Proximity access control system

July 2002 Access Control & Identity Management

The new IXP 200 from Impro Access Control supports up to 2000 tags operating either 16 doors or 15 doors and up to four lifts.

The IXP 200 has a wide range of features including 16 anti-passback zones with anti-passback lockout and three anti-passback modes (off, relaxed, strict), intrusion alarm and alarm panel arming facilities and uncomplicated building management features. In addition, the system caters for daily door mode patterns to determine the access status of a particular door at a given time (eg tag required, locked, open, etc), and access patterns, to specify which tag can open which door and when.

For extra security, the IXP 200 comes with four tag levels - Administrator, Supervisor, Normal and Visitor, and the system can be set up to allow for a dual tag option, whereby two tags have to be used within a predefined time to open a door.

A modular system, the IXP 200 has a choice of readers to allow users to select tag only, tag and PIN code, or tag, PIN code and 'reason for access' code. Readers can come with a clear LCD display for messages; up to 256 predefined messages can be set, which can be linked to tags. With the readers that feature a keypad, duress codes are programmable to enable and alarm to be raised from the reader if a person has been forced to open a door.

The IXP 200 comes with free Windows-based software and can be operated both on and off-line. It can be integrated with third party software to allow for time triggered actions, such as turning lights and heating on. These events, as well as the most recent 8000 transactions, are all digitally recorded on the IXP 200 system for an accurate log.
