Card Type Information
The AX200 supports up to 4,000 different card formats and facility codes. The format and facility
code combined is called a card type.
Format is the number of bits programmed in a card and the location of parity checks.
E.g. 26 bits
OF FFFFFFFC CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCE
odd parity
1 to 13
facility code
even parity
14 to 26
card number
The first and last bit check that the data received is correct.
8 x F indicates facility code
16 x C indicates card number location
The card type information tab under Formats and Statistics gives a total system overview of the
number of cards and records in the system.
Details are provided per card format/facility code on:
Total Cardholders in the database
Total active cards
Total lost cards
Total stolen cards
Total suspended cards
Total destroyed cards
Total inactive cards
Total records of card 0 (cardholder details with no card issued)
Facility Code
Is a number allocated to a specific customer to avoid that card 1 would have access also on
another system which uses card 1. A 26 bit format is not recommended since it allows only 256
different facility codes worldwide.
