HID 920PTNTEK00000 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000 read my existing HID Prox cards, or do I have to reissue credentials?
The R40 reader, part 920PTNTEK00000, reads HID Prox, AWID, and EM4102 (32 bits) credentials, so existing HID Prox cards and fobs keep working. The multi-technology read set is also what lets you consolidate a site that has picked up AWID or EM4102 cards over the years onto one reader model without reissuing badges.
2) What is an alternative to the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000 if I need a 125 kHz proximity reader on a Wiegand controller input?
The SDC IPRW Series Wiegand proximity reader is a 125 kHz reader with HID compatibility that also talks to the controller over Wiegand, so it lands on the same controller input as the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000. The HID R40 itself reads HID Prox, AWID and EM4102 (32 bits) credentials and is finished in black. If your installed card population is mixed across those three formats, the R40 is the one that names all three; if your site is running standard 125 kHz HID-format prox cards only, the SDC IPRW Series covers that.
3) Is the HID R40 a card reader only, or does it have a keypad for PIN entry?
Card read only. The R40 920PTNTEK00000 is a credential reader with no keypad, so if the opening needs card-plus-PIN or PIN-only access you need a keypad reader instead of this model.
4) What else could I use instead of the HID R40 if I need a Wiegand prox reader?
The SDC IPRW Series Wiegand proximity reader is the closest cross-brand alternative ZenSupply carries: it is also a Wiegand-output prox reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility. The difference is credential breadth, the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000 also reads AWID and EM4102 (32 bits), so if your site has mixed card stock the R40 covers more of it.
5) Does the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000 include a lock or strike, or just the reader?
Just the reader. The R40 is the credential reader only, so a complete opening still needs the controller, an electric strike or maglock, power supply, and credentials specified separately.
6) Will an SDC IPRW reader read the same cards as the HID 920PTNTEK00000 R40?
Only partly. The SDC IPRW Series is described as a 125 kHz proximity reader with HID compatibility, so it addresses HID-format 125 kHz credentials. The HID R40 920PTNTEK00000 is specified for HID Prox plus AWID and EM4102 (32 bits). If any badges in circulation at the facility are AWID or EM4102, verify those formats before substituting, because the IPRW is called out for HID compatibility rather than for that multi-format range.
7) What color is the HID R40 920PTNTEK00000, and will it match readers already installed in my building?
Black. If the other openings in the building are running black HID R-series readers on Wiegand, this one matches visually and behaves the same at the panel, which is what property managers standardizing a fleet of doors usually care about.
8) Is the HID R40 reader suitable for commercial access control, or is it a residential device?
It is a commercial-grade electronic access control reader, intended for panel-based access systems in commercial, institutional, and multi-family buildings rather than standalone residential use.
