CRC200+ Online Door Controller

CRC200+

'Versatile Networked Solution'

Forms part of an online access control system by connecting it together with Norpass3

PRODUCT FEATURES & BENEFITS

CRC200+ is suitable for controlling access through doors, barriers, rising bollards, turnstiles, etc., by validating cards, key fobs, vehicle tags, PINs, etc. It forms part of an access management system by linking it to Norpass3 Access Control Management Software together with further reader controllers.

This versatile controller can manage up to 65,000 users and supports both Clock & Data and Wiegand interface formats. It can be used to control access via 2 doors/barriers and provide local anti-passback control. It supports a range of both standalone and managed access control features.

The controller can be used for either sequential or random cards and offers a range of additional features such ‘PIN and Prox’ when used online to Norpass3.

benefits

  • Compact design allows it to be fitted in small spaces
  • Can be configured for one or two doors
  • Can be used with most reader technologies thereby supporting a wide range of applications
  • Capacity to handle up to 65,000 cards with a wide range of access rights
  • Block validation and voiding for quick and easy card management
  • Fast and simple card verification
  • Can be used with a card capture reader
  • Variable output relay timing to match most applications
  • Prevents card misuse
  • Can be readily incorporated into the Norpass3 software to reduce the cost of expansion

Flexible Two-Door Control for Small-to-Medium Access Installations

The CRC200+ serves as an ideal entry point for networked access control in retail stores, small offices, community centres, and light industrial facilities requiring control of one or two access points.

Its integrated LCD display and keypad enable on-site programming without a laptop, making it perfect for standalone sites that may later connect to Norpass3 for centralised management.

This controller shines in applications requiring both door and barrier control—such as warehouse loading bays with pedestrian doors, gym facilities with turnstile entry, or car park access points.

The dual-voltage input (12-24V DC) accommodates existing power infrastructure, while support for 65,000 sequential cards means it can handle substantial user databases without network connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the CRC200+ work both standalone and networked? Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the CRC200+ operates as a fully functional standalone controller and can later be integrated into a Norpass3 networked system via RS485 connection, protecting your initial investment.

What reader formats does the CRC200+ support? Frequently Asked Questions

The controller supports both Clock & Data (ABA Track 2) and Wiegand interface formats through its two 5-wire reader interfaces, compatible with most proximity and smart card readers.

How many cards can the CRC200+ store? Frequently Asked Questions

In sequential mode, it stores 65,000 card numbers with 1,700 events. In random mode, it holds 8,000 random card numbers with 1,300 events in non-volatile memory.

Does the CRC200+ support anti-passback? Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the CRC200+ provides local anti-passback control between its two reader interfaces, preventing credential misuse in entry/exit configurations.

What is the maximum cable distance from controller to reader? Frequently Asked Questions

Readers can be located up to 100 metres from the CRC200+ using Belden 9536 or equivalent 6-core shielded cable. RS485 communications can extend up to 1,200 metres.
