Cardax FT Technology Platform

Communications

Network Capable• Resides directly on existing TCP/IP Networks

– TCP - Transmission Control Protocol – IP - Internet Protocol

Remote Dial-up Capable• Modem over PSTN

– PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network)

Designed for scalability• Supports from one more workstation upward, only limited by

your server and network capability

Modem

Communications

Designed for modern networks• Onboard native Ethernet• No need for terminal servers

Modem

CommunicationsInnovation in security

• All Cardax FT Controllers can directly communicate with each other (Peer-to-Peer)

• Communicates over Ethernet• No interaction with Command Centre

required

System Design Flexibility

• One Controller can control and monitor devices other separate Controllers

• Cardax FT Remote Arming Terminal & Dialler 3000 heavily exploit Peer-to-Peer capability

• Designed to use minimal bandwidth

- 1 Access Event = 100 bytes

• TCP/IP communicates allow: – Web Browsing to the Controller – Device Software Download, no EPROM

External Interfacing

Resource Management Importing timed resource bookings from 3rd Party Applications(e.g. Syllabus Plus) provides the ability to:• Lock & Unlock a specific zones for the duration of scheduled

booking• Automatically activate lighting at a pre-configured time• Automatically activate air conditioning at a pre-configured time• Automatically activate projector units at a pre-configured time

period • Automatically de-activate lighting, air conditioning and projectors

at conclusion of booking.

Integration PlatformIntegration - Export Events using:

• COM/DCOM, the latest generation of Microsoft® Windows development tools

• OPC (OLE for Process Control) for Alarms & Events (Object Linking & Embedding)

• Automatically Export Cardax FT events as they occur to any 3rd party (OPC compliant) system. These systems receive OPC events and alarms just like an OPC viewer, the application manages processes thereafter – Building Management and Process Control– Remote Alarms Management (Contact ID) – Time and Attendance package interfaces– CCTV interface– DVR interface
