How To Setup Dahua Access Control

How To Setup Dahua Access Control The DHI-ASC3202B provides a single-interface access control solution that is accessible anywhere there is an internet connection. The controller has two modes: the main mode and the sub mode. The main mode allows the controller to serve as central management for all access control devices in a building or area. The sub mode allows additional controllers to be pooled into the main controller device list and networks card readers together.

Each controller controls up to two (2) doors but can be scalable up to 40 doors. The controller can be powered via PoE+ (IEEE802.3at), added to DMSS for remote door control, and ONVIF compliant to allow for third-party reader management.

Access Controller

> Bulit-in Web server, features main and sub control modes.

> The main control mode offers access control Platform functions,can connect with and manage up to 19 sub controllers. The sub-control modes can be added to multiple platforms.

> Supports 1000 users, 3000 fingerprints, and 300,000 records.

> Accesses card readers through Wiegand and RS-485 protocols.

> Supports TCP and IP connection, and standard PoE.

> Supplies power to the lock through its 12 VDC output power supply, which has a maximum output current of 1000 mA.

> Supports configuring the hardware I/O port and exporting configuration diagrams.

> Retains stored data even while powered off.
