Tensor access control solution offers extensive provisions for emergency situations


Implementing specific provisions for emergency situations should be a priority for any access control solution out there. For this reason, the Tensor WinAC.NET access control system offers multiple features designed specifically to ensure that access to any site is always secured and properly recorded.

WinAC.NET is one of Tensor’s latest developments in our proven range of Windows™ based Access Control Products, from simple door and registration point control, through to a fully computerised global Networked Access Control System.

With Tensor WinAC.NET Enterprise and Tensor’s range of readers, you can control most standard types of internal and external electronic, magnetic door releases and devices, making full use of location points, whether in full view or hidden out of sight, providing access even in the most adverse conditions.

It’s important to point out that, beside the highly secure Tensor smart cards, our access control system can also be fitted with a few extras, for added security. For example, the WinAC.NET suite also supports biometric fingerprint readers, that, combined with photo ID Smart Cards, provide high level security at an affordable price.

Another latest-generation technology that can be easily added to the system is facial recognition, an alternate to identity authentication by fingerprint. Facial recognition verifies a person’s complete face before granting or denying access.

Apart from these added security features, the system also offers some provisions designed specifically for emergency situations. One such provision is represented by the simple but strong push buttons or secure, monitored emergency break glasses. Both of these mechanical products can be easily integrated with contactless Access Control or work stand-alone.

Another very useful feature is a provision for situations involving entry under duress to a certain site. Cardholders can enter a special code to warn system administrators that access has been granted under duress. There is no difference to the reader response when the duress key is pressed but silent alarms and emails are triggered to warn of the entry under duress. Access is granted in the normal manner, in order to avoid the person entering the code from being harmed in any way.
