Access Control Using VistaKey
The VistaKey is a single-door access control module
that, when connected to the alarm system, provides
access control to the protected premises. The VISTA-
128BP supports up to 8 modules, the VISTA-250BP
supports up to 15 VistaKey modules (15 access points).
DO NOT USE BOTH
the VistaKey and a
PassPoint Access Control System on the same
alarm panel.
UL
The VistaKey module contains three zones.
These zones should ONLY be used for access
control functions in UL installations. THESE
INPUT ZONES ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR
FIRE AND BURGLARY APPLICATIONS IN UL
INSTALLATIONS.
VistaKey Features
•
Each VistaKey communicates with the VISTA-
128BP/VISTA-250BP via the V-Plex polling loop.
•
In the event local power to the VistaKey is lost,
the VistaKey module provides backup monitoring
of the access point door via a built-in V-Plex device
that is powered solely from the polling loop. It is
programmed as a new type of V-Plex device as
part of the control’s V-Plex Device Programming.
A serial number label is affixed to the VistaKey
module for manual entry of its serial number.
•
The VistaKey supports up to 500 cardholders.
•
The addition and removal of VistaKey modules
from the system is easily accomplished via the
VISTA-128BP/VISTA-250BP keypad.
•
All configurable options for each VistaKey are
accomplished via software, firmware, and
nonvolatile memory, eliminating the need for PC
board jumpers. The access point zone number (1-
15) is set via a user-friendly, 16-position rotary
switch.
•
Each VistaKey provides one open-collector output
trigger (sink 12mA @ 12VDC).
