Run the example

  1. Install and run the device gateway
  2. Download the C# client library
  3. Copy the root certificate of the device gateway to your working directory. As default, the certificate(ca.crt) resides in cert of the installation directory.
  4. The example uses grpc-dotnet. You can change the example/wiegand/test/test.csproj file as needed.

  5. Change the gateway and the device information in example/wiegand/test/Program.cs as needed.

     // the path of the root certificate
 private const string GATEWAY_CA_FILE = "../../../../cert/gateway/ca.crt";

 // the address of the gateway
 private const string GATEWAY_ADDR = "192.168.0.2";
 private const int GATEWAY_PORT = 4000;

 // the ip address of the target device
 private const string DEVICE_ADDR = "192.168.0.110";
 private const int DEVICE_PORT = 51211;

  6. Build and run.

     cd example/wiegand/test
 dotnet run

1. Connect to the gateway and the device

The example assumes you use the device gateway. For the master gateway or other connection options, refer to the Connect or ConnectMaster examples.

  GatewayClient gatewayClient = new GatewayClient();
  gatewayClient.Connect(GATEWAY_CA_FILE, GATEWAY_ADDR, GATEWAY_PORT);

  var connectInfo = new ConnectInfo{ IPAddr = DEVICE_ADDR, Port = DEVICE_PORT, UseSSL = USE_SSL };
  uint devID = userTest.connectSvc.Connect(connectInfo);

2. Make the standard 26 bit format

The 26 bit standard format consists of 8 bit facility code and 16 bit id. It is one of the most widely used formats in the industry.

  // 26 bit standard
  // FC: 01 1111 1110 0000 0000 0000 0000 : 0x01fe0000
  // ID: 00 0000 0001 1111 1111 1111 1110 : 0x0001fffe
  // EP: 01 1111 1111 1110 0000 0000 0000 : 0x01ffe000, Pos 0, Type: Even
  // OP: 00 0000 0000 0001 1111 1111 1110 : 0x00001ffe, Pos 25, Type: Odd 

  WiegandFormat default26bit = new WiegandFormat{
    Length = 26,
    IDFields = {
      ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}), // Facility Code
      ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0}) // ID
    },
    ParityFields = {
      new ParityField{ ParityPos = 0, ParityType = WiegandParity.Even, Data = ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}) },
      new ParityField{ ParityPos = 25, ParityType = WiegandParity.Odd, Data = ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0}) }
    }
  };

  WiegandConfig defaultConfig = new WiegandConfig{
    Mode = WiegandMode.WiegandInOnly,
    UseWiegandBypass = false,
    UseFailCode = false,

    OutPulseWidth = 40,
    OutPulseInterval = 10000,
    Formats = { default26bit }
  };

  wiegandSvc.SetConfig(deviceID, defaultConfig);

3. Make the HID 37 bit format

The HID 37 format consists of 16 bit facility code and 19 bit ID.

  // 37 bit HID
  // FC: 0 1111 1111 1111 1111 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 : 0x0ffff00000
  // ID: 0 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111 1111 1111 1110 : 0x00000ffffe
  // EP: 0 1111 1111 1111 1111 1100 0000 0000 0000 0000 : 0x0ffffc0000, Pos 0, Type: Even
  // OP: 0 0000 0000 0000 0000 0111 1111 1111 1111 1110 : 0x000007fffe, Pos 36, Type: Odd

  WiegandFormat hid37bitFormat = new WiegandFormat{
    Length = 37,
    IDFields = {
      ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}), // Facility Code
      ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0 ,0 ,0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0}) // ID
    },
    ParityFields = {
      new ParityField{ ParityPos = 0, ParityType = WiegandParity.Even, Data = ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}) },
      new ParityField{ ParityPos = 36, ParityType = WiegandParity.Odd, Data = ByteString.CopyFrom(new byte[]{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0 ,0 ,0, 0, 0, 0, 0, /**/ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, /**/ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0}) }
    }
  };

  WiegandConfig hid37bitConfig = new WiegandConfig{
    Mode = WiegandMode.WiegandInOnly,
    UseWiegandBypass = false,
    UseFailCode = false,

    OutPulseWidth = 40,
    OutPulseInterval = 10000,
    Formats = { hid37bitFormat }
  };

  wiegandSvc.SetConfig(deviceID, hid37bitConfig);
