Introduction
Access Control Overview
Access Control is the selective restriction to a place or resource such as a property, building or room to authorized persons and is a matter of who, where, and when. An access control system is used to automate access control using credentials, credential readers, electric door locks and other devices. Administrators configure the system to determine who is allowed to enter or exit, where they are allowed to exit or enter, and when they are allowed to enter or exit. When access is granted, the door is unlocked for a predetermined time and transaction is recorded. When access is denied, the door remains locked and the attempted access is recorded. Administrators can then run reports on the recorded transactions to review activity for selected dates and times.
System Overview
Controller models are available in variety of configurations starting from 1 Door models that require a separate power supply to 2 & 4 Door models that include an integrated power supply for the controller and door lock power. Most models can be upgraded after installation with enhanced features, such as enhanced reporting or more users, using software license keys. All controllers include tamper and power fault inputs, in and out readers, request to exit and door position inputs for each door and auxiliary inputs and outputs. All controllers are designed to be connected to a network using an Ethernet RJ45 connector and configured using the integrated web server.
Controllers can be configured as either a server or a client. All systems require a server controller. Some systems have the ability to add additional client controllers to increase the number of doors, inputs or outputs or control elevators. The software license key is used by the controller to determine if it is a server or a client. After logging in, the license information about a can be determined by clicking on the license icon at the bottom of the web page.
Certain models offer a mobile APP that can be used to setup and configure, view logs, lock and unlock doors and activate threat levels. In addition, some systems also offers a cloud service that provides a portal where a users or dealer can log into and manage one or many systems securely.
Client controllers communicate with the server controller via the local area network and are configured through the server using a web browser on a PC connected to the network. Once the server or client controller is configured, they will function without a network connection or the PC. The network and PC is only required for setup, configuration and reporting.
