The Building Access System gives network alarm managers the ability to control and regulate door entry access. With a built in fault tolerance system this security management system can effectively control your sites.

The Building Access System (BAS) is a comprehensive building management system that integrates into an existing alarm management platform. With the system in place, a log of all site access, including the time of day and location that access was granted, is maintained. In addition, alarms such as intrusions and excessive access attempts are reported to T/Mon on a per-door basis.

"BAS is a no-brainer if you already have a T/Mon and a NetGuardian..."

The DPS Building Access System consists of T/Mon, the NetGuardian 832A, the Entry Control Unit, and a Proxy Reader.

• Centralized entry management and control
• Controls and regulates up to 16 door entry points (*8 per RS485 port)
• Supports up to 1,300 users
• Users can be granted access by day of the week, time of day, and location
• New! Now available - Electromagnetic door locks
• Supports up to 16 doors per site
• Units function independent of master
• System can withstand connectivity losses to the local NetGuardians and T/Mon

BAS Software Module

The BAS functions as a software module in T/MonXM software. It is a profile-based access system that assigns each user with a unique user profile containing information on which sites are allowed to be accessed, the door numbers, days of the week access is allowed, a start/stop time, and a beginning and ending date (primarily for contractors, new employees, or short term employees).

Integrate BAS into T/Mon LNX

T/Mon

Integrate a (BAS) system into your T/Mon LNX alarm management platform. The BAS can work with T/Mon to give you a singlecentralized control of remote site access. You can support over 1,300 user assigned profiles with T/Mon.

The NetGuardian maintains a list of personnel who are authorized to access the facility.

NetGuardian 216F

The NetGuardian 216F controls local access at your remote sites. The unit maintains a list of personnel who are authorized to access the facility. It records all valid entries, attempts, and the time of each action in non-volatile RAM. It can also receive a control from T/Mon to remotely open a door. However, should the NetGuardian lose connection with the T/Mon , the unit is still able to make local entry decisions. The NetGuardian contains a mirror user database from T/Mon and will continue to function if the link is broken.

The NetGuardian 216F indicates conditions such as valid entry, invalid access attempt, and system lockout. The unit supports up to 1,300 user profiles for distribution between door entry points.

Designed for high-density door control scenarios where you may not need network alarm monitoring, the Building Access 32 controls up to 32 remote doors.

Building Access 32

The Building Access 32 interfaces to your door access controller, proxy card readers, and T/Mon Alarm Master. While a variety of NetGuardian RTUs can also handle this function, the Building Access 32 is ideal for high-density scenarios where you have a lot of doors to control and monitor. The Building Access 32 does not require external Entry Control Units (ECUs) to be placed near each door. It communicates directly with your proximity readers. Also, because the Building Access 32 does not include the network alarm monitoring functions of a traditional RTU, it is more cost-effective at sites where you don't have telecom equipment to monitor, such as your main office or storage facilities.

The ECU is powered by -48VDC and is wall-mountable on the interior of the building.

Entry Control Unit (ECU)

The ECU acts as an interface between the NetGuardian and the proxy reader. Any access code that is entered is accepted by the ECU and passed on to the NetGuardian for validation. If the access code is valid, the ECU receives a command from the NetGuardian to operate the local relay to energize the door. In the event of communication failure with the NetGuardian, the ECU will verify entered access codes against a small fallback set of valid access profiles that were downloaded from the NetGuardian.

The ECU is powered by -48VDC and is wall mountable on the interior of the building. The unit has LEDs for power, communication, fuse alarm, and an LED that that echoes the door status.

Eliminate the chance of forgotten keys.

Proxy Reader

A proximity card reader is now available for the BAS. This eliminates the chance of forgotten keycodes and increases your level of access control. An employee can easily share a keycode with others, but not a proxy card. In the event that a card is lost or stolen, it can be deactivated in seconds and a new card may be issued in its place.

Supports both proximity keys and keycards.

Building Access Proxy & Keypad (BAPKP)

A Building Access Proxy & Keypad (BAPKP) is now available for the BAS. Supporting both proximity keys and keycards at a remote site increases your flexibility. Regular employees can quickly wave their proximity key, while other authorized visitors can enter a temporary code to gain access. The BAPKP is a compact entry device that houses both a weather-resistant keypad and a proximity card reader.
