Viking AES-NET Network Board

Add One Local and up to 32 Remote Wiegand Type Proximity Card Readers to the AES-2000

The AES-NET board, included with the AES-2000 allows a local Wiegand device such as a Proximity Card Reader to be added to the AES-2000 accessible door entry system. Using Proximity cards instead of keyless entry codes, the building manager keeps control over the number of people that can let themselves into the building.

The Wiegand device used may be the Viking model HID-1 Proximity Card Reader or any other card reader, RF transmitter, or digital keypad that outputs 26 bit Wiegand data.

In addition to a directly connected Wiegand device, the AES-NET board also provides two wire CAN bus connections which supports up to 32 additional remote points of entry.

Each additional remote entry point requires one Viking Model ES-3 door controller, one Wiegand device, and a door strike or magnetic lock of your choice. Only one pair of wires are needed to wire all 32 entry system door controllers back to the AES-NET board.
