Patented OSDP Autodetect

All WaveLynx Technologies Ethos Series readers have OSDP communication with a patented auto detect feature. That includes the ET10 Mullion Reader, the ET20 Wall Mount Reader and the ET25 Keypad Reader. The auto-detect feature allows the reader to automatically switch from the Wiegand protocol to OSDP when the panel is upgraded to OSDP, with no need to re-wire or re-configure the reader for OSDP functionality. Secure smart cards or mobile credentials can be introduced at any time.
