Paxton Compact is a standalone single-door access control system, with all control electronics housed within the reader. Multiple Compact systems can be installed across a site using the same tokens. The Vandal Proof Reader features a cylindrical design that allows the control electronics to be recessed into the wall, making it suitable for access points where the reader may be exposed to vandalism.
The reader connects directly to the power supply and locking device, with additional connections available for an exit button. Installation within metal should be avoided, as this can reduce the token read range.
User tokens are ready for use once the system is installed. Each token is supplied with a corresponding shadow card, which can be presented to any reader on the site to invalidate a lost or unwanted token. Additional functions, including colour-coded access zoning, can be configured using the proximity function card pack.
