first card open function, super card and super password function, M1 card
encryption, online upgrade function and remote control of the doors
Supports tamper-proof alarm for card reader, alarm for door not secured, force
opening door alarm, alarm for door opening timeout, duress card and code alarm,
blacklist alarm and alarm for illegal card swiping attempts reaching the limit
The alarm input of controller supports short circuit protection function and
cut-proof function
Multiple event upload methods: channel, center group, and listening
50 event and card linkages
IP address conflict detection
Cross-controller anti-passing back function (For cross-controller anti-passing back
based on card, wire the card reader with RS-485. For cross-controller anti-passing
back based on network, connect the server and device properly. Up to 5000 cards’

DS-K2600 Series Access Controller
