Matrix Systems Fault-Tolerant Door Controller
Aug 19, 2008 9:50 AM
When access control or alarm monitoring functions are threatened by a disabled common controller or network segment failure, the Matrix System Gateway Ethernet-to-485 converter/switch controller automatically maintains connections between the system’s third-tier intelligent door controllers and second-tier building controller. The system’s fail-over capability reroutes all communication to an alternate controller and allows the system to maintain higher-level access functions, regardless of a key component failure. In addition, it enables users to shut down building controllers in a hot-swap mode for routine maintenance without affecting the access control system. A fault-tolerance option is also now available with the supplier’s Frontier 5.7.5 access control software. Visit matrixsys.com.
