New
Orleans, LA, Apr. 7, 2008 / Home Automation, Inc./ --
HAI (Home Automation, Inc.), leading manufacturer of
integrated automation and security products since 1985,
announced today that it will be shipping a new line of
Access Control products to compliment its award-winning
home control systems. The new Access Control products
will begin shipping in the Second Quarter of 2008 and
will be demonstrated in HAI’s Booth 18120 this week at
the International Security Conference (ISC) in Las
Vegas, NV.
The new Access Control
product line will consist of a 125 KHz high security,
digitally encrypted, 26-Bit Wiegand proximity card
reader that connects to a serial port on an HAI Home
Control System. Up to 16 readers can be connected to a
serial port on the HAI Omni or Lumina family
controllers. The reader provides a read range of up to 4
inches with the HAI Access Control cards and up to 2
inches with the HAI Access Control key tags. The reader
incorporates an input for a push to exit button and an
output for an electric door strike or magnetic lock.
The reader has durable and scratch resistant
polycarbonate housing. Full epoxy potting ensures
successful operation even in harsh environments. It can
be mounted to metal door frame (mullion) or to any flat
wall surface. The two-color LED (green and red) and
Piezo sounder guarantee accurate and reliable Door
Access operations.
Users can use either a standard credit card sized Access
Control card or the convenient Access control keytag to
access the system. Each card is attached to a user code
in the HAI Omni or Lumina family controller which can be
managed with several privileges. Users can be granted
privileges based on time of day and day of week as well
as any other desired events. When a card is swiped it
can accomplish functions such as arming or disarming
security and opening a door strike.
HAI Access Control cards can also be tied in to any home
automation functions that the HAI Omni or Lumina family
controller is capable of including lighting, energy
management, surveillance, and audio. For example:
swiping a card can disarm the alarm, release the door
lock, light a pathway into the house, change the
temperature, and turn on several zones of a whole home
audio system, and select their volume and source. Each
swipe can perform as many actions as desired and these
results can be customized by time of day, arming
condition, or any other event the HAI home control
system is monitoring. Because each card or keytag is
tied to a specific user all of the actions can also be
customized for each individual user.
