DISTRIBUTED INTELLIGENCE
MFLEX™ Access Control is a fully distributed intelligence system, meaning that all changes and system configurations made are stored locally at the door or entrance control unit giving full secure door access control even when doors are offline. Each single door or entrance can have 1 or 2 card readers for entry and optional exit purposes. The secured doors are connected by a low cost dedicated cable network, the length of which can be up to 1200M. Each door or entrance is controlled by a local Door Control Unit (DCU) which allows the connection of all the door facilities such as readers, local power supply, exit request button, magnetic door contact, fire release and electric locking. Door Control Units can be networked together simply by RS485 5-wire cabling through MTECC LAN / WAN IP-485 or USB-485 interface adapters, for some or all of the system doors. With the correct LAN / WAN IP infrastructure, parts of your overall system can be segmented, in other buildings or geographic locations.

EASE OF ADMINISTRATION

The MFLEX™ Access Control Software is only ever installed on one local Windows PC for maximum security and simplicity. Multiple web browsers can connect locally or remotely by virtue of the built-in 'private cloud' web server. Remote workstations can then simply connect using there favoured internet browser, mobile smart phone or tablet device with no additional software or application installation needed. All administrative functions requested from any device are protected by strong authentication means.

♦ Door access control event audit reporting
♦ Time clocking reporting
♦ Door alarms and physical security risk reporting
♦ Presence (who's on-site) reporting

INTRUDER ALARM ARMING
Being able to use the same access control card or tag to open you secure doors and arm / disarm your intruder alarm systems is an option. Our duoTECH dual technology media will permit common card or tag use across popular intruder alarm systems, such as Texecom, Galaxy or Pyronix in addition to your access controlled doors.

MFLEX™ DOOR CONTROL UNIT
The local door control unit (DCU) acts as a termination point for all the door facilities and allows the dedicated network to be passed on to the next door or entrance. The management PC is connected to this door network from a single USB port or over IP socket means. If the management PC belongs to a local network, other browsers can connect and manage the system. If connected to the Internet, you can also administrate and monitor your system from a computer or smart device anywhere in the world.

The compact door control unit housing is only 122mm x 156mm x 32mm, so fitting this locally to the door or inside a metal power supply case is simplicity itself. Do not let the small size fool you however, as each door control unit has the capability of managing two door readers, exit request button, door monitor contact, electric locking device, local door alarm and up to 4000 card or key- tag holders at each secured door or entrance. The door control unit also maintains its own clock and calendar, and has the capacity to store 1100 past events locally if the door is taken offline from the host software for any reason. Each door or entrance can actively operate in one of four security modes, no access, proximity card access, proximity card + PIN access and door unlocked free access. The security mode of any door can change actively minute-by-minute, day-by-day by use of simple programmable door schedules that operate online or offline once set.
