System Overview
Access Professional Edition System (hereunder referred to as
Access PE) consists of four modules
–
LAC Service: a process which is in constant communication
with the LACs (Local Access Controllers – hereafter
referred to as Controllers). AMCs (Access Modular
Controllers) are used as Controllers.
–
Configurator
–
Personnel Management
–
Logviewer
These four can be divided into server and client modules.
The LAC service needs to remain in constant contact with the
controllers because firstly it constantly receives messages from
them regarding movements, presence and absence of
cardholders, secondly because it transmits data modifications,
e.g. assignment of new cards, to the controllers, but mainly
because it carries out meta-level checks (access sequence
checks, anti-passback checks, random screening).
The Configurator should also run on the server; however it can
be installed on client workstations and operated from there.
The modules Personnel Management and Logviewer belong to
the Client component and can be run on the Server in addition,
or on a different PC with a network connection to the server.
The following Controllers can be used.
–
AMC2 4W (with four Wiegand reader interfaces) - can be
extended with an AMC2 4W-EXT
–
AMC2 4R4 (with four RS485 reader interfaces)

where the Server to which the Controllers are connected is in a
locked computer room, but the personnel data is maintained,
for example, by the personnel department elsewhere.
The Access PE Client can be installed on up to 16 computers,
which access common data on the Server via the network.
Client workstations can be configured to use two monitors.
Window positions maintained by the operating system, ensure a
familiar operators’ environment across login sessions.

Introduction
Access PE 3.0
Access PE is an Access Control System which has been
designed to offer the highest standards of security and flexibility
to small and medium sized installations.
Access PE owes its stability and upgradeability to a 3-tier
design: The top tier is the administration level with its
controlling services. All administrative tasks are carried out
here, e.g. the registration of new cards and the assignment of
access rights.
The second tier is formed by the Local Access Controllers
(LACs) which govern each group of doors or entrances. Even
when the system is offline a LAC is able independently to make
access control decisions. LACs are responsible for controlling
the entrances, governing door opening times or requesting PINcodes at critical access points.
The third tier consists of card readers which, like the
Controllers, are identical across all BOSCH access controls.
They provide not only a consistently high degree of security, but
also a simple upgrade and expansion path for the system,
protecting previous investments.
Access PE multi-user version allows multiple workstations to
control the system. Customizable user rights levels regulate
access and guarantee security. In this way it is possible, for
example, to maintain card data from one workstation whilst
using another to verify whether an employee is present in the
building.
Access PE offers exceptionally flexible configuration of access
rights, time models and entrance parameters. The following list
gives an overview of the most important features:
Quick & Easy card Assignment
2014-06 | 3.0 | Installation Manual
Bosach Access Systems GmbH
General | en
Access PE 3.0
13
Cards (up to three) can be assigned to persons either manually
or using a dialog reader connected to a PC via a serial
connection. Only one card can be active per person at any one
time. When upgrading cards the old card is automatically
overwritten and becomes invalid, thus preventing old cards from
gaining access even if those responsible forgot or were unable
to cancel them.
Access Rights (including Group Privileges)
Each person can inherit group privileges as well as having
individual rights assigned to him. Privileges can be restricted by
area and time to an accuracy of one minute. Group privileges
can be used to grant and limit access rights for any or all
cardholders simultaneously. Group privileges can be made
dependent on time models which restrict their access to certain
times of day.
Access tracking
By defining Areas it is possible to track and enforce a correct
sequence of accesses. Even without monitoring, this
configuration makes it possible to display a cardholder's
location.
Anti-Passback
When a card has been read it can be blocked for a defined
period from entering at the same access point. Hence it is
possible to prevent "passback", where a user hands his card
back across a barrier to provide access for an unauthorized
person.
Automatic Cancelation of cards upon Expiration
Visitors and temporary staff frequently require access for a
limited period only.
cards can be registered for a specific time period, so that they
automatically lose their validity when that period expires.
Time Models and Day Models
Bosach Access Systems GmbH
2014-06 | 3.0 | Installation Manual
14
en | General
Access PE 3.0
A cardholder can be assigned to specific time models which
regulate the hours in which that person has access. Time
models can be defined flexibly using day models which
determine how specific weekdays, weekends, holidays and
special days deviate from normal working days.
Identification via PIN-Code
Instead of a card a person can use a special PIN-Code to enter.
Verification via PIN-Code
Particularly sensitive areas can be programmed to require
additional PIN-Codes. This protection can in turn be made
dependent on time models, so that, for instance, a PIN-Code is
only required for access during holiday times or outside of
defined working hours.
Flexible Door Management
Flexible parameterization of individual door models allows an
optimum balance between security and comfort. The "shunt" or
alarm suppression period can be individually specified to
regulate for how long a door may remain open. In cooperation
with an alarm system the access point can then optionally be
locked.
Periodic Door Release
In order to facilitate access, door alarms can be shunted to
release doors for specific periods. Door release periods can be
defined manually or automatically via a time model.
Time and Attendance
Access points can be parameterized to record ingress and
egress for time & attendance purposes.
Card Design
The graphical add-in module Card Personalization (CP) is fully
integrated into the Access Control system to allow the operator
to create cards without switching applications.
Assignment of Photos
If the add-in module Card Personalization (CP) is not activated
photographic identification can nevertheless be imported and
associated with cardholders.

