How to Configure XPass D2

XPass D2 is a new device introduced with BioStar 2.6.
It is a dummy reader for reading cards, 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 a Wiegand signal with the default 26bit format and the Wiegand configuration will be done with a separate tool Device manager.
