Maestro access control systems

Cansec's Maestro Access Control System goes above and beyond SmartLock Pro with the added capability of elevator control, auxiliary Input/Output control, multi-station software, and many other features. All versions of Maestro come standard with interactive floor plans and device icons, a built-in Macro developer and compiler, an optional time and attendance module, and optional support for many popular DVR systems.

Maestro utilizes Cansec's CP40 Two Door Controller with a distributed database architecture, ensuring continued operation in the event of communication failure. Because this system is modular and easily expandable, you can start off with Maestro Lite software with as little as one controller and expand the system as your needs grow without losing your original investment. Rest assured that Maestro software can be easily upgraded to any version without losing data should you choose to upgrade at a later date.
