Continental's family of Controllers
provides fully true distributed processing, capable of performing all
Access Control functions for one to eight doors. Any member of this
family (Superterm, Smarterm, Miniterm and Microterm) may be
networked together in a plug-and-play fashion to create a fully
expandable system by using Continental's CardAccess 495 host software
(a Windows platform) designed for use on a compatible PC.
These controllers can use virtually all
types of card reading technologies without the need for additional
interface boards or modules. Controllers can store multiple badge
formats in memory, allowing for use with existing card populations and
readers. For efficiency, each controller's memory can be configured to
meet on-site requirements. The size of the transaction buffer and card
holder database may be adjusted from the host PC to tailor the memory
requirements to the specific application.
Continental Instruments controllers
automatically up-load transactions as they occur and may also
communicate with the host PC using standard voice-grade telephone lines
and external modems. This dual dial-up capability allows each controller
to store transactions and up-load automatically when memory approaches
capacity or a priority alarm occurs (user-programmed). The host PC may
also periodically dial a controller to maintain the system integrity.
