1.9.1 Design Function
The IEI prox.pad plus Access System provides card
and/or keypad access control for a single door. The
unit can be installed in a one-stage configuration
(which is typical for most users), or a higher security,
two-stage (or “remote”) configuration.
In the “secure” (or remote) configuration, the antenna
can be detached and mullion-mounted up to a maxi-
mum of 10 feet away from the controller/keypad. For
installation details, see section 2.4.3.
The prox.pad plus unit is compatible with all HID
proximity cards, with up to 40 bits. Batch programming
without the need for the card can be done only with
26-bit HID cards. All programming is performed using
the built-in keypad.
The prox.pad plus unit is equipped with RS-485 com-
munications, which allows the system to be managed
with a personal computer using Hub Manager
TM
Pro-
fessional software (ver. 5 or higher). This capability
allows the unit to store up to 8 timezones, including
auto-unlock, and a maximum of 32 holidays. In addi-
tion, the unit can store up to 2,000 transactions.
The keypad can store up to 2,000 users.
The specific types of users that can be programmed
with the prox.pad plus unit are listed in Table 1-1 on
page 1-8.
For convenience, proximity cards can be programmed
efficiently in a “batch” mode. A user-programmable
lock time of 1-255 seconds plus a “latch/toggle” mode
are included.
