How to Configure D2 Keypad
Xpass D2 Keypad is a new device introduced with BioStar 2.6.2.
It is a dummy reader for reading cards or PIN, which means it doesn’t perform data matching on itself.
The device can be used as a slave device, or a Wiegand reader to send Wiegand output.
The device sends out Wiegand signals with the default 26bit format and the Wiegand configuration will be done with a separate tool.
