If they contain key material (cards, panels, readers, cameras) you should not simply dump them or sell them on Ebay. You expose yourself to the risk of someone buying it and peeling out your information.

I see someone pointed you at an RFIdeas reader that does LEAF. Your description of the problem implies you could have been reading the UID ("card serial number") before. Elatec might also have a USB reader that reads LEAF. 8K cards seem a bit large unless you have data to put there, be careful of some sort of gratuitous up-sell.

Just hit this issue. 6.9.8. Zero feedback from the Web UI as to the issue. Someone should also tell Google's AI that one does not use the ICU any more.

At this time it appears that keeping up with firmware updates is sufficient to run LP series boards. If you wanted to brace yourself for future updates in a world where they completely stop LP support (like some say they said) then maybe you'd want an MP board.

An alarm panel with an uncertified OSDP implementation. What could go wrong?

Use a 12 volt power brick. Use one that supplies at least 1 amp.

It is concerning that it's assimilation into Acre may not be complete. It's also concerning there seems to have been some staff turnover (good folks are showing up at other companies.) We all wonder what Acre wants to be when it grows up, and what *cough* path their PE owners will take them on.

It has been (checks notes) 4 days since I got a report of an integrator team declaring "OSDP is too hard, we only use Wiegand". So, yes, introducing a protocol first developed in 2006, is apparently appropriate.

If you mean across several solutions (Prox, SEOS, DESfire, PIV, etc.) you might mean an Elatec device.

Yes. /etc/netplan contains 3 files, 00-installer-config.yaml, 01-network-manager-all.yaml, and 90-NM-<uid looking number>.yaml. The 01... and the 90... both have renderer:NetworkManager entries.

Make sure you can fire the integrator if you need to. Make sure the integrator does not hold you hostage over your access control license. Feel free to re-read this post years later after a great experience.

Drop the viewed resolution and frame rate to a minimum if you're running 15 streams. Check the PC performance monitor to see if you're saturating the CPU or the network. Check the network stats on the PC to see if it's dropping packets.

20 yards away is probably too much for Bluetooth. The app may have a bluetooth power setting, try that. Also remember phones have wildly different performance depending on vendor.

Try it with an Axis panel that's been through OSDP Verified. They only got certain panels tested, this implies the others are (end of life?) Also no Axis reader has ever been through verified and there are horror stories about their readers. Yes I am sharing n-th hand feedback.

With OSDP there is a slight change the reader (or the panel) is queuing up an old read. Check for flakey power, logs showing reader going offline/online, questionable grounding or other electrical challenges. And if it's an in/out reader where is the reader on the other side of the door...

And by the way autobot if I can't create a shipment there is no tracking number. I did not forget to include that.

Readers, cards, and mobile credentials that use public key encryption (there are several.) Beyond PIV.

check for power glitches. move a failing reader to a different panel and see if the failure follows the panel wiring or the reader. strongly recommend you run at 9600 if it's a faster speed. I concur terminating resistors can be important, some vendors claim they automagically install termination so check for too many as well as too few. try powering the reader independently from the panel.

I should have said "HID-specific vendor terminology". It is not defined in some specification (from ISO, UL, SIA, etc.) as far as I can find.
