Kantech releases EntraPass v5.01 security software

Kantech's EntraPass

Kantech, part of Tyco Security Products, announced on Jan. 12 the release of EntraPass v5.01 security software, which has been designed to help customers keep up with their changing access control security needs whether they are managing one building or multiple sites from a network.

New features of EntraPass include multi-swipe functionality when using the KT-400 four-reader controller. Authorized cardholders can perform multiple functions through either a double or triple swipe of their card, all without having to access the EntraPass security software. The functions include activating relays, locking/unlocking doors, arming/disarming the alarm panel and more. 

“Providing multi-swipe functionality is an important enhancement available with EntraPass v5.01 and it’s a capability that customers are actively looking for as part of their access control solution,” said Scott McNulty, product manager. “This capability provides greater flexibility and options to help users better manage everyday security tasks.”

EntraPass v5.01 now integrates with American Dynamic’s VideoEdge NVR and allows users to view, manage and control video being recorded on the NVR through EntraPass software. With EntraPass v5.01, users can now connect to an unlimited number of video servers through a new feature called EntraPass InfiniView.

In addition, EntraPass v5.01 provides a gateway to hattrix and the option to provide customers with a full spectrum of security services -- from hosted to managed.

EntraPass is a robust suite of high performance software that allows customers to design and operate any number of doors, where card access is required. EntraPass is compatible with Kantech’s entire line of door controllers.
