Introducing Plexidor's Electronic Dog Door:
Access Control for your pet





We offer electronic pet access control doors from Plexidor® Pet Doors.

The Plexidor® electronic door only opens for your pet while keeping other animals out. The collar key is an electronic RFID (radio frequency identification) that is attached to your pet's collar. The door reads the key code as your dog approaches and if it recognizes the code, it slides up like a mini garage door, allowing access for your pet. You can program the key to accept just one of thousands of possible key codes, so it is very secure. The rugged electronic collar keys do not require batteries, are water and shock proof, and also work with underground fencing and household security systems.
Plexidor Electronic Dog Door
We have models for both door mounting and wall mounting to suite dogs up to roughly 125 lbs in size. The main frame has a low profile of just 1 5/8" in thickness. Door plugs into household outlet or can be hardwired. Both models are available in 2 colors: white or brown.
All models come complete with pet door, exterior trim, stainless steel hardware, 2 collar keys, power supply and 15ft cord, and are backed by our industry leading 90-day satisfaction guarantee and 5-year no-hassle warranty!

New 3061 digital locking cylinder from SimonsVoss:
up to 300 000 activations without a battery change





SimonsVoss, a market and technology leader in the field of battery-operated electronic locking and access control systems, is presenting the latest generation of its digital locking cylinder 3061.

One of the main features of the new cylinder is that it is powered by a battery with a significantly longer service life. SimonsVoss guarantees that the cylinder can be activated up to 150 000 times with standard button cell batteries, while the special variant can even be activated up to 300 000 times. With the 3061 digital locking cylinder, frequently used central doors can be operated for years without the battery having to be replaced.

With the introduction of this new generation of digital locking cylinders, SimonsVoss Technologies AG is setting new standards for the future of locking and organizational technologies. SimonsVoss transponders and cylinders far outstrip any other comparable locking technologies on the market in terms of battery life.

With respect to its aesthetic design, the cylinder features small, elegant symmetrical knobs. The inside of the cylinder has been completely revolutionized, because the 3061 digital locking cylinder can now be updated using a network or programming device, allowing users to simply ‘download’ new software-based features.

The new generation of digital locking cylinders can also store 3000 access authorizations as well as administering 64 000 transponders per cylinder and 320 000 cylinders per transponder within a single locking system.

And of course, the system also features various convenient ‘permanently open’ functions and a full range of remote diagnosis options.

The new generation of digital locking cylinders from SimonsVoss, like its predecessor, allows for wireless networking and is available in all variants: for example half-cylinder, anti-panic cylinder, VdS-approved, free-rotating, pushbutton control, multi-ratchet version or waterproof versions. We are also developing a version that can be addressed using high-frequency radio signals from standard radio routers (as defined in IEE 802.xx).

SimonsVoss presents new battery-operated and network-compatible Q3008 biometric wall reader

The Q3008 integrates seamlessly into existing SimonsVoss locking systems, because the ID assigned to each fingerprint can also be used for all other SimonsVoss locking components. This allows digital locking cylinders, Smart Relays, furniture locks, half cylinders, lever cylinders, shunt locks and cabinet handles to be activated by fingerprint recognition.

And the fingerprint reader is just as easily integrated in SimonsVoss networks, which means that IDs assigned to a fingerprint can be transferred to other fingerprint readers without having to physically walk to each biometric reader. The data can even be transferred to other locations, so that a fingerprint scanned in Munich will even work in Singapore, for example. The reader can store up to 50 different fingerprints and can be mounted on a plaster wall without the need for cables. Up to 80 000 operations are possible using a single battery.

The new Q3008 biometric reader complements the current Q3007 portable biometric solution from SimonsVoss, which combines the convenience of a transponder with the added security of biometric fingerprinting.

The ‘master finger’ function allows all SimonsVoss biometric readers to ‘learn’ new fingerprints quickly and easily.

You decide which door opens when and for whom.
And with just the press of a button.

With the digital Locking System 3060 from SimonsVoss, you can implement locking systems of varying sizes and complexity. You can make modifications, expand the system, block transponders – in short, handle all individual access authorizations – easily by pressing a button. At the same time, you can allocate up to three mutually independent locking systems to any given transponder. Thus, for example, you need only a single key to open the doors to the office, the private home or to the club facilities.

You can assign and activate each lock and transponder conveniently, quickly and reliably by using either a programming transponder or a combination of PC and PDA with the SmartCD programming device. Furthermore, you can connect the components with one another over the cablefree network – even some time down the road. This allows you to administer the entire System 3060 conveniently from a PC.

