The FingerTec Ingressus door access controller comes in 3 versions, Ingressus 1 (1 door version), Ingressus II (2 door version) and Ingressus IV (4 door
version). Ingressus provides a computerized central control access control
system to secure the environment. Ingressus can store fingerprints, password and card ID of every user. It justifies accessibilities of every user according to the data/settings configured in it.
The Ingressus connects with slave readers to build a complete access control system to guard entry-exit of a premise. The slave readers can be either
RS485 readers (reader to capture fingerprints and card ID from users) or Wiegand readers (reader to capture card ID and password from users). RS485
reader connects to Ingressus via RS485 network (multi-drop), for example
R2c. Ingressus I supports 2 units of RS485 Reader, while the Ingressus II can
support 4 units. The RS485 network of RS485 Reader shall link to the RS485
port of the Ingressus. Ingressus I supports 2 units of Wiegand Reader while
Ingressus II supports up to 4 units. Each Wiegand Reader, for example i-Kadex and k-Kadex, connects to the Wiegand port of Ingressus (max 4 ports,
Wiegand 1, 2, 3 and 4).

Ingressus I supports up to 2 sets of door locks (1 door); Ingressus II supports
up to 4 sets of door locks (2 doors) and Ingressus IV supports up to 8 sets of
door locks (4 doors).

Ingressus can support 2 types of door lock output, either wet contact
or dry contact. For wet contact, Ingressus can output power to the door
lock system. You can supply additional power supply this is suitable with
the door lock system to Ingressus the maximum is 12VDC 3A. For dry
contact, Ingressus outputs relay signal to door lock system. You must
install an independent power supply to the door lock system. Ingressus will only output relay signal to the door lock system to unlock/lock
it. Dry contact is a more secure installation because door lock systems
have their own power supply, it remains working even though Ingressus
is powered down.
Ingressus II and IV can support AUX input and output. You can install
sensors/detectors for example smoke detector as AUX input and alarm
as AUX output. When the smoke sensor triggers, Ingressus will trigger
the alarm to alert all users. You can configure in Ingress software to unlock all doors in case of fire or smoke detected. See the technical specifications to learn the kinds of AUX input/output available.
The Ingressus comes with its management software, Ingress. Ingress
stores a copy of user information and entry-exit records in PC/server.
An administrator can always update user information and restriction of
access to every Ingressus. An administrator can preview and print useful
reports to check entry-exit of each user. Ingress also works as a monitoring station for all connected Ingressus to enhance security levels of the
environment.
Ingressus provides 2 types of communications to Ingress. You can link
up multiple units of Ingressus by using RS485 network or using TCP/IP
(LAN) to a single Ingress. With Ingress, you can now have all entry-exit
control of all users on a server for easy management.
