1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The system in use is the Entry-Master v5.1.2 Security Management System. The systems have been pre-configured specifically to meet the H3 Program’s specifications. The systems consist of one (1) CODAT Site, two (2) CDCZ Sites, and two (2) CDC Sites. The CODAT and CDCZ Sites have included in them a control panel, which monitors and controls the access control devices and cameras associated with their respective sites. The two CDC sites have camera system and access control boards, but are not integrated, due to the lack of a control panel. The particulars of how the CDC access control boards are programmed will be covered in its own section later in this document.

This document will break the installation down into sections, which will cover the major sub-system components in detail. Then, a final section will show how the sub-systems connect and integrate into a comprehensive security monitoring and control solution.

1.1 SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The H3 Program system is broken down into four (4) main components:

1. Section 2: Access Control System (ACS) I. EMC-64 Control Panel – monitors and controls EMRI-3 boards)

II. EMRI-3N Reader Interface Boards (connects to all peripheral devices) III. Peripheral Devices (i.e. card readers, locks, door contacts, motion detectors, etc.)

2. Section 3: Video Management System (VMS)

I. Toshiba Laptop Computer (houses the VMS server software) II. Smart-VMS Server software (runs on the laptop and communicates to the cameras)

III. Peripheral Devices (i.e. the cameras)

3. Section 4: Communication Infrastructure (LAN – Local Area Network) I. HP 24-port Intelligent Router/Switch – PoE (Power over Ethernet)

II. Category-5e Ethernet cable III. Physical Connections (Cameras, EMC-64, Toshiba laptops, EMRI-3N boards

4. Section 5: Security Management System (SMS – oversees all system functions)

I. EMC-64 – Entry-Master Control Panel (monitors and controls EMRI-3 boards) II. Web-based Server software, which runs on the EMC-64

III. Toshiba Laptop, used as a workstation to access the Web-based SMS Software

1.2 OVERLAP OF SOME COMPONENTS

It should be noted that several of the system components “overlap” in functionality. This is because the systems are relatively small, as well as being completely isolated from any other system (i.e. the private network upon which the SMS, ACS and VMS systems operate is not connected to any outside network). Consequently, the same laptop that acts as the server for the video sub-system also acts as the workstation to log into the Entry-Master SMS. Likewise, the EMC-64 Access control panel acts as the main SMS server, in addition to acting as the ACS controller for the peripheral EMRI-3 reader interface boards.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

1.3 POWER CONSIDERATIONS

All components have been tested and configured to use 220V power. The EMC-64 panels have a switch that allows either 110V or 220V operation. The three EMC-64 panels supplied were all tested and configured to use 220V outlets.

The Access Control System (ACS) peripherals are all low-voltage components. 12VAC and 24VAC transformers are used to power the ACS peripherals, and will be covered in detail in their respective sections. Although the 12V and 24V transformers are configured for 110V operation, there are sufficient numbers of 220V to 110V adapters (Part #: F-200W on the parts manifest) to convert these devices for use in 220V outlets.

2 ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM (ACS)

This section will describe all of the components of the ACS in detail, then will finish by showing how all of the components fit together as a single integrated component of the overall Security Management System (SMS) in Section 5.

2.1 EMRI-3 READER INTERFACE BOARD

The basic component of the ACS is the EMRI-3 reader interface board. All other peripherals that connect to equipment located at or near the door hardware are connected through the EMRI-3 board. Consider the drawing below:

As shown below, the EMRI-3 board is the “central hub” of all door devices in the ACS; as such, it has a connection to every component in the ACS, respective to the door(s) it is controlling (Note: a full-size drawing is attached as Appendix A).

2.1.1 EMRI-3 Power Connections

The EMRI-3 boards can be powered with AC or DC power, from 12V to 34V. However, if the EMRI-3 board is connected to a battery, then a 12VAC transformer is required. Voltages higher than 12V will cause the battery charging circuit on the EMRI-3 board to overheat. 12VAC 40VA transformers to power the EMRI-3 boards have been supplied. The Part # is MGT-1240.

