A complete access control system consists of an access controller, card reader, exit button, lock, and software platform, along with any other needed accessories.

Hikvision’s Access Control systems feature:

• Access controller that downloads information from software, including the person ID, card number and permissions, granting access to specified personnel at assigned times.

• Card readers to gather identifying information when a user is verified. The reader then sends the user card information to controllers, and completes the verification process.

• Fingerprint reader identifies user directly when pressed, sends and saves the user ID and records to controllers, and completes the verification process.

• Door sensors that retrieve door status – when a door’s status is abnormal, an alarm will be triggered and a notification sent to management software.

• Software to manage real-time events and monitor device status, as well as link up with other Hikvision devices.
