System Overview
Access Professional Edition System (hereunder referred to as
Access PE) consists of four modules
– LAC Service: a process which is in constant communication
with the LACs (Local Access Controllers – hereafter
referred to as Controllers). AMCs (Access Modular
Controllers) are used as Controllers.
– Configurator
– Personnel Management
– Logviewer
These four can be divided into server and client modules.
The LAC service needs to remain in constant contact with the
controllers because firstly it constantly receives messages from
them regarding movements, presence and absence of
cardholders, secondly because it transmits data modifications,
e.g. assignment of new cards, to the controllers, but mainly
because it carries out meta-level checks (access sequence
checks, anti-passback checks, random screening).
The Configurator should also run on the server; however it can
be installed on client workstations and operated from there.
The modules Personnel Management and Logviewer belong to
the Client component and can be run on the Server in addition,
or on a different PC with a network connection to the server.
The following Controllers can be used.
– AMC2 4W (with four Wiegand reader interfaces) - can be
extended with an AMC2 4W-EXT
– AMC2 4R4 (with four RS485 reader interfaces)

Introduction
Access PE is an Access Control System which has been
designed to offer the highest standards of security and flexibility
to small and medium sized installations.
Access PE owes its stability and upgradeability to a 3-tier
design: The top tier is the administration level with its
controlling services. All administrative tasks are carried out
here, e.g. the registration of new cards and the assignment of
access rights.
The second tier is formed by the Local Access Controllers
(LACs) which govern each group of doors or entrances. Even
when the system is offline a LAC is able independently to make
access control decisions. LACs are responsible for controlling
the entrances, governing door opening times or requesting PIN-
codes at critical access points.
The third tier consists of card readers which, like the
Controllers, are identical across all BOSCH access controls.
They provide not only a consistently high degree of security, but
also a simple upgrade and expansion path for the system,
protecting previous investments.
Access PE multi-user version allows multiple workstations to
control the system. Customizable user rights levels regulate
access and guarantee security. In this way it is possible, for
example, to maintain card data from one workstation whilst
using another to verify whether an employee is present in the
building.
Access PE offers exceptionally flexible configuration of access
rights, time models and entrance parameters. The following list
gives an overview of the most important features:
Quick & Easy card Assignment
2
2.1
12 en | General - Configurator Access Professional
Edition
2015-11 | | Configuration Manual Bosch Access Systems GmbH
Cards (up to three) can be assigned to persons either manually
or using a dialog reader connected to a PC via a serial
connection. All assigned cards are active. When upgrading cards
the old card is automatically overwritten and becomes invalid,
thus preventing old cards from gaining access even if those
responsible forgot or were unable to cancel them.
Access Rights (including Group Privileges)
Each person can inherit group privileges as well as having
individual rights assigned to him. Privileges can be restricted by
area and time to an accuracy of one minute. Group privileges
can be used to grant and limit access rights for any or all
cardholders simultaneously. Group privileges can be made
dependent on time models which restrict their access to certain
times of day.
Access tracking
By defining Areas it is possible to track and enforce a correct
sequence of accesses. Even without monitoring, this
configuration makes it possible to display a cardholder's
location.
Anti-Passback
When a card has been read it can be blocked for a defined
period from entering at the same access point. Hence it is
possible to prevent "passback", where a user hands his card
back across a barrier to provide access for an unauthorized
person.
Automatic Cancelation of cards upon Expiration
Visitors and temporary staff frequently require access for a
limited period only.
cards can be registered for a specific time period, so that they
automatically lose their validity when that period expires.
Time Models and Day Models
Access Professional
Edition General - Configurator | en 13
Bosch Access Systems GmbH 2015-11 | | Configuration Manual
A cardholder can be assigned to specific time models which
regulate the hours in which that person has access. Time
models can be defined flexibly using day models which
determine how specific weekdays, weekends, holidays and
special days deviate from normal working days.
Identification via PIN-Code
Instead of a card a person can use a special PIN-Code to enter.
Verification via PIN-Code
Particularly sensitive areas can be programmed to require
additional PIN-Codes. This protection can in turn be made
dependent on time models, so that, for instance, a PIN-Code is
only required for access during holiday times or outside of
defined working hours.
Flexible Door Management
Flexible parameterization of individual door models allows an
optimum balance between security and comfort. The "shunt" or
alarm suppression period can be individually specified to
regulate for how long a door may remain open. In cooperation
with an alarm system the access point can then optionally be
locked.
Periodic Door Release
In order to facilitate access, door alarms can be shunted to
release doors for specific periods. Door release periods can be
defined manually or automatically via a time model.
Time and Attendance
Access points can be parameterized to record ingress and
egress for time & attendance purposes.
Card Design
The graphical add-in module Card Personalization (CP) is fully
integrated into the Access Control system to allow the operator
to create cards without switching applications.
Assignment of Photos
If the add-in module Card Personalization (CP) is not activated
photographic identification can nevertheless be imported and
associated with cardholders.

