julian f67c1ead87 wiki: ER80 protocol = HTTP GET poll + JSON verdict (from QRCode SDK)
The QRCode SDK v1.6.5 settles the reader protocol (supersedes the earlier
serial guess). On each scan the reader HTTP-GETs the host
(/qa/mcardsea.php?cardid&mjihao&cjihao&status&time); the host replies JSON
{data:[{...,status,output}],code:0}. Reply status 1=valid(beep 2x)/0=invalid
(beep 1x); output 0=Access/1=WG26/2=WG34; time syncs the clock. The GET's status
low digit is the direction (1=in/0=out).

Key: the beep/accept is decided by the SERVER REPLY, not locally -- the 'no
beep' during bring-up was a plain-text reply, not a scan failure. Host-in-the-
loop and synchronous. 'Server language' only selects the URL path; transport is
plain HTTP.

Source: QRCode SDK v1.6.5 (GEE/Dingtian QR reader)

Vendor SDK for the QR access reader (gee-qr-er80; also branded Dingtian). Defines the reader↔server HTTP protocol — the missing piece the datasheet omitted. Files at QRCode_sdk - QRCode_v1_6_5/sdk/ (config tool QRCode_v1_6_5.exe, demos in C#/PHP/VC++, protocol docs readme.txt, qrcode_HTTP_GET.txt, VC++/how to.txt). Not copied into raw/ — bulky + binaries; this summary is the faithful capture. Entity: gee-qr-er80.

The protocol — HTTP GET poll, server replies the verdict

The reader is configured (via the Windows tool) with a server IP/port + "server language" (JSP/PHP/C#/ASP/CGI — this only selects the URL path, e.g. /qa/mcardsea.php; transport is plain HTTP either way). On each scan the reader sends:

GET /qa/mcardsea.php?cardid=445D2C&mjihao=1&cjihao=HW256097&status=11&time=1540402036 HTTP/1.0
Param Meaning
cardid the scanned QR/barcode data (or card id)
mjihao device id (machine number)
cjihao device serial number
status 2 chars: high = valid 1/invalid 0 (reader's own pre-check), low = direction 1=in / 0=out. A 1-char status = fail.
time UTC time

Server → reader reply (JSON) — this is the access DECISION and drives the beep + output:

{"data":[{"cardid":"<echo>","cjihao":0,"mjihao":1,"status":1,"time":"<utc>","output":2}],"code":0,"message":""}
Reply field Meaning (from the C# demo comments)
status 1 = valid → buzzer 2×; 0 = invalid → buzzer 1×
output 0 = Access, 1 = WG26, 2 = WG34 — output line/format driven on a valid read
time UTC — can sync the device clock
code 0 = success

Implication (explains the "no beep"): the reader's beep/accept is decided by the server's reply, not locally. A non-JSON / missing reply ⇒ no valid feedback ⇒ no beep, even though the scan succeeded. So "no beep" ≠ "didn't scan" — it means the server didn't answer with the verdict.

Integration consequence

This is host-in-the-loop, synchronous: the GET is the access query; our JSON reply is the decision. So the backend endpoint must decide (valid/invalid + direction) and reply — richer than a fire-and-forget read. Direction comes from the status low digit. See gee-qr-er80 + device-input-flow.

Defaults / misc

  • Default device IP 192.168.1.99 (readme.txt).
  • Demos: PHP qa/mcardsea.php (minimal echo, status 0), C# raw-socket server on :80 (full parse), VC++ raw HTTP example. All show the same GET-in / JSON-out contract.
