PRX-TSEC-EXTRA
The full wall plate/lightswitch size makes the tSec Extra the ideal choice when replacing existing readers with a larger footprint..
A range of optional features means there is a model to suit everyone.
Available with 13.56MHz smart card capability, or as a multi technology reader that combines both 125kHz proximity and 13.56MHz capabilities in a single unit delivering maximum compatibility while providing a path forward to the latest technology. The multi technology reader is ideal for organizations that wish to transition to smart technology at their own pace, as it means they don’t need to replace all their cards upfront.
Optional Bluetooth® / NFC Credential Reading
Bluetooth / NFC capability enables you to use your smartphone as your access credential for maximum convenience. Equipped with support for most modern iOS and Android devices, you can unlock the door using a unique access credential that is entered against your user record in Protege, and authenticated by a secure cloud based server.
Choose between the intelligent RS-485 connection for fast, flexible, secure communication, or Wiegand for compatibility with all standard access control systems. RS-485 provides the added benefits of being easier and more cost effective to wire and deploy, and allows for direct integration with Protege systems enabling you to make changes on the fly once readers are installed. RS-485 also allows for longer cable runs and offers a simpler firmware update process.
The OSDP protocol improves interoperability and adds scalability, flexibility and ease of implementation. OSDP with Secure Channel offers additional security with AES-128 encryption and predefined key management and authentication. For specifications and reader configuration, refer to AN-321 Configuring tSec Multi-Technology Card Readers for OSDP Communication.
The tSec reader provides the ability to change the color of the LED strip (16 colors available) to show when a function has started, succeeded or failed. For example, when a function is used to arm an area, you can set the LED to change to purple to show that the function has started, yellow to show that the area has armed successfully, and red to indicate that the function has failed.
Note: This feature is only supported when wired using RS-485.
The IP65 environmental rating provides a high degree of protection from the elements, making the tSec reader suitable for harsh environments. Readers can be mounted indoors or outdoors, located anywhere from the car park gate to the office door.
Optional Vandal Resistant Cover
Designed to withstand some of the harshest settings, the optional vandal resistant covers are ideal for locations where a card reader may be exposed to damage, including corridors, parking buildings, correctional facilities, and other public places. Highly resistant to impact, such as from the swing of a hammer or baseball bat, its robust construction provides greater durability and protection against vandalism and malicious damage. The flush design also serves as an anti-ligature measure for an additional level of safety.
Covers can be ordered for the tSec Extra Reader using the part code : PRX-XVRC
Mounted correctly, the tSec Reader Vandal Resistant Cover is compliant to DHF TS 001:2013, the ENHANCED REQUIREMENTS & TEST METHODS FOR ANTI-LIGATURE HARDWARE to grade B4 for vertical direction devices and to impact level IK10.
Keypad Support
Regular keypad variations of the tSec Reader range do not operate correctly with the vandal resistant covers that are provided separately. You must order the reader as a kit (including the cover) using one of the following part codes:
This optional accessory allows you to mount the tSec Reader projected from the wall, providing space for an external conduit.
The surface mount box is ordered separately using the product code TSEC-SMB-EXT
