This document gives information on how to setup card number emulation on a i80p reader. Often called pincode-only use. For the user this acts like a pincode but in the iProtect™ user interface it is a normal access card with pincode behaviour.
This how to will assume you already have an i80p reader functioning with normal access cards.
Go to Menu option: Access > Settings > Card coding > Card number presentation

Click on “Set”.

The card data interpretation for normal access can be found in the reader settings.
Go to menu option: Installation > Hardware > Reader.
Click on the Search button or find the desired reader by using the search option.
Select the desired reader
At the tab General you can find the selected card data interpretation which is used for the normal access cards.

Create the card (pincode), this is a dedicated card for the pincode only functionality.
Go to the menu option : Access > Card
Right-click in the treeview and click on add card.
