Anyone else seeing RFPs that flatly reject Wiegand? In two audits this month, both clients required OSDP Secure Channel and proof of credential rotation at commissioning; if you’re still quoting legacy readers, build a phase-out plan and a verification step so it doesn’t slip through.
And on locksmith sites, autoplay’s rarely worth the SEO trade. Use a poster + click-to-play, or at minimum go muted, preload=metadata, set width/height to stop CLS, and disable it on mobile; sanity-check with Web Vitals | Articles | web.dev. If anyone’s seen rankings improve from “autoplay elements,” @devs, I’ll happily eat my words.
We turned this into a commissioning gate: reader must open OSDP Secure Channel, rotate the SCBK on site, and show no Wiegand output; if it fails, we auto-sub an OSDP reader and note it in closeout. > “build a phase-out plan” — agree, but small caveat: some older panels say OSDP but won’t do SC; which boards have burned you?
We cut most SST clot delays by retraining on strict order‑of‑draw and adding a small discard tube before the SST when starting a butterfly — EDTA/heparin carryover was the hidden culprit. It won’t solve true anticoag cases, so we flag those orders and extend the hold per policy; appreciate @natalie_f64 nudging the focus on pre‑spin handling.
