Welcome

This manual provides the technician with information about the installation and configuration of the Card Access System and explains how to configure various components for a new system, including the modification of an existing system.

Applications

Mircom's Card Access System consists of a controller, two card readers and configuration software. The controller can accept at the same time, a combination of card readers with different formats to control two access points or doors. The Card Access System can set elevator usage if elevator controls are used.

A number of different card readers are supported, such as the TX3-CX-REC

Wiegand wireless receiver, all of which are configurable using the Configurator software.

The Card Access System can be used in a stand-alone or networked environment using a standard RS-485, daisy chain peer-to-peer network arrangement.

This network can consist of only the Card Access Controller or a combination of

Touch Screens, Lobby Control Units, Elevator Restriction Units and Card

Access Units. Up to 63 units can be networked on any RS-485 network or subnetwork. Valid RS-485 network addresses range from 1 to 63. One of the networked units with a real time clock, such as Touch Screen, Lobby Control or

Card Access must have their network address set to 1.

If an Ethernet network is used, you can connect more than 63 units to your system. If you use an Ethernet network with RS-485 subnetworks, each RS-485 subnetwork can have 63 devices connected to it.

Wiegand interface

The Wiegand interface is a wiring standard for card readers for establishing the connections between a card reader and the Card Access System. This interface is a serial interface requiring 7 to 10 conductors for communications between the reader and the controller. This interface also supplies 12V power to the reader.

The Wiegand compatible access card has 26 bits of information embedded onto the card. The card reader reads and registers the card information and sends it back to the controller in a serial bit stream.

Card Access System

The Mircom Card Access System supports a proprietary 37-bit encoding technology and a 26-bit SIA standard format, and consists of a maximum of 63

Card Access Controllers networked together. Each Card Access Controller can have two card readers. The Card Access System provides an optional battery backup and a real time clock.

Welcome

The Card Access System integrates with the TX3 Telephone Access system by utilizing a common network for both Telephone Access and Card Access

Systems.

A PC provides configuration and on-line monitoring of the Card Access System and the Telephone Access System status. Once the system is configured, the PC is not required.

Configurable Features

The system is configured by connecting the inputs and outputs to device access points, and using the Configurator software to establish the correlations between these inputs and outputs.

Additional physical configuration is required using the dip switches and jumpers on the controller. DIP switches set the Card Access Controller network address.

Jumper settings set the controller for firmware updates.

PC Configurator Software

The Configurator Software is a combined Telephone Access System and Card

Access System Configurator that uses a common database. Once the controller is installed the system applies its default values. Use the Configurator software to fully configure the system. See the following documentation:

LT-995 Configuration and Administration Guide

LT-973 TX3 Software Guide

Installer Responsibilities

The installation and setup must be done by a qualified technician. The technician is responsible for installing all of the system components, connecting all of the input and output wiring for the appropriate door entry systems, and ensuring that the wiring adheres to the requirements of the system for proper operation using the Configurator software.

Network Setup

The Card Access System can consist of either stand-alone Card Access

Controllers or networked Card Access Controllers. Networked Card Access

Controllers can communicate over an RS-485 network, an Ethernet TCP/IP network, or a combination of an Ethernet network with RS-485 subnetworks. All

Card Access Controllers can communicate over RS-485. To communicate over an Ethernet network you need at least one IP-enabled Card Access Controller

(called a Master Node).

Welcome

The TX3 Configurator software can connect to any of these network configurations. How you connect to the network (that is, through TCP/IP, USB, a modem, or the COM port) determines what devices you can configure on the network using the TX3 Configurator. The different network configurations are explained in the rest of this section.

Figure 1 shows a basic Card Access System with one Card Access Controller and

two card readers. The maximum distance between the Card Access Controller and the card readers is 500 feet.

Welcome

If you connect to the Ethernet TCP/IP network with the TX3 Configurator, you can configure any of the nodes in the system. If you connect directly to a controller using USB, a modem, or a COM port, you will only be able to configure devices that are on the same RS-485 subnetwork as that device.

Note: There can only be one Master Node on an RS-485 subnetwork.

