Mapping door entities to physical door wiring - Security Center 5.12

For your door entity to be functional, you must match the hardware wiring you made to the door (reader connections, door locks, door sensors, REX’s, buzzers, and so on) in Security Center, so the Access Manager knows how to control the door.

1. From the Config Tool homepage, open the Area view task.
2. Select the door entity to configure, and click the Hardware tab.
3. From the Preferred unit list, select the access control unit that is connected to the door.
4. In the Door side (In) section, select the Reader, Request to exit, and Entry sensor from the drop-down lists, based on the door wiring.
5. To change the door reader settings, click Reader settings (), configure the following, and then click Save:

   PIN entry timeout

   Sets the time that you have to enter the PIN after the card has been read. By default, you have 5 seconds to enter all the PIN digits.

   Reader mode

   When the Unit default option is selected, the reader behaves in either Card only or Card or PIN mode, depending on the unit-wide parameters configured in the portal of the Synergis unit. For HID units, the reader behaves in Card only mode. When the Card and PIN option is selected, the reader behaves in Card and PIN mode when the selected Schedule is active. Outside of the selected schedule, the reader behaves as if you selected the Unit default option.

   NOTE: Make sure your settings match the capabilities of your reader. The system cannot validate the capabilities of your hardware. You can configure this type of reader on the unit's Peripherals page.
6. Repeat the steps for the Door side (Out) section.
7. In the Additional connections section, assign the inputs and outputs for the buzzer, door lock, lock sensor, and so on.
8. Click Apply.
9. Assign cameras that display each side of the door to the door entity.
