WaveNet system - WaveNet
You can network SimonsVoss locks (locking cylinders, SmartHandles and SmartRelays) in a number of different ways and thus manage them centrally. WaveNet is the most advanced and convenient way to manage and monitor larger locking systems with many locks.
WaveNet (online) | Virtual networking (virtual) | No networking (offline) | |
|---|---|---|---|
Functional principle | Data transmission with networked WaveNet devices (see Transmission paths and Devices). | Data transmission with identification media (except programming data). | Data transmission with programming devices. |
Extension | WaveNet devices are connected via various transmission media. All types of data are transmitted using these transmission media. | In a virtual network, certain data is transferred to the identification media using a gateway (entries in the blacklist). If you operate this identification media on a virtually networked locking device, the data is transferred to the locking device. | Locking devices that are not networked can only exchange data with the programming device. You must go to the locking devices with the programming device. |
Programming effort | Low. | Low. | Effort depends on the size of the locking system.
|
Transmission speed of the data exchange | Immediately. Data exchange with different transmission media. | Speed between gateway and locking devices highly dependent on the intensity of use of the locking devices. Identification media are transmission media - no data transmission without identification. | Slow. |
Central activation/deactivation of locking devices | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Activation/deactivation centrally traceable | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Remote opening | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Remote monitoring (DoorMonitoring) | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Event management | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Access lists centrally retrievable | Possible. | Not possible (except SREL 3). | Not possible. |
Software/server independent protective functions | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
Immediate locking device system-wide response to critical situations (availability of protective functions, see I/O configuration and protection functions and RingCast) | Possible. | Not possible. | Not possible. |
WaveNet is a dedicated network that you can install and use in building automation with just a few cables. If you want to retrofit WaveNet, you can also use existing building networks such as a LAN. This is why WaveNet is not only suitable for equipping new buildings with a locking system (e.g. for flexibly used room units). WaveNet is also particularly suitable if you want to manage and control your existing SimonsVoss 3060 locking system online in existing buildings.
Networking types can be freely combined with one another as an alternative to full networking. For instance, you can virtually network the doors of the outer shell (= building envelope) and particularly critical locks (for example on server room doors) with your WaveNet and all other locking devices.
You can choose from various devices and transmission media depending on your specific situation (see Transmission paths). Data transmission in WaveNet largely depends on the transmission medium.
With your WaveNet and the IO functions (see I/O configuration and protection functions), you can optimise security or the precautions against danger levels far beyond the level of a mechanical locking system.
NOTE
WaveNet training and planning
WaveNet is a comprehensive solution that can be very well tailored to your requirements. If you want to fully exploit the potential of your WaveNet, you can attend a SimonsVoss Technologies GmbH WaveNet training course. You can also plan your WaveNet project together with a SimonsVoss technician and benefit from their many years of experience.
Further information on the devices, locks and LSM software can be found in the relevant manuals and quick guides on the SimonsVoss website (
