Project:Car Park Gate
Car Park Gate
At Ujima House, the car park barrier is access controlled. The building landlord approached us with a request to make the car park unusable for non-authorised users. The list of non-authorised car park users is a small number.
This wiki article will not include any security-sensitive information.
Hardware in place
Nice automation barrier system, connects to Chameleon Controls AC230SADK keypad. By the look of it, this just signals via a relay to the barrier, rather than using some fancy protocol. (The barrier system itself can be networked, using some weird proprietary Bluebus two-wire connection)
The Chameleon Controls keypad has a low-frequency (433MHz) RFID reader.
The barrier itself has a radio remote with two buttons, the top button opens/closes the barrier to full extent the lower button on the remote opens/closes the barrier to about 60 degrees.
Possibilities: ANPR with blacklist.
