Instead, the AEC uses standard browsers (e.g, Netscape, Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox) and works on any operating system, including Mac and Windows.
It's a network-ready system that connects easily to any TCP/IP network via an Ethernet port and operates over any Ethernet network (e.g, LAN, WAN or VPN).
Remote connection can also be established with a standard dial-up serial modem.
The AEC solution is easy to program and manage, and any client computer in the network can access it to manage the database, monitor activity or control devices.
The system offers an open architecture, interfaces with standard Wiegand readers and includes these special features:.
* Log-on access rights - All user IDs and passwords are protected with security encryption allowing access into the AEC to monitor, control, and manage the system parameters, transaction records, and activities.
* Superior privacy masking and sector blanking - Keeps sensitive or restricted areas hidden from view.
* Internet e-mail (SMTP) and Short Message Service (SMS) support - The AEC can send out e-mails based on triggered events or transactions under normal or alarm conditions.
Each mail message consists of a full description of the event or alarm, location, ID and date/time stamp.
E-mail can be sent to multiple recipients or relayed as Short Message Service (SMS) to mobile phone users via certified modems.
This function provides an unlimited means of selectable information transfer.
Additional AEC system features include:.
* Access control using a card reader or a card reader plus PIN code.
* In/Out readers (anti-pass back) for high security areas.
* Intrusion alarm input point monitoring.
* Arm or disarm AEC alarm zones using a card reader.
* Manual door control.
* Automatic door control based on schedules.
* Automatic arming and disarming of input point.
* Output control based on schedules.
* Special scheduling options for holidays.
* Built-in reporting capabilities.
* Attendance capturing.
* User dial-in support.
* Input/Output logic programming for control automation.
* Real-time activities and status update.
An initial four- or eight-door AEC system can expand quickly and easily to cover 16 doors.
Each AEC system has options for up to 32 input points and 32 output relays that can be software configured.
With the addition of the Access Easy Master Controller (AEMC), users can connect to 20 AEC systems for expansion to 320 doors, 640 inputs and 640 relay outputs.
The system is currently available in English, and a Spanish language version will be available soon.
