The use of Ekinex® temperature control devices in
combination with the system for access and presence
detection, makes it possible to offer guests of a hotel
maximum comfort and, at the same time, to safeguard the
objectives of energy efficiency and cost savings defined
in the technical and economic planning.
Devices for control access and
presence detection
KNX devices series for controlled access to rooms and for detection of presence
by means of smart-cards. Ideal for creating KNX standard automation functions
in hospitality and hospitality structures (hotels, residences, guesthouses or bed &
breakfasts) with the aesthetic uniformity of Ekinex® wall products (pushbutton and
room thermostats), in combination with products from switchboard (EK-HO1-TP and
EK-HU1-TP controllers) and with the Ekinex® Accédo management and supervision
software.
The products are equipped with an RFID-type front antenna capable of feeding the
smart-card that is approached and reading the programmed information. The EK-
TR2-TP (a) card reader enables access following validation of the card based on
the configured authorizations. The EK-TH2-TP (b) card holder activates presence
following the insertion of the card in the appropriate front pocket. Both products can
manage guest cards of the accommodation facility, based on the system codes, the
reservation and the check-in / check-out period, service cards based on time slots
and pass-dates. To program cards, use the device EK-TP2-TP, which is very similar
to the card reader with the possibility of activating the front antenna also for writing
operations.
The programming of the cards in the reception area as well as the activation of
a card reader outside the room and a card holder inside takes place on the KNX
network infrastructure. In addition to the power supplied by the KNX bus, an external
auxiliary power supply is required for the RFID antenna at 12/24 Vac / dc. The basic
programming of the devices as well as the configuration of the automation functions
is carried out through the ETS application program; card programming and enabling
room and controlled access devices in common areas requires the use of Ekinex®
Accédo management and supervision software. Both devices can notify the passage
and validation events of each type of card via the KNX bus with an internal buffer to
cope with the unavailability of the communication bus due to excessive data traffic.
