NEW LONWORKSr ACCESS CONTROL PROXIMITY READERS FOR THE BUILDING CONTROLS INDUSTRY
Intelligent LRE module compliant with LonWorks and building industry standards
Indala Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., announced today an intelligent LonWorks Remote Electronics (LRE) access module that is compliant with LonWorks and building industry standards.
"Indala is one of the first to integrate proximity access control technology and door entry into a smart Lon-based peripheral," said Scott Lindley, Indala Product Manager. "The LRE provides a single-piece interface between an Indala proximity reader and LonWorks control networks."
Unlike other access control devices, the LRE provides complete interoperability with other building systems. It interacts with your system and a LonWorks compatible access manager through an easy menu-based setup. The LRE operates just like other LonMarkr nodes used in HVAC, lighting and sound systems.
Easy to install and integrate, the LRE provides multiple definable I/O functions, transient protection on all I/Os (including relay contacts), bi-directional 78 Kbps communications through a FTT-10A transceiver and a flexible, software-defined feature set.
"Indala's product moves open system development ahead, which can result in more efficient buildings and in cost savings for facility owners. Security and access control systems based upon LonWorks technology should now be less expensive to implement and developers of such systems should be able to reduce their costly development cycles," said Doug Corbett, director of marketing and sales for ALYA International. ALYA is a developer of high-end LonWorks-based security management systems.
The LRE complements Indala's ASP Advantage Series ProximityT product line which includes the ASP Image30T access control proximity card and ASR-600 series readers.
Echelon's LonWorks networks is a de facto standard for control networks in the building controls industry.

NEW ASR-610 PROXIMITY READER FEATURES UP TO 12 INCH READ RANGE.
Faster and Easier Access Control; Single-Piece Construction Simplifies Installation
Indala Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., announced today that its MasterProxTM ASR-610 proximity card reader has a read range of up to 12 inches (30.5 cm), allowing faster and easier access.
"The ASR-610 delivers high value and performance in a very attractive, small package," said Scott Lindley, Indala product manager. "Users will find it responsive and convenient to access because of its longer read range. Resellers will appreciate its single-piece construction and excellent performance features."
Easy to install, the ASR-610 mounts on a single gang box as well as a flat surface. Because of its modular design, users can incorporate different color bezels (beige and black now available) to enhance the decor of any environment. The ASR-610 can be used anywhere--indoors or outdoors--because the electronics is sealed in a UL-approved epoxy potting material, making the reader both tamper-and weather-resistant.
Available immediately, the ASR-610 is the newest member of Indala's ASP Advantage Series ProximityTM line of card readers. Enhanced performance features include QuickFlashTM for immediate user feedback; SelfTestTM for installation assistance; and WatchDogTM for security applications requiring a supervised reader.
Standard features include a three-color status LED (red, green and amber) and an independently controlled audio tone. All features are field-configurable through the use of programming cards.
CE certified and UL approved, the ASR-610 operates from 4 to 14 VDC at a typical current draw of only 117 mA. The ASR-610 can be configured to transit data in either WiegandTM or magnetic stripe formats. Advantage Series Proximity, QuickFlash, SelfTest and WatchDog are trademarks of Motorola, Inc.
NEW IMAGE30TM PROXIMITY ACCESS CONTROL CARD MEETS IS0 STANDARDS
"Credit card" thin credential contains multiple ID technologies
Indala Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., announced today that its new Image30 proximity card meets ISO standards and is available immediately.
Only 0.03-inch (0.76 mm) thin and weighing just 0.20 ounces (6 grams), the Image30 is the latest generation of contactless radio frequency (RF) proximity cards from Indala. Although ultra-thin, the Image30 is a robust card and withstands rough handling and bending. It can be easily slot-punched to hang either in a vertical or horizontal position.
"The Image30 has all the benefits of our popular AVC-132 card and more," said Scott Lindley, Indala product manager. "It's tough, lightweight and easy to carry in a wallet. It's also dye sublimation-printable from edge-to-edge and supports photo ID and company graphics requirements with virtually no restrictions."
The Image30's ability to contain multiple ID technologies such as bar codes, magnetic stripe and smart ICs in a single credential enhances its use for multiple applications. Bar codes can be imaged onto the card for systems tracking, time-and-attendance or job costing. With an optional magnetic stripe, the Image30 can be used for systems such as cafeteria vending, copy machines and fuel dispensing.
"Because of its versatility, the Image30 can be encoded any way you want with exact facility codes, ID numbers and card sequencing," said Lindley. "The cards are compatible with many different data formats such as WiegandTM and ABA Track 2."
FAX-ON-DEMAND SERVICE FOR OBTAINING FAST PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

NEW LOOK ACCESS CONTROL READERS
Motorola's Indala Corporation Introduces New Generation of Proximity Readers
Attractive design with "snap-on" modules
Indala Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., today announced a new family of proximity readers that feature unique modern designs. Besides sporting a new look, the new family of readers are smaller than previous Indala readers yet deliver the same performance.
Jaime Martorell, President of Indala, stated, "These state-of-the-art readers share a distinctive Motorola appearance." He added, "The unique design allows customers to easily add features such as a keypad or display. The result is shorter lead time for installation plus the benefit of adding features when you need them."
The new readers will be available in mullion, wall switch and general purpose model styles, as well as in several designer colors.
"We encourage feedback from our customers, dealers and OEMs regarding color," added Martorell, "Some users want readers that blend into their architecture or decorating scheme."
The new readers will provide consistent performance from 4 to 16 volts DC. Delivery is scheduled for December, 1996.
ACTIVE VEHICLE TAG
Long Range Proximity Tag Provides Greater Functionality at Lower Cost
Indala Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., today strengthened its leadership in the access control market with the introduction of the AVT-159 Active Vehicle Identification Tag.
Designed to meet the long-range read requirements in vehicle ID, the new AVT-159 tag has an increased read range of 10 feet (3 m) and improved shock and vibration resistance.
"Indala's improved Active Vehicle Identification Tag represents the company's commitment to providing customers with continual upgrades in value throughout the product line," said Sheila Griffie, Director of Sales and Marketing. "Not only have we increased the read range and durability of this product, we have lowered the price."
The AVT-159 is completely sealed against the elements in a durable, ruggedized housing. It is equipped with a long-life, non-replaceable battery supporting a typical life span of five years.
Measuring only 0.83 inches (21 mm) in thickness, 2.43 inches (6l mm) in height and 7.87 inches (199 mm) in length, the 6.0 ounce (270 gm) tag can be easily and securely mounted on a vehicle. It can also be used to control access to garages, gated communities and retail lots for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
The AVT-159 uses advanced radio frequency identification (RFID) proximity technology which provides reliable and accurate tracking of vehicles, bins, or carts entering a controlled area, such as a parking lot or warehouse.
When used with Indala's IR-60E road loop antenna--which can be embedded in the asphalt or concrete surface of a road or driveway--the AVT-159 tag can be used to track trucks or autos at speeds up to 30 miles per hour.
Unlike bar code or other types of electronic identification technologies, Indala's RFID technology enables tags to read even when surrounded by water, grease, wood shavings, cement, glass, plastic or other nonmetallic materials. Indala's tags and readers are designed to operate in wet, vibrating, abrasive, dirty, hot, cold or other harsh environments. |
