Standalone access controllers

May 2001 Access Control & Identity Management

ControlSoft's AC-310x series of standalone two and four-door access controllers can control proximity scanners, clocking terminals, PIN keypads, remote I/O units and display units connected to a RS485 interface.

The AC-3104 supports a maximum of eight proximity readers, enabling full anti-passback control of four doors or control of up to eight doors without anti-passback. The AC-3104 features eight digital outputs and eight digital inputs.

The AC-3102 system controller can support up to eight RS485 devices, of which four may be scanners. It can control two doors with full anti-passback or up to four doors without anti-passback. Like the AC-3104, it provides eight digital outputs and eight digital inputs.

AC-310x controllers are configured using KeyMaster Lite software. They maintain full access control functionality even when the software is not running or the PC is off-line
