I've recently become hooked on the home automation / home security / etc. bug and am looking to put in place an access control system.
I have an ELK M1 currently for home security and I've picked up a Software House iStar Pro for access control.
I must not have read the manuals too well before purchasing, because it appears the iStar Pro requires a CCURE / server setup to operate. If that is the case, I really need to find another platform that could work standalone.
Anyone have thoughts? I'm going to run electric strikes to all doors, proximity readers, etc. Would like a unit that is flexible/programmable (schedules, guest) with an API that I could tie in my ELK or home automation system to.
