UMD Model 529A
UMD VAST™ Standard Validator


The UMD Model 529 (M529) Standard Validator is part of the UMD VAST™ lineup of Validators used for scanning tickets or NFC tags to enable patron entry to venues or attractions.

The Validator is cloud-connected to the UMD VAST™ access control and ticketing system and optionally controls ingress and egress via a connected turnstile, gate or other physical barriers.

The M529 Validator can be integrated with almost any barrier system and uses solid-state relay outputs for activation of the barrier.†

The Validator allows patrons to scan their ticket barcode or tap their NFC passes to gain entry to the venue or to record their presence at the venue via the UMD VAST™ cloud service.

A key feature of the M529 Validator is the inclusion of a 7” high-brightness LCD for displaying instructions and responses to the patrons as well as streaming video for patron information or advertising.

Mounting of the M529 is to a wall adjacent to the venue entry and requires power and a wired LAN connection to operate. This design allows easy access for installation and maintenance.