Part Number F-200W 220V to 110V Adapter

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

Power, network and battery connections are shown below:

Please note that while the AC transformer has no polarity associated with it, the battery connector most definitely has polarity and will be damaged if (+) and (-) are not strictly adhered to.

2.1.2 Network and Peripheral Connections

These connections will be covered in the respective peripheral’s section.

2.2 INFRASTRUCTURE CABLING

With the exception of the Network, Power and Battery

connections, all other peripherals (which are all

located at each door location) are connected by a

special access control cable, known as a “composite

cable.”

A composite cable is a cable that consists of other

jacketed cables, each of which contain conductors that

have a specific purpose in an access control system. To

the right is a cut-away picture of a composite cable:

Inside each of the “striped” cables are individually colored conductors, which are used to connect the peripherals to the EMRI-3 board.

2.3 CARD READERS (PROX READERS)

Card Readers use the Yellow Stripe cable, per the picture to the right. It is important to note that the Drain Wire, which is the bare wire with no colored outer jacket, must connected to the Ground (Black) wire at one end only. If the drain wire is either left unconnected OR is connected at both ends, the card reader will intermittently misread cards. It is very important to connect the drain wire to the Ground wire at one end (only). The distance from a card reader to an EMRI-3 board should never exceed 80 meters.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

It is also important to note that ALL wiring to the EMRI-3 boards, including the card reader wires, are opposite between

the left and right sides of the board. This is so Reader 1 and Reader 2 can be swapped, without having to re-wire them.

See the diagram below:

2.4 MOTION DETECTORS (PIRS)

Motion Detectors (also called “PIRs” which stands for “Passive Infra-Red”) use the Red Stripe cable, per the picture to the right.

Motion Detectors use the Red and Black wires for power (from the EMRI-3 board) and Green and White for signal. The Green and White wires are connected to the Normally-Open (N/O) connections of a relay inside the PIR that activates when motion is detected. When the EMRI-3 board senses that the Green and White wires are “shorted” by the N/O relay, it sends a signal to unlock the door.

See the examples of Reader 1 and Reader 2 PIR connections):

Magnetic Locks

Please note that in the diagrams above, the PIRs are being powered by the EMRI-3 board, and the Green wires are connected to Ground on the EMRI-3 side, and to the “R” connection on the PIR (see photo on next page). The White wires are connected to “C2” for Reader 1 and “C10” for Reader 2 on the EMRI-3 board, and are connected on the “NO” (Normally Open) connectors on both PIRs.

Motion Detector (PIR) connections to the EMRI-3 board for Reader 1 Motion Detector (PIR) connections to the EMRI-3 board for Reader 2

Reader 1 Connections are “upside down” from Reader connections! This is done on purpose, so that the Readers can be swapped without re-wiring.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

Below are photos of how the PIR wires are connected at the PIR end:

Also, note the DIP Switch settings – set all PIRs this way.

2.5 MAGNETIC LOCKS (MAG-LOCKS)

Magnetic Locks (Mag-locks) are the only peripheral devices in the ACS that are not directly powered by the EMRI-3 board, but rather are powered by an external power supply.

Power Supply for Mag-locks – Note that CODAT & CDCZ Sites use Model SMP-5 – CDC Sites use Model SMP-3

Lock Power Wire – Note that only Red & Black are used for Locks Green & White are used for Door Contacts



6

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

The Ground (or negative) lead of the power supply connects directly to the Negative lead of the Mag-lock. The Positive (or V+) lead of the power supply runs through one of the Relay Outputs of the EMRI-3 board (see the diagram below).

Mag-lock connections for EMRI-3 Reader 1 and Reader 2 using External Power Supply

The connections at the Mag-lock

end are shown in the picture at

the right. Please note that there

must be a reverse-bias diode

connected at the Mag-lock end.

This is the most important

connection in the entire system.

