Intelligent Access Control
The Intelligent Access Controller (IAC-600) opens the door to a new way of thinking about access control. As part of the Metasys Network, the IAC-600 controls far more than simple entry.
Cards can be preprogrammed to control HVAC, lighting equipment, or nearly any other function in the facility.

Application Overview The IAC-600 Access Control System can support multiple security scanning technologies, and has the ability to handle 16,000 card holders and record all of their transactions at any Metasys Operator Workstation. Access control functions can be easily programmed, making changes in any or all card parameters simple. The IAC-600 provides standalone access control to your facility and continues to operate even if it loses contact with the rest of the Metasys Network.
In fact, even if the card reader interface should lose contact with the D600 Access Controller, a default level of access protection remains in place. These capabilities make the IAC-600 both an invaluable part of the Metasys Network, and a perfect standalone controller for facilities looking for cutting-edge access control management.

Intelligent Access Control—The Name says it all The D600 access controller is where all of the access programming is stored for a group of readers. This allows the IAC-600 to control access to your facility totally independently in the event it loses contact with the Metasys Network. While all records of access operation are routinely uploaded to the Operator Workstation for storage and analysis, the IAC-600 will store internally up to 2,000 transactions and all alarms if communication is lost to the Network Control Unit. The Smart Terminal Interface (STI) consists of a processor and communication card for interfacing a reader to an Access Controller. It also connects to the door strike relay, and accepts up to eight alarm inputs for such applications as a door-open detector or tamper alarm. In the event of a communication failure between the Access Controller and the STI, the STI contains facility code information to maintain a default level of facility security. Combined with the optional Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) and battery backup, the IAC-600 can continue to function long after other systems would have quit. Multiple IAC-600s are typically used in a Metasys Network to expand the number of card readers, to reduce wiring costs between readers and Access Controllers, and to increase the level of distribution of your access control system. Operation of all IAC-600s is coordinated by Metasys Dynamic Data Access networking software.
Wide Variety of Card Reading Schemes The IAC-600 doesn't lock you into one card reading option. It can support multiple security scanning technologies, including magnetic stripe, proximity, Wiegand, and barium ferrite. The IAC600's capacity easily expands from its basic 4,400 card, 8 reader format to handle up to 16,000 card holders and 16 readers. This is accomplished—like the rest of the Metasys Network—by using modular components so you add only as much equipment as your facility needs. While this saves you money by not requiring unneeded equipment at setup time, it also allows
you to effortlessly add to your system as your facility grows.
IAC Does More Than Unlock Doors The IAC-600 uses the same easy-to-use, graphically oriented operator interface that the rest of the Metasys Network utilizes via the Operator Workstation. Programming changes are fast and easy, saving operator time and assuring that access changes are not delayed. Unlike other systems, cards can be added or deleted from the system while it is online. And unlike other systems, the Dynamic Data Access feature of the Metasys Network makes card access information available to all other parts of the network. This makes it possible, for example, to program an NCU to turn on a tenant's lights and HVAC equipment whenever the tenant enters the building during off-hours. Complete records of all card transactions are available at any Operator Workstation. These records can help building operators pinpoint offhours building energy usage, and serves as a registry of who was in the building at what times.
Wide Variety of Security Configurations The IAC-600 can be set up in a number of different arrangements. An Entry/Exit system regulates traffic by requiring a card holder to use his card both to gain access and leave the facility. This would be used, for example, to keep track of who is in or out of a high security or dangerous work area. Anti-passback is similar, but does not require an exit reader. It only allows a card to be used once in a predetermined period of time. In this way, one person can't enter a facility and pass his card back outside to allow someone else to immediately enter. On many systems, inserting a card into a reader will deactivate the lock for a set period of time, for example 15 seconds. If you enter the building in five seconds, the door is still unlocked behind you until the timer lapses. The Metasys Anti-tailgating System deactivates the lock when the card is inserted, but immediately activates and resets itself when it senses that the door has closed.

Conclusion The IAC-600 system can be an integral part of the Metasys Network, using the Operator Workstation to collect and analyze access data, and to make access programming changes. No
other system can use so many types of access schemes so efficiently. With the Metasys IAC-600 in your facility, you’ll know you’re holding the winning cards.
