Intelligent Door Controller

There are two types of door controller, ‘IDC-485-6/4’ and ‘IDC-E-6/4’. Each controller has the same functionality but differs in the way that it connects to the main JANUS PC/server.

The IDC-485-6/4 requires a multi-drop 2 or 4-wire comms and the IDC-E-6/4 connects directly to a TCP/IP network (ethernet). Both types of controller can be used on the same system.

eSeries Controllers

When using an IDC-E-6/4 or IPC-E-16./16 they connect directly to a TCP/IP network (ethernet) and require a unique IP address on the system.
