  1. Card Access Systems Don Spade COSC 380

  2. Types of cards • Magnetic Stripe • Credit Cards • Driver’s Licenses • IUP I-Card • Proximity • Used for ADA entrances • Allows user to get close to reader

  3. IUP’s I-Card • Magnetic stripe • 3 tracks • Track 1 • Personal information • Banner id, name • Track 2 • ABA number • Track 3 • blank

  4. IUP’s I-Card • ABA number • 6008390100338056 – Used for online access systems, Dining, Fitness Center and tickets • Customer Code • 60083901 • Unique number • 0033805 • Checksum • Last digit (6) Also has a Smart Card for vending, printing and laundry

  5. Card Access Systems at IUP • Traditional Residence Halls • ESMS Systems • Online System only (Connects to a central database over network) • Suites • Stanley/Best/Lenel • Online and offline (Suite doors) system

  6. ESMS System • Currently used on all traditional Residence Halls and Sutton, Cogswell and McElhaney Halls • Controls card access, door alarms (propped and immediate) and ADA doors • Runs over 100 doors • Entry doors • Immediate Alarm Doors

  7. ESMS SystemHeadend system • Stores card data in an Oracle database • The original headend System (installed in 1994) was a Unix computer • Current system runs on a Windows XP computer with a Unix emulator interface

  8. ESMS SystemMultinodes • Each building has panels that store card information called “multinodes” • Each multinode contains data for all valid cards, one for each door • When a card is swiped, it is verified on the multinode. If the card’s information is not on the multinode a request is sent to the headend to see if the card needs downloaded • Card is accepted or rejected

  9. ESMS SystemData Communication • Data is converted from serial at the headend to ethernet via DEC servers, transmitted over IUP’s network and converted back into serial to multinode • Data is transmitted back to the headend the same way • Can use dialup connection using modem at both ends • Punxsutawney is currently on dialup

  10. Stanley Best (Lenel) System • Will be installed in all new Suite Style Residence Halls • Currently running on Suites on Grant (400+ offline and 40 online doors, also one door in Stright Hall) • Does both online (hallway and entrance doors) and offline (Suite rooms)

  11. Stanley Best (Lenel) SystemHeadend • Uses mySQL or an Oracle database for an extra cost • Foundation for IUP bought the Oracle database for future expansion • User interface runs on any Windows machine, the database is on a Windows 2003 server

  12. Stanley Best (Lenel) SystemOnline System • Controls all hallway and entrance doors • Entrance doors are locked only at night, Residence Wings are always locked • Uses ABA number to verify card • Has panels at each building, one controller for each door • Panels store card information in a similar way to the ESMS system

  13. Stanley Best (Lenel) SystemOnline System – data communication • Headend transmits to panels using Ethernet, data is transformed to serial using Lantronix boxes, serial to panels • Panel transmits to Lantronix box which converts to Ethernet, sending data to headend

  14. Stanley Best (Lenel) SystemOffline System • Each lock is programmed using a handheld device • Given a name (ex: A-128) • Date is set • Each lock has a battery that will last at least 2 years depending on use • Card must be encoded on track 3 • Which door can be accessed? • What time period? • Card can only access one door at a time

  15. Stanley Best (Lenel) SystemOffline System – Lost cards • New card must be encoded with door information • System increments sequence number • When new card is swiped, the lock knows that this card has a higher encode count than what’s programmed, so it updates the sequence number on the lock • If old card is tried, the lock sees the older number and rejects the card

  16. Features Not Used at IUP • Anti-Passback • All users must swipe card to get in and out • If they don’t swipe in, they can’t swipe out • Deters “following” • Card with Pin • Can require that user swipes card and punches in a pin number • Deters using lost cards dishonestly

  17. Card Access Systems at IUP • Old and new systems use similar methods of storing and transmitting card information • New System gives the ability to use offline locks • Old system will be phased out
