1.0 Enable Global Unlock

Transcription

1 This document details how to enable the standard implementation of Global Unlock/Lock in Doors.NET for PXL controllers. The PXL-500/SB-593 master controller has dedicated Global Unlock and Global Lock features built into the controller using dedicated inputs. To use this feature, all PXL controllers must have firmware v or greater. Global Lock requires an SB-593 Satellite Board be installed on the master controller. When the corresponding input is activated, these features automatically either lock or unlock ALL of the online and functioning doors in the PXL system; it does not allow selected doors to be excluded from the lock or unlock command. Since these features are hardware controlled they are not dependent upon the PC to be activated. The Global Unlock/Lock functionality of PXL hardware can be extended using the Situation Manager within Doors.NET software. This provides you with greater control and flexibility in how the Global Unlock/Lock features are implemented. Refer to the DoorsNET_Situation_Manager_Global_Lock-Unlock_Application_Note.pdf (p/n: ) for instructions on how you can extend and enhance the Global Unlock/Lock features supported by the PXL hardware. NOTE: If a slave controller is offline when a Global Unlock or Global Lock command is issued, the slave controller has missed the unlock/lock command and will not change state when the slave controller comes back on line. 1.0 Enable Global Unlock The global unlock feature uses a dedicated input on the PXL master controller. When the global unlock input is triggered all online and functioning doors on the PXL network are automatically unlocked. 1. Highlight the master PXL controller in the hardware tree (Setup > Hardware Setup > All). 2. In properties, locate Options > Global Unlock Enable and set it to Yes. Page 1 of 7

2 3. Set Global Unlock Type to Unlock All Doors and click Save. NOTE: Setting the Global Unlock Type to Unlock All Doors configures the system to the standard implementation of Global Unlock/Lock. If this value is set to Use Individual Door Settings control is shifted to the Situation Manager in Doors.NET and the information in this document no longer applies. 4. The Live Events grid displays network update start and complete messages. 5. Expand the controller s inputs in the hardware tree. The input on the master controller dedicated to global unlock is automatically renamed as Global Unlock Input. Page 2 of 7

3 6. The dedicated Global Unlock input is a normally-open circuit that activates Global Unlock when it s closed. It is physically located between pins 5 and 6 of TB4 on the PXL controller. This input can alternately be designated as an Auxiliary RTE input, but this function is automatically disabled when global unlock is enabled. 7. Now if this input on the master controller is activated, all online PXL doors will unlock and appropriate messages are posted in Live Events. 8. In the doors status grid (Setup > Hardware Setup > Doors), the Detail column displays GUE Unlocked for each of the globally unlocked PXL doors. Page 3 of 7

4 9. When the PXL controllers are online, the mode and detail columns will dynamically change as the global unlock input state changes. NOTE: The Global Unlock feature is not fire marshall approved. Check your local codes for fire safety management. NOTE: Global Unlock takes precedence over ALL lock or unlock commands. Any attempt to restore an Auto Unlock/Lock time schedule while the Global Unlock feature is active will be ignored by the master controller. 2.0 Enable Global Lock The global lock feature uses a dedicated input on the satellite board installed on the master controller. This option will not appear if a satellite board is not installed. When the global lock input is triggered all online and functioning doors on the PXL network are automatically locked. The PXL supports five different levels of Lock implementation: Lock Immediately locks all PXL doors (doors which have been opened with a valid card, a time schedule, or that have been manually unlocked, will all lock). Lock allows credentials which have valid access to still gain access and RTE is still enabled. Lockout Operates the same as Lock but NO credentials are allowed access regardless of access level or group permissions. RTE is still enabled. Lockout - Allow Always Schedule The same as Lockout but allowing access to those credentials with the Always schedule assigned. RTE is still enabled. Lockdown Operates as Lockout with NO RTE functionality. Lockdown Allow Always Schedule The same as Lockdown but allowing access to those credentials with the Always schedule assigned. Page 4 of 7

From Global Lock Type select one of the available lock types from the drop-down list then click Save. 3. The Live Events grid displays network update start and complete messages. 4. Expand the controller s inputs in the hardware tree. The input on the master controller dedicated to global lock is automatically renamed as Global Lock Input. Page 5 of 7

6 5. The dedicated Global Lock input is a normally-open circuit that activates Global Lock when it s closed. It is physically located between pins 5 and 6 of TB8 (Input 4) on the Satellite Board connected to the master controller. 6. Now if this input on the satellite board is activated, all online PXL doors will lock and appropriate messages are posted in Live Events. 7. Live Events also posts appropriate Access Denied events, depending upon the Lock Type that the readers have been set. Page 6 of 7

7 8. When the PXL controllers are online, the mode and detail columns will dynamically change as the global lock input state changes. NOTE: The Global Lock feature is not fire marshall approved. Check your local codes for fire safety management. NOTE: Global Lock takes precedence over ALL other lock or unlock commands EXCEPT for Global Unlock. Any attempt to restore an auto Unlock/Lock time schedule while the Global Lock feature is active will be ignored by the master controller. 3.0 Contact Keri Systems Keri USA Keri UK, Ireland, Europe 2305 Bering Drive San Jose, CA End of document.