The EMRI board will malfunction

intermittently if there is no diode

installed on each Mag-lock AND

each Lock Strike.

2.6 DOOR CONTACTS (D/CS)

Each door connected to an EMRI-3 board has a door

contact, which indicates to the EMRI-3 board the position

of the door (opened or closed). The Purple Stripe wire is

used for Door Contacts; the Green and White conductors

are used (with the Red/Black pair being used for the Lock

Device).

There are two components to a Door Contact (commonly

referred to as simply, “D/C” or “d/c” – the magnet

component and the relay component. The magnet

component is installed on the door itself; it simply

contains a magnet, and requires neither power nor wires.

The relay component, as its name suggests, contains a

micro-relay, has two wire connections that connect to the

EMRI-3 board, and is installed opposite to the magnet

component on the door frame.

On the EMRI-3 board, the D/C White wire is connected to input “C1” on the Reader 1 side, and connected to “C9” on the

Reader 2 side of the board. The D/C Green wires are connected to “Gnd” (see the drawing below):

EMRI-3 board Door Contact (D/C) Connections – Input C1 for Reader 1 and Input C9 for Reader 2

The door contacts on each door connected to an EMRI-3 board is programmed to report a “Door Left Open” (also known as a “Door Prop” alarm; however, there were no annunciators (sirens or buzzers) specified, and although the system can send e-mail alerts when an alarm occurs, this feature has not been implemented because the network upon which the system resides has no connection to the outside world, rendering the e-mail alert feature unusable.

2.7 LOCK STRIKES

There are six (6) Lock Strikes in the H3 Program: four (4) are located at the CODAT site, and one (1) at each of the two CDCZ sites. The Lock Strikes are “Fail-Secure” devices; that is to say, they require power to unlock them, as opposed to mag-locks, which require power to keep them locked. These devices are 12VDC and are powered from the EMRI-3 boards.

Because they draw their power to unlock directly from the EMRI-3 board, they are wired slightly differently than magnetic locks. See the diagram below:

Lock Strikes connected to the EMRI-3 board – Strikes Receiving their power from the EMRI-3 board

Please note that there must be a reverse-bias diode connected at the Lock-Strike end. This is the most important

connection in the entire system. The EMRI-3 board will malfunction intermittently if there is no diode installed on each

Lock-Strike-lock AND each Mag-lock.

To be clear, the NEGATIVE side of the diode (the end with the stripe) must be connected to the POSITIVE side of the Lock-Strike (that is why it is called a “reversed-bias” diode). To learn more about reverse-bias diodes in inductive circuits, go to www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/semiconductors/chpt-3/inductor-commutating-circuits/.

Conversely, the POSITIVE side of the diode (the non-striped end) must be connected to the NEGATIVE side of the Lock Strike, such that the ends of the diode are connected in parallel with the power wires going into the power connector of the Lock Strike. This is identical to the connection to a mag-lock’s power, discussed earlier in this document.

2.8 BATTERIES

Lead Acid 12VDC 7AH batteries have been provided to provide temporary backup power to the ACS components and peripherals in the event of a power outage. On average, a 7AH (i.e. 7 Amp-Hour) battery will allow an EMRI-3 board to operate for 12-14 hours without primary power, but the backup time is highly dependent upon current draw from the various components drawing power from the board. A single battery can provide backup power for multiple EMRI-3 boards; however, the more devices connected to the battery necessarily reduces the backup time in proportion to how many devices and their average current draw. The only other components requiring a battery backup are the SMP-3 and SMP-5 power supplies, which provide backup power to the mag-locks. Diagrams and pictures are on the following page.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

If a battery is to be connected to an EMRI-3 board, it is

imperative that the EMRI-3 board be powered with a 12VAC

transformer (and NOT the 24VAC transformers)! Using a

transformer rated higher than 12V (AC or DC) will cause the

battery charging circuit on the EMRI-3 board to overheat. If

this does occur, it will usually only damage the battery circuit;

other functions of the board should be unaffected (you will

get to see some blue smoke, however).

