Keyless entry
Remain in control and guarantee your family
security.
This apartment kit is user friendly, easy to install, coupled
with style, durability and flexibility to respond to today's
challenges.
How it works
You arrive at your Apartment building and proceed to the foyer
door and present your card to gain access, you take a lift to the
appropriate floor and arrive at your apartment door, you present
your card approximately 10cm above the door lever handle, a
distinct click will be heard indicating that access is granted. A
courtesy light will illuminate the entry upon opening the door, you
insert your card into the slot of the stylish fascia plate adjacent
to the door to command the power management control for the room to
turn on a light scene including the heating, cooling and
ventilation system and if you have an optional security system it
will also turn off the alarm panel.
If you require additional cards for family simply insert the
security key into the cylinder and press the appropriate button on
the stylish fascia plate, a status of your request is illuminated
on the respective button, in turn you may wish to have the house
keeper's card deleted simply pressing the adjacent button, this
request will be illuminate on the respective button also.
System description
The freeing up of the wired communication loop and the
replacement of never ending batteries means that you can now afford
to centrally manage and monitor your apartment alarms on your
optional alarm panel to enhance your security and reduce your
liability.
The optional Floor/Area controllers on the base building system
are designed to accommodate 4096 apartments with a maximum of 12
dialers per system, communicating in contact ID back to a central
monitoring station.
The Rhine system takes the best of both worlds in access
control.
The old time and tested way in access control systems has always
been to wire the card readers and locks to a door controller to
insure the integrity of the security is not compromised.
The new technological way has introduced wireless communication
to send and receive information via radio waves.
The birth of the Rhine system has combined the old with the new
in a way of localizing the wired structure to maintain
uninterrupted power for extremely long duration and the use of
radio waves to communicate with the door controller.
By localizing the wired structure in its simplest form by the
way of a cable loom plug and play system to the door frame (DRM)
and the occupant present device (RSM), this innovate method
continually supplies power to these modules.
The communication to these modules including the door controller
(RCU) is with encrypted radio frequency wave (RF).
Bring together optional alarm panels from numerus apartments to
a central server via a network of floor/area controllers to the
building management computer or off site to a centralized
monitoring station.
System components
Door Reader Module (DRM)
This module provides the RFID MiFare reader, the Wi-Fi
connectivity and the electric mortise lock.
The electric mortise lock is fail secure with dead latch pin and
a key cylinder override, it have built in power transfer pins and
is able to monitor door status.
Room Service Module (RSM)
The stylish polished brass fascia plate is the card activation
management control of the apartment cards and the optional alarm
panel arming station, also when the module sensors that the
apartment is occupied it allows power to the non accentual
appliances.
Room Control Unit (RCU)
A combination of supplying uninterrupted power and Wi-Fi
communication is integrated into the apartment Rhine devices and
also may communicate to the optional floor/area controller via
Wi-Fi and networked to the central server. A courtesy light may
also be interfaced upon entry to allow the owner sufficient time to
activate the RSM.
Optional Floor/Area Controller
This device can be seen as a system controller that navigates
the Wi-Fi traffic from the apartments and the network's server.
Optional Server
The Linux server fulfils requests from the floor/area
controllers; it maintains the event register and monitors the
apartments alarm status in real time.
Optional Dialer
The dialer translates the current alarm events and passes these
events to an off site central monitoring station in contact ID via
the Public Telephone System Network and/or GPRS.
