Standalone electronic access control cuts costs to one third

November '99 Access Control & Identity Management

Ilco Unican's new Solitaire 850L is an intelligent standalone electronic lock that installers or end users can program quickly and easily using specially designed LearnLok cards. A cost-effective solution for facilities not requiring wired access control systems, users can have most of the benefits of a full-featured system at a reasonable installed price. No computers, software or programming modules are required.

With the Solitaire 850L, employees can even use their own credit cards or bank cards to access their facility, relieving organisations of the need to constantly order and track cards. If later required, the lock can easily be upgraded to a full-featured system without removing it from the door.

"We have eliminated all the computer tools but kept system benefits such as a proprietary facility code, multi-level access, lockouts, emergency overrides, passage flexibilities and audit trails," emphasises Michael Kincaid, Ilco Unican Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Access Control Systems.

To program, installers or security personnel simply swipe LearnLok cards through the reader along with the user's own personal card. The Solitaire 850L can be programmed with up to 200 users. Engineered to comply with ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 standards and tested to UL/ULC standards, the all-weather lock is powered by four standard AA alkaline batteries. Both mortise and cylindrical models are available.

A LearnLok starter pack includes a quick reference guide, user log, programming cards, user cards and cancel cards.
