ACT Smart User & Installation
The ACTSmart family consists of Proximity only, Pin and Proximity and PIN only units. Each ACTSmart can operate in standalone mode. Up to 8 ACTSmart devices can be connected on a RS485 network. The ACTSmart will support 500 Card Holders and/or 500 PIN users. Each unit is contained in a rugged polycarbonate housing, with stainless steel keys and potted electronics, allowing for indoor and outdoor installation.
Programming the unit is achieved via the keys and LED. For quick and easy installation, the ACTSmart has a default configuration, which is suitable for most installations requiring only the Programming Code to be changed, and the cards programmed into the system. Using the Card Batch method, cards can be programmed into the ACTSmart very quickly. ACT recommends that the user keep track of the Cardholders and PIN users on the system by using the User List at the end of the manual. Make copies of this sheet and enter each Users details on it. This will allow users to be deleted later on, even if a card is lost or a user forgets their PIN code.
To improve security, PIN codes may be up to 8 digits in length. Normally only card users are allowed access through the ACTSmart PIN and Prox unit. For maximum security, the unit may be programmed to require all users to enter a PIN code after presenting a card. For lower security applications, another programming options allows access to PIN only users. A duress code feature is also available
The built-in inputs and outputs are programmable, allowing the ACTSmart to be used in a wide variety of applications from simple door access, to cash offices and fire exits. Each unit also has built-in tamper monitoring for improved security.
