The AMC-4W can communicate upstream to the host computer via eight
RS485 multi-dropped, RS232 or 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet. It has eight analog
input devices and eight relay outputs. With its analog input devices, the
AMC-4W verifies, for example, if a lock is closed or open. The relay outputs
can be used to activate lock mechanisms if access is granted, or activate an
external alarm system if an intrusion or system alert is detected.
The AMC-4W provides an IP protocol stack completely developed by Bosch.
There are no third party operating systems and there is no vulnerability by
viruses. The AMC-4W electronic is completely covered by a plastic housing.
The LC Display provides all important status information. The setup procedure
for an AMC-4W is very simple and extremely fast by the use of door templates.
Once selected, all the inputs and outputs are predefined.
Using the AMC-4W gives you the full functionality and the offline capability
of a complete access control system on each room. This leads to an excellent
reliability and a very high redundancy without paying extra money.
