Issue
Is it possible to setup more than one custom card format in Security Expert?
Product Line

Environment
- Security Expert
- Custom Card Formats
Cause
Have a requirement for two or more custom card formats.
Resolution
Currently, only one Custom Format can be configured.
It is possible to add a Secondary Format to a Reader port in Reader Expanders, but only one port can be setup with a Custom Format.
However, Credential Types have now been introduced with the release of Security Expert 4.3, which largely supersedes Custom Formats going forward and allows multiple custom card formats and even QR codes where required. Please see AN 276 Security Expert - Configuring Credential Types - Integration Guide for more information on setting up Credential Types and Maximum number of Credential Types for more info on how many can be used.
