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.
1.3.1 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:

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).
