What it Does

• Checks a reader: identity, capabilities, status, polling, reply timing, check characters, how it treats a repeated command or one with a damaged check, and its Secure Channel (the handshake, secured traffic, and the refusals a reader must make).
• Checks a controller: answers as a reader, grades every command it sends (Secure Channel included), and sees what it does after a damaged reply, a BUSY or a wrong first MAC.
• Lists the whole OSDP conformance checklist. You record pass, fail, not applicable or skip, with a note, for every row it cannot check itself, such as key set and rekeying.
• Saves a report to a file you keep, opens it again, or prints it. Nothing is stored in your browser or on our servers.

It is a rehearsal for the OSDP Verified conformance list. It is not a certification and not a substitute for an approved test lab. A device that does not answer at all marks the rows that depend on it “not run”, not failed.

What you Need

• Desktop Chrome or Edge with a USB-to-RS-485 adapter. Your browser asks you to choose the adapter, and the page can only use the one you pick.
• The reader or controller to check, wired to the adapter, and (for a reader) its OSDP address and baud rate. For the Secure Channel checks, its key if it does not use the default; the key stays in the page.
• Only one tab can use the adapter at a time, so close any other OSDP Tools tab that has it open.
