Intelligent Door Controller

The Intelligent Door Controller (IDC) provides access control in the same way as the current FASE system but with the added benefit of distributed intelligence. It can be used as a totally autonomous door controller or as part of a system combining distributed intelligence with existing global capabilities.

Features:

• 1 or 2 reader inputs; bar code, magnetic stripe or proximity
• 1 or 2 relays rated 24v/2A maximum for door locks
• 2 led outputs associated with each reader
• 1 buzzer output associated with each reader
• 1 or 2 DTMF pin pad inputs
• 2 alarm outputs; open collector transistors rated 20v/100mA maximum
• Up to 7 inputs; opto-isolated rated 12v/5mA typical, 20v/12mA max. Internal power supply or fully isolated
• 1 tamper switch input - mechanical switch(s) on inside of lid/case
• Choice of communications interface - 2-wire floating RS485, Ethernet or Token Ring
• Choice of mains or DC power supply, with or without UPS
• Address range for 32 doors

Storage Capacity:

• 32 time profiles
• 100 access groups
• 1 door profile per door
• 8 PIN entries per door

Physical:

The case is constructed in 2 parts. The rear is plated steel and contains all of the electronics and cable access points. The front cover is also steel, and is painted grey. It is secured to the rear with 2 front facing screws only, so that the case may be located with its top and side edges close to obstructions such as a ceiling or side wall. The unit weighs about 2kg and can take up to 6 cable entry points, from either the bottom or the rear of the unit. It is designed to be wall mounted using 3 or 4 screws. Removal of the front cover will immediately activate a tamper switch. With the cover removed the internal components are easily accessible, and all signal cables are connected using IMO plug-on screw terminals.

Power Supply:

Power connection is via a fused screw terminal block. The circuit requires a power supply of 12v at between 400mA and 2A, depending on the current needed for door locks, readers and other equipment. An internal 230v mains power supply rated at 1.7A will normally be fitted. A DC version is available for use with an external 12v power supply, including inexpensive "lump-in-line" and battery backed UPS.

Door Lock Interface:

Door locks are controlled from a relay. They may be wired to fail "closed" or "open". The internal 12v power supply can be used to power the lock or, alternatively, the relay can be used as a "volt- free" switch for use with an external door lock power supply. The standard 12v power supply can provide enough current for 2 typical 250mA - 500mA locks.

Media Interface:

• Bar Code (wand emulation signal output)
• Magnetic Stripe (clock and data signal output)
• Proximity* (clock and data signal output)
• Wiegand (26 Bit)
• Pin Pad (DTMF signal output)