The drawings below illustrate how to connect a battery, both

to an EMRI-3 board, as well as to an SMP-3 or SMP-5 power

supply. In both cases, polarity must be adhered to.

2.9 CRIMPERS AND CONNECTORS

There are several connectors that are included in the Miscellaneous Items Bag at each H3 Site. It is vitally important that these connections be made properly, with the correct tools. Failure to follow these guidelines will cause an otherwise “state-of-the-art” system to be a “state-of-the-art” headache, as poorly crimped connectors will cause intermittent short-circuits, and sometimes even cause damage to the equipment. Carefully ensuring that system connections are made cleanly and properly will save many wasted hours of frustration and system debugging.

On the following page, there are pictures of the various connectors included in the H3 Miscellaneous Package Kit, as well as the proper crimp tool that should be used to ensure good, proper connections.

2.9.1 Crimp Tool

Proper tools ensure proper system operation. The picture to the right depicts the proper tool to use for crimping the connectors provided for this project.

The picture below that is the part of the crimp tool that should be used to crimp all of the connectors that are provided as part of this project.

The connector should be crimped firmly, but not so hard as to damage the outer jacket, or crush the inner metal portion of the connector.

2.9.2 Butt-splices

Butt-splices are used to provide in-line connection of wires to connect components together. The reason for the term “butt-splice” is that the device allows the ends of two wires to be “butted together” without folding the wires over one another. This is useful in many wiring situations.

To the left is a butt-splice that has one end crimped, with the

other end ready to be crimped. Note how much of the wire

is exposed, and that that the end of the exposed conductor is

cut at a diagonal angle.

The diagonal angle makes it easier to insert the wire into the

butt-splice. Note that no bare conductor is exposed at either

end of the butt-splice.

Also note that both ends of the splice are crimped firmly, but

not enough to crush the outer jacket. It will take a few tries,

but eventually the correct amount of pressure to exert will

be learned.

Once the crimp is complete, gently, but firmly tug on both

ends of the crimp, to ensure that the connection is solid and

stable.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

2.9.3 Stake-Ons

Stake-Ons are used to connect peripheral conductors to equipment with specific connections, such as a terminal block or battery stake. As with butt-splices, crimping Stake-Ons properly is a great way to avoid pesky problems. There are two type of Stake-Ons used in the H3 Sites:

• Regular Stake-Ons

• Battery Stake-Ons

2.9.4 Phoenix Connectors

The Phoenix connector is the type of connector used on the EMRI-3

board. It is a commonly used connector, because of its durability and

flexibility. However, as with all connectors, Phoenix connectors work

better when implemented properly.

There should never be any wires protruding from the connector; if there are wires protruding, then the wire needs to be re-stripped.

2.10 MISCELLANEOUS NOTES

2.10.1 EMRI-3 Board Orientation

The EMRI-3 boards can be oriented in any way desired; but, it is recommended that they be oriented such that power and communications are at the top, with Readers 1 and 2 connections at the left and right, respectively, and with input connections C1 through C12 at the bottom. Orienting the boards in this standard fashion makes remote trouble-shooting less confusing and more effective.

2.10.2 Reader Voltage Jumpers

Both Readers 1 and 2 have voltage jumpers associated with them, to enable 5VDC or 12VDC operation. The jumpers are factory-set, such that each reader jumper is set on the two right-most of the three pins (see the diagram to the right):

The 5VDC setting is for older readers, and is set by moving the jumper to the two left-most pins; however, since practically all of the newest models of readers can use any voltage between 5VDC and 16VDC, the 12VDC setting is preferred.

2.10.3 Reversed-biased Diodes

By now, you are probably sick of hearing about using reversed-bias diodes on inductive coils (such as mag-locks, lock strikes or isolation relays). However, its importance cannot be over-stated, since the reversed-bias diode is the most important connection in the entire system. Failure to properly connect a diode to the locking mechanism is the most common problem reported with the system.

