Access Control System, Time Recording Systems and Integrated Security Management Systems

Multiple Application

	Each controller can be configured to work as a Door, Lift, Car Park Controller or a Time Recording Terminal, hence you don’t need to obtain different controllers for specific purposes.
	Providing a maximum of 16 sets access points, each set for IN and OUT readers.

Highly Scalable

With a wide range of Reader Interface Units (RIUs) & I/O Electronic Field Devices (EFDs) to choose from, the EL5000 Series controller can be applied from single door to multiple door applications with extensive Alarm monitoring for various site requirements

RIU & EFD VsController	ER505	ER504	ER502	EK9i	EA5168	EFD80
EL5002	Nil	Nil	Nil	Nil	8	8
EL5004	1	2	2	2	8	Nil
EL5000	4	8	8	8	8	8
EL5500	8	16	16	16	8	8

To further enhance its reliability and flexibility, the EL5000 Series Controller is able to monitor its RIUs and EFDs via Star Topology, doing away with conventional Daisy-Chain method. Conventional daisy chain topology suffers loss of communication with devices beyond the breakage point of a communication line.

The EA584 Star Hub can be incorporated into the EL5000 series controller as a 4 port hub for a star configuration of EFD I/O boards and RIUs.

High Performance System

	Distributed intelligence and user database for split second processing and credential verification.
	EL5000 Series Controller is equipped with high performance processor (32 bit Intel) to handle its large user (100,000) and transaction (160,000) database.
	The EL5000 Series Controller handles a maximum of 16 RIUs (32 readers, comprising of IN & OUT readers). In addition to that each EL5000 Series Controller monitors and controls up to 192 inputs 320 outputs.

High Compatibility

It accepts numeric card-number with 14 characters of buffer length.It allows users to define their own card numbers when using Smart Cards or any other types of cards in the market supporting this feature.

EL5000 Series Controller works with a wide choice of Biometric systems or card readers without any hardware modification.

RFID Proximity Readers,
Contactless Smart Card Readers,
Magnetic Readers,
Bar-code Readers
Touch Memory Readers.
Fingerprint
Facial Recognition
Number Plate Recognition

EL5000 series controller supports up to 14 character card number to achieve higher ratio of card number uniqueness.
For Smart Card applications, it enables users to define their own ID Credential numbers to personalize their own identification for high security applications.

EL5000 Series Controller is equipped with a 10Mbps Ethernet LAN Interface port.

It supports peer-to-peer communication between controllers and host computer by using Native TCP/IP Internet Protocol.

Supports Different Operational Cards

	EL5000 Series Controller manages 5 types of operational cards
	User Card to gain access to protected area
	Temporary Card to temporarily replace accidentally lost or misplaced User Cards, etc.
	Visitor Card to gain access with specific expiry date, and limiting number of times of access
	Guard Tour Card used for guard patrol monitoring purposes in the Matrix V system
	Escort Card used in conjunction with normal user cards in Dual Card mode.
	Special Card to arming/activation of input/output points.

Multiple Mode Of Operation

	For identification, it supports PIN mode, Card mode and Card+PIN mode. In Card+PIN mode, the PIN can be generated by internal algorithm or chosen by user, up to 80 PIN user codes can be recorded.
	If required, Card+PIN mode can be imposed on selected users only, at Time intervals.
	A user attempting to access with a card will be locked out if wrong PINs are repeatedly entered.
	Support for Dual Card mode.
	If required, continuous card-swiping mode on a door reader is available for tracking purposes even when door is opened.

Access Time Zones

	128 time zones are provided. Each time zone has an 8-day Schedule (7 weekdays + 1 holiday) with 4 start-stop periods per day.
	There are 40 records of Holidays.
	There are 99 sets of Global Timers made available.
	Users can be assigned to grouped Door Accessibility or even Individual Door Accessibility based on the configurable timers and timezones

Anti Pass-Back On Multiple Access Points

It supports 3 modes of anti pass-back :

Hard anti-passback mode prevents double entry or double exit from a protected area.
Soft mode enforces anti pass-back by Reader Mode on readers for entry purposes only.
Alarm mode tolerates anti-passback violations but provides a special alert to system operators whenever an anti pass back violation takes place, with information on where the violation occurred and by whom. This is in addition to standard transaction logging.

Inter-locking Function

Up to 16 doors can be interlocked. When this function is enabled, only one door can be opened at a time.

Alarm Monitoring

EL5000 Series offers comprehensive Alarm Monitoring features. Conditional I/O operation can be defined to trigger controls on Alarm Inputs, Output Points and Readers. For high security applications, EFD can be used to provide supervised inputs.

Time Attendance Function

Users have the option of incorporating Time Attendance functions to the EL5000, which gathers access behaviour data at door readers to be used with the Matrix V Time Attendance software module.For example, a Business Automation System that uses an SQL database managed by Microsoft SQL Server may easily share data with Matrix V software, integrating card user information with employee information, etc.