That is, you cannot connect one RS-485 subnetwork to another

RS-485 subnetwork. However, if you want to connect to a

Touch Screen panel remotely over the Internet (for instance, to configure Touch Screen options such as color and themes), the

Touch Screen panel must be set as an Master Node even if there is no slave panel connected to it.

Configurable Features

Door sense for reader A or B

When the door is open this input is active and when the door is closed the input is inactive. This input:

• senses if the door ever opened after it was unlocked as a result of access being granted. If the door did not open even though the door was unlocked for the programmed time duration, it is reported to the Configurator if configured.

senses a forced entry. If the door is locked and the door contact input becomes active, the forced entry alarm activates. This can be changed by selecting Disable forced entry alarm .

senses if the door is held open. This happens when the door is unlocked and the door contact becomes active but does not get inactivated before the Unlock time timer or the Extended unlock time timer expires. At this time the Door held open warning timer starts. If the door is still open when this timer expires, a Door held open warning is reported to the

Configurator.

When the Door held open warning timer expires, the Door held open alarm timer starts. When the Door held open alarm timer expires, a door held open alarm is reported to the Configurator.

If the door closes during the time when the Door held open warning timer or the Door held open alarm timer are active, the warning or alarm is cancelled, and the Door open warning restored or Door open alarm restored event is reported to the Configurator.

Correlation

The correlations function lets you establish specific relationships between panel inputs (events) and outputs (actions), such as turning on a light when a door opens. Correlations also allow you to specify these relationships to a schedule, such as allowing access only during certain days and times of the week. A maximum of 32 correlations is allowed.

Assigning events to access points

Assigning events to access points associates the access point with the event. The

Configurator lets you assign input events by labelling the following access points:

Reader A

Reader B

Inputs 1 to 8

Turn ON output

Turn OFF output

Turn ON high security

Turn OFF high security

Panels

Correlations can be applied to either one of the panels on your system, all of the panels on your system, to a custom group of panels on your system (for TCP/IP networks only), and across all panels on the network. They can occur on the local panel, distributed panels or different types of panels (Card Access and Telephone

Access) on the network.

Note: Correlation signals cannot be transmitted by Touch Screen Master

Nodes. If you plan on setting up correlations either all of the panels on your network or a custom group of panels, consult LT-995 for instructions on selecting the

Configurable Features

Duration

The duration of the action is specified in minutes and seconds, or indefinitely.

Schedule

The schedule lets you specify when correlated events take effect.

Access Criteria

If connected to a PC, the Configurator software monitors the functional state of inputs from all panels and devices, and senses the status of connected components. Outputs are programmed for specific functionality, such as specific delay and on/off times.

Granting access depends on different criteria, such as security precautions and the access privileges granted the card holder. To prevent unauthorized access the controller has various configurable features for determining the conditions and type of access.

Access requirements are a function of schedule, holidays, security precautions and access privileges. The parameters are configurable and allow for very detailed system operation. For example access privileges may have dependencies and consequently may be more suitable to run as a scheduled task.

The Configurator software lets you define and configure the various modes of operation for managing access, defining inputs and assigning outputs. In order to effectively use the Configurator you must understand these configurable features.

The following features are configurable:

Lock / Unlock

High security

PC decision required

Facility code

Configurable Features

• Card options

Lock / Unlock

An access point has one of the following lock status modes:

Lock Mode . When in lock mode the door is normally locked. Any valid access card unlocks the door for the duration of a specified time interval according to: door unlock time extended unlock time

During this mode the red LED on the card reader associated with this access point becomes active and turns green for the duration the door is unlocked.

Unlock Mode . When in unlock mode the door is unlocked. The green led on the reader associated with this access point stays lit. During this mode the door sense is not monitored for the following: door did not open door held open warning force entry alarm

Changing the lock/unlock mode

The lock/unlock mode is changed in one of the following three ways:

• an administrator using the Configurator can send a command to change the lock mode an access card with lock/unlock privileges, if swiped twice in succession, toggles between lock and unlock mode a schedule associated with the lock/unlock mode - when the associated schedule is active, it changes to unlock mode and when the schedule is inactive, it changes back to lock mode

Whenever the mode is changed from lock to unlock or from unlock to lock, the beeper on the reader associated with this access point sends a distinct beep indicating the mode is changed.