To be clear, the NEGATIVE side of the diode (the end with the stripe) must be connected to the POSITIVE side of the Lock-Strike (that is why it is called a “reversed-bias” diode). To learn more about reverse-bias diodes in inductive circuits, go to www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/semiconductors/chpt-3/inductor-commutating-circuits/.

Conversely, the POSITIVE side of the diode (the non-striped end) must be connected to the NEGATIVE side of the Lock Strike, such that the ends of the diode are connected in parallel with the power wires going into the power connector of the Lock Strike.

2.10.4 CODAT and CDCZ Reader #6

Please note that the CODAT and CDCZ sites Board #3, right-side reader (Reader #6) is not configured, and thus will not function. However, it is possible to activate it through the Entry-Master access control software.

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

2.10.5 Electrical Outlet Installation

The 220VAC electrical outlets used to power the access control components should be mounted within the enclosures provided for each site (see the diagram to the right).

A single duplex outlet should be adequate for all power needs, since at most, two F-200W power adapters (shown below) is all that should be needed: one to power the EMRI-3 boards (by plugging a 12VAC transformer in to an F-200W adapter), and one to power the lock power supply (either an SMP-3 or SMP-5), by plugging a 24VAC transformer in to a second FW-200W adapter.

Installing the outlets within the locked enclosures will ensure that the equipment inside is not left vulnerable to being unplugged.

2.10.6 CDC Site Card Programming

The CDC Sites are not equipped with, nor connected to, an access control panel. Under normal circumstances, an access control panel is present (either hard-wired or networked) to load the EMRI-3 board with its access control databases and rules, as well as to collect the activity happening at the doors.

Since the EMRI-3 boards at the CDC sites are not connected to any network, other than the isolated, self-contained network that interconnects the Video Management System (VMS) and the Access Control System (ACS) at each site, the EMRI-3 boards can only receive their programming by uploading an XML file from the laptop used to run the VMS.

The XML file is generated by executing a menu option in the Entry-Master Security Management System, from one of the ACS panels located in either the CODAT or CDCZ sites. The software has a utility, specially designed for the H3 Project, which creates an XML file, and allows the user to download it to the VMS laptop, then copy the file to a USB-drive.

The XML file is relatively small in size (less than 500KB), so that it will fit easily onto any USB storage device, regardless of its capacity, and contains all of the programming information and access rules necessary for the EMRI-3 board to properly perform its functions.

Once the USB device is delivered to any one of the CDC sites, it is plugged into the VMS laptop and the XML file is copied from the USB device to a specific folder on the VMS laptop. At that time, a procedure is performed (i.e. executing a piece of software that has been pre-loaded and configured on each of the CDC VMS laptops), and the appropriate access control data for that particular CDC site is extracted from the XML file and uploaded to the CDC EMRI-3 board.

Detailed instructions for both download and upload procedures to process the XML file transfer are covered, in Section 5: Security Management System, later in this document.

Initially, all six CDC Site locations have all of their respective access cards pre-programmed into their respective EMRI-3 boards, such that all cards are allowed into each of their respective CDC access doors 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Part Number F-200W 220V to 110V Adapter

Recommended Location

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Since its initial delivery and deployment, the overall system configuration has undergone some changes.

The number of sites has changed, with the six (6) CDC Sites being reduced to two (2) sites. As of the date of this document, no alternate name has been given to these sites; so presently, they will still be referred to as CDC Sites, even though there are only two.

3 VIDEO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (VMS)

This section will describe all of the components of the VMS in detail; later, in Section 5, this document will show how all of the components fit together in the overall Security Management System (SMS).

3.1 IP-CAMERAS

The basic component of the VMS is the IP-Camera. The most common IP-cameras use Power over Ethernet (PoE), which utilizes a PoE switch to receive its power, thus creating a much simpler power/data solution for cameras than legacy cameras, which required an additional wire to provide power to the cameras. All of the cameras supplied for the H3 Project are PoE cameras.

