Introduction
The HID ISOProx II card is an advanced access control solution that integrates proximity card technology with the capability for photo identification on a single, durable card. Designed to be ISO 7810 compliant, this card features a nominal thickness of 3/128-inches, making it comparable in size and thickness to a standard credit card.
Its surface is optimized for high-quality Photo ID printing, available in standard PVC construction or a composite polyester/PVC for enhanced durability in demanding environments. For added security, ISOProx II cards can incorporate visual security features such as holograms, UV fluorescent inks, micro-printing, or custom logos, facilitating quick identification of genuine cards and robust access control.
Product Features
- Offers integrated proximity card technology with photo identification capability on a single access control card.
- Features a graphics quality surface specifically designed for use with direct image printers.
- Maintains the same physical dimensions and thickness as a standard credit card for easy integration.
- Supports both vertical and horizontal slot punch capabilities for versatile attachment options.
- Backed by a lifetime warranty, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
Setup
The HID ISOProx II card is designed for seamless integration into existing access control systems. No complex setup is required for the card itself, as it functions as a passive proximity device. The primary setup involves programming the card with your access control system and, if desired, printing photo identification directly onto its surface.
Initial Card Preparation
- Inspection: Before use, visually inspect each card for any physical damage or defects.
- Cleaning (Optional): If printing photo IDs, ensure the card surface is clean and free of dust or oils. Use a lint-free cloth if necessary.
System Integration
- Enrollment: Enroll the unique identification number of each ISOProx II card into your access control system's database. Refer to your access control system's manual for specific enrollment procedures.
- User Assignment: Assign the enrolled card to the respective user within the access control software.
Photo ID Printing (If Applicable)
For photo identification, use a direct image card printer compatible with PVC or composite cards. Follow the printer manufacturer's instructions for loading cards and printing images.

Operating Instructions
The HID ISOProx II card operates as a passive proximity device, meaning it does not require batteries and is activated by the electromagnetic field emitted by a compatible proximity card reader. Its operation is straightforward and user-friendly.
Using the Card for Access
- Approach the Reader: Hold the ISOProx II card within the read range of a compatible HID proximity card reader. The typical read range varies by reader model but is generally a few inches.
- Orientation: The card can be presented in any orientation, as the embedded antenna is designed for omnidirectional reading.
- Confirmation: Upon successful reading, the reader will typically provide a visual (e.g., green light) or audible (e.g., beep) confirmation. The access control system will then process the card's data to grant or deny access based on programmed permissions.
Note: Do not bend or excessively flex the card, as this may damage the internal antenna or circuitry.
Maintenance
The HID ISOProx II card is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Proper handling and storage will ensure its longevity and reliable performance.
General Care
- Cleaning: If the card surface becomes dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Avoid Extreme Conditions: Do not expose the card to extreme temperatures (hot or cold), direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or high humidity.
- Physical Stress: Avoid bending, twisting, or punching additional holes in the card, as this can damage the internal components. If a slot punch is required, use the designated areas or professional equipment.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep the card away from strong magnetic fields, which could potentially interfere with its operation.
Storage
Store cards in a clean, dry environment, preferably in a card holder or tray, to prevent scratches and physical damage when not in use.
