The extra Auxiliary I/Os on the 4-Port and 8-Port Boards are helpful for wiring Wiegand devices, however, any I/O pair may be used (including Contact and REX inputs).
To configure Wiegand devices in the Control Center:
Go to https://control.openpath.com/login and log in. To access the European Control Center, please go to https://control.eu.openpath.com/login
Go to Devices > ACUs, then click on the ACU to edit it
Click on the Ports tab
Click Port next to the first input of the I/O pair with a Wiegand device configured (in example 1, Contact2; in example 2, AUX1)
Select Wiegand Device from the Input Type dropdown, then click Save
This will label the subsequent input as Wiegand Device (Extended) and disable it from editing. Inputs cannot be changed if they are already assigned to an entry.
Once the Wiegand device is configured on the ACU, it can be assigned to an entry.
