Introduction 1

Introduction

The Wiegand Interface Unit-Four State (WIU-4) board features a

Wiegand to F/2F data converter, which can accommodate both

conventional and proprietary Wiegand reader protocols, and

includes an 8 Amp relay for door strike control (entrance/exit)

activity. It provides the communications interface that enables

support of up to 16 Wiegand-output readers.

When combined with most conventional Proximity, Mifare®, and

ISO-15693 Wiegand-output readers, the WIU-4 reports

immediate alarm notification of short circuit, cut line, open

circuit, or closed circuit conditions to the GE access control

system.

Safety

Radio interference

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) precaution

WARNING: This is an FCC Class A product. In a domestic

environment, this product may cause radio

interference, in which case, the user may be

required to take adequate measures.

WARNING: Circuit board components are vulnerable to damage

by electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can cause

immediate or subtle damage to sensitive electronic

parts. An electrostatic charge can build up on the

human body and then discharge when you touch a

board. A discharge can be produced when walking

across a carpet and touching a board, for example.

Before handling any board, make sure you dissipate

your body’s charge by touching ground. This

discharges any static electricity build-up.

Product features 3

Product features

The WIU-4 provides the following:

• Conversion of multiple Wiegand formats into GE

supervised F/2F format.

• Junction box capabilities with removable connectors for

ease of wiring.

• Built-in door strike relay with surge protecting diodes.

• Red LED, green LED, and beeper control outputs.

• Supports reader tamper and external tamper inputs.

• Self-resetting fuse protection on all power and signal

outputs.

• Options for supervised or unsupervised Door DI and

request-to-exit (REX) DI inputs.

• Built-in surge protection circuitry for data lines.

• Four built-in LEDs to help with installation and

troubleshooting.

• Supports Wiegand formats up to 64 bits.

• Supports most 8 bit keypad reader output formats.

Note: Do not use the WIU-4 with a 2SRP supervised reader processor

board/microcontroller configuration.

Maximum cabling distance

WIU-4 to micro:**

WIU-4 to reader:***

** WIU-4 to micro: The maximum cabling distance of 1,000 ft (304.8 meters) is

influenced by wire gauge, reader power requirements, and the 12 VDC level from

the microcontroller.

*** WIU-4 to reader: The maximum cabling distance of 250 ft (76.20 meters) is

influenced by wire gauge, reader power requirements, minimum input voltage at

the reader when using the 12 VDC from the WIU-4 (originally from the micro), and

the cabling between the WIU-4 and micro.

1000 ft (304.8 m) @ 12 VDC with 20 AWG cable

250 ft (76.2 m) @ 12 VDC with 20 AWG cable

Door strike relay****

**** The life of the relay decreases as the current switched by the contacts is

increased. Use low current door strikes for high traffic doors to maximize the

relay life. Use an external relay for high current applications.

8.0 A @ 30 VDC maximum
