retained in local memory and reported to the central data base files
upon restoration of communications. The entry booth shall begin the
report to the central station's database within 10 seconds after
communications have been restored.
e. Entry Booth Local Processor Subsystem Capacities: As a minimum,
the entry booth local processor subsystem shall have sufficient
capacity to control and monitor a combination of 6 electric door
strikes, card readers, keypads, or other entry control terminal and
facility interface devices. The entry booth local processor subsystem
shall provide capacity to store a subset of the entry control reference
file database sufficient to support the enrollees requiring entry
through each booth, and including personal, entry authorization, and
identifier data for each enrollee as needed to support passage
requests. The local processor subsystem shall make identification
decisions and control portals so that all entry control functions are
done at the local panel. The entry booth local processor subsystem
shall provide a local transaction history file with capacity to store
at least 1,000 entry control transactions without losing any data.
f. Diagnostics: The entry booth local processor subsystem shall
incorporate built-in diagnostics implemented in software/firmware,
hardware or both. Each time the entry booth local processor subsystem
is started up or re-booted it shall automatically execute a series of
built-in tests and report equipment malfunctions, configuration errors,
and inaccuracies to the central station. The system shall annunciate a
fail-safe alarm if the local processor fails the built-in diagnostics.
Diagnostic aids shall be provided within the entry booth local
processor subsystem to aid in system set-up, maintenance, and
troubleshooting.
g. Memory Type and Size: The design of the memory into which enrollee
entered data is stored shall ensure storage of entered data for a
minimum of 1 year in the absence of power from sources external to the
entry booth.
h. Tamper Protection: The local processor subsystem shall
monitor all
service entry panels for tamper. Tamper lines shall not be
accessible
except through tamper protected entry panels. Entry panels
shall have
key locks. The booth shall have the capability to be taken
off-line
for service.
i. Entry Booth Configuration: Entry booths shall be closed-in
structures suitable for occupancy by 1 person and shall incorporate: a
personnel passage area, equipment bay, a low security entry/exit door
and a high security entry/exit door. Entry booths shall be configured
with paired [card readers] [keypads], 1 each, on the high security
entry/exit door and low security entry/exit door; a key release switch
outside the low security door; a glass break type emergency release
switch. Both doors to the entry booth shall be normally secured.
j. Entry Booth Operation: The entry booth shall be designed to allow
passage requests to be initiated from only 1 door at a time. The
person shall enter the booth by presenting valid credential card to the
card reader or keypad identification code data to the keypad device.
An unsuccessful attempt to enter the booth shall generate an entry
denial alarm. The booth shall incorporate a personal identity
verification device as specified, and the person shall be granted
egress from the booth after successful personal identity verification.
