BS EN 60839-11-32 is a European standard that discusses electronic access control systems.
BS EN 60839-11-32 defines the web services interface for electronic access control systems. This includes listing electronic access control system components, their logical composition, monitoring their states, and controlling them. It also includes a mapping of mandatory and optional requirements as per IEC 60839-11-1.
BS EN 60839-11-32 applies to physical security only. Physical security prevents unauthorized personnel, attackers, or accidental intruders from physically accessing a building, room, etc.
Web services usage and device management functionality are outside of the scope of this
BS EN 60839-11-32. Refer to IEC 60839-11-31 for more information.
BS EN 60839-11-32 does not in any way limit a manufacturer to add other protocols or extend the protocol defined here.
BS EN 60839-11-32 on alarm and electronic security systems is relevant for:
An electronic access system is a system that is capable of making various types of information accessible by means of a computer and a telecommunications facility.
BS EN 60839-11-32 makes it possible to build an alarm and electronic security system with clients, typically a monitoring console, and devices, typically an access control unit, from different manufacturers using common and well-defined interfaces.
BS EN 60839-11-32 provides new interoperability opportunities by separating configuration from control and monitoring. In traditional systems, the central management system pushes all configurations data to devices on startup and expects that this configuration data is not changed by other clients. Instead, a client shall expect that all information is stored on end-devices and can be changed by others.
An EACS system defined by BS EN 60839-11-32 relies on service-oriented architecture principles. This allows installations where different components can be replaced or updated independently.