Offline locking system
Areas which are not covered, for whatever reason, by the high-
availability online access control system can nevertheless be
locked offline.
Administration of video devices
Entrances can be equipped additionally with cameras to identify
and track the movements of persons using them.

Configurations
The composition of a system (what entrances there are where,
how many readers and of what type, how access authorizations
are set up etc.) is saved in special files. Any number of these
configuration files can exist — however, only one can apply to
the current system. This makes it possible to test new
scenarios, carry out test runs and carry out quick system
changes.
Creating new configurations
All Access PE configurations are stored in the folder C:\BOSCH
\Access Professional Edition\PE\Data\Cfg (unless non-default
paths and folder names are chosen during installation). Two
configuration files are created by the installation, namely
Active.acf and Default.acf. Whereas Active.acf contains example
data, which may be helpful to the user, Default.acf contains only
predefined system data.
System data include:
– The area --outside--.
– Example holidays and special days
– The personnel groups Employees and Visitors
– Display texts for readers.
– Logbook texts
Upon startup Access PE always uses the configuration
Active.acf.
A configuration may find itself in different states, and it is
important to distinguish between them
– An Active configuration is one whose definitions, settings
etc. are currently being used by the running system.
– An Open (aka loaded) configuration is one which is
currently being edited by system users. It may later be
stored in a separate .acf file and/or later activated, but until
it is activated it has no influence on the running system.

Access Professional
Edition Configurations | en 43
Bosch Access Systems GmbH 2015-11 | | Configuration Manual
Any number of configurations can be defined and stored in
Access PE. Because new configurations can be created and
modified independently of the running system, it is possible, for
example, to define new areas which will be included in the
monitored installation at a later date.
Using the button in the toolbar the default configuration
Default.acf, with its basic settings, can be opened (loaded). If
modified to create a new configuration it should be saved under
a different and appropriate name.
The button starts a file-saving dialog in the Cfg directory.
The default filename untitled.acf should be replaced by a more
explanatory filename.
!
Warning!
The default configurations active.acf and default.acf should
never be renamed or overwritten. Always store modifications of
default.acf under a new name.
44 en | Configurations Access Professional
Edition
2015-11 | | Configuration Manual Bosch Access Systems GmbH
Opening configurations
Configurator is always started with the configuration Active.acf.
If a different configuration is to be used, then the button can
load an existing configuration from the folder C:\BOSCH\Access
Professional Edition\PE\Data\Cfg (by default).
If the user wishes to make changes to or expand an existing
configuration to be activated at a later date, then s/he can open
a basic configuration, modify it and then save it under a
different name. In this way it is possible to re-use and expand
upon previous configurations, and one does not have to start
every time from the very basic settings in default.acf.
Notice!
The active configuration too can be saved as a working copy
under a new name, and this loaded and worked on at a later
date.