High security

The high security mode grants access to cards with the high security privilege.

This mode is changed as follows.

• if the access point is configured as high security then it is in high security mode by default unless changed by the PC or card with high security privilege

LT-980

Configurable Features

• if an access card with high security privilege is swiped four times in succession, the mode toggles between high security on to high security off the Configurator software can change the mode from high security on to high security off or from high security off to high security on an event correlated with a response to turn on or off the high security mode

The high security mode locks all doors in the unlocked mode.

Whenever the high security mode changes, the beeper on the reader associated with this access point sends a distinct beep.

PC decision required

During this mode the decision to grant access is transferred to an attendant. Using the PC the attendant grants or denies access. Only valid cards assigned with the

PC decision requirement are able to make this type of access request.

Facility code mode

Access cards consist of two codes; facility code and card code. The facility code mode is designed for new installations where access cards are not programmed into the database. When the facility code mode is enabled, cards with same facility code are granted access.

The facility code can be set to any number. If a number is not chosen, it will automatically default to “0” as a placeholder.

In this mode, the door is unlocked for the same period of time that as that of the standard door unlock timer. This mode is configured for each access point.

Card + PIN

This mode provides another level of security during certain parts of the day.

During this mode not only a valid card is required for access but also a PIN code.

The PIN code is 1 to 4 digits long and is programmed for each card. 0 is not a valid

PIN code.

There is a schedule associated with this mode. When the schedule is enabled, the mode is on and when the schedule is disabled, the mode is off.

This feature requires a card reader with a keypad.

Anti-passback

This mode prevents unauthorised users from getting access. During the antipassback period if a valid card is used at an access point, it cannot be re-used at the same access point until the pre-programmed anti-passback timer expires.

After expiration of the timer, the user regains access.

Configurable Features

Temporary card

This type of card can be created by placing a usage counter on the card. Each time the card is used, the usage counter is reduced by one. When the usage number reaches zero, access is denied.

A usage counter of 255 indicates there is no restriction on use.

Interlock

This mode is typically used in a double door application to prevent unauthorised access. During this mode the user presents the card at both doors. The second door unlocks after presenting the card, if the first door is locked and closed.

If enabled door B cannot be unlocked until door A is locked and closed. Door A cannot be unlocked until door B is locked and closed.

Access level

Creating an access level lets you define where and when to use a card, and set elevator usage if elevator controls are used.

A maximum of 128 access levels are defined for each controller. A schedule is associated with each access level for all the access points on the controller as indicated by the following example.

Access level ID = 1

• for reader A schedule = Always for reader B schedule = Never

Access level ID = 2

• for reader A schedule = Office hours for reader B schedule = Always

If a card is assigned an access level 1 it means the user can have access to reader

A at all times but will not have access to reader B at any time.

If a card is assigned an access level 2 it means the user can have access to reader

A during the office hours and will have access to reader B all the time.

The option for elevator control exists for each access level. If elevator control is enabled for a specific access level then swiping a card with that access level will turn on the associated elevator relays. Which relays are activated can be specified individually for each access level. Up to 16 elevator relays can be activated for each access level. If more than 16 relays are assigned to a specific access level only the first 16 will be activated.

Configurable Features

Disable forced entry alarm . If this option is enabled, the forced entry alarm does not activate even if the door is opened without permission. Instead, access is granted. This is usually used on access points where there is no request to exit

(RTE) device.

Note: If you select this option, then you should also select Report request to exit

so that every time access is granted, it is reported in the

Online Events.

Ignore card facility code.

This option is enabled by default meaning that only card number will be processed. If this option is unchecked, then for every card, card number and facility code will be processed to grant access.

PC decision required . When enabled granting access is transferred to the PC from the controller. For this option to work the PC needs to be on all the time with an attendant. Use this option when the building has a security desk or a concierge.

First person In . Configuring the access point for the lock/unlock schedule, causes the door to remain locked at the start of the unlock schedule, until the first valid card with this privilege is presented to the card reader. The door continues to remain unlocked for the remainder of the unlock schedule.