Programming in Small Systems

The Programming Transponder 3067 allows the quick and economical programming of the digital Locking Cylinder 3061 and the Transponder 3064. Without a PC or special system software, you issue or change access authorizations in small systems with the simple press of a button, for example, if a key is lost or if there are changes in the locking plan.

The Configuration of Extensive Locking Systems

You can set up extensive locking plans by checking off entries in an easy to view lock-user matrix on a PC or laptop. You can make modifications, expand the system, block transponders – in short, handle all individual access authorizations – by mouse click in a graphic user interface under Windows. You can also transfer the prepared locking plans from the PC to a PDA. Then the handy PDA, with the wireless SimonsVoss SmartCD, takes over the programming of the locking components and transponders for you.

Cablefree Network

In large locking systems, actions such as monitoring individual doors, reprogramming or reading out the access logging is usually time-consuming and therefore cost-intensive. The convenient Network 3065 offers online programming of the entire locking system or selected doors from one or more PCs. The network node, installed in a flush socket device, takes over the cablefree radio communication to the locking components and to the PC . This does away with the need for expensive, time-consuming installations on the door and doorframe.

Control done over the network nodes offers real-time monitoring and, optionally, makes it possible to drive integrated external systems and to switch on lights or heating systems automatically when doors are used. Using the radio-based network, you can even monitor buildings from a distance, for example, by modem or Internet.

The Event Manager in the Networked Locking System

The Event Manager allows you to define the most varied events in the locking system, along with any number of reactions. For example, if a door has been opened but no regular entry has been determined, an alarm can be triggered. Other potential reactions would be to send an E-mail to an alarm control center or an SMS alarm message to the cell phone of the locking system administrator. We save on the keyhole. And we save you a lot of money.

Low life-cycle costs, minimum administration and maintenance efforts and a useful life that is pleasantly long offset the investment in a digital locking system. Incidentally, you can also save on the investments in additional access control systems, because this function has already been integrated into the digital Locking and Organization System 3060 from SimonsVoss. Especially friendly to the budget: The modular construction allows the system to be expanded step by step. If you then also include the enormous time saved for the planning, administration and documentation of a digital locking system, it all adds up to a good investment after only a few years.

SimonsVoss Technologies. Creating a Keyless World.





SimonsVoss Technologies.  Creating a Keyless World.

SimonsVoss Technologies design access control for facilities that is as easy to install as mechanical locks, while providing the features and flexibility of electronic access control.

They’ve taken classical mechanical locking media and applied digital technology and access control features creating more efficient, convenient and secure systems that are very easy to use.

The idea of a digital transponder instead of keys has been globally accepted, and SimonsVoss has successfully turned their vision of a “Keyless World” into reality with a radio-controlled, wireless locking and access control system.

As a leader in the rapidly growing market for digital, battery-operated locking and access control systems, SimonsVoss has developed and installed more than 5,000 systems all over the world.  Clients utilizing these systems include; TCF Bank, The Drake Hotel in Chicago, the University of Texas-Dallas, St. Catherine’s School of Racine (Wisconsin), and Volkswagen.

Almost a million SimonsVoss transponders are already activated worldwide:  quietly, energetically, carefully, and quickly.  The digital locking system guarantees reliable security and cost-effective access and building management everywhere.


SYSTEM 3060.  No Keys, No wires. No Limits.


Mechanical locking systems quickly reach their limits and become a costly security risk if keys are lost or copied. SimonsVoss Digital Locking and Access Control System, or simply System 3060 offers a secure and efficient alternative.  It is comprised of locks, credentials, software and an optional communication network which are controlled solely by radio frequency, without cables.  Just press a button and the door is unlocked. Every access is logged for later examination.  Benefits of System 3060 include quick wireless installation, easy adaptability, seamless security, central control, and it’s highly economical.

Formed in 1995, SimonsVoss Technologies, a German-based company, set out to develop user-friendly locking system applications.  Their main focus was on the development of extremely low-energy electronic boards for use in system components (without external cabling as far as possible), innovative mechanical functions and active transponder technology as the core for operating all system components.  In 1998, SimonsVoss reached a breakthrough with the world’s first digital locking cylinder without external cabling.  By 2005, the company expanded with regional sales offices in Singapore, the United Kingdom, Austria, Dubai, the Netherlands, and France.  Currently the company employs a staff of 225 at the headquarters in Munich, Germany, and maintains a manufacturing facility in Petersberg, Germany along with several international sales offices.

ISONAS, the World Wide leader in IP Access Control
Systems, recognizes the PowerNet™ as a Green
Technology Product.






Green building is as much about design strategy as about selecting eco-friendly materials.

     Integrated design is thinking about how a building works as a system, and designing that system to be environmentally friendly is a key part of green building. Certain products, particularly those that deal with energy, can be used in ways that enhance the environmental performance of a building. The ISONAS PowerNet™ Access Control System can be used in any building type, and through its BACNet and OPC interfaces can integrate seamlessly with Building Automation applications.