Bosch Access Systems GmbH 2015-11 | | Configuration Manual
Activating a new configuration
Configurator offers the possibility of maintaining multiple
configurations in multiple .acf files. The active configuration is
always stored in the file Active.acf .
!
Caution!
As active.acf is overwritten when a new configuration is
activated, it is urgently recommended that the user make a
backup copy of the active configuration under a new filename.
Configuration files must be opened before they can be
activated. Therefore a previously modified and saved
configuration should be opened.
In order then to activate the opened configuration please
proceed as follows, either:
– Menu: File > Activate configuration or
– Use the button in the toolbar.
The activation then proceeds in stages:
– First confirm the safety check.
: Do you really want to replace the current configuration
with the new configuration?
– The hitherto active configuration is backed up as a file with
the name format: $yyyyMMddhhmmss -Active.acf (y =
year; M = month; d = day; h = hour; m = minute; s =
seconds).
– The currently open configuration is then stored under the
filename Active.acf i.e. the old active configuration will be
overwritten!
A information box shows the name of the saved file: : New
configuration was saved as <filename>!

Propagating configurations to the
controllers
After making changes in the active configuration Active.acf it is
necessary to propagate these changes down to the controllers.
This can be started in two ways:
– Menu File > Send configuration to LAC service
– Using the button in the toolbar
The following dialog appears, in which you can choose which
configuration data will be propagated to the controllers.
Modified and saved data are preselected. You may select further
items or deselect already selected items.
When you have selected which data should be propagated to
the controllers then click OK.

Controllers
The Local Access Controllers (LACs) are the points in Access PE
at which most access control decisions are made. Except for
system-wide control functions, such as the access sequence
check, the controllers can take independent decisions regarding
who is granted access. For this reason, they have all access-
related data in their own memory so that limited and restricted
offline operation is also possible.
In Access PE it is predominantly AMC2 (Access Modular
Controller) controllers that are used. For replacements within
legacy systems, LACi (Local Access Controller integral)
controllers can also be configured.
Defining and modifying new controllers
The buttons (add) and (modify a selected list element)
invoke a dialog box for configuring the interfaces between
Access PE Server and the controllers.
Every controller must have a protocol assigned to it. The
following are settings are available:

CIP Connection via TCP/IP over COM requiring the
virtual COM interface number (COMx); only
available for LACi with IP/Serial transducer.
UDP Connection via UDP requiring the local UDP port
and the IP-Address (or the network name under

Creating Extension boards
You can configure extension boards in the dialogs for both input
signals and output signals. The settings configured in one
dialog will be activated in the other.
You can use and configure three types of extension board in the
Access PE access control system — all three types are processed
via one of the signal dialogs.
–AMC2 4W-EXT - to extend the interfaces of a Wiegand AMC
(AMC2 4W)
–AMC2 8I-8O-EXT — 8 further signals each
–AMC2 16I-16O-EXT — 16 further signals each
Above the list window please select the desired Controller from
the LAC combo-box. These controllers are created with 8 signals
on the main board (=0).
To create the extension board click the button marked I/O

and must be connected to an AMC2-4W.
This extension can only be used with an AMC2-4W.
An AMC2 4W-EXT can be configured with one additional IO-

Entrances
When we talk about entrances, we always mean a whole made
up of several components that belong to an access control
system. Along with the door (which can also be a turnstile, a
mantrap, a barrier or an elevator), the system also includes one
or more readers and potentially buttons and control units (bolts,
motorlocks etc.). The system can also contain optical or
acoustic signaling devices or cameras as additional control
functions.
Creating and modifying door models
A new entrance can be defined using the button or via the
context menu within the list (right-click and select New
Entrance). The entrance name, the door model or device
addresses of the selected door can be edited using the button,
via double click or again via the context menu (right-click and

be used to define authorization groups and individual access
rights in Personnel Management.

