1.2.4   SYSTEM TOPOLOGY - OTIS V3: DECs with External Readers

DIAGRAM-2: OTIS v3 TOPOLOGY – using External Readers (to Control Turnstiles)

The diagram below shows the topology using an external reader that is wired to the Galaxy 635 DRM board to control the turnstile / lock relay. THIS SOLUTION WILL CONTROL TURNSTILES.

• A GalaxyOperator configures the Elevator Floor Group & DEC Modes at the SG Client/Server and loads the configuration to the Galaxy 635 OEI Panel. The cardholder/card data, access groups, time schedules, default floors and other special features are also stored at the Galaxy OEI Panel.

• The 635OEIPanel sends the DEC settings, Floor Groups, free/authorized floors and DEC Mode to each DEC via the Otis Layer-3 Switch.

• When passengers present credentials to an external reader, the card data is sent to the 635 DRM Board inside the Galaxy OEI Panel. The Galaxy OEI Panel makes the access decision (grant or deny), based on the card & access rules stored in the Panel. The access decision is returned to the DEC via the Layer-3 Switch. The DRM controls the turnstile / Lock Relay. The Otis DES/DER server decides which elevator car is the most appropriate, based on passenger load and any special card features (such as default floor, VIP, split group, and other special features).

 

NOTE: Use the Galaxy 635-Configuration Tool program your DRM Boards to unique ID numbers (DRM must start at #2 since OEI Board is #1).
NOTE: All DRMs must be installed in the same OEI Panel. Contact Galaxy if you need assistance with a large-scale solution.
