iSTAR TM Intelligent Network Controller
(Up to 16 doors per controller)
C•CURE 800
iSTAR is an Ethernet-ready embedded control panel for
enterprise-wide security management. iSTAR operates with
Software House’s RM Reader Services as well as industry
standard Wiegand readers. Intended for use by both
corporate security and information technology managers,
the iSTAR controller represents a new way to organise and
deploy security management solutions by seamlessly
integrating with an existing network infrastructure.
Designed with the network in mind, the iSTAR controller
enables integration of various event management
applications into one single embedded controller.
At the heart of iSTAR is the General Controller Module
(GCM). The GCM integrates Microsoft’s Windows® CE
operating system, Motorola’s Power PC TM processor,
network and communication ports, expandable memory and
a PC Card type III slot. The GCM also supports up to two
Access Control Modules (ACM) for versatile reader system
integration. ase event-directed actions can be downloaded
to the controller from the C•CURE 800/8000 database and
journal host. Communications among multiple iSTARS can
point-to-point via TCP/IP over Ethernet. Remote dial-up is
also an option as a secondary back-up communications
path. The advantaged access control networking allows
ISTAR controllers to efficiently communicate directly to one
another without host polling or intervention.
Note: C•CURE 800/8000 v.5.2 or higher and complete training is required; all dealers
must complete training on iSTAR system prior to purchasing.
Ethernet Ready- Direct Ethernet connection with each
iSTAR retaining a unique IP address. ISTAR can be
deployed in clusters. A cluster can incorporate multiple
panels employed over a WAN, allowing the cluster to
include controllers in geographically disparate locations.
Embedded Operating System. - Microsoft Windows CE
and Motorola Power PC processor broaden application
support and enhance speed.
Seamless Integration - DHCP allows for automatically
obtaining IP addresses: the C•CURE 800/8000 host networks
for initial database set-up, managing peripheral
hardwdare, generating activity reports, and managing
multi-cluster events.
Wide Range of Alarm Monitoring - Supports 2 ACMs,
each providing 16 supervised inputs and 8 relay outputs
(readers); i/8 and R/8 allow each additional input and output
modules.
Advanced Clustering for Unmatched Event Control and
monitoring - Distributed management is supported
through communications within a cluster.
Database Backup on Power Failure - Eliminates the need
to re-download entire database after power loss.
Anti-Passback within A Cluster - stops or restricts access
of personnel attempting to utilise the same security
badge.
Password Protected Web Based Diagnostics - Remote
diagnostics utilising any networked computer, Web
browser, and known iSTAR IP address.
Expandable On-Board memory - On board memory
options supporting expanded databases/events and
future add-on functionality. 32Mb and 64Mb SIMM field
upgradeable configurations available.
Secure Communications - Industry tested encryption and
multi-key authentication for enhanced security.
System for the Future - Easily upgradeable flash ROM
with future releases and iSTAR specific extended applications
such as enhanced Intrusion Zones and Keyboard
Commands.
Worldwide Compliance - FCC, CE, C-TCK, UL 294 and UL
1076.