Offline locking system
Areas which are not covered, for whatever reason, by the highavailability online access control system can nevertheless be

Setting Server access rights
The standard protection settings under Windows XP
Professional, Windows 2008 Server, and Windows 7 have
changed vis-à-vis previous versions such that Client applications
can not access the folder
C:\BOSCH\Access Professional Edition\PE\Data (= default
installation path) even when that folder is shared. This issue
exists for changed installation paths, too.
Windows users who are logged into the workstations must have
at least write-access to this folder. This access right for users
and groups can be instated via the folder’s Properties menu,
Security tab.

Language settings
Ideally only those languages are used in Access PE which are
compatible with the language of the operating system, e.g.
under a German operating system only Western European
languages.
If it should prove necessary to install languages in Access PE
which do not correspond to the operating system, e.g. Chinese
under a German operating system, then the following settings
need to be made. We demonstrate the individual steps here
using the example of Chinese.
Invoke the Regional and Language Options dialog under:
Start > Settings > Control Panel
Install additional languages
Open the Languages tab, and select in the Supplemental
language support field the language group to which the desired
language belongs.

In the case of Chinese the appropriate option is Install files for
East Asian languages.
Notice!
During the installation you will be required to insert the
installation CD for the operating system. Continue with this
installation only if the operating system CD is available to you.
Click the Advanced tab and select from the upper combo-box
(Select a language to match the language version of the nonUnicode programs you want to use) the appropriate entry. In
our example this is Chinese (PRC).
In addition, check the box marked Apply all settings to the
current user account and the default user profile at the lower
edge of the dialog.
When these settings have been applied you will need to read
and confirm various message boxes before being invited to
restart the computer. Restart the computer.
After restarting log into an Access PE application and select, for
example, Chinese as your language. All dialogs and menus
should now contain the appropriate characters.
Keyboard settings
If the additional language is to be entered as well as read, then
further steps are necessary in addition to the settings described
above.

If a reinstallation becomes necessary (e.g. due to a product
update) the existing version should first be deinstalled. During
the deinstallation process you will be invited to perform a
database export. This export is to ensure that your entire data is
saved. Your data is saved to your installation folder in the
subfolder \Savedata. During the following reinstallation you will
be invited before completion to perform a database import. This
re-import restores all the data from your previous installation. If
required by new product functionality, the Export/Import option
also supports the simultaneous conversion of your data to a new
format.

User rights | en

User rights
The rights for users of Access PE applications (as well as users
of the Configurator and the Logviewer) are assigned in
Personnel Management on a special personnel data tab (= User
Rights).
6.1
User rights
This tab is only visible if the user currently logged in has
administrator rights. Only administrators can set and modify
their own rights and those of others.
If a person is to receive user rights for Access PE applications,
then these must be explicitly assigned. By default all persons
are configured without user rights.
Bosach Access Systems GmbH
2014-06 | 3.0 | Installation Manual
100
en | User rights
Access PE 3.0
User rights can be assigned by entering a user name and a
password. The person's surname is suggested by default as the
user name, but this is arbitrary. The password can be max. 16
characters long, is case sensitive and may contain any special
characters.
Notice!
It is highly recommended that you create a separate user for
each person who is to use the system. Do not create a generic
user under whose name different persons will work. All data
entries, modifications etc. are logged under the name of the
user who carried them out, but this is only worthwhile if each
user has his/her own password and changes user settings
(User handover and workstation security, page 104) as necessary
when sharing the workstation with another person.
The default installation contains one predefined administrator.
Hence when these predefined users are logged on it is possible
to create and modify any other kind of user or administrator.
Administrators differ from normal users only in as far as they are
able to administrate user rights. There is no difference between
the user types as far as the availability of applications or access
to data and log files is concerned. Each of the users can be
configured with restricted or unrestricted data access.
If one of the administrator options is chosen then the various
groups of user rights for Access PE applications become active
and can be assigned individually.
In detail, the assignable user rights are the following:

A user with the user name and password bosch is provided by
default.
Only administrators are allowed to set up other users.
Warning!
This user and his password is part of the standard delivery and
!
not customized for each purchaser of the software. Therefore it
is urgently recommended, before entering production usage,
that you first use them to set up your own accounts with
administrator privileges, and then delete or modify the original.
Set up further users as follows:
1.
Start Access PE Personnel Management using the desktop

or via Start > Programs > Access Professional
Edition, and log in with the pre configured UserAdministrator account.
2.
Open the dialog for adding personnel data using the button

system - there is no need to restart Access PE.
First the current user must log out. To do this s/he clicks the
button in the tool bar. A safety check follows: Do you
want to end your work with user rights?
After confirming the system switches back to the default view.

Workstation security
In the case of temporarily unoccupied workstations in publicly
accessible places it is crucial to protect personal data from
unauthorized access. Several measures are available for this
purpose:
–
In general neither Configurator nor Log Viewer should be
installed on such workstations.
–
Log out of Personnel Management when not in use, using
the
button with safety check as described above. The
personnel list remains visible but personal data can no
longer be accessed.
–
Close the application using File > Exit, or the Windows xbutton in the title bar. The application will need to be
restarted to view the personnel list.
–
Lock the computer using the standard Windows function:
Press Ctrl + Alt + Del and choose Lock Computer from the
system functions offered there. As this is the default
function Lock Computer can usually be quickly achieved by
simply pressing RETURN. Only the current user or a
Windows system administrator can now unlock the system.