3.2 CAMERA TYPES

Although there are many different types of cameras, only two (2) types have been supplied for the H3 Project: Dome Cameras and Bullet Cameras.

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE SUB-SECTION ON CAMERAS BEFORE UNWRAPPING AND HANDLING THE CAMERAS.

3.2.1 Dome Cameras

Dome cameras are probably the most popular camera type, since it is not immediately apparent where they are pointing, and this makes attempting to evade them more difficult. The model of dome camera supplied for the H3 Program is the Hikvision Model DS-2CD2112F-I, as shown to the right.

It is very important to NOT touch the outer dome of the camera with bare hands, because the oils from human skin will smudge the dome. The smudging will not be visible in the light, but will almost completely obscure the camera view when it is operating in the dark, using Infra-Red (IR) mode.

If possible, use gloves when handling the cameras and leave the sticky plastic sheet on the camera until it is completely installed and ready to put into service.

3.2.2 Bullet Cameras

Bullet cameras are typically used in harsh, outdoor environments or in locations where a longer range of camera coverage is needed. The model of dome camera supplied for the H3 Program is the Hikvision Model DS-2CD4224F-IZH, as shown to the right.

As with dome cameras, great care should be taken not to touch the front glass in front of the lens with bare fingers; the smudging will not be noticeable until the camera is viewed in IR mode, at which point the camera view could be significantly obscured by fingerprints.

If possible, use gloves when handling the cameras and leave the sticky plastic sheet on the camera until it is completely installed and ready to put into service.



15

EMS Doc#: 160347-3

3.3 CAMERA IP ADDRESSES

All of the cameras associated with the H3 Program have had their IP Addresses pre-configured. The cameras have all been labeled as to which camera it is, as well as their IP Addresses. The cameras are truly “plug and play” – they only need to be plugged into the supplied PoE network switch, and they should communicate with their associated VMS laptop.

The IP-addressing scheme and system cabling overview will be covered in Section 4: Communication Infrastructure, later in this document.

3.4 VIDEO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (VMS) LAPTOPS

Of the five (5) H3 Program sites (CODAT, the two CDCZ and two CDC sites), each has a VMS laptop. The model number is Toshiba Satellite S50-C (see figure at right). These laptops are loaded with SmartVMS Video Management Software. All nine systems are pre-configured, such that the laptop and associated cameras only need be plugged in to the supplied PoE network switch, and the video subsystem should initialize and function automatically.

It should be noted that each laptop is setup, such that there is no login necessary; the laptop “auto” logs in and initiates the VMS software upon start-up. It is vital that the system NOT require a login to be processed by a human; otherwise the VMS will not record video until a user-login is processed. This will most likely result in lost video footage, due to the fact that whenever the system is re-booted, a person has to login before the VMS software will start. The system periodically reboots itself, in order to run database diagnostics, which cannot be performed while the databases are open.

For this reason, the system is designed to auto-login upon boot-up and should not be altered.

4 COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE

This section will illustrate and describe how the subsystems physically connect to one another.

4.1 NETWORK SWITCHES

The network switches supplied for the H3 Program were provided by Northrop-Grumman Overseas Service Corporation; they are Cisco Model WSC2960-24PC-L (shown at right). The network switches support PoE and are configured to be “plug and play.”

Each network switch is the “central hub” of all communications between subsystems and their components.

Subsection 4.4 below will illustrate how all of the components interconnect.

Since the network switches were supplied by Northrup-Grumman, they are not covered in detail in this document. Any questions or issues which arise with the network switches should be addressed with Northrup-Grumman Overseas Service Corporation.

4.2 IP-CAMERA CABLING

All cameras provided for the H3 Program are PoE cameras, which means that they are “Power over Ethernet” – they are powered from a network switch, which also provides the cameras with connectivity to the Local Area Network (LAN). Sufficient Category-5e (Cat-5e) Ethernet cabling has been provided for each site, and they should have RJ-45 connectors crimped on each end, as shown to the right.

