Other Features

Multi Card Technology
Available with 13.56MHz smart card capability, or as a multi technology reader that combines both 125kHz proximity and 13.56MHz capabilities in a single unit delivering maximum compatibility while providing a path forward to the latest technology. The multi technology reader is ideal for organizations that wish to transition to smart technology at their own pace, as it means they don’t need to replace all their cards upfront.
Flexible Communication
Choose between the intelligent RS-485 connection for fast, flexible, secure communication, or Wiegand for compatibility with all standard access control systems. RS-485 provides the added benefits of being easier and more cost effective to wire and deploy, and allows for direct integration with Protege systems enabling you to make changes on the fly once readers are installed. RS-485 also allows for longer cable runs and offers a simpler firmware update process.
Bluetooth® / NFC Credential Reading
Bluetooth / NFC capability enables you to use your smartphone as your access credential for maximum convenience. Equipped with support for most modern iPhone and Android devices, you can unlock the door using a unique access credential that is supplied by the Protege Mobile App, entered against your user record in Protege, and authenticated by a secure cloud based server.*
IP65 Protection
The IP65 environmental rating provides a high degree of protection from the elements, making the tSec reader suitable for harsh environments. Readers can be mounted indoors or outdoors, located anywhere from the car park gate to the office door.
Configurable LED Strip
The tSec reader provides the ability to change the color of the LED strip (16 colors available) to show when a function has started, succeeded or failed. For example, when a function is used to arm an area, you can set the LED to change to purple to show that the function has started, yellow to show that the area has armed successfully, and red to indicate that the function has failed.
Optional Features

A range of optional features means there is a model to suit everyone.
> Choose from the 13.56MHz (DESFire/MIFARE) card reader or the Multi-Technology model that supports both 13.56MHz and 125kHz formats
> Opt for either black or white according to your decor

Optional Vandal Resistant Cover

Designed to withstand some of the harshest settings, the optional vandal resistant covers are ideal for locations where a card reader may be exposed to damage, including corridors, parking buildings, correctional facilities, and other public places. Highly resistant to impact, such as from the swing of a hammer or baseball bat, its robust construction provides greater durability and protection against vandalism and malicious damage. The flush design also serves as an anti-ligature measure for an additional level of safety.
Optional Vandal Resistant Cover

Note that regular keypad variations of the tSec range do not operate correctly with the vandal resistant covers that are provided separately. You must order the reader as a kit (including the cover) using the relevant part codes
