what programs or scripts did you write on the raspberry pi to do this so simply? I have a team that wants to parse wiegand data from rfid readers to use for attendance logs. It would be great to use this and write the data to a google sheets or some other database record. Do you have your steps or process anywhere?
Hi Daniel, I am stuck trying to get a signal out of my Suprema (Bioentry W2). Are you using just the Ground, D0 and D1 wires coming from the Suprema device? Is there a way to test (e.g. multi-meter?) if the reader is sending out a Weigand signal?
i need to do something similar, for a punch clock from a wiegand reader. At first I've built a php server with php file. I've got one php file for each card and when you run it, it creates a timestamp in a log with the name of the employee. I've tried to keep it simple for beginning, i know I could do better software but hey it works. Now is the part missing, I need to take the wiegand data from their exisiting acces control cards and with a reader and a pi, decode the card number and use the number to call the right file on the server. ex.: server.com/cardnumber.php. You did a better job on the server side thats for sure but my knowledge is limited. Do you read the wiegand with the GPIO also?
+Martin Proulx Good stuff. Yes, the wiegand data is read via the GPIO using C. I would parse the data and then call a single php file with some params.... card.php?number=12345678
Thank you. I'm building an custom ACU with a pi and you've done most of what I am looking for. Thanks for showing the possibilities

This is awesome, good work! There isn't much info out there about developing wiegand integration with fingerprint scanner. Thanks for sharing.
Not a problem. Cheers.

Hi Martin, some various projects in the pipeline! No need for any Net2 software or hardware!
Can we expect a Bree Raspberry PI based ACU soon then Dan? How are you entering information into the DB, through Net2?
hi, thank you for video but what the pin did you use for Data0 and data1 how to retrieve data from it
