For the Synergis unit to communicate with
SALTO SALLIS locks, you must enroll them in Security Center, using the Synergis™ Appliance Portal.
Before you begin
Set up your SALTO SALLIS infrastructure (routers, nodes, and wireless locks) according
to the instructions found in the
SALLIS Installation & Maintenance
Guide.
First define the nodes and the doors using the SALLIS application, and
then update the routers and initialize the locks using the PPD (Portable Programmer
Device). As you do this, write down the following information:
- IP router
- IP address and port number.
- RS-485 router
- Synergis unit channel the router is
connected to (1, 2, 3, or 4).
- Lock
- Router, lock ID, and the door where it is installed.
Use descriptive door
names, for example First floor storage room. If you have already
created the door entities in Security Center, use the same names for
ease of reference.
What you should know
The steps and instructions tagged with
Hardening are optional, but will protect your system against
cyberattacks.
Procedure
-
Log on to the Synergis unit.
-
Click .
-
At the top of the Hardware column, click
Add ().
-
In the Add hardware dialog box, select
Salto as the Hardware type.
-
Identify the channel where the SALLIS router is connected, and then do one of the
following:
- Select the IP channel, and enter the IP address and port number used by the router.
- Select an RS-485 channel (A, B, C, or D). All interface modules connected to
the same RS-485 channel must be from the same manufacturer.
-
(Hardening) If you want encryption, select Enable
encryption, and enter the AES site key.
-
In the same dialog box, add all
interface modules connected to the same channel.
You can enroll the interface modules automatically or manually.
Tip: If
you know your lock IDs (physical addresses) and you only have a few to enroll, it
is faster to enroll them manually.
- To enroll automatically, click Scan.
The scan
feature finds and enrolls all interface modules from the same manufacturer that
are connected to the same channel.
If the controller does not find all
connected interface modules, make sure they all have a different physical
address.
- To enroll manually, enter the lock ID as the Physical
address, and click Add ().
NOTE: Valid lock IDs
are 1 - 16 for RS-485 routers, and 1 - 64 for PoE routers.
Repeat as
necessary to configure all wireless locks connected to the same
channel.
-
Click Save.
The hardware type, channel, and interface module you just added are listed on the
Hardware configuration page.
-
Test your interface
module connection and configuration from the I/O diagnostics
page.
After you finish
Associate your doors to the SALLIS locks in
Security Center.
