Introduction
The Model AE-500 Telephone Entry & Access Control System is designed
for use as a primary access control device for gated communities,
parking garages, offi ce buildings, apartments, dormitories, hotels/motels,
commercial buildings and recreational facilities with up to 250 residents
or users.
Housed in a locked, rugged stainless steel faced enclosure, the AE-500
features a side-lit 12-key telephone style keypad with bright, easy-to-
read graphics, a backlit two-line directory display with a programmable
welcome message, a built-in microphone, and speaker.
The two relay output channels can be programmed to control electric
door strikes, magnetic locks, door & gate operators, or barrier gates.
The system utilizes hands-free, full duplex telephone communications
between visitors and residents for granting access.
The system can be programmed locally using the keypad, remotely with
a touch tone telephone, or remotely using a computer equipped with a
modem and a web browser.
Before starting the installation, read and understand these instructions.
Become familiar with the illustrations and wiring diagrams. They will be a
guide to installing the system in an effi cient and professional manner.
Operation
In a typical installation, the unit’s memory would be programmed with
each resident’s name and directory code number. Arriving visitors would
use the keypad on the AE-500 to view the directory names and directory
number for the desired resident. Upon entering the directory number,
the AE-500 will automatically dial the resident’s telephone number and
establish two-way voice communication between the visitor and the
resident. The resident will then have the option to grant or deny access to
the visitor by pressing a digit on their telephone.
In addition to the telephone entry, the AE-500 can grant access using
entry codes (up to 500 entry codes) at the local or remote keypad. Interior
and exterior remote keypads are available.
Block coded and single enrolled MegaCode® transmitters (up to a total
of 1000 transmitters) can be used to gain access through the AE-500’s
built-in radio receiver. Each transmitter can be individually deactivated or
reactivated. In addition, a single enrolled transmitter can be deleted.