4.3 CRIMPING THE ETHERNET VIDEO CABLES

As with the Access Control Composite cabling discussed earlier, proper crimping of the Ethernet video cables will avoid the chronic issues associated with poor crimping techniques.

The Internet is replete with Ethernet cabling techniques and tutorials, so this document will not detail the procedures for crimping RJ-45 Ethernet cables.

Two such tutorials can be found at the following URLs:

http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/6892/1 and

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Rxu07WkGew

Suffice it to say that if the outer blue jacket is not a few millimeters inside the plastic edge of the RJ-45 connector, the cable-end should be re-crimped.

5 SECURITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

This section will describe how all of the “sub-system” components connect together and operate as a single integrated, comprehensive Security Management System.

5.1 EMC-64 CONTROL PANEL

In Section 2.1 the EMRI-3 board is described as “the ‘central’ hub of all door devices in the ACS.”

In light of that statement, the EMC-64 Control Panel can be described as the “back-bone” and the “central nervous system” of the overall Security Management System. Just as all door devices connect to EMRI-3 boards, all other peripherals (including EMRI-3 boards) connect to the EMC-64 Control Panel.

The EMC-64 Control Panel acts as the central control point to the Access Control, Video and Communication Infrastructure sub-systems, and is the “gateway” to user access to the overall system and its functions.

5.2 ENTRY-MASTER V5.1.2 ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM

The “brains” of the EMC-64 Control Panel is the Entry-Master v5.1.2 Access Control System software sub-system.

The Entry-Master v5.1.2 system can be viewed with a standard browser. This makes the system easy to learn and use, reducing the time and cost of training new system operator.

The result is a progressive Security Management system that is flexible, yet easy to understand and operate.

The v5.1.2 software is embedded in the EMC-64 Control Panel. The core software system consists of server and process control modules, which together perform the following functions:

• Services web requests from operators

• Interfaces to the Video sub-system to provide integration to the IP-Cameras

• Monitors, programs and controls the EMRI-3 boards, which in turn control access to all of the Access Control System doors

• Provides audit reporting of operator logins, system events and database maintenance logs

5.3 TYING IT ALL TOGETHER

Put simply, the entire system is physically connected to the Cisco Network Switch covered in Section 4.1.

The list of devices connected to the Network Switch are:

1. The VMS laptop, which functions as both Video Server to the IP-Cameras, as well as a workstation to access the Entry-Master Security Management System software

2. The IP-Cameras, which stream their video data back to the VMS Server, running on the VMS Laptop

3. The EMC-64 Control Panel, which communicates to the VMS server and the EMRI-3 boards

4. The EMRI-3 boards, which control access to the controlled card readers and doors, receive their programming and communicate card reader and door activity to the EMC-64 Control Panel

This is a “closed-network” system, meaning that the network is self-contained (similar to a SCIF) and does not connect to any outside network.

Additionally, all the IP-Addresses of all of the equipment connected to the Cisco Network Switch are identical to one another; meaning that, as an example, EMRI-3 board #2 could be moved between sites (as long as it replaces EMRI-3 board #2), and still function properly, as long as the system to which it was added had two functions performed on it:

1. The card database was downloaded to the newly connected EMRI-3 board (to wipe out the card database that exists on the EMRI-3 board and program in the card database from the presently connected EMC-64 Panel; and

2. Re-boot the EMC-64 Panel, to load the EMRI-3 board’s parameters from the presently connected EMC-64 Panel (the Use New System Parameters function could be used, as well; but it is much easier and cleaner to re-boot the EMC-64 Panel).

For more Information on the Use New System Parameters function, see Chapter 2 – Introduction section of the Entry-Master On-line User’s Manual, located at www.entrymaster.com.

As a second example, IP-Camera #3 could be moved from any site to any other site (as long as it replaces IP-Camera #3), because the IP-Addresses of each site’s devices are programmed identically, and it was for this reason the systems were setup in this fashion: easy replacement.
