Wiegand NG - Multi Bit Wiegand Library for Arduino

This library is re-written from Wiegand 24 and Wiegand 36 Protocol Library for Arduino because the original library was coded to only detect 8, 26 and 34 bit Wiegand based on this Wiegand RFID Reader.

Wiegand NG supports unlimited bits (maximum memory allocatable by Arduino) and also support third party decoding scheme to be added. The original suggestion came from digitalentropy after submitting an issue on the original library's github page.

Features

unlimited bits (maximum memory allocatable by Arduino)
third party decoding support
customizable pulseGap
3 Wiegand Readers when using Arduino Mega (untested)

Requirements

The following are needed

Arduino Any ATMEGA328 compatible board should work.
Wiegand RFID Reader The code was written for this reader however customers reported working with [HID] (http://www.hidglobal.com/products/cards-and-credentials) compatible readers.
DATA0 of Wiegand connects to Arduino PIN 2 and DATA1 of Wiegand connects to Arduino PIN 3

Installation

Create a folder named Wiegand in Arduino's libraries folder. You will have the following folder structure:

cd arduino/libraries
mkdir WiegandNG
cd WiegandNG
git clone https://github.com/jpliew/Wiegand-NG-Multi-Bit-Wiegand-Library-for-Arduino.git .

Arduino Sketch

Execute Arduino IDE, select Example-->WiegandNG-->WiegandRawTest

Example

#include <WiegandNG.h>

WiegandNG wg;

void PrintBinary(WiegandNG &tempwg) {
	volatile unsigned char *buffer=tempwg.getRawData();
	unsigned int bufferSize = tempwg.getBufferSize();
	unsigned int countedBits = tempwg.getBitCounted();

	unsigned int countedBytes = (countedBits/8);
	if ((countedBits % 8)>0) countedBytes++;
	// unsigned int bitsUsed = countedBytes * 8;
	
	for (unsigned int i=bufferSize-countedBytes; i< bufferSize;i++) {
		unsigned char bufByte=buffer[i];
		for(int x=0; x<8;x++) {
			if ( (((bufferSize-i) *8)-x) <= countedBits) {
				if((bufByte & 0x80)) {
					Serial.print("1");
				}
				else {
					Serial.print("0");
				}
			}
			bufByte<<=1;
		}
	}
	Serial.println();
}

void setup() {
	Serial.begin(9600);

	// for UNO just use wg.begin(), will default to Pin 2 and Pin 3 
	// connected to D0 and D1 respectively
	// initialize Wiegand ND for 48 bit data, every 8 bits take 
	// up 1 byte of Arduino memory
	// as long as there is still memory, user can even capture 
	// 1024 bit Wiegand by calling wg.begin(1024)

	unsigned int pinD0 = 2;
	unsigned int pinD1 = 3;
	unsigned int wiegandbits = 48;
	unsigned int packetGap = 15;			// 25 ms between packet
	
	if(!wg.begin(pinD0, pinD1, wiegandbits, packetGap)) {
		Serial.println("Out of memory!");
	}
	Serial.println("Ready...");
}

void loop() {
	if(wg.available()) {
		wg.pause();			// pause Wiegand pin interrupts
		Serial.print("Bits=");
		Serial.println(wg.getBitCounted()); // display the number of bits counted
		Serial.print("RAW Binary=");
		PrintBinary(wg); // display raw data in binary form, raw data inclusive of PARITY
		wg.clear();	// compulsory to call clear() to enable interrupts for subsequent data
	}
}
