How the compatible Keyscan C15001 36-bit works
The Keyscan C15001 36-bit is a 125 kHz low-frequency proximity credential — the band most legacy prox readers use. Its data structure is 36-bit C15001: parity + 10-bit OEM code + 8-bit facility + 16-bit card + parity (carries an OEM field); Same 36-bit length as Lenel L11601 but DIFFERENT encoding. When you present a credential, the reader decodes that exact structure and passes it to your access-control panel as a card number it recognises.
We build the compatible Keyscan C15001 36-bit by encoding the identical data structure onto a programmable T5577 / EM4305 chip. Once written, the reader cannot tell the difference between our credential and the original — it presents the same bits, the same facility code, and the same card number. That is what "compatible by specification" means: not a generic look-alike, but a credential engineered to read exactly as the original does, matched to your facility code and card-number range.
To order, tell us the part number or format printed on your existing Keyscan card, along with your facility code and card-number range, and our specialists confirm the encoding before anything ships. Bulk and reorder quantities are welcome — pricing is a fraction of OEM list, and every credential is verified to read on your existing equipment.
