Configuring Napco Integration

Configuring Napco Integration The following instructions will guide you through the CardAccess Napco Integration with TCP/IP communication setup. Note: It is assumed that Napco Panel (including TCP/IP Communication Bit) has already been programmed using Quickloader or the Keypad. (Refer to p.25) 1. Open the System Settings - NAPCO Tab select Use Napco Panels, Enforce Napco Permission Settings. Click on Add Napco Server and type in UNC Name of the Workstation where Napco Integration Server will be running. After Saving and Closing the System Settings window the Napco Integration Server icon should display in the System Tray. 1

2. Open the Napco Panel Configuration window. Click New and select Napco panel Type (3200, 9600, 255). Enter the panel s information: a) Panel Name b) Enable checkbox c) Panel Security Code enter Napco panel Master Security Code (hard coded at the panel). If Code contains zero(s), replace them with A (Ex.: 907062 9A7A62). The Napco panel Download Security Code can be used instead of Master Security Code. (6 digit Download Security Code must be programmed through the Quickloader) d) Group select Napco Panel group (if programmed) e) Workstation select workstation running the Napco Integration server f) Connection Type select Net.Link for TCP/IP communication g) Network Address enter the Napco s panel (NL-Mod s) IP-Address h) Socket Number must be 10081 (default) i) PC Security Code enter the same code as programmed at NL-Mod device (through NL-Mod Config utility). This code consists of three numbers. Each number can be between 0 and 255. In our case 123 0 255 ( 0 0 0 - no code). 2

3. Open the Napco Area Configuration window. Click Edit and enter the Area information: a) Area name b) Configured checkbox c) Group (if programmed) d) Manual Control Privilege e) Use Relay Control select to use Napco Relay Board f) Use Access Control Panel to monitor Napco Arming through Access Panel g) Panel select Access panel to monitor Napco Arming h) Relay - select Access Relay to monitor Napco Arming i) Select Relay On event for Napco Armed condition and Relay Off for Disarm. 3

4. Open the Napco Zone Configuration window. Click Edit and enter Zone information: a) Zone Name b) Area c) Zone Configured checkbox d) Group 4

5. Open the Permissions Configuration window. Click New and enter the Permission information: a) Permission Name b) Group c) For each Napco Panel/Area select Allow Arm/ Allow Disarm checkbox. This Permission when assigned to the Badge will allow it to Arm and/or Disarm those Areas. 5

6. Open the Panels Configuration window: a) Select Napco Panel Link select Card Access panel whose reader(s) will be used to Arm and/or Disarm Napco Panel/Area(s). 6

7. Open the Readers Configuration window: a) Select Napco Alarm Panel Areas select the Napco Panel Area(s) that will be controlled by this reader. 7

8. Open the Personnel window: a) Napco Permissions select Napco Permission from the combo box. Note: In order for an Arm or Disarm command to be sent as a result of an "Arm Request" or "Disarm Request" event, the cardholder must have permission to arm or disarm all of the areas that the reader is monitoring. NL-Mod Setup 8

Note: Before attempting to program your NL-Mod it must be powered-up and connected to the Ethernet. a) Click Search button b) The Search Results window opens displaying your NL-Mod device. If you have multiple unsecured (not programmed) devices on the network they will also be on the list. Note: If Search Result window does not display your NL-Mod, you might have to do one or more of the following: 1.Try selecting different network card if there are multiple cards installed in the PC. 2. Another possibility is that NL-Mod already has static IP Address. You will then have to use Find Static IP NL-Mod button on the Search Result window. 3.There might be a Proxy Client or Firewall Client software. This software will need to be temporarily disabled. 4.Reset NL-Mode to factory defaults (Remove power, remove jumper JP2, power-up, upon continuous led flashing (about 1min. later) replace jumper. c) Using the MAC Address as reference, locate your NL-Mod device on the list. Double-click on your NL-Mod 9

d) The Temporary account with DHCP configured IP-Address (in our case 172.16.200.81) will display. The default PC Security Code is 0.0.0, which represents No Code. 10

e) De-select This unit uses DHCP checkbox. You will now be able to enter the Static IP Address (my unit is 172.16.200.244). Enter the Subnet Mask and Gateway for the unit. The Port number should be the default value 10081. f) Assign PC Security Code for NL-Mod. The PC Security Code is a three 3- digit numbers with value between 0-255. (My PC Security Code is 123 0 255) 11

g) Click on Automation/Access tab to configure the CardAccess parameters. Enter the IP-Address of the Workstation that is running Napco Integration Server. All options (checkboxes) on this tab must be selected for proper communication between NL-Mod and the Workstation. The Port number 5003 (default) must be selected. 12

e) Click on File Save As f) Type in the Account Name and click OK 13

h) Your NL-Mod Config account has been created and can be Downloaded to the NL-Mod. 14

i) Click on Download button, then click Yes j) The Download Confirmation box displayed, Click Yes 15

j) Look at the Status bar to confirm successful NL-Mod Download 16

Troubleshooting Matrix Perform the following test sequence to verify correct Napco Integration operation. Test Diagnostic Test Symptom Resolution # 1 Napco Integration Server running? No Napco Integration Icon in System Tray - Verify that the correct Workstation Name (p.20) is entered in the System Settings (p.1) - 2 Arm/Disarm Napco panel Area through the Keypad No Arming/Disarming - Possible problem with Napco Panel program. Verify program with the Quickloader. 3 Arm/Disarm Napco panel Area through the Keypad No Area Armed /Area Disarmed Events in CardAccess - - Verify Net Link settings. Open NL-Mod Config - Automation/Access tab.

Enabling TCP/IP Communication at Napco Panels In order for CA3000 (or Quickloader) to communicate through TCP/IP with Napco panels, TCP/IP bit must first be turned ON at the panel. This can be accomplished through Napco Keypad Programming. Follow the procedure below to turn on TCP/IP bit on Gem 3200,9600 and X255 panels. 1. At the Napco panel keypad enter the Master Security Code. (At our test panels this code is hard-coded to be 112233. In the real world this code is unique for each panel.) 2. Press MENU button, then BYPASS button twice. (The keypad display should say Activate Program ) 3. Press STAY (Next/Yes) button. (At this point you have entered into the Easy-Menu Programming Mode) 4. Press RESET button. (this activates keypad Address Programming Mode) 5. Enter address 2423 (you will see the content of this memory address, which should be blank (represented by eight dots)) 6. Press 3 (the third dot will change to 3 on the keypad s display) 7. Press ENTER button 8. Press RESET button 25
