September 28, 2007—Linear LLC, an innovator in wireless access control market, announces the availability of its latest wireless gate and door controller, the AP-5. The AP-5 has three separate relays: access, obstacle, and configurable to either access or obstacle.
Unlike previous wireless controllers, says Linear, the access relays in the AP-5 are programmable, giving installers maximum flexibility to configure them for use with vehicular gates, pedestrian gates, security gates, office doors, or any combination. The AP-5 is suited for installations in office buildings, parking facilities, gated communities, apartments, condominiums, and other multiple occupant locations, says the company.
The AP-5 also is designed for use in environments where RF noise or wireless signal interference can be a problem. The controller features a built-in, high-sensitivity, narrowband 318-MHz super heterodyne receiver with an external antenna that can pick up signals from a Linear MegaCode block-coded transmitter from up to 500 feet away.
