Powerful, high-quality, sophisticated
access control systems at prices that are much less than others? How
did Keri do it?
Lets
start with the world class hardware:
A RISC-based multiprocessor platform, resulting in the new PXL-500
Tiger II Controller, its companion SB-593 Expansion Board, and high
performance, low cost proximity readers.
The PXL-500 Tiger Controller has all of the functionality
needed to manage a single door, alarm output, and 2 reader ports.
A second door can be added when used with SB-593 Satellite Expansion
Board.
The SB-593 Satellite Expansion Board economically
provides second door control plus extra general purpose inputs and
outputs.
The PXL-500 Tiger II Controller Platform
The new PXL-500 Tiger II Controller platform has taken Keri's acclaimed
proximity-based access control system to the next level. Strong
enough to manage a 256 door network at a single site or 256 doors
per site at multiple sites, yet tame enough to handle a single door,
the PXL-500 continues Keri's tradition of flexibility and expandability.
UL/CSA CERTIFICATION: The PXL-500 is UL certified
under UL-508 (Control Equipment)
