Wyreless Access’ communications are robust. High power
transmitters and high sensitivity receivers using high frequencies
to get throughout an area, combined with Spread
Spectrum technology which sends the same data over
many frequencies simultaneously makes them reliable.
Messages are transmitted multiple times for assurance.
Additionally, the Wyreless Solutions
and Panel Interface Modules
are supervised. They talk to each
other regularly (every ten minutes
as shipped from the factory), more
often if needed. This supervisory
signal is called a Heartbeat. If, for
“I was concerned about whether
or not the frequency would allow
transmission through the concrete
and steel of our building. But…
By dramatically reducing the installation
time, the overall cost of the installed system
is lowered. A system using Wyreless Access
should always be less expensive than a
“wired” alternative.
When Bill Cody was adding access control to
several buildings at Fort Lewis he realized that
the cost of the hardware and software were
within reason but the installation cost was
three time the cost of the system. While seeking
an alternative, he learned about Wyreless
Uses Every Feature Of Any EAC System.
With Wyreless Access, the user can select any
brand of access control software and get all
of the features of that system plus the benefits
of wireless.
Using a RS-485 Partner allows one Panel
Interface Module to do 16 solutions.

If you don’t want workmen interrupting daily activities any
more than absolutely necessary, use Wyreless. All of the
devices required at a door for real time access control are

Wyreless Access is virtually uncompromisable. Several functions
are built into the firmware and software to thwart
any attempt to trick the lock into opening.
For starters, each message is 128 bit encrypted and has
many more bits than the bit stream from the access card.
Before transmission, the entire message is encrypted and
then spread by the Spread Spectrum algorithms. Because
each message is mixed with several Pseudo-Noise codes,
transmitted signals appear as noise to an eavesdropper.
any reason, this Heartbeat is interrupted, a trouble signal
is generated. So, within minutes, the user knows if
communications are ever lost.
To ensure absolute reliability, a test of every location
where the Panel Interface Module and a Wyreless Solution
is to be located will be made prior to installation.
This test will be done at one-half the transmission power
that will be used by the installed equipment. During
this test, sixteen thousand bits (making up hundreds of
messages) will be transmitted, received, retransmitted,
received and then compared. This “on-site” test will only
give a positive indication if more than 99% of all messages
made it through.
During installation, every Panel Interface Module and
associated Wyreless Solution will repeat a similar test
during a “Linking” process. This is done at 1/2 to 2/3 normal
power to reaffirm the ability to get more than 99%
of the messages through and assure excess capacity. The
units will not link unless these criteria are met.
nician can install one in about 30 to 60 minutes. Nothing
else is needed for full access control at the door.
One technician can install a wireless 16-door access control
system in a day or two whereas a wired 16-door system
would take about 16 working days and usually more.
Imagine what can be saved on a larger installation!
Access. He was happy to learn how cost-effective
it is and that it would work with his existing
access control system. So he installed it in several
buildings. The end result is a high-end security
system at a third of the cost.
“As Security Manager at Fort Lewis Army
base, I recommend this system to anyone looking
for quality and lower prices to upgrade
their new or existing systems… By using
Wyreless Access in our system, we ended up
with a high-end system at a third of the cost.”
Additionally, there is an internal, randomly generated address
(adopted by each Wyreless Solution and PIM pair)
that resides in the bit stream. These manipulations generate
several billion alternatives on each transmission. As
a result, the system is extremely secure.
Add to this the fact that a Wyreless Solution will not
respond to a correct “open” command unless it had requested
to be opened, it is apparent that the system’s security
is extremely robust.

Wyreless Access
control solutions
are used everywhere.
There are successful installations in most
every type of facility including universities,
airports, power companies, refineries,
hospitals, military bases, government
buildings and office buildings. Some
of these applications along with the problems
Wyreless Access solved are illustrated
below.
Universities
The Biola University security and facilities
staff wanted an on-line access
control system but couldn’t afford it.
They then learned about Wyreless Access.
They were skeptical so they
tested it in an existing building. After
a successful test, they installed it on
275 doors in the Hope Hall dormitory.
The result was an “on-line” system that
they could afford.
Hope Hall, Biola University, La Mirada,
CA.
Military Bases
The Head of Security at the Fort
Lewis Army Base at Fort Lewis,
Washington needed an access control
system. He priced out a system
and found the cost of the installation
to be three times the cost of the
equipment. That was unacceptable.
In looking for alternatives Wyreless
Access was discovered, tested then
installed in four buildings. It was
fast and inexpensive. The Head of
Security was so pleased he added
Wyreless to his base’s security
specifications for access control and
has been recommending it to other
bases interested in having a quality
system that installs quickly and
saves money.

Power Companies –
Gate Control
Many power companies are using
Wyreless Access solutions. One application
that is very cost-effective is controlling
gates around a plant. Using
wireless controls eliminates the need
to trench to the gate and can control a
gate up to 1000 feet away as is shown
on this gate at Wisconsin Electric.
Gate control at Wisconsin Electric,
Germantown, WI.
Gates can be controlled up to one mile
away with special gain or directional
antennae as was done for Qatar Gas
where trenching under pipelines and
through the desert was time and cost
prohibitive. Anytime trenching can be
avoided, the end user will save thousands
of dollars.
Qatar Gas, Qatar.
Airports
A major challenge when adding access
control at airport hangars is how to do
the people doors that are mounted into
the larger moveable doors. A functional
solution for adding access control to
these people doors is to use Wyreless
Access. It’s as simple as mounting a
Panel Interface Module on the wall then
connecting the PIM to the main control
panel and then changing the lock(s) on
the door(s).

Aurora, IL.
Office Buildings –
Elevator Control
If traveling cabling is needed to add access
control to an elevator cab, costs
can range from $2,600 to $13,000 per
cab to install the required cabling. Using
Wyreless Access to do the same job
saves thousands of dollars on every cab.
One of Prentiss Properties’ tenants,
wanted access control on the elevators
in their office building but didn’t have it
put it in due to the cost of adding traveling
cables – until they found Wyreless
Access. Then the cost fell within budget
and was done quickly.

Properties, Ltd. building, Chicago, IL.

Hospitals
The Veteran’s Administration Hospital
in Milwaukee wanted to add to their
existing EAC system quickly. Since no
wiring is needed with Wyreless Access
and it could be added in hours; it became
the solution of choice.
If a system is in need of a quick addition
whether it be a lock, strike, gate,
or elevator, Wyreless Access is the
fastest solution.
VA Hospital, Milwaukee, WI.
Factories and Warehouses
There are many reasons that Wyreless
Access is needed in warehouses and
factories. First wiring a warehouse or
factory is difficult due to high ceilings
and ongoing operations. High ceilings
require lifts and teams of installers to
complete the job. Users do not want
their operations disrupted.
At Alferi, the company management did
not want their product (spices) contaminated
and made unsalable by dust
and dirt from construction. They also
could not shut down during construction.
So they decided to install their
access control system using wireless.
Due to the limited debris created by
drilling a few holes at each door to install
the Wyreless solutions, they did
not contaminate any product and didn’t
have to shut down.

Chute, WI.
Urban RF Environments
Many users are skeptical that wireless
solutions will work reliably in
urban environments. To verify its
performance, Wyreless Access
solutions have been tested for millions
of operations in downtown
Chicago which is a dense RF urban
area. These tests demonstrated bit
error rates that are only tenths of
a percent.

Metal Doors
Users may not believe wireless solutions
will work on metal doors. They do!
Specialty Doors
Wyreless solutions like the WISI work
with many types of aluminum framed
glass doors using battery operated
strikes made by Locknetics.
