Ulyweb is a modular access control system for up to 64 doors designed & manufactured in the UK. At the heart of the system is the Web Enabled Access Controller which has built in technology to allow the entire door access control system to be connected to your Local Area Network (LAN) and managed simply from any PC on your network, through its Internet Browser. No software installation is required on any computer or workstation on your network. With a browser based interface, your learning cycle and training time is significantly decreased and you don't even have to have a dedicated PC, simply log on to the Ulyweb system and you're ready to go. Your access controlled doors and entrances can be managed and monitored from any 'web-enabled-device' including PC's, Smart Phones, PDA's and hand-held internet enabled devices. Easy to use web screens ensure that you accurately administrate all users of the system and recover that all important historical reporting information about past access control events with ease. The Web Server Access Controller will permit multiple PC's to be connected and be actively monitoring or administrating the system with no further software or licenses required on any PC or workstation. It is possible with the correct IT infrastructure and permissions, to monitor and administrate the system securely from any computer in the world. The impressive specification for the Ulyweb system is below: Access controller for up to 64 doors (128 readers) Access controller for up to 25,000 users Access controller for up to 30 administrators Requires only one Static IP Address Windows, Linux & MAC compatible Administrate from your Smart Phone or iPad Embedded SQL database Event audit capacity of 10 million events 2500 Security Time Schedules Global anti-pass back (soft, medium & hard) Proximity and biometric reader devices Access Control & Time Clocking logs Powerful SQL report writer Real time event monitoring Onboard LAN socket (G & N WiFi options available) Onboard RS485 interface for 32 doors or entrances Built in UPS and housed in a metal enclosure Browser based database backup facility Mass non-volatile memory storage Intruder alarm set / unset integration Low maintenance & end-user intervention 230 Volt mains powered

The above system drawing excludes the optional exit card reader and local alarm sounder for clarity.

Access Doors & Entrances The Web Server Access Controller allows the connection of up to 64 electronic access controlled doors or entrances. Each entrance can have 1 or 2 card readers permitting a total of 128 readers. The secured doors are connected on a low cost dedicated cable network, consisting of two twisted pairs and a screen (5-wire). The length of this dedicated cable network can be up to 1200M. Each door or entrance is controlled by a local door control unit (DCU) which allows the connection of all the door facilities such as readers, local power supply and electric locking. The door control unit acts as a junction point for all the door facilities and allows the dedicated network to be passed onto the next door or entrance. Each Door Control Unit (DCU) will allow the connection of the following local facilities: 1 entry card reader 1 exit card reader (optional) 1 exit request button (optional) 1 electronic locking device 1 magnetic door contact 1 local alarm sounder or signalling device (optional) 1 12VDC PSU for locking devices and DCU power

The Door Control Unit (DCU) is designed to be located above or near the door or entrance it serves. Each DCU requires a 100mAmp 12VDC power source and can be powered by the locking devices power supply. The door control unit is housed in a composite case that is usually mounted close to the door or entrance it is managing to minimize local cabling runs. It allows cable entry by way of 20mm cable entry points that can be utilized with or without additional cable entry glands. The local DCU is compact and low power and can be installed by electrical & security installers with ease. All functions and appliances associated with an individual door or entrance can be tested in isolation by virtue of the built-in engineer test mode function.

What are the advantages of Ulyweb?
There are many advantages gained by installing the Ulyweb access control system over more conventional systems, here are just four:

1. Large event audit history - conventional systems require the software application installed at the PC to be online all the time or periodically in order to avoid gaps or missing events in the event audit history data. Ulyweb has a large internal memory to automatically save up to 10 million historical events.
The system can be unattended for weeks, months or even years with the event history intact on the occasion when a historical event report needs to be performed.

2. No software required - Ulyweb has built-in embedded software that runs permanently in the main controller. The built-in Web Server allows all event queries, administration or real-time monitoring to be done through your favoured web browser, workstation or internet enabled device.

3. Secure unlimited flexible operator access - conventional systems require a software application to be installed on each PC that is required to access the system and operations must be performed at these workstations. Ulyweb by virtue of its built-in Web Server and IP connection allows any PC to be used on your LAN or WAN through your favoured web browser. It is even possible to manage and query the system over the Internet from any workstation in the world providing you have the required authentication means.

4. Cross platform compatibility - the Ulyweb main controller can be connected to your local area network (LAN). Compatibility for Windows, Linux and MAC workstations is assured with operation using all the popular web browsers, Smart Phones & iPad etc.

Flexible & Powerful Operating Options
The Ulyweb Access Control System is always installed with one methodology regardless of the number of doors or entrances controlled. The main Ulyweb Server controller controls all of the secured access control points by way of a dedicated low cost access control network.

The above diagram shows the simple & modular installation components. This system installation method allows for the maximum reliability and integrity as the main controller has a large capacity for cardholders and historical event storage. The system, once configured may be left unmanaged for many months, if not years as it manages itself entirely. Remember that a permanently connected computer is not required as the Ulyweb Server controller stores all the information and manages the secured doors & entrances by itself.

LAN or Stand Alone Modes
The main Ulyweb Server controller is equipped with a single RJ45 Ethernet socket which is required to connect the entire access control system to either your Local Area Network (LAN) or directly to a PC if you wish by way of a RJ45 cross-over (null-modem) cable. The former method (LAN mode) is the preferred method as it allows the maximum flexibility for the end-user as they may choose any computer on the network to administrate or monitor the system through its web browser only (no software required).

The latter method (stand-alone) by using an RJ45 cross-over cable, creates in-effect a dedicated LAN with just two devices, the Ulyweb Server controller and your PC, MAC or Linux machine. With this method the computer can be connected permanently or just on the occasion you wish to administrate changes or run a report on historical event data. Stand-alone mode is useful when the end-user does not wish or desire to have the system connected to their LAN or when maximum simplicity is required. Whichever operational method you choose Ulyweb requires little or no intervention!
