The PAC500 provides 2 communications channels to 48 devices.

Channels are used to communicate with and manage controllers like the PAC512 Two-Door Access

Controller or PAC530 Output Controller.

These channels provide the following features:

Up to 24 controllers (PAC512, PAC520 or PAC530) can connect to each RS-485 channel

RS-485 communications

Secure encoded communications

Status LEDs for each port

The PAC500 communicates with Stanley PAC administration software via an embedded 100Mb

Ethernet connection over any WAN or LAN where devices on the network can be assigned a unique

IP address. All communications routed through this connection are fully encrypted using Secure

Sockets Layer (SSL) and the PAC500 sits behind its own built-in firewall.

In addition, the PAC500 also encodes communications with the controllers it manages over RS-485, to

ensure that all data transmitted within the access control network is secure.

Access and Alarm Server | Controller Architecture

The Access and Alarm Server (PAC500) uses encrypted SSL communication with the Host system, via an on-board 10/100Mb Ethernet port or dial-up modem.

The dual RS-485 bus enables combinations of up to 48 local devices (PAC500 Series Controllers) including:

• Two-Door Controllers (PAC512)

• Input Controllers (PAC520)

• Output Controllers (PAC530)

Access and Alarm Server | Elevator Control

The Access and Alarm Server (PAC500) provides Elevator Control. Card readers may be installed in elevator cars to provide restricted access to floors.

Typically each elevator car requires one card reader and one relay output for each floor select button. If reporting is required on cardholder destination, then one input is required for each floor select button in the elevator car.

System downtime is costly, particularly in a highly secure environment. The PAC500 overcomes this potential risk through the use of its

Distributed Intelligent Controllers. Even when the main communication lines are lost, the security at your facility can still be maintained.

Both Access and Alarm and Servers (PAC500) and Access Controllers (PAC512 Series) can operate independently of the Stanley PAC

Administration Software. All events are date and time stamped before being sent to the PAC500 by the PAC512 and each is capable of

buffering events should communications fail.

PAC512 16,000 Event Buffer

PAC500 The ratio of cardholder records to events can be adjusted, for example it can buffers up

to 100,000 Events with 20,000 cardholders

The PAC500 can utilize ‘Fallback communications’ via a dialup modem

The technology used in the PAC500 was developed from the ground up using Microsoft’s innovative .NET platform, Windows CE.NET and built around n-tier development.

This single platform offers a combination of an advanced, real-time operating system with the most powerful tools for rapidly creating the next generation of smart and connected access control devices, like the Access and Alarm Server (PAC500).

The .Net platform’s innovative design scales from the smallest devices to the largest of enterprise configurations, and enables code to be written once and reused across multiple components of the Stanley PAC access control product line.

To speed up trouble shooting and ensure error-free installation, One-Touch™ mode enables the controller

functionality to be tested at the controller by just pressing a single button. There are two test modes:

Active ModeUsed during system configuration to enable a walk test by a single person. This is achieved by use of latching LED status which

indicate the first change in input condition.

View Mode Used on a configured system to check the condition of inputs by using on-board LEDs. The LED display indicates changes of input state, so alarm and tamper circuits may be walk tested with one person to perform the walk test and the second to monitoring LED changes.

Area Anti-Passback (APB) ensures a cardholder credential can only be used to enter an area once.

This prevents cardholders "passing back" their card to others to provide access to the site and will not open the

door for anyone else using the same card. Information that the cardholder is already on site is shared with all other

controllers, thereby rendering the card ineffective to an unauthorized person at any door.

Operator can reset the APB of an individual cardholder

after a passback violation has been forgiven.

Passback violations can be reset at specified times (e.g. Overnight)

Configurable time period for each APB area

APB areas may reside within other APB areas

The Tamper input triggers a system alarm event if an unauthorized access to the cabinet door is detected.

When the Door Override Input is activated it will release the locks on all connected door controllers

The Access and Alarm Server (PAC500) packaging features a green clip mount that allows assembly into any

industry-standard DIN-rail application.

This design enables the PAC500 to be installed in a multitude of enclosure options, its compact form factor affords

very high density mounting configurations, which are suitable for either centralized or ‘home run’ architectures.

Stanley PAC’s architecture includes a data communication protocol to interface hardware with software, as well as the cable network to facilitate the data transmission. This architecture enables you to freely choose:

Centralized or ‘Home Run’ ArchitectureControllers, power supplies, input, output and door controller modulesare located in a central location.The advantage of this approach includes the ability to monitor andprotect access to this central location and enables a service technicianto troubleshoot components from a single position. This architectureoften requires a large quantity of cable to be installed.

Distributed ArchitectureControllers, power supplies, input, output and door controller modules are located in close proximity to the access device.Advantages of this approach includes a reduction of cable quantities required. The door or input/output controller is generally installed in a locked, tamper protected enclosure above the finished ceiling on the secure side of the controlled door.

Both home run and distributed architectures have their advantages and disadvantages. Stanley PAC Authorized Partners are a valuable asset in determining which is best suited for the operation and maintenance a particular system.
