PRX-40B
1. Introduction
This manual deals with the PRX-40/B Proximity Access controller, one of Synel's series of compact
contactless proximity units.
PRX-40/B is a stand-alone unit developed as a compact easy-to-use proximity terminal, to be installed at
strategic locations in order to grant access to secure zones.
The PRX-40/B operates in various unit settings, according to the specific security level required to access
a specific area.
This aesthetically designed device is made of strong ABS plastic, and can be installed just about anywhere,
as a stand-alone contactless terminal or together with a master controller, connected to up to 16 reader
units. The IP44 enclosure protects the unit from water splashes and makes the PRX-40/B ideal for exposed
environments that can easily damage standard unprotected terminals.
Setting the PRX-40/B for maximum security is simple and is enabled by use of an eight digit code, chosen
by the customer. Additional access controls have been incorporated to greatly improve security.
When working in online mode (as with a Master unit) PRX-40/B uploads data from the from the other
units to it’s internal memory, thus not relaying on an
uninterrupted connection to external units.
Activation of the unit is performed when a card is held a few centimeters from the unit.
PRX-40/B can grant secure access for up to 3800 card holders, stored in an authorized list within the
controller. This list is created and edited directly in the unit's compact keyboard, eliminating the need of
connecting to a computer.
In addition, PRX-40/B can maintain a list of authorized and unauthorized employees
