Johnson Controls, Inc.

Johnson Controls, announces the release of CEM Systems AC2000 v10.0, which offers users a new modernised look and feel along with new features such as enhanced enterprise capabilities that increase the performance and scope of the AC2000 access control system suite from CEM Systems.

Enhanced enterprise system

CEM Systems AC2000 v10.0 workstation client applications have been re-styled with a modern, clean and intuitive interface. The restyle has focused on the user experience with improvements to all visual elements of the applications. Operators are now able to select their preferred theme (light or dark) to run their AC2000 Workstation Client applications in.

The enhanced enterprise system provides superior centralised access control and monitoring capability

A major feature of AC2000 v10.0 is the enhancements to the AC2000 Enterprise offering for AC2000, AC2000 Lite and AC2000 Airport editions. The enhanced enterprise system provides superior centralised access control and monitoring capability where wide geographical distribution occurs, or where departmental or business unit separation is necessary. The new architecture improves device configuration, reporting, alarm processing and personnel management across multiple site locations.

Visitor escort functionality

A business or organisation can scale its single site AC2000 access control system to a multi-site enterprise solution, while at the same unifying policy requirements and reducing administrative and operational costs. Each business unit can be administered at a local and/or centralised level. Other features of AC2000 v10.0 include new visitor escort functionality to ensure visitors are not left unaccompanied around secured areas, and unrestricted AC2000 Authorization levels to reduce configuration times for users and user groups.

Building on the range of ID scanner integrations, AC2000 now offers a new interface to SnapShell ID and passport scanner.
