At the heart of PAC-BLU is the “Sentinel” web management platform. Unlike traditional access control solutions, PAC-BLU’s Sentinel offers easy management of thousands of PAC-BLU devices and end-points – saving installers and administrators time and money.
Unlike many other systems out there, PAC-BLU has no limit on the number of users or devices connected into an enterprise system. Sentinel also centralizes management and assignment of users, eKeys, and time schedules. The system is easy to use and has a clean user experience.
With advanced capabilities to easily modify access schedules, grant access, and revoke access for a group of users, the web portal elegantly bypasses the need to scroll through lists of users to make quick changes. “Sentinel” also powerfully links access with accountability. It enables proactive monitoring of your locks’ access history, ensuring users are held in compliance with your enterprise policies for authorized access.
View a comprehensive record of all access events, with detailed monitoring and analysis of security data in real time.
Organize devices to streamline management and save time on deploying credentials for users.
Define and manage access levels within Sentinel and assign full-access, time-based, user-based, or one-time eKeys.
Never cut a key again! Turn smartphones into keys and remove the hassle of traditional access control systems.
Implement uniform security policies and configurations across your entire network, ensuring consistent access control and system behavior.
In traditional access control environments, keys and fobs can be stolen, shared, or duplicated – leading to inaccurate audit trails.
PAC-BLU utilizes mobile credentials to provide security managers with accurate activity logs, empowering them to promptly take action on accurate data. Audit trails record a history of all types of events including unlocks, relocks, eKey assignments, and device modifications.
In PAC-BLU, administrators wield unparalleled control through customizable eKey capabilities. Whether granting full access privileges, establishing time-based restrictions, enabling one-time-use keys, or setting expiration and start dates, administrators tailor access permissions to match specific needs.
This granular control ensures optimal security and flexibility, empowering administrators to adapt access permissions seamlessly to evolving requirements.
Device Groups save time by simplifying eKey distribution for system administrators. For instance, administrators can create groups based on working shifts, ensuring that employees have access to the required areas during their designated hours. Alternatively, groups can be organized by building, allowing seamless access management tailored to different locations within a facility.
This flexibility empowers administrators to optimize access control strategies according to specific operational needs, enhancing efficiency and security across diverse environments.
Save time and money by remotely distributing credentials through Sentinel’s Web Management portal and securely store eKeys directly on an individual’s phone.
NexGen provides users with quick and seamless access to secure areas. Mobile credentials are assigned in real time to immediately provide or remove access from individuals.
Users assigned “Installer” permissions in Sentinel have the ability to change lock types, set dwell time, auto-relock timers, and more customizations directly in the app.
Utilizing AES-128 bit encryption, unique session tokens, PKI technology, and cryptographic key exchange, NexGen provides end-to-end security for all users.
Transitioning to digital credentials with NexGen significantly reduces the environmental impact associated with traditional physical access systems.
Purposefully designed to be the simplest electronic device you own, PAC-BLU simplifies the way you setup and make changes to your locks by giving you access directly from your phone.
Once a user is assigned “Installer” permissions in Sentinel, they have the ability to add, modify, and remove locks from your organization. Lock names, lock types, scheduled opens, re-lock triggers, sensor configuration, and schedule exceptions can all be managed from the NexGen app.
Installing and configuring a PAC-BLU device is quick and easy. After connecting your lock to both power and your locking endpoint, open the mobile app to view the device you’d like to add to your company. Simply “tap” the lock to add it to your company and follow the simple instructions to turn your smartphone into a key for any door with a PAC-BLU device! Adding a request-to-exit button or door sensor is as easy as wiring it in and enabling it in the app.
Ensure uninterrupted system operation during power outages with the TFB2, a versatile accessory for the Access Series. Simply connect a 9V battery to the terminal for continued power until power is restored.
