LEGIC Identsystems Ltd, the leading supplier of contactless smart card technologies for personal identification applications, has in 2007 set the standards for the contactless identification market through several product releases. To name a few like the card-in-card solutions for third party Smart Cards and NFC phones, the Configurator-Soft- and Hardware CSW / CHW-2000, the ATC128-MV210 crypto transponder chip and also through the expansion of its LEGIC advant product line to battery powered applications. Explore contactless and secure multi-applications with the LEGIC all-in-one area on third party smart cards LEGIC card-in-card solutions combine smart card micro-controllers with physical access and related multi-applications on one single smart card chip. The core element is the LEGIC all-in-one area which is a multi-application space that behaves like all other LEGIC advant crypto transponders. The LEGIC all-in-one area runs on contactless smart card micro-controllers provided by third parties. Smart card micro-controllers are commonly used for applications including logical access to PC and networks (PKI), mobile phones, banking and public transport. LEGIC card-in-card extends these with physical access and related multi-applications leading to true all-in-one multi-application credentials. The LEGIC advant Configurator Hardware CHW-2000 is a universal desktop reader to initialise, write and read LEGIC credentials
The robust desktop reader CHW-2000 is suitable especially to initialise and analyse LEGIC credentials. Its design is optimised to hold various credential shapes like cards, keys and fobs, wristbands and watches, as well as mobile phones. The CHW-2000 can be operated with the LEGIC Configurator Software CSW-2000, the LEGIC Development Kit Software DKS-2000 or alternative software available from a LEGIC partner. The integrated LEGIC advant reader module can be easily upgraded through the USB interface. Thus, new features are quickly available. The Configurator Software CSW-2000 is a helpful tool to configure and analyse applications on LEGIC credentials With the CSW-2000 segments can be defined and credentials can be initialised (e.g. as Master-Token or as user credential). The configuration required for a project can be easily administrated. The graphical user interface enables a quick analysis of credentials as well as the configuration of LEGIC advant reader modules. The CSW-2000 can be operated together with the Configurator Hardware CHW-2000, the Development Kit DK-2000 or a LEGIC advant based reader from a LEGIC partner. New cost-effective LEGIC advant transponder chip The ATC128-MV210 crypto transponder chip meets the need for a secure low-memory and cost-effective transponder in the 13.56 MHz area. With a user memory of 128bytes - enough to typically house 3 applications - the new transponder is designed for basic access control and leisure applications such as event ticketing and leisure passes. The ATC128-MV is a full member of the LEGIC advant product family and has the same high security and functionality level like all other LEGIC advant transponders. The ATC128-MV210 crypto transponder chip is fully compatible with the ISO 15693 standard. How to reduce maintenance costs significantly for off-line door locks with unique low-power function By expanding the reader chip functionality of its LEGIC advant product line to battery-powered applications, LEGIC now offers a cost-effective alternative for stand-alone contactless physical access. Using a new and unique "low power" feature enables energy-efficient contactless door lock solutions. Until now, such stand-alone solutions (which repetitively power-down and wake-up the lock/card reader, thus saving energy) required the installation of expensive and bulky mechanical switches or infrared sensors as an energy-saving alternative to the wired "always on" readers. Beyond saving energy, this contactless solution is cost-effective (the simplified circuit reduces development and production costs) and can greatly extend battery life, under certain circumstances up to 200 times and thus reduce maintenance and servicing. LEGIC advant is LEGIC's most advanced product line for state-of-the art high security and multi-applications including access control, personal identification, biometrics, IT access compliant with ISO 15693, ISO 14443 and LEGIC RF standards. |
