatype = Decoded card data and in case of receiving
identification of appropriate length (32-bit). The parameter interacts with the Sent characters parameter,
the number of characters will be read on the full length of message, so the 2x16-bit will be jointly
represented on the character number.
The effect of the parameters showed in the following example, Sent num ber of bits = 32, Sent
number of character = 10 and additional character = 0

Communication protocol
The Proxer7 device knows two types of communication protocol, the ASCII protocol and the PCSW
protocol developed by Procontrol Electronics Ltd. The ASCII is a simple character coder standard, based on
Latin ABC. Practically service a simple text output, the ID of card will be sent as a simple numeric
character string. The PCS (Procontrol Communication Standard) is the own standard of Procontrol
Electronics Ltd. More complex, but more secure, packet transfer based method, the detailed description can
be asked at ordering.
ATTENTION! The commands would only be executed of the correct modes and functions are activate
(eligibility fee d ba ck, card presence, transmitter searching)!
The type of communication protocol is a switchable parameter. The settings vary according to the
command structure; this is summarized in the table below.

Device modes – transmitter searching
The Proxer7 proximity RFID reader works basically in two modes, the type of modes is a
switchable parameter. In the „automatic” mode the device start the transmitter search, in „the command”
mode from t he HOST came command stars. The settings of mode are with effect on the speed of reading
and on the radio frequency field (and the consequent uneasiness). In the automatic mode the starter of
reading is the device (depends on the version) or the user. The modes and their effect see in the table below:
Start of transmitter

The Proxer7 RFID reader can more peripheries emulate with USB port to the PC connected, it
allows wide range of integration. The type of emulation parameters can be adjusted by the user. The
emulated peripheral devices are as follows.
Emulated periphery via USB
Short description
Virtual serial port
The PC after the install of the right driver knows the device as a
serial port. Each communication with the device is easily through a
simple terminal program. Parameters of serial communication:
115200kbaud, 8bit, 1 stop bit.
Virtual keyboard*
The PC know the device as a keyboard, the data will detect as a
keyboard typed characters.
* In that mode the communication can be only one way, the device can send data to the PC, reverse
communication is not possible. To restore the two ways communication see below the detailed description.
Language of keyboard emulation
The Proxer7 with appropriate settings is suitable for multiple language keyboard emulation. The
different language manifests in the practice of the different button allocation. T he button code depends on
the physical location of button. The same location in two different language keyboard results the same code.
The PC’s operating system identifies the correct character depend on the language settings. For example:
the code of „0” character is on the English and Hungarian keyboard: the code of “0” on the English
keyboard is “ö” character code on the Hungarian keyboard. Selecting the appropriate language ensures that
the PC interpret the characters from the Proxer7 device properly.
The select of the keyboard language obviously interpreted only in case of USB keyboard emulation
application. In case of other type is ineffective.
