In the material you will see the inside of the UNIQUE tag copier, which made it easier to use the space after the company moved. Part of the building is separated by doors equipped with electric strikes and keyfob/card readers. The problem is that only three of the transferred tags work, each entrance has a different type of reader, one of which even has a buffer power supply, the rest is powered by plug-in power supplies connected near the passages, the company that serviced it has no contact.
Of course, we will replace this "system" with connected MIFARE readers, but everything in order. To make it easier for yourself, you need to "multiply" your UNIQUE tags. A copier was used for this, reading a constant string of 64 bits from the applied tag to memory and writing a string of 8 bytes to the T5577 or EM4305 key chains. In this way, for "PLN 100" we have the freedom to move around, without excessive investment in a makeshift, which is intended for disassembly.
Below is the inside of the copier, which is mostly empty space
a basket of two AAA batteries, a UNIQUE communication coil/antenna and a small printed circuit board. The main control unit is designated F300.
Transistor Q1 controls the buzzer without a generator, transistors Q2 and Q3 control the coil current. U1 during the reading generates a control signal that goes through R8 to the transistors.
The signal on the coil looks like this:
Detection takes 10ms.
There are no SMD components on the other side of the PCB.
The device did its job well and we will not waste funds on checking how to change the settings of existing readers, especially since each of them is of a different type and some of the cards did not work. This is a good solution to reduce the urgency of replacing the access control system.
When looking for a copier, I thought hard about the security of such solutions, because the search engine showed multi-system copiers for tags, working at frequencies of 125 kHz, 250 kHz, 500 kHz, 375 kHz, 625 kHz, 750 kHz, 875 kHz, 1000 kHz, but also those that supposedly duplicate Mifare HID cards. Some have bundled software that supposedly decodes scanned cards (whatever that means). It is difficult to predict whether bundled software from a little-known publisher has bugs or "hidden features".
