Because the Synergis unit does not communicate
with the SimonsVoss SmartIntego devices, you must enroll these devices through a Mercury EP or
LP (or Honeywell) controller, using the 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 be assigned a unique channel ID. The controller
communicates with the SmartIntego Gateway nodes through IP. IP addresses cannot overlap
within the same network.
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.
-
At the bottom of the Interfaces group, click Add an
item () to add the
SmartIntego Gateway node that you want the controller to talk to.
-
In the dialog box that opens, click Model and select
SimonsVoss Gateway node.
-
In IP address, enter the IP address of the Gateway
node.
-
In Router, enter the decimal value of the Gateway node
ID.
For example, if the Gateway node ID is
0x0021
, enter
33
(= 2 x 16 + 1).
-
At the bottom of the Interfaces group, click Add an
item () to add the
locks paired to the Gateway node.
-
In the dialog box that opens, click Model and select the
lock model (Smart Handle, Padlock, Cylinder, and so on).
-
In Door Lock Number, enter the decimal value of the lock
ID.
For example, if the lock ID is
0x0026
, enter
38
(= 2 x 16 + 6).
-
Click OK.
-
Repeat if you have more locks to add.
-
Click OK.
-
Click .
The Mercury controller with all its connected downstream panels and peripheral
devices are listed on the
Peripherals page.
NOTE: 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.
-
Test your configuration by triggering the outputs.
The triggered output changes state in real time on screen.
NOTE: Reader
activities are not shown on the Peripherals
page.
