PXL-500P Tiger Controller II

*Note Keri Systems has breathed new life into legacy PXL-500 systems; renowned for their reliability and functionality. With new upgrade ability under the Doors.NET Client/Server software, traditional PXL-500 based systems customers will enjoy an expanded feature set and extended life. Ultimately, Keri will embark on enhancements to the popular hardware package that will extend the PXL-500 family far into the future. PXL-500 is here for the long term!

Powerful, high-quality, sophisticated access control systems at prices that are much less than others? How did Keri do it?

Lets start with the world class hardware:

A RISC-based multiprocessor platform, resulting in the new PXL-500 Tiger II Controller, its companion SB-593 Expansion Board, and high performance, low cost proximity readers.

The PXL-500 Tiger Controller has all of the functionality needed to manage a single door, alarm output, and 2 reader ports. A second door can be added when used with SB-593 Satellite Expansion Board.

The SB-593 Satellite Expansion Board economically provides second door control plus extra general purpose inputs and outputs.

The PXL-500 Tiger II Controller Platform

The new PXL-500 Tiger II Controller platform has taken Keri's acclaimed proximity-based access control system to the next level. Strong enough to manage a 256 door network at a single site or 256 doors per site at multiple sites, yet tame enough to handle a single door, the PXL-500 continues Keri's tradition of flexibility and expandability.

UL/CSA CERTIFICATION: The PXL-500 is UL certified under UL-508 (Control Equipment)
