Introduction

A basic card access system consists of an access card, a card reader and a card access controller.

The interface between the card readers and the controller is a ‘Wiegand interface”. The Wiegand interface is a serial interface and requires 7 to 10 conductors to communicate between the reader and the controller, the reader gets power from the controller from the same interface which is 12V.

Each “Wiegand” compatible access card has 26 to 50 bits of information embedded onto the card by the manufacturer. Whenever a card is presented at the reader, the reader registers the information on the card and sends it back to the controller in a serial bit stream. The controller then decides what to do with this information depending on the configuration of the system.

The Mircom card access system consists of a maximum of 31 card access controllers networked together. Each card access controller can have two card readers. The Mircom system provides battery backup and a real time clock. The card access system can be integrated with the TX3 Telephone Access system by utilizing a common network for both telephone access and card access systems.

The card access system uses the PC for configuration and on-line monitoring of the card access and the telephone access status and once the system is configured, the PC is not required.

The card access controller is connected to the card readers (a maximum of two) as shown in Figure 1 below:

Figure 1: Basic Card Access System

The maximum distance between the card access controller and the card readers is 500 feet. The card access system can have up to 31 card access controllers networked together.

Input Wiring

Active Input StatesThe active input state can be configured as one of the following: Open or Short (default)

There are some restrictions in configuring the active input state depending on what kind of supervision is required.

• If the input is not supervised the active can be either “open” or “close”

• If the input is supervised for “open” the active state cannot be “open”

• If the input is supervised for both “open” and “short” the active state cannot be “open”

No SupervisionWhen inputs are configured with no supervision, the active state can be either “open” or “short”

With Supervision

Supervise for openWhen configured as supervised for open, the active state is “closed (short)”. A single 47K ohm resistor is used for open supervision

Supervise for shortWhen configured as supervised for short, the active state can be either “open” or “short”. A single 47K ohm resistor is required for short supervision

Supervise for open and shortWhen configured as supervise for both “open” and “short”, the active state cannot be open, therefore the active

Card Access Controller Operation

Card Access Controller LEDsThere are three status LEDs on the Card Access Controller Panel.

AC ON LED - is a green LED which is illuminated steady when AC power is present.

Trouble LED - is an amber LED which flashes at the slow flash rate when there is a common trouble in the system. Troubles consist of any supervised input, AC and power, and door held open warning.

Alarm LED - is a red LED which is flashes at a fast flash rate when there is a forced entry or the door has been held open.

Card Reader BeeperThe beeper is used to indicate specific events with different beeps. The following are the events and their associated beep rates.

Access Granted - two short beeps.

Access Denied - one short beep and one long beep.

Mode of Operation Changed - three short beeps.

Alarm - continuous short beeps.

Modes of Operations

Lock/Unlock ModeThe access point can be in the lock or unlock mode. When the access point is in the lock mode, the door is normally locked and any valid card will be granted access and the door unlocks for the duration of the door unlock timer or the extended door open timer. During this mode, the red LED on the card reader will be steady green for the duration the door remains unlocked.

High Security ModeDuring high security mode, only cards with high security privileges can be granted access.

PC Decision ModeDuring this mode, the decision to grant access is transferred to the personal computer (PC). The PC can then grant or deny access to the user. Only a valid card can send a request message to the PC for access.

Facility Code ModeThis mode is designed for new installations, where all access cards are not programmed into the database. During this mode the cards with the same facility code as programmed into the controller will be granted access. Since there is no card data, the door is unlocked for the standard door unlock timer. This mode can be configured for each access point.

Card Plus Pin ModeThis mode is designed to provide another level of security during a certain time of day. In this mode, not only is a valid card required, but also a 4-digit pin code to allow access. The pin code is programmed for each card and should be 4 digits long. There is a schedule associated with this mode and when the schedule is active the mode is on and when the schedule is inactive the mode is off.

Anti-pass-back ModeThis mode is designed to add another level of security to prevent unauthorized users. During this mode, if a valid card is used at an access point, it cannot be re-used until a pre-programmed anti-pass-timer has expired. After expiration of the timer, the user can have access again.

Card Access Controller Operation

12

Temporary Card ModeThis mode is also designed to limit the usage for temporary cards at a given access point. During this mode, if a valid temporary card is present at the access point, the access is granted but also the usage count is decreased by 1. If the usage count reaches zero, then no access will be granted.

Interlock ModeThis mode is normally used in a double door (two separate doors) application and is designed to prevent any unauthorized user from gaining entry. In this mode, the user must pesent the access card at both doors. The second door will unlock, after presenting the card and if the first door is closed and locked.

Timers

Door Unlock TimerThis timer is started when the door is unlocked and once the time expires, the door is locked.

Extended Unlock TimerThe extended unlock timer is activated by a privileged access card. This timer extends the unlock time for people who require more time to walk through the door.

Anti-pass-back TimerThis timer is started when access is granted in anti-pass-back mode. The user is restricted from re-using his access card again until this anti-pass-back timer expires. Upon expiration, the user will have access once again.

Door Held Open Warning TimerThis door held open warning timer is started when access is granted. The door is unlocked, the door is opened, but does not get closed while the door is unlocked. Upon expiry of this time a “door held open” warning is reported to the PC and also the common trouble is activated. If the door gets closed while the timer is still timing, the timer is reset (turned off) and no warning report is sent to the PC.

Door Held Open Alarm TimerThis timer is started when the door held open warning timer expires and the door is still not closed. Upon expiration of this timer and the door is still open and the “door held open alarm” is reported to the PC, then the common alarm is activated.

SchedulesThere are a maximum of 64 schedules that can be programmed into the system. Each schedule consists of 4 periods. Each period consists of:

• a start time and end time in hours and minutes format

• weekdays, weekend and holiday selection

Each schedule has an ID and a label which identifies it. This identification can be used to call up a schedule elsewhere in the configuration.

If the current time and data satisfies any one of the 4 periods in a schedule, then the schedule is considered to be active, otherwise it is inactive.

By default there are two schedules which cannot be edited, they are “Always” schedule ID 0 and “Never” schedule ID 1.

HolidaysHolidays are actually part of a schedule and there are a maximum of 128 holidays that can be programmed into the system. Each holiday consists of a start time and date and an end time and date.

If a holiday falls on the same date each year, it can be programmed as an annual occurrence, so that the user does not have to enter it each year.

Each holiday has an ID and label which identifies it. This identification can be used to call up a holiday schedule elsewhere in the configuration. By default there are no holidays programmed into the system.

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

•Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

•Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

•Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not


14

be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

•Software

Most Mircom products contain software. With respect to those products, Mircom does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Mircom shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

•Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.
