Access control systems & kits (537)

The DRI provides a local interface between an Advanced Central Controller (ACC) and up to 2 card readers installed as entry and exit readers for a single door. This allows the DRI to receive information regarding the identity of a cardholder requesting entry or exit at a locked door and then sends the identification data to the ACC for processing. When a cardholder presents their access card at an entry or exit reader (connected to a DRI), the DRI interprets the encoded information and sends this data to the ACC. The ACC then checks the validity of the cardholder. If the appropriate permissions have been assigned, the ACC then sends a message back to the DRI allowing it to unlock the door and provide passage.

To further increase freedom of movement within access control systems, Bewator have introduced a range of proximity readers to enable contactless access. A built-in keypad offers the possibility of combined access control with both a card and a PIN for higher security. Two versions are available - one as a stand-alone application and another as a reader head for other access control systems. Its robust metal casing protects the reader against tampering and vandalism.

One of the reasons for the flexibility of Siemens SiPass access control systems is the comprehensive range of readers and reading technologies available which includes everything from magstripe readers to hands-free loop readers, ensuring options to fit a multitude of environments and security levels. Tested and qualified for use with SiPass systems, the readers and cards also work with virtually any access control system on the market. Cotag Cotag is a proprietary Siemens technology which can read both active (long-range) and passive (proximity) cards and tags, allowing both to be mixed within a single system. For applications such as hospitals or warehouses, or where the disabled may have difficulty presenting proximity tags to readers, the battery embedded within Cotag active cards can offer a truly hands-free access control environment. Smart card With cards increasingly being used to perform a number of different functions, Siemens' Smart Card option offers the storage capacity to hold additional data. This means they can be used beyond just their access control function; they can also be used as a cash card at company restaurants or vending machines, for example. The capability to store biometric data, such as fingerprint templates, makes this a particularly effective option for high security applications. 125 kHz proximity Since proximity cards only need to be held near the reader rather than swiped, the lifetime of the card is extended due to reduced wear and tear in a system which offers increased security compared to magstripe technology. Some of Siemens 125 kHz proximity readers support the SiPass algorithm which offers a higher level of security than conventional 125 kHz. Magnetic stripe Cards which are swiped through a slot on a reader are the least expensive option and are largely employed when extending a system which already uses magnetic stripe technology. Communication protocols SiPass readers communicate with the door controllers either via standard reader protocols or via Siemens own proprietary reader protocols - BC-Link and CerPass/UCI (RS485). The Siemens proprietary protocols are bi-directional so they can be used for buzzer control, LED feed-back and arming/disarming of an intrusion area. Installation is also faster as less wiring is required. -Link and CerPass/UCI also provide constant monitoring of reader status and higher security levels compared to standard protocols. To view the entire range, please see the new Siemens SiPass Readers and Cards brochure.

Vanderbilt (formerly known as Siemens Security Products) 633-2 is a cotag programmer that enables individual requirements for programming active and passive Cotag cards and tags. It makes it possible to program small batches or individual cards and can be used to create configuration cards to set up any Cotag readers. The programmer can also be configured for an end user‚ so that the customer himself has local control over card issuing.

The ACT 56k Modem allows access to ACT controllers (ACT2000 and ACT1000) over the telephone line. ACTWinPro can configure and monitor sites many miles away from the PC. This modem must be used at both the controller end and the PC end. The modem comes with pre-configured for ACT Controller operation and with cables for connecting to the controller. The modem may also be connected to a RS-485 interface to control more than one controller. Software is also provided to allow easy installation at the PC.
