PC (HOST)
• Runs software• Connection point for devices• Specific Location (?)• Licensed• Database Engine

CONTROLLER
• Stores system configuration• Stores card database• Connects to upstream PC Host• Connects to devices downstream• Makes Access Decisions

READER INTERFACE
• Stores card database (sometimes)• Connects to upstream controller• Connects to readers downstream• Physical connections for door hardware (lock, EPB, door contact)

READER (STANDARD)
• Reads credential information• Wiegand protocol• Connects to upstream reader interface

READER (INTELLIGENT)
• Combination of reader interface and Reader• Serial connection to controller

ALARM PANEL
• Connects to upstream controller• Connects to sensors and signal devices or other systems
downstream• Inputs & Outputs

What about…?• What kind of PCs are recommended.
• What is the minimum hardware configuration for an ACS?
• How do I know which type of readers to choose.
