PROXIMITY function card pack

For use with Compact and Switch2 systems

Function card pack unlocks advanced functions

Coloured zoning - control access of users by token colour

Bar all users

Card plus PIN

Toggling output








About - For use with PROXIMITY compact and Switch2 systems. The Function card pack unlocks the more advanced features of these systems.




Installation - The PROXIMITY Function card pack needs to be enrolled. This is done by presenting the Enrolment card from the original card pack followed by the Enrolment card in the Function card pack.


Operation - The various cards in the pack are used to configure the different functions.

Zone cards: There are three zone cards; green, amber and red. The point of zoning is to restrict the access privileges of groups of users dependant on the colour of their token. Presenting any of the three Zone cards to a reader will turn off the LED of that colour. Users with that colour user token will not be granted access. If the same Zone card is presented again the LED will turn back on. This means that users with that colour token will be granted access.

Time zones: This function allows a coloured zone be activated/de-activated by a time clock.

Remote release: This card returns a system from the time zones mode back to its default state, where the exit button contacts may be used for a press to exit button.

Card plus PIN: This allows PROXIMITY and TOUCHLOCK systems to be connected together to give card plus code access control.

Bar all users: A freshly installed PROXIMITY system will recognise and admit all users from the enrolled token packs. In some cases it may be more appropriate to start with all tokens invalid so they may be validated individually.

Relay toggle card: For use with Switch2 only. This changes the operation of the relay from momentary to toggling (or latching). If a valid token is presented the relay will switch. The relay will remain switched until either the same or any other valid token is presented.

Control units are sold as a PCB board only, within a plastic housing or mounted within a 2A boxed backup power supply.

Operation - Any changes made at the PC are immediately communicated and stored at the control unit. When a user presents their token to the reader the control unit identifies them and permits or denies access as appropriate.

Control unit names can be changed to something more meaningful. Each control unit is configured as required using the Net2 software.


Operation - Net2 operators must be added. These are the users that are allowed to use the software. There are different permission levels to restrict access to certain features. Each operator must logon to the software using their user name and unique password. Operator logons are recorded in the events log.

The remote sites need only be connected when system changes are made or event reports are required. A single system can comprise of several Net2 datalines connected by phone line.




Installation - A Net2 modem is required at both the Net2 server PC and at each remote site. At each remote site the Net2 modem is connected to the Net2 modem adapter. The adapter has labelled terminals for the connection of the Net2 dataline.

When adding control units which are connected by a phone line, the ACU serial numbers must be added manually. This is to increase the security of the system. All configuration of the remote datalines is done using the Net2 software.


Operation - Remote datalines can be connected to periodically (using the dial up schedule) or manually at any time. When connected, the operation of the control units is exactly the same as when connected directly to the PC.

999 Call Centre
Security was crucial when the West Midlands ambulance service started looking for electronic access control solu-tions for their new bespoke control centre. The key function of the new security system was to restrict access to the communications areas and the call centres. In the previous building hostilties were experienced from libera-tion groups, they also received bomb and fire threats. J C M Electrical of Birmingham were briefed to specify a system that would prevent unauthorised access to the car park and buildings. The brief also stipulated that the system should offer the facility of setting different access levels for individual staff members, together with the means of logging movements at specific points in the building. In addition, the system had to be both reliable and easy to use. Chris Burbridge of J C M Electrical specified Net2 from Paxton Access as a solution.
