The individuals who are authorized to access the secured area have their User ID listed
in a so-called "Authorized User List" (in contrast with a banned card list).
The MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series terminal and the Controller are
communicating according to one of the TCP/IP, Wiegand, Dataclock or RS485
protocols:
The MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series terminal sends User ID to the Controller
The Controller sends its decision to the MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series
terminal (which displays access granted or access denied depending on the answer)
The MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series terminal sends an alarm signal to the
Controller as soon as a malicious operation is detected (terminal pulled out from
the wall or opened for maintenance operations); refer the paragraph dealing with
anti-pulling and anti-tamper switches for more explanations.
The Controller is part of the global Access Control System of the secured area, which
can provide useful features such as manage:
authorized user lists (i.e. for VIP),
banned card lists (i.e. for lost user cards),
an access request log (who and when, access granted or denied,..),
an event log (i.e. tamper detection, access control for evacuation of the building,...).
The MorphoAccess® terminal is able to work alone, without Controller, but the
protection level of the secured area is lower.
An Alarm (3rd party product)
This element is connected to the MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series terminal
through a dry contact.
The MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series terminal sends the command to activate
the Alarm as soon as a malicious operation (terminal pulled out from the wall or having
its bottom cover opened out of maintenance operations) is detected; refer the
paragraph dealing with anti-pulling and anti-tamper switches for more explanations.
A Door Electric Latch or equivalent (3rd party product)
This element once activated opens the access. The Controller is the one which sends
the command to activate the latch if access is granted (i.e. if the individual's User ID is
listed in the Controller Authorized User List). Connection between these two elements
is done through a dry contact.