     Reduced energy usage, which also reduces carbon dioxide emissions and your energy bill, is one of the most effective green strategies for business. The PowerNet IP Reader from ISONAS uses PoE (Power over Ethernet) to power the reader and the associated door hardware. This provides the lowest possible energy cost for powering an Access Control system.

     Eco-friendly materials are used in the manufacturing of ISONAS Reader-Controllers. ISONAS is certified with RoHS, a standard banning the general use of six hazardous substances including lead and mercury. ISONAS has also taken the strategy of using green materials in its packaging and shipping of its products.

     The smallest manufacturing carbon footprint of any Access Control system is made possible by the panel-free nature of the PowerNet series. Combined with a single Cat 5 cable for installation versus the multitude of copper wiring required by alternative Access Control systems, the ISONAS PowerNet is the cleanest, most sustainable Access Control system in the world.

     Low impact manufacturing means that ISONAS creates inventory based on consumer demand. With the ability to access and analyze real-time demand signals, ISONAS is one of a growing number of companies moving from push to pull manufacturing. By nature, this not only eliminates excess inventory, thereby reducing waste, but it also decreases carbon emissions as it relates to the creation of products and materials.

     No Paper Waste is the ISONAS philosophy. As an IP product manufacturer in the electronic age of technology, marketing materials as well as technical manuals are created electronically and posted on our website available to everyone in PDF form. By making technical manuals, marketing materials and catalogs easily accessible on our web site, ISONAS does not waste paper on needlessly printing excessive paper-based documents.

     Localized Manufacturing ISONAS is based in Boulder, Co, where its PowerNet Readers are manufactured for the North American market. Off-shoring models of the past are increasingly being replaced with more efficient “right-shoring” models, as the risks and costs associated with manufacturing at long distances from one’s customers continue to surface. Longer lead times, increased fuel costs, larger carbon footprints and excess inventory are causing companies to re-examine where and how much they outsource. With the ability to analyze the various factors driving costs and environmental impacts, companies can create balanced plans that are both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. ISONAS is committed to manufacturing as close to its end user base as possible.

About ISONAS Security Systems, Inc. Since 1999, ISONAS Security Systems has provided advanced, Internet Protocol (IP) Access Control solutions for customers who require the superior, real-time access control enabled by a true network appliance. ISONAS is the first and leading developer of IP-at-the-door reader-controllers. Driven by its Windows-based Crystal Matrix Software™, ISONAS products are easily integrated with other network based systems, providing the most advanced physical access security for buildings and workplaces worldwide, across a wide range of industrial applications.

Application Notes: Using the ISONAS TTL Leads





The ISONAS reader-controller supports two TTL output leads. These leads provide logic level signals that can be used to communicate with external systems such as alarm sounders or lights.

These TTL leads are normally held at +5V DC, and when activated, drop to 0V DC. The ISONAS driver circuits for these TTL signal leads can source or sink 24 milliamps. This means that the external system must not draw more than 245mA from the TTL output when it is at +5 VDC nor source more than 24mA when the TTL output is at 0 VDC.

Some external systems (example: alarm systems) will directly accept these logic signals. For other usages, these leads can drive external relay boards, which are capable of controlling larger power draws.

An great example application would be a DOTL (Door Open Too Long) alert in a factory or industrial setting. You would use a relay module, such as the Altronix RBSNTTL, with your ISONAS system to trigger an alarm sounder, such as the ATW Terrier, to notify you if a door has been held open too long.

About the ISONAS Mullion Trim Kit




Trim Kit Features:

The ISONAS Trim Kit is typically used when it is desired to mount the PowerNet reader-controller onto a "single-gang electrical outlet box".


To purchase, simple order an ISONAS reader with the Trim Kit package, such as the ISONAS RC-02-HLF-IP-M/X/4F/TK. (The /TK in the part number denotes the addition of the Trim Kit)



In some jurisdictions, the local building codes require that an outlet box be used. The use of an electrical outlet box can also localize and simplify the reader-controller’s wiring process.

Since the opening of a standard outlet box is wider than the width of the PowerNet reader-controller, the Trim Kit is used to completely cover the outlet box, giving the installation a sleek, finished look.

Threaded brass-inserts reinforce the attachment points for the PowerNet reader-controller.

The Trim Kit can also be used for installations where the mounting surface is so textured, that it is difficult to attach the reflective sticker used to support the PowerNet’s anti-tamper feature.

     


Dimensions (inches):
  • 2 3/4 wide x 7 3/4 tall x 3/16 thick

Attachment screws are included
