The PIM enables all traditional access control panels to interface with Wireless Access Point Modules (WAPMs). The PIM seamlessly integrates to any panel via Wiegand or magnetic stripe communications. The PIM operates in the 900 MHz license-free band, allowing rapid, no-hassle deployment. Used by individual building owners and enterprises alike, the Wireless Access PIM provides high- level performance with minimum installation time.

Reliability
Ultra-reliable communications result from several technological advances and incorporated features. 900 MHz Spread Spectrum technology enables high transmission power in a license-free band. Modulo 256 error detection maintain data integrity on each transmission and redundant transmissions ensure communication success. Periodic “heartb good communications are maintained. Lastly, Dynamic Channel Switching overcomes harsh RF environments by automatically changing channels to avoid potential interference.

Universal
Utilizing open standards for compatibility with virtually all access control systems, seamlessly integrate Wireless Access solutions into new and existing installations. Integration with existing access control panels is made easy because the PIM has both Wiegand and magnetic stripe interfaces to select from.

Security
Used extensively by government and military organizations, Spread Spectrum technology provides significant security advantages over conventional transmission methods. Wireless Access devices utilize Spread Spectrum transmissions, which are encoded with 128-bit keys, to yield a system that is virtually uncompromisable. In addition, scalability is virtually unlimited as each Wireless Access Point Module (WAPM) has nearly a million addresses to choose from during the linking process.

Ultra-Reliable Communications
900 MHz band, with 15 channels to choose from, up to 225
MW of power, Modulo 256 error detection on every
transmission and redundant transmissions.
Online Communications (Heartbeat)
Regular communications between the Wyreless Access
Point Module (WAPM) and PIM monitor transmission
presence and integrity. Online communications enable the
PIM to download information or instructions to the WAPM.
Auto Addressing
One of the final steps in the installation process is called
“linking”. Linking ties a specific WAPM to a select PIM and
assigns a unique address. There are over 65,000 unique
addresses available per channel, providing nearly a million
combinations for virtually unlimited scalability.
Assured Communications
A Packet-Error-Rate test is performed during linking,
assuring greater than 99.0% of all messages get through.
Encoded Transmissions
Each transmission is encoded using 128-bit keys to provide
virtually uncompromisable security.
Tamper
The PIM cover is monitored by a Tamper switch.
