1. Introduction
This document contains a description and instructions for installing and operating your Castle
controller.
The Castle controller is designed for operating in Castle access control system (ACS).
Each controller can control a turnstile, electromechanical swing gate, sliding gate, barrier or two
doors, depending on the settings.
Each controller immediately responds to an access request (reading a card,
pressing a button, etc.).
This property does not depend on the number of controllers in the system,
communication quality, number of personnel, and link range.
Regardless of whether connection to the system server is established, the controller itself makes a
decision on granting or denying access based on database keys and access conditions, which are
stored in the controller's non-volatile memory.
All registered events are stored in the controller's non-volatile memory. Date and time of the event
are registered according to embedded real-time clock readings. If you have a connection to the
server, events are automatically sent to the ACS server.
This ensures maximum system reliability, controllers' independence from the server, and the speed,
with which the controller responds to events.
The Castle controller is certified for compliance with the following standards:
●GOST R 51241-2008. Access control systems and facilities.
●GOST R 50009-2000. Electromagneticcompatibility of technical equipment. Security
alarmhardware.
●GOST R 51317.6.1-99 (IEC 61000-6-1-97). Electromagnetic compatibility of technical
equipment. Electromagnetic immunity of technical equipment used in residential,
commercial and industrial areas with low power consumption.
●GOST R 51317.6.3-99 (CISPR/IEC 61000-6-3-96). Electromagnetic compatibility of
technical equipment. Emission from technical equipment used in residential, commercial
and industrial areas with low power consumption.
The certificate of conformity ROSS.RU.ME63.B03297.
The manufacturer is responsible for the accuracy of the documents and is obliged to provide an
updated edition of this documentation ifsignificant modifications in the product design will occur.
The manufacturer does not guarantee the performance of the product if
installation and operation requirements described herein are not met.
