Door Controllers
The Door Controller is the heart of the access control system, these are its main functions:
•
Decides whether a person has access at a particular door and at a particular time.
•
Provides power to operate the lock.
•
Monitors doors for unauthorized access or left open.
•
Automatically opens and closes doors at certain times.
•
Detects tamper conditions at the reader or its own enclosure.
•
Monitors any K2015 Alarm Modules for extra alarm inputs.
•
Operates relays, either those connected to the Door Controller itself, or on a K2015
Alarm Module.
The K2100 may have 4 readers connected, the K1100 may have 2 readers connected. In
all other respects both door controllers are identical.
Connecting Door Controllers
What makes these door controllers so flexible is the ability to link controllers together to
allow more than 4 doors to be administered. When programmed from the front panel, as
described in this document, up to 16 doors can be controlled and up to 4000 personnel
administered.
In all cases one door controller (K2100 or K1100) is the
Master
controller, up to 3 further
door controllers are
Slaves
. All administration and reporting occurs at the Master
controller. Apart from some initial setup functions,
no
administration activity occurs at the
slave controllers.

K2015 Alarm Modules
K2015 Alarm Modules are optional devices that allow extra points (or zones) to be
monitored and report alarms if activated. Each Alarm Module has 8 points that can be
enabled and disabled manually or automatically at certain times.
The K2015 Alarm Modules also have 4 relay outputs that can be activated by alarm inputs,
system events such as door left open, or at certain times.
