Overview

The HID VertX™ products provide a complete and fully featured hardware/firmware infrastructure for OEM access control software host systems, communicating via industry standard TCP/IP protocol, over 10/100 Mbps Ethernet or the Internet. The V1000 boasts a 32-bit RISC processor running the Linux Operating System. On-board flash memory allows program updates to be downloaded via the network. The V1000 connects up to 32 Door/Reader, Input Monitor, or Output Control Interfaces via two independent RS-485 networks, each network having two sets of input connections for optimum system topology. This architecture minimizes the impact on corporate LANs by using only one TCP/IP address for every 32 interfaces, and by handling low-level transactions on the RS-485 network.

Key Features

• Stores a complete access control and configuration database for up to 32 Reader Interfaces (up to 64 doors) and 44,000 cardholders with expansion capability up to 250,000 cardholders.
   
• The access control system interfaces with combinations of devices with a maximum of:
  • 32 Door/Reader interfaces (up to 64 doors/readers) or
  • 32 input monitor interfaces 9 (up to 512 monitor points) or
  • 32 output control interfaces (up to 384 control relays)
     
• Reports supervised inputs/alarms with 255 priorities.
  Includes an HTTP API, Windows® DLL API, and direct communication API.
• Allows local connection of a laptop computer for diagnostics and configuration.
• Connects to the host and other devices on a TCP/IP network.
• Receives and processes real time commands from the host software application.
• Reports all activity to the host.
• Controls and communicates with all connected devices.
• Buffers offline transactions and uploads to the host when communication is restored.
• Allows fallback communications via dialup or RF modem if TCP/IP network communication is lost.
• UL 294 and UL 1076 recognized component.
