Creating I/O zones - Security Center 5.11

To have the inputs on one Synergis™ unit trigger output relays on other Synergis units (even when some, or none of them are connected to the Access Manager), you must create an I/O zone in Security Center.

1. Open the Area view task.
2. Click Add an entity () > Zone.
3. In the zone creation wizard, enter a name and description for the zone.
4. Select the area this zone is part of in Location, and click Next.
5. On the Zone information page, click I/O zone.
6. From the dialog box, select the Synergis unit that will play the role of master unit among its peers, and click OK.
   The master unit is the Synergis unit that you select to do I/O linking. Once your choice is made, it cannot be changed after the I/O zone is created.
7. Click Create > Close.