RTE bypass DC . Enable this option if there is a mechanical egress device installed on the door. In this situation, the door is unlocked manually, and the

TX3 system does not unlock the door. If the door is opened, the system updates the door status and the LED on the reader turns green. The door contact is bypassed and so there is no forced entry alarm.

High security . When enabled only access cards with the high security privilege are able to open the door.

Report request to exit . This option logs and monitors events and system status.

When enabled any requests to exit are logged and reported to the Configurator.

Since the person exiting is not known, only the time and date and the request itself is logged and reported.

Report door not opened . When enabled this option logs and reports events when access is granted but the door remains closed.

Report unknown format . When enabled this option logs and reports access attempts with a card with an unknown format.

Facility code mode . Enabling this mode grants access to cards based on only their facility code. This allows nonprogrammed cards to have complete building access. Use only when necessary.

Inhibit ID . When enabled the card code is not sent to the PC. This feature is used for logging and reporting purposes.

Timed Anti-passback . When enabled access is not permitted at the same access point for a specific amount of time specified by the anti-passback timer.

Card options

Access cards are configured for the following features:

Usage counter . The usage counter is used for temporary cards. The usage counter can be given any value from 1 to 255. Using 255 means there is no restriction on usage. If any other value is used it means the card is only usable for that number of times.

Status . The status of the access card is marked as:

Active

Inactive

Inactive cards are not granted access. Active cards are granted access provided all the other conditions like schedule and privilege are met.

Access level

. Select the access level for the card. Access levels are configurable on the basis of privilege. Up to 128 access levels can be defined for the system.

PIN

. The PIN code is a 1 to 4 digit numerical value used during the card + PIN schedule. 0 is not accepted.

Ignore anti-passback

. When this option is enabled the card holder is not restricted by the timed anti-passback mode.

Lock/Unlock privilege

. When this option is enabled the user has the privilege of unlocking the door by presenting the card to the reader twice in succession.

High security privilege

. When this option enabled only access cards with this privilege are able to open the door.

Extended unlock time

. When this option is enabled the door opens for the

extended unlock time (see section 2.4.3 on page 23). This option is normally

given to seniors and persons with disabilities.

Handicap

. When this option is enabled the output designated as accessible is activated along with the main door.

Request to Exit

Activation of this input unlocks the door and starts the door unlock timer.

Door sense

When the door is open this input is active and when the door is closed the input is inactive.

General purpose input

The general purpose input is mainly used for establishing a correlation with a specific output. When a general purpose input becomes active it is considered as an event that correlates to either turn on or off a general purpose output, or to turn on or off the high security mode. Other correlated events include different functions such as forced entry, auto relock or interlock.

Active state

An active state is when the input circuit is considered active and is configured as one of the following:

• open short (default)

There are some restrictions in configuring the active state depending on what kind of supervision is required.

If the input is not supervised the input is either ‘open’ or ‘closed’. If the input is supervised for ‘open’ the active state cannot be ‘open’.

If the input is supervised for both ‘open’ and ‘short’ the active state cannot be

‘open’.

Orange LED

. Illuminates steady orange until a card is used for the first time.

Normal illumination returns upon subsequent use. ( on some models only

)

Card Reader Beeper

The beeper indicates specific events at different beep rates as follows:

Card Presented. One short beep.

Access Granted.

Two short beeps.

Access Denied

. One short beep and one long beep.

Setting DIP Switches SW2

The DIP switches on SW2 are used to set the Card Access Controller address on the RS-485 network and determine how the Card Access Controller gets its IP address (on IP enabled controllers only). Valid addresses are 1 to 63. DIP switches 1 to 6 are used for binary addressing with DIP switch 1 being the least significant bit. DIP switch SW2 is found at the top central portion of the Card

Access Controller board, see figure 24.

56

LT-980

TX3-CX Card Access System Installation and Operation Manual

Copyright 2019

Version 5.2

Warranty & Warning Information of the users of this Mircom System. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure:

4.

Inadequate Installation. All Mircom Systems must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. National standards require an inspection and approval to be conducted by the local authority having jurisdiction following the initial installation of the system and following any changes to the system. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

5.

