Hotel solutions

Codeks hotel software and hardware are designed to be used in small or medium-sized hotels. The Codeks software for hotels include tools for managing hotel reservations and tools for controlling access to hotel areas.

What do you need to implement access control in a hotel?

Jantar’s access control hardware for hotels is specially adapted to the requirements for safety and control of access to individual hotel rooms. In combination with our Codeks Apartment Kit or Codeks Hotel software, it enables the allocation of access rights to guests on request, manages the reservations of hotel rooms and gives and enables the status overview of hotel rooms.
The structure of the hotels’ access control system is based on the traditional advanced access control, where access readers are in housings separated from the main access controllers, which are located in secure control rooms or cabinets.

The operating principle of the hotel system

1. Guest check-in

Upon guest check-in, the receptionist activates their reservation and issues them a card (or other means) allowing them to access their hotel room.

Guest access rights are already prepared in the system, although they are only activated upon guest arrival and hotel check-in.

2. Enabling access – sending of access rights

After the guests check in, the server, where the Codeks Apartment Kit or Codeks Hotel software is running, initiates the sending of access rights for the relevant hotel rooms.

By granting guests access to individual hotel rooms, they also gain access to other common hotel areas such as dining room, parking lot, wellness, etc.

3. Guests’ entry into the hotel room

Upon arrival to the allocated hotel room, guests are already able to enter the room and use all hotel services in other common hotel areas.

By using special readers with a card holder, it is possible to manage the rooms’ electricity use and thus save electricity and simultaneously gain information about the guest’s presence in the room.

Access control

Do you wish for a reliable control over who enters your business premises and to track their movement throughout the building? Maybe restrict access to the rooms where you keep sensitive data and expensive equipment? Or do you simply wish to replace traditional keys and locks with more secure and flexible control methods?

What do you need to implement an access control system?

Simple access control

For the purpose of implementing simple access control, you require standalone access controllers as well as appropriate identification means (cards, key tags, PIN codes, etc.) in addition to electric locks.
Simple access control systems do not require a connection to the server or additional software.

Standalone access controllers

Standalone access controllers

Standalone access controllers are sufficient for simple access control. Both the reader, which reads identification means, and the controller, which operates the electronic lock, are installed in the same housing.
Special controller versions are also equipped with a keyboard for entering a numerical code (coded keypad). Standalone controllers do not require a connection to a computer or any additional software for their operations.

Advanced access control

In addition to electronic locks and identification means, more demanding access control systems require a more complex hardware. In this case, readers for identification means are installed in their own housing and separated from the advanced access controllers, which are installed on the secure side of  a passage.
Access control hardware in more demanding systems is connected to the server where the access control software is running.

Advanced access controllers

Advanced access controllers

Our advanced access controllers intergrate control electronics for locking and unlocking electric locks, power supply for powering locks and readers, as well as support for battery charging. In some cases, a TCP/IP communication converter is also integrated.
One or more readers are connected to an individual access controller (1, 2 or 4 readers). An arbitrary number of controllers can be successively connected to each other into a communication line, at the end of which is a communication converter, via which the entire controller line is connected to the computer.

Operating principle of the access control system

The operating principle of the access control system is simple:

1. Registration on the reader

All users who wish to enter at a certain access point have to prove that they have the authorisation for entering at that entry point. This is achieved by presenting their personal identification means to the reader by the entrance.

Identification means assigned to users can vary: contactless cards or key tags, numerical codes, remote controls, fingerprints, etc.

2. The controller’s response – the opening of doors

The reader reads the ID means and sends the read information to the access controller. The access controller compares the provided information with the list of all users and rights and based on that approves or refuses entry to the user.

The reader usually also gives the user feedback on the approval or rejection of the request (e.g. sound signal or change in the colour of the signalling light on the reader).

3. Connection to the server

The access controller records all events in its diary, which it then transfers to the server where the Codeks AC access control software, which manages the entire system, is located.

Codeks AC forms the brains of the system and determines the rights and limitations for individuals or groups of users and then sends the lists of users and their rights to controllers.

Time attendance

To optimise working hours, decrease labour costs and, last but not least, ensure a fair workload of the employees, an increasing number of companies are implementing time & attendance systems. With a time attendance record, a company can achieve major savings and at the same time simplify its human resource management.

