The ILS Open Plus Exit Gate provides security at library exits and corrals by generating a 
radio field that gathers tag information from a distance up to 24 inches (61 cm). Two 
intelligent sensors form a secure aisle up to 48 inches (122 cm) wide for tag detection 
range. Additionally, the sensor communicates back to the Library Management System 
via the Intelligent Library Controller in real-time, determining whether an item has been 
checked out. If items in the interrogation field are not properly checked out, an alarm 
sounds and the book title appears on an exit alarm screen.

ILS Intelligent Sensors

The Local Security Controller (LSC) is a combination hardware and software solution for 
a single server, multi-branch ILS deployment. The LSC assists the Intelligent Library 
Controller in maintaining the response speed of Intelligent Sensors (exit gates), managing 
the connection between the Exit Interrogators at the branch and the remote Application 
Server to provide maximum caching performance. The LSC also enables the exit gates to 
operate (with limitations) if the main server is down. This scenario is normally used with 
libraries containing up to 20 branches.
