Application modules are available as stand-alone systems or can be deployed in any combination to deliver a single integrated solution.
Open Architecture Design
Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies is committed to open architecture protocols. Our systems have been designed in accordance with computer industry standards and support commercial off-the-shelf technologies for:
- Operating systems (Microsoft Windows 2000/XP)
- Database platforms (Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2 Universal Server, and Oracle Server)
- User directories (MS Active Directory and LDAP)
- Networks (Ethernet)
- Report generators (Crystal Reports™)
- Administration utilities (for system backups and fault tolerance)
The Card Access Control System can exchange data with ODBC compliant systems (human resources, time and attendance and ERP systems). It supports peripheral devices with industry standard communication drivers, including credential printers (Nisca, Eltron, Ultra), network connectivity devices (Lantronix) and card readers (magnetic stripe, Wiegand, proximity, bar code, smart card and biometric).
Seamless Integration
The Card Access Control System uses a single database server and a single user interface for the various applications, allowing those application modules to seamlessly integrate with one another. The system application software can be configured and managed from a single administrative workstation, and event activity can be monitored from a single alarm monitoring workstation.
Distributed Network Architecture
Card Access Control Systems use distributed network architecture that allows client workstations and intelligent field controllers to be placed directly on the existing network. All local access decisions are made and processed at the field panels, minimizing network traffic and providing real time access determinations. System administration, monitoring and video display can be performed at any client workstation on the network.
