INTUS 5300, the new time & attendance recording and access control terminal from PCS, is amazingly compact considering the performance it offers, and it features an entirely unique reader signaling device in addition to its brightly lit graphical display. Just as the previous models in the design-oriented INTUS terminal series, the new product has won the renowned iF Design Award and thus proven itself a worthy member of the INTUS family.

Magic for people in a hurry:  the multifunctional “MagicEye”

The most conspicuous design feature of the INTUS 5300 is its central multifunctional indicator – the MagicEye. A multicolored circle combined with two LEDs ensures clear and unmistakeable optical status signaling to passing users. The green LED in the blue circle indicates the default setting, “I’m going in”, while the red LED outside of the circle signals “I’m leaving.” Even a fleeting glance at the multicolored circle leaves no doubt about whether an access card has been accepted (green circle) or declined (red circle).

The formal design of the keyboard surface is an additional eyecatching feature. The interplay between the matted area, the polished lines and the raised buttons has a very attractive effect, almost enticing users to operate the high-quality membrane keyboard.

A large display with environmental-friendly LED backlighting informs about times, time balances, vacation days or absence reasons. Contactless booking is performed via an integrated RFID reader, while five freely programmable function keys, two scroll keys and an optional numeric keypad are provided for user interaction.

Consistently environmentally-friendly design and heavy-duty security for industrial applications.

The INTUS 5300 features a consistently environmentally-friendly design free from heavy metals, and it is easily recyclable. The LED’s automatically dim down when not used for extended periods of time, thus reducing energy consumption. They automatically switch back to full brightness when an RFID card comes near. The terminal has a shock-resistant and water-resistant housing (up to IP65), durable keys with a well defined working point, a device lock as well as a tamper contact. Data is encrypted for the transmission to the host computer. An Ethernet interface, digital inputs and outputs as well as serial ports are provided for connectivity, and there are several power supply options: externally or internally via a 230V power supply unit, external low voltage supply (12V or 24V) or “Power over Ethernet” according to the IEEE 802.3af standard.
