Description
The Keyscan CIM is a communication control module designed to use a CAN Bus communication network. It provides optimized server to access control unit (ACU) communication as well as gives users an ACU to ACU network providing inter-panel communication for global communication functions including anti-passback, global input/output and global time zones.
The CIM includes an impressive host of new features including ground loop protection, enhanced diagnostics, improved speed and unprecedented reliability.
Standardized Cabling
Establishes communication links with CAN Bus communication
protocol using standard CAT5 cabling.
Ground Loop Tolerance
Maximizes electrical isolation to earth ground providing
tolerance against ground loops.
Fault Tolerance
If one CIM goes down, it won't take the loop down with it.
CAN Bus protocol offers non-interrupted communication of
remaining devices on the network.
Communication Speeds
Provides optimized communication speeds, up to 115K BPS.
Enhanced Diagnostics
Provides many diagnostics for quick and easy troubleshooting.
Auto Bit Rate Configuration
Designed to automatically match bit rate speed with
control unit configuration.
Network Adaptation
Supports Keyscan's plug-on TCP/IP network adapter
NETCOM2P/6P.
Ribbon Cable
Uses a simplified ribbon cable connection to control unit for
fast installation.
Global Communication
Access Control Units with direct connectivity with the CAN
Bus network now provide ACU to ACU communication without
server dependence. This permits a host of new features and
capabilities.
