Access
Managing access and unlocking the electric door lock is one of the basic functions of the device. The device manages access based on the evaluation of access requests according to the predefined access rules. Having considered a request legitimate, the device activates the door switch that controls the electric door lock. This will unlock the door.
In addition to conventional user authentication methods (RFID card, biometrics, Bluetooth, etc.), the switch can also be activated using external signals and interfaces, which provides flexible integration and automation options. Different ways of door switch activation are described below:
User Authentication
