BIS - Access Engine (ACE) 4.5
www.boschsecurity.com

Access control has become one of today's most
important technologies for increasing the security of
people, property, and assets. The BIS Access Engine
and sophisticated controller products provide a wide
range of access control features.
Combine the basic Access Engine package with
optional features to build a customized access control
system that meets your needs. Then use the Building
Integration System software to integrate the Access
Engine with your intrusion and video security
equipment.
System overview
The Access Engine (ACE) software, in conjunction with
Bosch access hardware, is a complete access control
system within the Building Integration System (BIS). It
encompasses all the essential features of any
standalone access control system, plus a wide range
of optional enhancements.
Like the other BIS engines, the ACE takes full
advantage of all the extra BIS features, such as
interactive location maps and action plans for
powerful, fully integrated alarm management. Alarm

messages and access control events can be displayed
with graphical location information and workflow
instructions.
ACE uses the standard BIS user interfaces and their
flexibility of customization. Additionally ACE offers
specific access configuration interfaces for
cardholders, access hardware and access rules.
The main benefit of the Building Integration System
family is the integration of a wide variety of security
and safety systems on the same premises. By
combining ACE with other BIS engines (e.g.
Automation and Video) you can design smart security
solutions tailored exactly to the requirements of your
tender.
The Access Engine runs on a single-workstation, in a
client-server system, or within a distributed
environment with a central server and local or regional
servers.
In the distributed multi-server environment all devices,
cardholders and authorizations can be managed from
the top-level server.

• User-definable input fields for supplementary
cardholder information.
• Anti-passback.
• Access area balancing including access sequence
checking provides a means of limiting the number of
people in a given area, automatic arming/disarming if
area is empty/not empty and muster list generation.
• N-Persons authorization will grant access at a door
only when a defined number (N) of authorized
cardholders present their badges to a
correspondingly configured reader. The setting can
be made reader by reader, and from 2 to N (no limit)
persons.
• Mantrap feature for managing two cooperating doors
with two pairs of readers; recommended for high
security levels, e.g. entrances to server rooms or
research departments.
• New: Improved guard tour: a state-of-the-art patrol
tracking system using existing access control readers,
access-sequence and access-time checking. Any
violation of patrol sequence or timing causes an
alarm, which is then tracked by BIS’s sophisticated
alarm management features. Guard tour reports can
be generated from the BIS event log.

Functions
The Access Engine basic package, in combination with
AMC access controllers, offers the following features:
• A wide range of intuitive, template door models
allowing fast and easy hardware configuration (e.g.
standard door, turnstile, elevator with time &
attendance readers etc.).
• Door model configuration dialog generates a wiring
plan for the hardware installer.
• On-the-fly activation of reader and cardholder
configurations in the access controllers.
• Time models for time-based access control, including
the definition of special days, recurring public
holidays, etc.
• Time models for automatic activation/deactivation of
cardholder accounts, such as access rules, PIN codes
etc.
• Time models for automatic activation/deactivation of
system settings, such as setting an office door to stay
unlocked from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Additional PIN code for arming /disarming intruder
alarms.
• Temporary blocking / unblocking of cardholders,
either manually or time-controlled.
• Blacklisting of cards.

• Random screening feature: Cardholders accessing or
leaving the site can be stopped at random intervals
and directed to security personnel for closer
inspection. Cards belonging to designated “VIPs“ can
be excluded from random screening.
• Visitor management: Visitors’ cards can be tracked
and handled separately as regards their validity
periods and the possible need for an escort.
• Interface for arming/disarming an IDS (Intrusion
Detection System) including authorization handling
and card assignment.

not admitted directly. Instead the reader performs a
request for entrance which appears as a message on
the operator's screen.
An Action Plan (see BIS optional accessories) shows
the operator the cardholder’s image as stored in the
ACE database in conjunction with a live image from a
camera near the entrance/reader that sent the
request. The operator compares both images and
decides whether or not to open the door.
• Elevator interface for controlling up to 64 floors via an
elevator-internal card reader, and for the assignment
of floor authorizations to cardholders.
• Interface for importing personnel data from an HR
system or exporting such information from ACE to
such a system.
• New: Improved card personalization for importing
cardholder images and creating customized corporate
badge designs printable on standard card printers.
• A routing feature to ensure that personnel follow
prescribed routes within the premises.
• Remote door unlock feature e.g. by mouse click on an
icon in a BIS interactive location map.
• Creation of logical areas, e.g. single rooms, groups of
rooms, whole floors or parking lots, to which special
access control points can be assigned.
• The ability to limit the number of people or cars
accessing a logical area.
• Full archive and restore capability for system data.
• Powerful client/server architecture based on the BIS
server.
• The ability to customize software administrator
rights, if needed on a dialog-by-dialog basis.
• Flexible alarm management for a huge range of alarm
conditions (e.g. denied access, tamper-detection,
badge blacklisted, duress alarm, etc.) optionally
combinable with BIS features such as interactive
location maps and action plans.
• Utilization of the Bosch controller family's digital,
monitored I/Os for additional control and monitoring
functions, including intrusion- and tamper-detection.
• Easy integration with Bosch or 3rd party video
systems such as matrix switches, DVRs, IP-cameras
etc.
• Detailed logging of access events and alarms for legal
compliance and forensic investigation.
– Audit trail for changes to master records and
authorizations, including creation, modification
and deletion of records.
– Integrated reporting with filtering capability.
– Export to standard CSV-format for further
processing.
• Support for up to four different Wiegand card formats
simultaneously.
• Comprehensive online help.
• Mass data change for authorizations and other data.

access control system through video technology. When
a reader is in video verification mode the cardholder is

Parking lot management

This feature allows the definition and use of the door
model “parking lot” which contains the control of two
barriers for entrance and exit and their traffic lights,
which prevent access when the lot has reached
maximum capacity.
Each parking lot can be divided into logical areas, with
a maximum number of cars defined for each.
Authorization to pass the barrier and park in a logical
area can be assigned to cardholders in the standard
dialogs. Load-balancing of the parking lots is also
possible, with current capacity information displayed
on the operator’s screen. Load balancing of cars
(parking lots) and persons (access areas) is handled
separately, so that it is possible to track the location
of both cardholder and car simultaneously.
Accessories for BIS Access Engine
Extended parking management
Provides management of guest parking, including the
generation of parking vouchers and notification about
visitors who overstay their scheduled appointments.
Application Programming Interface

Engine with third-party applications such as Identity
Management, Time & Attendance and advanced Visitor
Management systems.
Integration of key cabinets
Integration of Deister and Kemas key cabinets for
securing physical keys and monitoring their usage.
Increasing access control capacity
ACE scales easily to the growing needs of your sites.
Additional MAC (Master Access Controller) licenses
enable you to increase geographical coverage or
performance. A growing number of staff or visitors can
be accommodated by additional cardholder licenses.

Licenses to increase the number of entrances are
available in steps of 32, 128 or 512. An entrance in this
sense is equivalent to an ACE door model, making it
easy to calculate requirements.
Example: Your site has 2 main entrances with an entry
and an exit reader each, 26 office doors with entrance
reader and 1 mantrap for the server room. The total
number of door models/entrances is 29, irrespective
of the number of readers involved. A total of 32
entrances is already covered by the ACE basic package
license.
