System topology

System administration with a computer

The system can be managed with one of the administration programs. This solution requires connecting the APS mini Plus modules to a RS 485 BUS. For connection to a PC an appropriate converter (TCP/IP, USB, RS 232) is used.

APS Home

The APS Home can be used for the APS mini Plus system management. It provides resources to manage the access rights comfortly and to set up all the functional parameters of the APS mini modules. The application allows to use combined APS mini and APS mini Plus systems.

In the offline operating mode the communication is in progress only when configuring the parameters and uploading access rights. This mode is a typical solution for apartment houses with up to 748 users, where no need of events history is required. In the online operating mode the communcation with the modules is running permanently. The online connection allows e.g. remote door opening from a PC.

Advantages and disadvantages

• simple installation, quick management of the access rights, reader modules functional parameters setting, possibility to combine with APS mini system, remote door opening with a PC
• cannot be combined with APS 400 system, local single-user solution, SW extensions cannot be used

APS Administrator

The access rights can be also managed with APS Administrator, which allows integration with other TF systems (APS mini and APS 400). For initial settings of the reader module parameters the APS Reader program is used.

The connection assumes a permanent connection of the system to a server. The communication at a BUS is running permanently. The client - server architecture of this SW solution enables managing the access rights from other computers in the network. Furthermore all possible SW extensions can be used here, including the Time & Attendance and web applications.

Advantages and disadvantages

• transparent access rights management, possibility to combine with APS mini and APS 400 systems, multi-user SW solution, SW extensions usage enabled
• more complex installation, functional paramaters setting performed with APS Reader program separately