It is also necessary to select the number of the controller to
which this entrance is connected, and the Group ID (GID). In
general only the number of the controller requires attention,
because Access PE automatically assigns the next free GID. A
suitable door model must be chosen from the combo-box Door
model. Please consult the Appendix for a table of predefined
door models and their functionalities.
Depending on the door model combo-boxes are displayed for
entry and exit readers, where reader types must be selected.
Each reader must receive a unique address within its controller.
For readers with Wiegand interface only the number of its own
controller's interface is required. For readers with RS485
interface the assigned DIP-address is essential.
The button : Search device data can be used to collect and
display a list of the readers on the current controller. When
collected these data are stored in cache, and can be retrieved
by the : Device data from cache button. If the configuration is
changed the cache will no longer be current and the list will
need to be re-collected.
Notice!
Please ensure that the reader addresses concur with the
devices actually installed.
You can connect a maximum of four readers of type AMC-
Wiegand, and eight of type AMC-RS485 and LACi.

Use of reader address 9:
Reader address 9 has been set up as an aid to configuration,
and serves as a buffer when rearranging parameters. If you have
assigned all the reader addresses of a controller but still need to
rearrange the parameters, then you can temporarily move a
reader to address 9 in order to free another address.
Example: You wish to swap readers 4 and 7. As you can not use
the same address twice proceed by assigning reader 4 to
address 9, move reader 7 to address 4, and finally move reader
9 (originally reader 4) to address 7.

Door contact If the door has a frame contact then this
can be parametrized to facilitate
monitoring the entry of a person. At the
same time, the signal to activate the door
opener is turned off if the door contact
shows that the door is open. This signal is
also used to control the alarm
suppression time.
Bolt contact If the door has a bolt contact sensor then
this can be parameterized to show
whether the door is really closed.
Part of a door-
complex
This parameter indicates whether the door
is part of a door-complex, e.g. a "mantrap"
or airlock. In this case the signals for the
door-complex can ensure that both doors
are never open simultaneously. If only one
door is defined as part of a door-complex
then the synchronisation is not active.

Areas must be configured so that it is in fact possible to move
from real source to real destination without gaps or missing
entrances between.
Example:

Daymodels
Day models describe an abstract daily schedule. Irrespective of
the day of the week a day model defines at which times of the
day access should be granted or denied.
A separate day model is required for every different daily
schedule.
A day model can consist of up to three periods with start and
end times.
By using day models in time models the day models become
associated with specific calendar days.

Timemodels
Time models restrict access at the assigned entrances to
specific times of day. This enables the system to deny access,
for example, during the night, or to impose additional
restrictions on access at weekends.
Access PE uses time models in several ways, for example in
combination with:
–Authorization groups:
Time models can be associated with access rights so that these
access rights apply only at particular times on particular days. It
is equally and simultaneously possible to use access rights with
no time limitations.
–Persons:
Time models assigned to persons restrict the general use of
their cards to the defined dates and time periods.
–Controllers and extension boards:
The generation of entry and exit signals by controllers and
extension boards can also be restricted by time models.
–Doors:
Door opening times can be governed by time models.
–PIN codes:
PIN code entry is an example of an additional security measure
which can be imposed outside of the times defined by a time
model.
–Activation of a motor lock:
A motor lock can be parameterized to be active only within a
particular time model.
Depending on how they are to be used time models are created
in different ways.
Example:
Supposing time models are to be used to restrict access of
persons to weekdays 07:00 to 19:00 and weekends 09:00 to
15:00. Two day models are required:
12
116 en | Timemodels Access Professional
Edition
2015-11 | | Configuration Manual Bosch Access Systems GmbH
1. with a period of 07:00 to 19:00
2. with a period of 09:00 to 15:00
If at the same time a motor lock is to be activated only outside
of these times, then two day models for use by the lock's time
model must be defined as follows:
1. with two periods of 00:00 to 07:00 and 19:00 to 24:00.
2. with two periods of 00:00 to 09:00 and 15:00 to 24:00.
The application of time models
Time models which are associated with personnel data will only
be active if the reader's default settings have not been changed,
and the option No time model check (Display and
parameterization, page 83) thus remains unchecked.
Time models can be used in many ways, so in order to
understand how the system handles multiple assignments
please note the following conflict-resolution rules:
– If a person has access to certain entrances via a time
model, and if that person is given access to the same
entrances without a time model, then the looser restriction
prevails. I.e. in this case the time model will not be applied.
Example:
A person is given the following access rights :
– Access to entrances A, B, C and D within a time model
of 09:00 to 17:00 every day.
– Individual access rights to entrances B and D without
time model.
This person now has access to entrances A and C between
09:00 and 17:00 every day, and unrestricted access to entrances
B and D.
– If a person is given different access rights covering the
same entrances, but governed by different time models,
then the union of the time models is applied.
Example:
A person is given the following access rights:
– Access to entrances A, B, C and D within a time model
of 07:00 to 13:00 every day.
Access Professional
Edition Timemodels | en 117
Bosch Access Systems GmbH 2015-11 | | Configuration Manual
– Access to entrances B, D, E and F within a time model
of 09:00 to 17:00 every day.
The person now has access to entrances A and C from 07:00 to
13:00, to entrances B and D from 07:00 to 17:00 and to
entrances E and F from 09:00 to 17:00
– If a person is assigned to an authorization group with time
models, and if the same person is given a time model for
the use of his card, then the intersection of the defined
periods is applied.
Example:
A person is given the following access rights:
– An authorization group with access to entrances A, B,
C and D, and a time model of 07:00 to 13:00 every day.
– An authorization group with access to entrances B, D,
E and F and a time model of 09:00 to 17:00 every day.
– And additionally a duty model of 11:00 to 19:00 every
day
The person now has access to entrances A and C from 11:00 to
13:00, and to entrances B, D, E, and F from 11:00 to 17:00.

