An important component of any security system is the controller. As the main hardware
component in your access and security network, the primary function of the controller is to
maintain your facility’s integrity. Making countless decisions on access attempts in real-
time, it must be reliable, consistent and unfailing. The Advanced Central Controller (ACC)
provides all of these attributes.
The ACC is a high performance access control and security field panel. The ACC is in-
stalled as an essential component of a Siemens integrated access control and security so-
lution. The ACC is capable of hosting multiple access control and security applications from
a single panel, including access management for up to 64 doors and 1,000,000 cardhold-
ers.
The ACC processes all events locally, independent of the host system. This ensures sys-
tem integrity even in the unlikely event of communications failure with the host.
The ACC receives cardholder information from a connected Reader Interface Module (RIM)
when each access attempt is made. The ACC then verifies this information and if the ap-
propriate privileges have been assigned to the cardholder, the ACC permits the door to be
opened.
Description
The ACC can be programmed with up to 1,000,000 cardholders and will grant access when
a cardholder presents a valid access card at a secure door.
The ACC has been specially designed for maximum flexibility, and provides four separate
Field Level Network (FLN) channels. Each FLN is capable of hosting up to 16 local devices
for the control of access, monitoring input devices or controlling output devices.
The ACC hosts a diagnostic port that allows a direct connection to its microprocessor to facili-
tate the download of operating instructions (firmware). Firmware updates are made without
having to visit the controller cabinets.
To facilitate communications with the host system, the ACC provides a 10/100MB Ethernet
connection. This allows communications over any WAN or LAN where devices on the net-
work can be assigned a unique IP address. This type of communication ensures the fastest
possible transaction times between the host system and ACC field panels.
To ensure that the ACC always monitors the access and security of an enterprise, it provides a
port for the connection of a backup battery. During those times of power failure, the backup bat-
tery will permit the ACC to maintain the integrity of the access control and security system.
The ACC hosts a Tamper input that can be used to detect if the cabinet in which it has
been mounted has been opened. It also provides an alarm output to visually or audibly
sound an alarm when security has been breached.