1. Registration on the controller

Employees register each event (arrival at work, lunch break, departure from work, etc.) on the time & attendance controller. This is achieved by presenting their personal identification means to the controller by the entrance.

Registration on the controller

Identification means assigned to the employees can vary: contactless cards, key tags, wristbands, etc.

2. Event recording – transferring and server response

The controller transfers the recorded event to the server, where the software for time & attendance is running. The server saves and processes the event. The server response is then displayed on the screen of the time attendance controller, where the employee can immediately check its correctness.

Event recording

The controller usually transfers the recorded events to the server, but if the connection with the server is temporarily interrupted, the recorded data is stored in the internal memory of the controller and forwarded to the server when the connection is restored.

3. Server with time & attendance record software

The entire time and attendance system is managed by the Codeks TA software for time & attendance, which is running on a local server. All time & attendance controllers are connected to the server and forward events that are used for calculating time & attendance of the employees to the programme.

Server with software

The Codeks TA program manages the entire system and determines the employees’ working schedules and stores their data.

Operating principle of mobile time registration

1. Time registration using Codeks Mobility

Employees can record time registration events on their mobile device using the Codeks Mobility time registration application. To register their arrival or departure from work, employees simply click Register, which simulates presenting their card to a physical controller.

To record business or private exits during work hours, employees must first activate the appropriate T&A button before registering.

2. Recording the event and forwarding to the server

The Codeks Mobility application will record the event and forward it to the server where the time registration software is running. The server saves and processes the event and sends the response, which is displayed to the employee in a new pop-up window.

If the employee cannot connect to the server at the time of registration, the application will save the event as an unsynchronized event and send it to the server when it reconnects.

3. The Codeks software and the Codeks Virtual Card and Codeks Virtual Controller add-ons

The entire time registration system is managed by the Codeks TA time registration software running on the local server. However, only employees who have a Codeks Virtual Card assigned to them in the system can register time registration events via the Codeks Mobility mobile application.

To assign virtual cards to users, you must purchase the Codeks Virtual Card license code, which adds the appropriate number of virtual cards for employees to your system.

*** All newer Codeks systems whose main Codeks license was first activated AFTER October 1, 2021, WILL REQUIRE at least one Codeks Virtual Controller license to enable mobile T&A registration through the Codeks Mobility app. This license also enables the geographical restriction of the area around the point of the virtual controller, where employees are still
allowed to register their working hours via mobile app.

Codeks Virtual Controller

In newer systems, users will be able to register an T&A event only if they are located within the allowable distance from the point of the virtual controller.

The Codeks Mobility application has a wide range of uses. Using the NFC function of mobile devices, it is possible to register the work hours of employees at remote locations using the JANTAR NFC SPOT point via the Codeks Mobility mobile application. It is also possible to register several employees on one mobile device via the Codeks Mobility mobile application.

NFC tags

Using the NFC mobile technology, employees can register at remote locations by scaning the JANTAR NFC SPOT installed on site with their mobile device and the registering with the Codeks Mobility app.

Multiple employee registration

Another way of using the NFC technology is for registering the T&A of multiple employees on the same mobile device. Employees bring their (MIFARE) card closer to the phone of, for example, their construction site manager and thus register in the Codeks Mobility application.

What do you need to implement a time and attendance system?

What do you need?

The purpose of a time attendance record is to precisely record the employees’ arrival at work and departure from work, time spent at the lunch break, absence due to work-related or private reasons, late arrivals, early departures from work, times off in lieu, leaves, sick leaves, etc. In combination with good work organisation and a stimulative reward system, a time attendance record can lead to major savings for the company and at the same time improve human resource managementi. For implementing time & attendance, you require time & attendance controllers, identification means and time & attendance software. In more complex systems, additional readers can be added and connected to time & attendance controllers.

Time and attendance controllers

Time & attendance controllers are used for recording employees’ arrivals at work and departures from work. They also record the time spent at the lunch break, absences due to work-related or private reasons, late arrivals, early departures from work, times off in lieu, leaves, sick leaves, etc. Time & attendance is implemented in such a way that the employee holds their contactless card against the controller when arriving at work or departing from work at regular or irregular hours and the controller records/registers the event. The employee can immediately check the correctness of the recorded event on the display of the time & attendance controller.
