Safe deposit boxes - SmartRelay 3 system
Safe deposit box systems are used by a variety of users. Only authorised persons should be able to open their designated deposit boxes. Deposit box systems are not always installed in areas protected from the weather. Suppliers, deliverers and a selected group of people should be able to access all deposit boxes. Some people may need to be able to open several deposit boxes.
The existing connections to open the locking system can be actuated with the SmartOutput modules, no matter whether a direct or alternating current is used. The SmartOutput modules are connected in parallel for this purpose. The address can be configured individually on each SmartOutput module. This allows up to fifteen SmartOutput modules with eight outputs each to be connected to the system (except the last module, which supports only four relays). The deposit box is opened as soon as the controller receives an opening command to the corresponding relay.
Identification media can be authorised for individual relays and, consequently, individual deposit boxes in LSM. However, it is also possible to group identification media together, for a department, for example, and authorise this group to use a single relay, in a departmental deposit box. Identification medium verification means you can trace which of the group's identification media has operated the relay (and taken documents, for example). If individual persons are supposed to be able to open a number of deposit boxes, relays can be grouped – in different trust levels, for example. The group of authorised persons becomes smaller as the trust level increases.
There are two options for installing the reader:
- The reader is installed in an existing housing – in an intercom housing, for example. This variant is hidden from view and offers effective protection against the weather, vandalism and sabotage.
- The reader is fitted on the wall. This variant is visible on the outside and makes it easier for users to place their identification medium onto the reader. The read range is better compared to a reader fitted inside the housing. If the reader is installed outdoors, protection against the weather, vandalism and sabotage can be assured with the protective housing (SREL2.COVER1).
A master identification medium can be created for emergencies. This can be used to open several or all boxes at the same time.
The controller can be powered either via an external power supply unit or via the network line. The controller, in turn, can power the reader. If the voltage drop is too great, the reader can also be supplied by an external power supply unit (see External power supply).