Procedure:
First, the cardholder summons the elevator. This can be done
either via the elevator's own hardware button, or via a card
reader (e.g. Door model 01c).
Next, inside the elevator is another card reader (Door model
07a). This reader grants access to those floors for which the
user's card contains authorizations. The authorized floors can be
indicated to the user, for example, by illuminating only the
buttons for those floors. The user can then select only one of
the authorized floors.

Procedure:
First, the cardholder summons the elevator. This can be done
either via the elevator's own hardware button, or via a card
reader (e.g. Door model 01c).
Next, inside the elevator the user presents his/her card to
another card reader (Door model 07b), and then presses the
button for the desired floor. The AMC checks whether the user
is authorized for the selected floor and, if so, the lift takes the
user there.
In addition this door model possesses the parameter Public
Access, which can be set for each floor individually. If this
parameter is set then authorizations for this floor are not
checked, i.e. any user may proceed to this floor. Moreover
Public Access can be made dependent on a particular time
model, so that authorizations are only checked by the AMC
outside of that time model's designated hours.

Notes:
The E button at the entry reader can arm the IDS (intrusion
detection system). An authorized card and the entry of a PIN
code are required. The IDS will be disarmed upon the first
authorized entry, whereby PIN-code identification will also be
required. In the case of models a to c this is controlled by the
output signal arm/disarm IDS.
In the case of models d to f the arming or disarming is triggered
by a separate pulse of 1 second. A connected bistable relay can
control the IDS for several doors (DCUs / Door control units),
whereby the signals require a logical OR connection to the relay.
The signals IDS is armed and IDS is disarmed must be double
connected at all the relevant DCUs.

Notes:
In contrast to door model 10, door model 14 can use readers
with or without a keypad. A further difference exists in the
assignment of IDS arming rights: only cardholders with sufficient
rights are able to arm or disarm the IDS.
The arming/disarming process is not governed here by use of a
PIN code, but by a button close to the reader which has the
same function as key 7 on the readers with keypads. After
pressing this button the status of the IDS is displayed by the
colored LEDs of the reader.
– Disarmed = alternating green/red blinking light
– Armed = continuous red light
The IDS is armed when presented with a valid card.
Disarming is carried out by pressing the button and presenting a
valid card.
The door does not unlock immediately. To unlock, present the
card once more after disarming.

