ILS Intelligent Sensor
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.

Local Security Controller
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.
