Security Access Card Reader Application
The following basic steps are required when setting up the Security Access application. We will
list them first, and then go over each one in detail.
NOTE: This assumes you have at least one Isonas Card Reader installed, at least one access
card for the reader, and have installed the Isonas Crystal Access Administrator software on your
PC.
1)
Create a project in ControlWave Designer that includes a separate, fully-configured
SECURITY_ACCESS function block for each card reader handled by this
ControlWave. Download this project into the ControlWave controller.
2)
Configure a security database using Isonas Crystal Access Administrator software.
This database includes information on each door/reader, and person who will have
access to the door.
3)
Download the security database to the ControlWave controller.
Configuring the SECURITY_ACCESS function block
The SECURITY_ACCESS function block is
responsible for controlling a single Isonas
card reader. If you have multiple card readers
for this ControlWave, you must configure a
separate SECURITY_ACCESS function
block for each card reader. The function
block instance name must begin with
‘SEC_ACC’.
We will briefly discuss the parameters for the
SECURITY_ACCESS function block. You
should also consult the online help in
ControlWave Designer.