Inadequate Testing. Most problems that would prevent an alarm a

Mircom System from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested by the local authority having jurisdiction immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

NOTE TO USERS:

All Mircom Systems have been carefully designed to be as effective as possible.

However, there are circumstances where they may not provide protection. Some reasons for system failure include the following. The end user can minimize the occurrence of any of the following by proper training, testing and maintenance of the Mircom Systems:

6.

Inadequate Testing and Maintenance. It is imperative that the systems be periodically tested and subjected to preventative maintenance. Best practices and local authority having jurisdiction determine the frequency and type of testing that is required at a minimum. Mircom System may not function properly, and the occurrence of other system failures identified below may not be minimized, if the periodic testing and maintenance of

Mircom Systems is not completed with diligence and as required.

7.

Improper Operation.

It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm. A Mircom System may not function as intended during an emergency situation where the user is unable to operate a panic or emergency switch by reason of permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, unfamiliarity with the correct operation, or related circumstances.

LT-980

Warranty & Warning Information

8.

Insufficient Time. There may be circumstances when a Mircom System will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

9.

Carelessness or Safety Hazards. Moreover, smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits or children playing with matches or arson.

10.

Power Failure. Some Mircom System components require adequate electrical power supply to operate. Examples include: smoke detectors, beacons, HVAC, and lighting controllers. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage Mircom

Systems or other electronic equipment. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

11.

Battery Failure. If the Mircom System or any device connected to the system operates from batteries it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition, and installed correctly. Some Mircom Systems use replaceable batteries, which have a limited life-span. The expected battery life is variable and in part dependent on the device environment, usage and type.

Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life.

Moreover, some Mircom Systems do not have a battery monitor that would alert the user in the event that the battery is nearing its end of life.

Regular testing and replacements are vital for ensuring that the batteries function as expected, whether or not a device has a low-battery monitor.

12.

Physical Obstructions. Motion sensors that are part of a Mircom System must be kept clear of any obstacles which impede the sensors’ ability to detect movement. Signals being communicated by a Mircom System may not reach the receiver if an item (such as metal, water, or concrete) is placed on or near the radio path. Deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference can also negatively affect system operation.

13.

Wireless Devices Placement Proximity. Moreover all wireless devices must be a minimum and maximum distance away from large metal objects, such as refrigerators. You are required to consult the specific

Mircom System manual and application guide for any maximum distances required between devices and suggested placement of wireless devices for optimal functioning.

14.

Failure to Trigger Sensors. Moreover, Mircom Systems may fail to operate as intended if motion, heat, or smoke sensors are not triggered.

TX3-CX Card Access System Installation and Operation Manual

Copyright 2019

Version 5.2

Warranty & Warning Information a.

Sensors in a fire system may fail to be triggered when the fire is in a chimney, walls, roof, or on the other side of closed doors.

Smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building. In this situation the control panel may not alert occupants of a fire. b.

Sensors in a nurse call system may fail to be triggered when movement is occurring outside of the motion sensors’ range. For example, if movement is occurring on the other side of closed doors or on another level of the residence or building the motion detector may not be triggered. In this situation the central controller may not register an alarm signal.

15.

Interference with Audible Notification Appliances.

Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners, appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

16.

Other Impairments.

Alarm notification appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn or waken a sleeping occupant if there is an intervening wall or door. It is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened when notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise.

17.

Software Malfunction.

Most Mircom Systems contain software. No warranties are provided as to the software components of any products or stand-alone software products within a Mircom System. For a full statement of the warranties and exclusions and limitations of liability please refer to the company’s standard Terms and Conditions and

Warranties.

18.

Telephone Lines Malfunction.

Telephone service can cause system failure where telephone lines are relied upon by a Mircom System. Alarms and information coming from a Mircom System may not be transmitted if a phone line is out of service or busy for a certain period of time. Alarms and information may not be transmitted where telephone lines have been compromised by criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

19.

Component Failure.

Although every effort has been made to make this

Mircom System as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

20.

Integrated Products.

Mircom System might not function as intended if it is connected to a non-Mircom product or to a Mircom product that is deemed non-compatible with a particular Mircom System. A list of compatible products can be requested and obtained.
