Inner Range Inception System – Info & User Guide

Considering Inner Range’s Inception System?

When considering an access control system for your business, commercial property or large site it would be hard not to consider Inner Range’s Inception System. Built and designed around the high-security Inner Range Integriti architecture, the Inception system comes with all the bells and whistles of a Tier One system but the ease of use and functionality of a web based easy-to-deploy system.

Web Powered Convenience

Unlike the more traditional cost-prohibitive Access Control systems, Inception does not require software to be installed on a computer, no need to leave a computer on site and no issues with software/firmware compatibility. Instead, the installation process is as simple as powering up the controller, connecting the network cable (or use the optional WiFi adapter) and using any web browser to navigate to Inception’s web page. Here you will find everything you need to set-up, commission and operate the entire system.

Easy To Program & Easy To Commission

Inner Range’s Inception’s web interface features an industry-first interactive Commissioning Checklist that guides the technician through the commissioning process. When followed from start to finish, the configuration process can be completed efficiently in a logical way, minimising the risk of missing important configuration settings. Technicians can commission a system with confidence, knowing that they have covered everything, from core programming, to custom automation, changing default credentials, backing up the database and downloading a commissioning report, without missing a step!

Budget Friendly Security Solution

The Inception Controller is a budget friendly security solution that is both powerful and very flexible. With no need for additional software costs and truly universal inputs & outputs, Inception can often be deployed as a stand-alone controller reducing the need for additional hardware.

For example, Inception’s 8 universal inputs can be used to connect intruder detection devices such as PIR’s and window sensors, or they can be used to connect access control sensors such as door reeds and door lock tongue sense devices.

Inception also features 4 universal outputs which can be configured to control door locks,  switch strobe lights and siren screamers or control other devices for automation purposes.

Inception also features an RS-485 OSDP reader bus, meaning that up to 8 Inner Range SIFER smart card readers can be connected directly to the controller to provide card access for both in and out access for up to 4 doors. All this is possible without the need to add any additional hardware modules to the system, however Inception’s RS-485 LAN expansion port does allow for further expansion where required.
