Access Modular Controller 2 Short information | en 7

2 Short information

This controller is able to control up to four Wiegand card readers. It is designed to fully process the access logic at assigned access points. Access points consist of doors, gates, barriers, turn stiles, revolving doors, mantraps, ID card readers, door opening elements and sensors.

All the product versions use encrypted connections between the access modular controller and the host system.

The controller stores all necessary information in a battery-buffered memory and in a compact flash storage element. Even when the unit is offline, it is able to perform: – Independent status and authorization checks on access points – Take access decisions – Activate and deactivate connected peripheral elements – Detect and register all relevant events

The Access Modular Controller (AMC) is supported by the Access Professional Edition (APE), BIS Access Engine (ACE) and the Access Management System (AMS).

3 Introduction

3.1 Description

The controller is equipped with four independent interfaces for Wiegand type readers. It is able to control two doors with one reader in each direction and up to four doors with a reader in one direction only.

Figure3.1: Access Modular Controller

All necessary information for access verification is stored in a battery buffered on-board memory and a Compact Flash (CF) memory card. This guarantees autonomous access decisions and complete access registrations even if the management host system is offline. The built in compact flash adapter provides adequate storage capability for cardholders and events.

The electronics of the controller are completely covered by a plastic housing. The LCD (liquid crystal display) provides all important status information.

Bosch Security Systems B.V.

Access Modular Controller 2 Introduction | en 9

The controller can communicate upstream to the host computer using RS-485 multi-dropped or Ethernet. It has eight analog input devices and eight relay outputs. With its analog input devices, the controller verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open. The relay outputs can be used, for example, to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or activate the burglar alarm system if an intrusion or system alert is detected. If the eight inputs and eight outputs on the board are not enough to configure the system, up to three additional extension boards can be connected. The extensions offer 8 or 16 additional inputs and outputs. In the Bosch Access Host Systems the setup procedure for a controller is made very simple and fast by the use of door templates. Once selected, all the inputs and outputs are predefined. These settings can be changed to choose every free contact of the controller or a connected extension.

3.3 System overview

The controller is connected to the host system via RS485 or Ethernet, depending on the type of installation. The host interface is selected during installation. The four interfaces are available on the device by default. With RS485 operation, a maximum of eight access controllers can be connected to one party line.

Figure3.7: Example

1 Host computer

2 Access Modular Controller

3 Card reader

4 Communication and power supply

In the communication chain of a system, the access controller is integrated between the host system and the peripheral devices. It is possible to connect up to four readers to the access modular controller.

4 Installing

4.1 Mounting the device on a mounting rail

The controller can be attached on a standard 35mm (1.377in.) mounting rail using a snap-in mechanism. Attach the controller into the upper edge of the mounting rail [1], then push down the device and snap it onto the rail by pushing it towards the back [2].

Figure4.1: Mounting the controller on a mounting rail

4.2 Unmounting the device from a mounting rail

Notice!

To remove the controller from a mounting rail, first remove all pluggable connectors.

Push down the controller until the lower edge snaps out of the mounting rail [1]. Pull the lower end of the controller from the mounting rail [2].

4.3 Opening the case

Notice!

To open the controller, first remove all pluggable connectors.

The controller’s case consists of a top cover mounted with a two-point snap-in closure on a chassis. To open the case, push down the two snap-ins with a screwdriver, then swing the cover down.

Access Modular Controller 2 Installing | en 17

4.4 Closing the case

Before aligning the covers, unplug any pluggable screw connectors. Insert the hooks on the lower edge of the front cover into the lugs on lower edge of the plastic back cover [1]. Please ensure that the BOSCH logo is not upside-down. The upper edge of the front cover now aligns with the two-point snap-in closures on the upper edge of the back cover [2], and may thus be clicked gently into place. Hence the closing process is the reverse of the opening process.

Figure4.4: Closing the case

Notice!

Risk of damage to equipment If excessive force is required to close the front cover then it is probably incorrectly hooked into the back cover. In such cases the display dialog button in the front cover will be misaligned and will not function correctly.
