SimonsVoss SmartIntego lock integration requires a Mercury EP or LP (or Honeywell) controller. For this integration, the EP and LP controllers are viewed as interface modules, and the SmartIntego locks are viewed as non-intelligent devices. All SmartIntego locks are wireless.
The Mercury EP or LP (or Honeywell) controllers communicate directly with the Synergis™ unit.
Synergis™ Softwire 11.4.3 supports all SmartIntego models that work with Mercury IP controllers:| Model | Description | Minimum compatible versions |
|---|---|---|
| IP controllers | A Mercury
(or Honeywell)
controller must act as an interface module between the Synergis unit and the SmartIntego locks. The
following controllers are supported:

|
| Gateway node | Handles the communication between the Mercury IP controller and SmartIntego locks (Up to 16 locking devices per node through a 868 MHz wireless connection, with a range up to 30 meters.). |
|
| Programming dongle | Required to pair the locks to the Gateway node. |
|
| Smart Handle | Door handle/reader combo. Includes a manual REX out which cannot be monitored. May come with or without inputs. |
|
| Digital Locking Cylinder | Different wireless models; some of them have two readers, but only one reader is detected by the Mercury IP controller. May come with or without inputs. |
|
| Padlock | Padlock with no keyhole, only a card reader. |

Limitations
- Manual unlock and relock commands can take more time than expected to be executed. This is because these commands rely on a wireless communication that may take a few seconds to respond.
- Only MIFARE DESFire®, and MIFARE Plus card formats are supported.
