Reader - nBy
The Ability intrusion control panels manage nBy/S and nBy/X readers.
The proximity reader is the easiest way for users to interact with the Ability
intrusion control system.
The nBy/S model has been especially designed to mount to all types of
surface by means of just two screws. It is also IP34 rated (heavy duty) and
therefore suitable for outdoor use.
It is equipped with a buzzer and 4 LEDs:
•
F1
- Red
•
F2
- Blue
•
F3
- Green
•
F4
- Yellow
The Universal flush-mount nBy/X (
Patent Pending
) has been especially
designed to integrate with all brands of cover plates.
It is equipped with 4 LEDs (red, blue, green and yellow).
Readers do not provide the same extent of system control as keypads,
however, these devices are quick and easy-to-use and are extremely useful
when carrying out day-to-day operations (arm/disarm partitions, etc.).
Readers are usually located near the main entry/exit points of the
protected building. These devices allow system access to valid keys only.
The system readers are capable of recognizing the customized (personal)
parameters of each individual user key. Each reader is enabled to operate
on specific partitions, whereas each key is enabled to operate only on the
Buzzer signal
