Introduction
Cansec’s Via Universal Wireless Lock brings the benefits of wireless to virtually any access control
system. Unlike other wireless locks, it can be configured in under 5 minutes and does not require
a PDA, tablet or smart phone to initialize it. A few simple DIP switch settings and you are done.
The Via Lock operates with 125 kHz HID and AWID cards and supports all Wiegand formats up
to 64 bits. Locks communicate wirelessly to a Via Hub which can be located up to 70/170 ft (21/52
m) away in a typical office environment. Each Hub can support two Via Locks.
Three status LEDs on the reader make troubleshooting simple. The lock is powered by 4 AA batter-
ies which will last 1 to 2 years in a typical application (depending on setup).
Wiegand data is sent wirelessly to the Via Hub, which in turn sends the data to a Wiegand reader
port on the associated access control panel for verification. If the lock relay operates, indicating that
access is granted, the Hub will send a wireless unlock command to the reader at which the card was
presented.
The high quality ANSI Grade 1 cylindrical lockset is suitable for use on interior or exterior wood
or hollow metal doors from 1 3∕8” to 2” in thickness (35-51 mm).
