Description
The 3GS Access Control node provides an interface to control door access on the 3GS. The node is a two door
controller with capacity for four readers (two entry and two exit) and two exit switches. The ACN has its own
monitored PSU suitable for powering readers. The reader technology supported is Weigand and Clock and Data,
allowing for proximity, swipe, pin and proximity, and pin and swipe readers. It also allows for one BCD pinpad.
The ACN monitors two alarm zone inputs, two door inputs, and has two system outputs as well as two door outputs.
See Access System Overview in 3GS Programming for further information.
Enhanced ACN
The Enhanced Access Control node provides double the capacity of the ACN, with a 4 door controller capacity and 8
eight relay outputs that can be configured as 4 locks and 4 assignable codes. The enhanced ACN uses on-board ferrites
for improved ringnet noise immunity, and 5V and 12V outputs with resettable PTZ fuses to power card readers, and an
upgradeable flash memory chip.
