SK-NET
Operating & Installation Guide
Inputs – These are circuits that connect external sensors or switches to an
SK-ACP or 28SA-Plus. Status changes on these circuits can initiate special
functions or generate messages in the transactions screen. Various input
types can be defined, including Tamper, Arming (loop detector), door
monitor, request-to-exit (remote open), Bell, Remote Inactive (disable
reader), and User Defined. Section 5.31
Limited Use Cards – A contiguous range of 4000 cards can be defined
to have this feature. These cards are valid for a specific number of uses,
days or weeks. After the preset limit is reached, the cards become void.
Limited use cards can be defined for a single location or a single reader.
Section 6.8
Location – A location is a group SK-ACP panels (and connected readers)
or 28SA-Plus readers networked together via RS-485 and operating as
a unified system. Section 4
Output (relay) – Relays are electromagnetically controlled switches
located on the SK-ACP control panel. When actuated, they complete power
circuits connecting external devices and their external power supplies,
operating door strikes, gate actuators, and annunciators (horns, bells, or
flashers). The SK-ACP has a latch relay and an auxiliary relay. The latch
or access relay is actuated when a card access request is granted. The
auxiliary relay can be configured to activate for various conditions such
as emulating the status of an input, or for an alarm condition such as
door-held, door-forced, emergency exit, error alarm, tamper alarm, or
a card transaction in a specified range, etc. Section 5.33
Reader Group - A set of readers created for the purpose of defining
common properties for those readers. Section 5.28
Real Antipassback (RAPB) – This feature can be assigned to a Time
Zone, and it controls cardholder movement using designated IN or OUT
readers. If a card was last used at an IN reader, it must be used at an
OUT reader before it will be valid at an IN reader again. This feature
was originally developed for parking garages to prevent an authorized
cardholder from passing his card back to an unauthorized user after
entering the lot. Section 5.9
Real Antipassback Forgive – This command resets all cards to a neutral
in/out status, allowing the next card use at either an IN or OUT reader. It
can be invoked for all readers or for a specific reader. It can be scheduled
to occur daily at a specified time (usually early in the morning) or it can
be manually invoked for all cardholders, a specific cardholder number
range, or for a single cardholder. Section 5.10
