Because the Synergis unit does not communicate
with Allegion Schlage AD locks or PIM400 modules directly, you must enroll these devices through
a Mercury EP or LP (or Honeywell) controller, using Config
Tool.
What you should know
Mercury controllers enrolled on a
Synergis unit are not visible from the Synergis™ Appliance Portal
Hardware page.On the Synergis unit, each Mercury controller
must by assigned a unique channel ID. All Mercury controllers have RS-485 buses to which the
Schlage devices (AD-300 and PIM400) are connected. Each Schlage device connected to the same
RS-485 bus must have a unique RS-485 address.
Procedure
-
From the Config Tool home page, open the
Access control task.
-
Click Roles and units, and then click the Synergis unit.
-
Click Peripherals, and then click Add an
item ().
-
Enter the following information:
- Model
- Model of the controller.
- IP address
- Static IP address assigned to the controller by your IT department.
- Port
- Communication port (default=3001). The port must match the value configured on the
Mercury Device Manager web page.
- Channel
- Channel ID corresponding to this controller. The channel ID can be any value from
0 to 63, and must be unique within the Synergis unit. After it is assigned, it must not
be changed.
-
Add the Allegion Schlage devices that are connected to your EP or LP controller.
-
Under the Interfaces list, click Add an
item ().
-
In the dialog box that opens, select the Model (AD-300 or
PIM400), the Port, and the Address (0 -
31 ).
-
(PIM400 only) In Low, enter the first door number linked to
the PIM400, and in Count, enter the number of doors linked to
the PIM400.
All door numbers ranging from Low to
Low+Count must correspond to an AD-400
wireless lock.
-
Click OK.
-
Repeat as necessary.
-
(Optional) Click Advanced settings to change the advanced
settings.
The available settings depend on the selected controller model. You can typically
change the baud rate of the available serial port, the custom supervised input values, and
the power input event configuration.
NOTE: You can set up to four different custom presets on your Mercury controller's
inputs. For users upgrading from earlier Security Center versions who have a custom value
configured, that preset is listed as Custom 1 in the
AD limit rows list.
-
Click OK at the bottom of the dialog box.
-
Click Apply.
The Mercury controller with all its connected downstream panels and peripheral
devices are listed on the
Peripherals page.
Adding interface modules to the
Synergis
unit causes the unit to perform a software restart. During this process, the
Synergis unit and all peripherals attached to it are
displayed in red.
