Introduction

The document describes the functions and configuration options of the software Facility Management Control Unit.

The Facility Management Control Unit is software for access control management. It can be used in an enclosed area such as a sports or entertainment center, an airport zone, universities or security areas. The main components of the software solution are:

• An automated passage control with two-part door and signal lighting
• Barcode (or/and RFID) scanners that read identification data from the customer's ticket or card
• Tracking cameras observing the passage of customers
• Info screens showing inbound and outbound information to the customer
• One or more external speakers
• One or more additional monitors with content tailored to customer needs

The main features are:

• Opening access control upon successful ticket validation
• Interaction with customer in response to various events through:
  • Light effects
  • Voice prompts through internal or external speakers
  • Acoustic confirmation of the reading process from barcode scanners
  • Visual content displayed on an info screen
  • Safe opening and closing of the swing doors by monitoring the passage area

Supported operating modes:

• Normal
• Service
• Fire alarm
• Emergency

The variants of Entry Tickets:

• Single entry ticket with closing of access control after passage of one person
• Multiple entry ticket with permanent access control
• Adjustable time intervals
• Consideration of additional conditions about potential-free contacts

Technical Background

The FMCU software is based on a customized UNIX operating system, which has been produced using the Yocto Project. Only the required services are activated in the operating system. The optimal support packages for the CPU type are taken into account when creating the operating system. These so-called Board Support Packages (BSP) are provided by the hardware manufacturers and allow optimal and efficient utilization of the hardware resources.

Functions

In principle, the functions are mapped via the signal processing. The signals are generated by different sources including:

• Light bar
• Light sensor
• Ceiling sensor
• Other

The location of the sensors is shown in the figure below. In each half of the frame there is a so-called "inner zone" and an "outer zone". When passing through an access control, a signal flow diagram is generated, which is used to map the following functions.

The light bar serves as a source for several signals and is also divided into different areas.

The following signals are installed in the standard configuration.

Signalname Signal Name	Rahmenhälfte Frame Half
Entry Confirmation	Entry
Entry Gate Sensor [U1_E2]	Entry
