Symmetry™ S831
Micro Contactless Smart Card Reader
The
Symmetry S831 is a small-footprint Contactless Smart Card Reader.
The Symmetry S831 is able to read both Texas Instruments™
15693) smart cards, and the
card serial number on Philips® MIFARE® smart cards.
For either type of card, the Symmetry S831 supports the use of unencoded cards (where only
the unique card serial number is read).
In the case of Texas Instruments (TI) cards,
an encoded card number can be read. Encoding formats supported include TI’s
own formats and our own “smartMAX” format.
The Symmetry S831’s small size makes it ideal for mounting unobtrusively.
The Symmetry S831 can be connected to the Symmetry multiNODE range of controllers and compatible with Business, Professional,
Enterprise and Global Software at Version 6.0.2 and later.
Unlike Wiegand interface readers, the Symmetry S831 uses secure, bi-directional,
Pseudo-Random
supervised communications between the Symmetry multiNODE controllers and their associated
readers. An alarm will sound if communications are lost.
A distance from any of the Symmetry multiNODE controllers to the Symmetry S831 reader of up to 3000ft
(1000m) can also be achieved.
The Symmetry S831 has a maximum read range of up to 2” (50mm).
Other key features include LEDs for visual indication of card accepted or card rejected
and an integrated buzzer for card read and door pre-held warning.
The Symmetry S831 Micro Contactless Smart Card Reader is very cost effective and comes with
exceptional reliability and consistent read range characteristics.
The Symmetry S831 has fully potted electronics making it ideal for both outdoor and indoor
use. It is warranted against defects in workmanship for life (see our warranty policy
for details).