Turnstiles are the most common means of singling cardholders'
access. In the following examples we have therefore used door
model 3a (turnstile with entry and exit reader).

operation, use their outputs in ascending order after those of
the AMC2 controller, and before the outputs of any I/O
extension board.] For this reason it is not possible to configure
any other kinds of door, or any further elevators, to an AMC
that is used for elevator control.

PIN types
Access Professional Edition provides each cardholder with up to
three Personal Identification Numbers (PINs) which can be used
for different purposes:
–Verification-PIN
This PIN can be requested from cardholders as an extra
security feature at special entrances. The verification PIN is
compared with stored data for the cardholder to ensure
that s/he is the real owner of the card presented.
Each person can choose his/her own 4-8 digit PIN in
accordance with certain general rules (e.g. no numerical
sequences and no palindromes). [The parameter for the
length of the PIN applies equally to verification-, arming-
and door-PINs]. A verification-PIN does not have to be
unique in the system.
If no separate arming-PIN has been defined [i.e. as long as
the check box use separate IDS-PIN is not selected in the
dialog Configurator > Settings] then the verification PIN
may also be used to arm/disarm the IDS.
–Arming-PIN / IDS-PIN
This special PIN is used exclusively to arm and disarm the
alarm system. With door models 10 and 14 first press the 7
key or the door’s push-button.
Each person can choose his/her own 4-8 digit PIN in
accordance with certain general rules (e.g. no numerical
sequences and no palindromes). [The parameter for the
length of the PIN applies equally to verification-, arming-
and door-PINs]. An arming-PIN does not have to be unique
in the system.
If the cardholder wishes simply to pass through the door,
and is required to enter a PIN, then the verification-PIN
must be used. If the the check box use separate IDS-PIN is
selected (Configurator > General settings) then the
18
Access Professional
Edition PIN types | en 167
Bosch Access Systems GmbH 2015-11 | | Configuration Manual
verification-PIN can no longer be used to arm/disarm the
IDS. It is only then that the relevant input fields become
visible in the Personnel dialog.
Notice!
In order to ensure compatibility with previous Access PE
versions the check box for use of separate IDS-PIN is cleared by
default.
–Identification-PIN/ ID-PIN
This PIN identifies a person’s card and must therefore be
unique within the system. Once input this PIN grants
access to the person in accordance with all his/her defined
authorizations. To ensure uniqueness the PIN is generated
by the system and assigned to the person, whereby the
system adheres to the general rules (no numerical
sequences and no palindromes).
Like a physical credential the Identification-PIN enforces
the restrictions assigned to its owner (blocks, time models,
authorizations etc.).
Depending on the reader protocol, you must enter the
Identification PIN on the reader, along with the additional
characters required. In the case of readers enter the pin as
follows: 4 # (Enter) PIN # (Enter). For all other protocols,
the PIN is entered immediately and followed by # (Enter).
The length of this PIN is configurable to between 4 and 8
digits.
[Note: The length of ID-PINs should bear relation to the size
of the installation, in order to render active PINs harder to
guess. For instance, if the installation has 1000 cardholders
then the PINs should be at least 6 digits long in order to
make the guessing of a valid PIN sufficiently improbable,
and random guesses more likely to generate alarms.]
168 en | PIN types Access Professional
Edition
2015-11 | | Configuration Manual Bosch Access Systems GmbH
The PIN types described above are all person-related and
therefore defined and maintained along with other personnel
data. A fourth type is the so-called door-PIN.
–Door-PIN
The PIN belongs to an entrance (Configurator > Entrances).
It must be known by all persons authorized to use it.
instead of the PIN a card may also be used at such
entrances (see = Function PIN or card).
This PIN too can be 4 to 8 digits long. If the use of the door-
PIN is deactivated (e.g. by a time model) then access is
only by card. An identification-PIN will not work either in
this case.
Notice!
The Identification- and door-PIN-types can not be used with
IDS-arming door models 10 and 14.
