Overview
The Realtime RS9n records attendance and controls one door with fingerprint, card or PIN. It suits offices, shops, schools and gyms.
Is it right for you?
Choose it if you need fingerprint, card or PIN sign-in for up to 1,200 people and storage for 100,000 attendance records. It works offline and also connects by network cable for live reports. For touch-free sign-in, look at a face recognition terminal instead.
Key features
- Separate capacities: 1,200 fingerprints, 1,200 cards, 1,200 PIN users, 100,000 attendance records
- 2.6 inch colour display
- Connects by Ethernet (TCP/IP) and USB drive
- Built-in backup battery keeps it running through short power cuts
- Lock relay output for one door with Wiegand input and output for an extra reader or controller

What else you need
- RFID cards or key tags for card users
- For door control: an electric lock (EM lock, electric strike or drop bolt), an exit button and a 12 V DC access control power supply for the lock
- A network cable point where it is mounted, if you want live reports
Installation
Mount it on the wall at the entrance where people sign in, near a power point. Door control needs wiring to the lock, exit button and power supply, which is a job for an installer.
