Wiegand-26
Contents
Introduction
The ESP can also be used to read out RFID Tag Readers that are using the Wiegand-26 protocol.
The RFID reader has to be connected to two GPIO pins on the ESP module. The ESP uses an interrupt routine to decode the Wiegand-26 bitstream. The RFID reader will send a message to your Home Automation controller containing the unique RFID Tag ID.
Hardware
The Wiegand-26 RFID TAG Reader can be found on eBay. Please note that the outputs uses 5 volts signals and they should not directly be connected to the ESP. Use a level shifter!
This is just a sample of an RFID reader using the Wiegand-26 protocol.
This Wiegand-26 RFID Reader works with tags compliant with EM4001 ISO standard, on a frequentie of 125kHz.
Connections
WARNING: The unit uses 5 volt signals that can not be used on the ESP module. You must use a levelshifter!!!
The reader needs at least 6 volts. Do not connect VCC to the VCC on the ESP!!! (The unit will turn on at 5 volts, the led will turn on, but detection of RFID tags will fail!)

ESP Easy
Op de ESP Easy stel je via de webinterface het IDX in van het device in Domoticz. Op dit moment is dit nog in test en gebruiken we een "text device in Domoticz. De waarde van de tag verschijnt dan in het device. Nog uitzoeken hoe dit in de event processor kan worden gebruikt.
ESP Connexio
On the ESP Conneexio, the following event will appear:
RFID <reader nr>,<tag id>
| Parameter: | Description: | Range: | Remarks: |
|---|---|---|---|
| reader nr | Nummber of the tag reader that is connected | 1 of 2 | |
| tag id | Unique TAG ID | 1..2^26 |
