26 Bit Card Format
The standard 26 bit Wiegand format is H10301. The format consists of 2 parity bits, 8 bit Facility Code and 16 bit Cardholder ID fields.
PFFFFFFFFCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCP
EXXXXXXXXXXXX.............
.............XXXXXXXXXXXXO
P = Parity
O = Odd Parity
E = Even Parity
X = Parity mask
F = Facility Code, range = 0 to 255
C = Cardholder ID, range = 0 to 65,535
