LAPEER, Mich.—Cypress Integration Solutions, has announced the release of its newly upgraded OSM-2400 OSDP-Wiegand Converter for customers within the U.S.
The OSM-2400 retrofits Wiegand access control systems to support OSDP, by using the converter with an OSDP reader and Wiegand panel. The converter can also be used with a Wiegand reader and OSDP panel. The OSM-2400 Converter was redesigned due to supply chain issues.
“In general, we intended the original OSDP-Wiegand Converter to be installed with an OSDP reader and Wiegand panel, with the OSDP reader resolving the Wiegand vulnerability,” states Jacob LeRoy, customer support specialist, Cypress Integration Solutions.
“With today’s supply chain disruptions, integrators are requesting the converter to use with existing Wiegand readers and a new OSDP controller. Ideally this would be a short-term scenario, where the migration to OSDP becomes complete when the budget or supply chain allows.”
OSM-2400 OSDP Wiegand Converter Upgrade Meets Dealer Requirements
Cypress Integration explains that along with addressing supply chain shortages, the OSM-2400 Converter fulfills a common customer request for a second LED I/O line. The upgraded converter can operate with a single LED line or 2 LED lines, depending on the type of reader it is used with.
The OSM-2400 additionally supports LED, Buzzer, and Relay Output I/O. DIP switches provide options for manually setting the device address, selecting different modes for I/O behavior, and selecting one of two operating modes: Access Control Unit (ACU) mode or Peripheral Device (PD) mode.
The Michigan-based manufacturer adds that integrators can see the newly upgraded converter at ISC West 2023 in booth #5060.
