(25/06/2007)

Control FreQ are importing a brand new GSM based access control system called M-PRES (Mobile Phone Remote Entry System).

Operating on quad band GSM technology, the device offers high security access control using Caller ID as the method of user identification. There are no call costs to the users as the unit never actually answers the call and access can be via mobile or landline phone.

M-PRES is a tiny self contained unit with an onboard user database ready to go which offers plug and play installation and easy user management. The unit is stand alone and can be integrated with any new or existing system. M-PRES is available in 4 different versions from a 15 user up to 2000 user and custom versions of up to 4000 users.

Users can be added, deleted and edited easily using the software interface. Access rights and users details are updated in an instant without the need of issuing cards, tags or any other physical device makes the system a viable solution for many access control applications.

Users can be divided up in 16 different user groups each with a unique set of security level and time zone access rights. The unit maintains a log file of up to 1900 events in its onboard database and logs user name, phone number, time and date.
