The comprehensive solution for all applications
The permanent protection of buildings against entry by unauthorized persons as well as the uncontrolled exit of a zone are basically contrary to the legal requirements that demand that it must also be possible to exit a building without hindrance in the event of an emergency.
The Doorguard that is now available on the market is a product that not only fullfils both these requirements but also has an attractive design and is flexible in use.
The units enable simultaneous control and monitoring of the opening of emergency exit doors.
The Doorguard is available in two different versions with varying connection technology:
- Doorguard for MB panels BUS-2
- Doorguard hardwired version
The Doorguard for MB panels BUS-2 is suitable for integrating into BUS-2 networks with connection to an intruder alarm control panel.
The Doorguard hardwired version is intended for self-sufficient applications solely for monitoring emergency exit doors without connection to an IACP.
The units can be easily installed on site. The operating unit and alarm signalling device can be installed either separately or as a combined unit to meet the specific requirements of the building or application.
The door contacts (release contacts) at the doors that require monitoring trigger the alarm. In the event of unauthorized opening of the emergency exit door, an acoustical and optical signal is emitted on site.
Authorized opening
If the emergency exit door requires opening by an authorized person, the monitoring of this door can be deactivated by releasing. This enables authorized persons to enter the building through the door once or several times depending on the programming without triggering a signal.
The release of the emergency exit door is indicated at the operating unit via the green LED “Operating state”. Release is possible directly at the unit via the half cylinder and/or the reader (for IK2 / IK3 ID data carriers) that is integrated in the Doorguard for MB panels BUS-2.
The MB Keyswitch has a mechanical key switch and a mifare/DESFire/proX1/proX2 reader integrated. The MB Keyswitch BUS-2 communicates with the corresponding intrusion detection system via BUS-2. All system data as well as all object-specific programming are realized with the programming software "WINFEM Advanced" or the programming software "IQ PanelControl" of the intruder alarm control panel.
Use in amok alarm systems
The MB Keyswitch BUS-2 has been specifically designed as an amok alarm signalling device for use in schools, universities and other public buildings, for example. In the event of danger, it should be prompt and easy to trigger an amok alarm to contact emergency services (such as the police) with details such as "WHERE" (exact location), "WHEN" (time) and "WHO" (name of the person who triggered the alarm).
1. It must be so easy and safe to operate the device that it is practically impossible to trigger an alarm due to operating error.
2. All data required for quick intervention must be transmitted immediately to emergency services (e.g. the police).
3. Triggering of false alarms maliciously or accidentally must be prevented as far as possible.
The proX Key switch BUS-2 meets these requirements of the police.
Recommendation for the usage
Basically, the MB-Keyswitch can be used with data carriers or keys. We strongly recommend the use of data carriers.
Use in Doorguard systems
The device can be installed on site to monitor the opening of emergency exit doors. In its functionality, the device corresponds to the Doorguard Plus BUS-2, though without an alarm signalling device. Other external acoustical and optical alarm devices can be used if needed.
Only in that case can the parameter "WHO?" be sent.
