ZKTeco InBio 260: IP-based Biometric 2 Door Access Control Panel

ZKTeco InBio 260 is a part of the InBioseries of IP-based Biometric Door Access Control Panels. The unit provides a truly internal biometric identification mechanism by carrying out the matching of fingerprints on the panels. This process is supported by the FR Series of readers which transmit fingerprint templates to InBio through RS485, enabling fast and accurate matching with templates stored in its database. Additionally, the InBio 260 is designed to support traditional RFID readers through its Wiegand inputs.

The device can be easily installed on a network and supports both TCP/IP and RS-485 communication. To assist with configuration, an auto-discovery tool is provided which permits the direct and easy setting and modification of network parameters.

In terms of capacity, the InBio 260 can handle up to 3000 fingerprint templates, 30,000 badge users, and it can store up to 100,000 events and transactions. An important feature to note is the preservation of data in case of power loss, with the controller remaining operational even when the network connection is interrupted. The InBio 260 is a part of ZKTeco's commitment to ensuring the lowest total cost of ownership for customers. This is evident through features like easy firmware upgrades without the need for advanced tools.

The controller's functionalities extend beyond just door control. Upon programming, its auxiliary relays can be customized to function as lights, alarms, or intrusion detection panels. Additionally, it provides options to control extra locking devices or gate controllers. This 2-door model incorporates advanced access control functions such as Anti-Passback, First-Card Opening, Multi-Card Opening, Duress Password Entry, and both Auxiliary input and output linkages built into its firmware.

For software developers looking to integrate the InBio 260 into existing setups, an SDK is available. This allows for integration with current security or personnel management applications. ZK also offers customization of the InBio firmware upon customer requests.
