Enabling live synchronization of entities - OnGuard 5.1.0

For entities to be synchronized in real time between OnGuard and Security Center, you must enable live synchronization.

1. From the home page in Config Tool, open the Plugins task.
2. In the Plugins task, select the OnGuard plugin from the entity browser, and click the Synchronization tab.
3. In the Synchronization options section, move the Live updates slider to ON.
4. (Optional) To trigger a synchronization following a loss of connection between the OnGuard system in Security Center, in the Parameters section, move the Automatically synchronize when connection is restored slider to ON.
5. In the Entities to synchronize section, select which types of entities that you want to synchronize in real time.
   NOTE: Cardholder groups and partitions are not supported by the plugin.
6. Click Apply.
7. In the Synchronized entities section, click the refresh button () to view the number of entities from OnGuard that have been synchronized with Security Center.
8. Click the Proxy settings tab.
9. In the Advanced settings section, configure the following:

   Hardware refresh interval (in minutes)

   The interval determines the frequency at which Security Center synchronizes with the OnGuard system to obtain the status of properties on OnGuard panels and devices. This interval takes effect immediately after you enter a number in the field and click Apply. The minimum interval is one minute, however, given the impact that a refresh has on OpenAccess, the recommended minimum is 30 minutes. There is no maximum interval. If you enter 0 or -1, the interval is deactivated.
