Before installing the door controller, you should be
aware of how it is going to be administered. The
controller can operate in one of two ways, either as a
master or as a slave providing the following
administration options:
Operating as a master, the door controller can be
administered:
• From the door controller's own faceplate,
controlling up to 16 doors , 4 on board plus up
to 3 slave door controllers.
• From a PC running Readykey for Windows
administration software via a PC interface kit.
This can control up to 32 doors - 1 master door
controller plus up to 7 slave door controllers
(Readykey for Windows is supplied with
different door license configurations).
• From a PC running Readykey for Windows
administration software via a Readykey Central
Network Controller (CNC) using a RS-232 serial
link, can control up to 32 doors - 8 slave door
controllers. This can also accommodate up to
128 (dial-up) remote sites.
Operating as a slave, the door controller can be
administered:
• From another Readykey K2200 Series Controller
configured as a master.
• From a PC running Readykey for Windows
administration software via a Readykey Central
Network Controller (CNC) or an PC
Administration Kit.
2.2.2 Components
The door controller itself is made up of 4 individual
components:
Secured to the metal base plate are the 110/240 V
power supply and main circuit board. Fitted to the
main circuit board is a secondary “cover” board
which protects the main board and has a label which
identifies the various connectors on the main board.
Attached to this is the memory module containing
the software and database memory. Across the whole
unit is a removable faceplate with built-in key
reader, keypad and display.
All connections are made to the door controller using
removable terminal blocks.
Note:
All controllers are available without a faceplate.
However, at least one faceplate is required to configure
the controllers in the system.
2.2.3 Readers
A reader is a device, usually installed close to the
door, that detects the unique code in a key and
passes it to the door controller where the access
decision is made. There are several types of reader
suitable for different purposes and environments.
Note:
You can have two Readykey readers on the one reader
channel, i.e. an in and out reader. However, if the
reader output is in a Wiegand or Magstripe format, you
can only have one reader on each reader channel.
Readykey Low Profile Reader
A reader suitable for interior or exterior use.
Readykey Vandal Resistant Reader
A stainless steel or brass reader particularly suitable
for exterior use, where resistance to abuse is
important.
Readykey Panel Mount Reader
A reader designed for mounting in a steel panel, such
as a door entry system.
Readykey PIN Reader
This device requires a PIN number to be entered as
well as a key to be presented, as an extra level of
security. The need to use a PIN as well as a key can
be controlled using a time profile.
Readykey Slimline Reader
This device is a slimline version of the standard plus
reader, suitable for mounting on door frames, etc.
Magstripe Reader
This device converts the code in the magnetic stripe
to a format recognizable by the door controller. The
door controller supports Magstripe cards which are
encoded according to ISO 3554, Track 2.
Note
: Only one Magstripe reader can be
connected to each channel.
Wiegand Reader
The door controller supports most standard 26-bit
Wiegand formats
Note:
Only one Wiegand reader can be connected to each
channel.
2.2.4 Door Controllers
The door controller is the heart of the access control
system and it:
• Decides whether a person has access at a
particular door and at a particular time.
• Provides power to operate the lock.
• Monitors doors for unauthorized access or door
left open.
