Method and system for providing cross-platform remote control and monitoring of facility access controller

摘要

A method and system for providing cross-platform remote control and monitoring of a facility electronic access controller includes a CPU, a non-volatile memory, at least one of a network port and a cross-platform port, and an input/output interface. The system includes an input access control device operatively linked to the interface. The input access control device generates identification data of a user. The system also has an output access control device operatively linked to the interface. The system also includes a cross-platform network and a remote computer operatively linked to the facility access controller by the cross-platform network, whereby the cross-platform network enables remote operation of the facility electronic access controller irrespective of compatibility between an operating system of the remote computer and the operating system of said facility access controller.
