Doors Configuration |
This menu is used to define the door parameters on which readers and/or keypads are installed. A door can be an elevator door, a In/Out door, an entry door for anti-passback, an exit door for anti-passback or an access door. It depends on how the settings are programmed. The controlled door may be secured at all times or only during defined schedules. The common locking devices used are electric door strikes and electromagnetic locks. A door may be equipped with one or two readers; one reader on each side. For doors equipped with two readers, the outer reader has to be defined as an entry reader and the inner reader as an exit reader.
NOTE: For a single gateway, limits are 2048 connections, 10,000 doors, 100,000 inputs and 100,000 outputs.
When you are using the KT-300 system, you are working with h:mm:ss and the range value can be from 00:00:01 to 9:06:07. Each time you are using a KT-400 system, you are working with hh:mm:ss and the range value can be from 00:00:01 to 04:15 (255 sec.) for a KT-100, KT-200 and KT-300; or to 18:12:15 (65535 seconds) for a KT-400 . So, please take this difference into consideration.
1 - In the Devices toolbar, select the Door button.
The
Local
areas
options
are only available for a KT-400 controller
The Miscellaneous , In/Out , and Door Anti-Passback options are not available for a KTES door.
2 - Select a Site filter from the first drop-down list.
3 - select the Gateway.
4 - From the Connection drop-down list, select the connection where the controller is located.
5 - From the Controller drop-down list, select the controller you want to define. Once selected, the language section is enabled. You may rename the selected controller.
6 - From the Door drop-down list, select the door you want to modify or define. New items are identified with a red button. The button turns green once the item has been defined and saved.
7 - From the General tab, specify the Door lock mode : Depending on the lock device used, the locked state will energized or de-energized to lock. Default value is Fail-secure .
• Fail-secure : The strike is locked when power is removed (door locks, door strikes).
• Fail-safe : The lock output is energized to lock the door (electromagnetic locks).
8 - If the door is for a KTES then go to Step 13 .
9 - Check the Elevator cab option if the door is to be used for elevator control. When this option is checked, the Elevator tab is displayed to define the unlocking schedules. Default value is unchecked.
10 - Specify the In/Out type from the drop-down list (default is None) :
• None : The reader is considered as an access reader. An access reader generates only “Access granted/Access denied” events.
• Entry : An entry door is an entry point. In order for the system to record an entry, the door must be opened after a valid access (if a door contact is installed).
• Exit : An exit door is an exit point. In order for the system to record an exit, the door must be opened after a valid access (if a door contact is installed).
11 - If the Controller Local Areas are enabled then go to Step 11 .
12 - Specify the Door Anti-Passback type (default is Access) :
• Access : The reader is considered as an access reader. Anti-Passback options are not used with access doors. An access reader generates only “Access granted/Access denied” events.
• Entry : An entry door is an entry point. In order for the system to record an entry, the door must be opened after a valid access (if a door contact is installed).
• Exit : An exit door is an exit point. In order for the system to record an exit, the door must be opened after a valid access (if a door contact is installed).
13 - Go to Step 13 .
None , Soft anti-passback and Hard anti-passback are used only with the KT-400 and Controller Local Areas.
14 - Specify the Door Anti-Passback type (default is Access):
• None : The anti-passback option is disabled.
• Soft anti-passback : If the destination area is under Deny Access on Local Area Full, access is denied. When a user is passing his access card to a local area, for example, the system will allow him to access another local area even if the user was not in the Local area before . The system will generate the event: “ Access granted - Passback bad location “.
• Hard anti-passback : If the destination area is under Deny Access on Local Area Full, access is denied. A card used at an entry reader will not be able to access the same entry reader again until it has used the corresponding exit reader. The system will generate the event: “ Access denied - Passback bad location “.
15 - Specify the Local area before and Local area after . These items are enabled and can be specified only for Controller Local Area .
16 - Specify the Door access delay:
• Unlock time (hh:mm:ss): The time during which the door is unlocked on a valid card read or a valid request to exit event (when the REX is defined to unlock the door). The time range value can be from 00:00:01 to 04:15 (255 sec.) for a KT-100, KT-200 and KT-300; or to 18:12:15 (65535 seconds) for a KT-400. If this is an elevator door and a push button (input) is used to enable floor selection, this is the time during which a floor selection will be allowed. Usually, a longer period should be defined to allow the user to select floors. Default value is 10s. For more information, see Input Configuration.
• Open time (hh:mm:ss) : The time during which a door can remain opened following a permitted access or a valid request to exit request. This applies only to a door defined with a door contact input. The time range value can be from 00:00:01 to 04:15 (255 sec.) for a KT-100, KT-200 and KT-300; or to 18:12:15 (65535 seconds) for a KT-400. After this delay has expired, the system will generate the event “door open too long” and the door piezo will sound to warn the cardholder. You can use the Pre-alarm on door open too long ( Door window, Contact tab) to sound the door piezo when half of this delay has expired. It will continue to sound until the door is closed. Default value is 30s.
17 - The Extended door access delay (hh:mm:ss) feature allows to keep the door open for an extended period in order to allow people with disabilities to pass through without triggering an alarm. If you want to use this option, specify the delays in the Unlock time (default is 40s) and Open time (default is 2 min) fields. The time range value, for both delays, can be from 00:00:01 to 04:15 (255 sec.) for a KT-100, KT-200 and KT-300; or to 18:12:15 (65535 seconds) for a KT-400.
18 - Unlock Schedule will allow the system to unlock the door for a predetermine period of time that you will select.
19 - First PersonIn option (Not for KT-200): keeps door locked until the first granted card access while an unlock schedule is valid. Default is unselected.
• For KT-400 and KT-1 only, it’s now possible to specify an Unlock Grace Period (mm). This feature allows the door to be unlocked under its unlock schedule if the first card access is granted inside the selected time period before the unlock schedule starts. Time range value can be from 0 (disabled) to 59 minutes. Default value is 0 minute. For example, if the door has an unlock schedule that goes from 8:00am to 5:00pm and the First Person In is enabled with an Unlock Grace Period of 15 minutes, a valid access between 7:45am and 7:59am will allow the door to unlock automatically at 8:00am.
20 - Select Enable Multi-Swipe to turn the visibility of the Multi-Swipe tab ON or OFF.
21 - Select a Graphic and Video view to which the gateway is assigned, if applicable. The video view will only be activated if the video feature is enabled in EntraPass.
Under
a Corporate Gateway,
Doors can be defined with relay activation when the * or # keys are pressed on the keypad. This option is only available for KT-100 (with firmware version 1.04 and higher) and KT-300 (with firmware version 1.16 and higher) controllers.
Doors can be defined with relay or relay group activation by pressing any specified key on the keypad.
The Keypad tab is enabled only if you have selected a Keypad type while defining the controller associated with the door being defined. There are 4 keys. The first 2 keys: # and * are fixed keys and they are similar and play the same role as in the KT-300 system. The 2 other keys: Key 3 and key 4 are variable according to the client’s needs.
1 - From the Door window, select the Keypad tab.
2 - Specify how access to the door is controlled (default is Reader only ):
• Reader only : Select this option if access is granted using a reader. A reader only installation is the most common application.
• Reader or keypad : Select this option if access is granted using a reader or a keypad only. A keypad only installation is generally considered less secure than a reader only installation, because a user may “lend” its PIN to another person but cannot prevent further use (in comparison to getting a card back).
This option can be enabled on a reader with an integrated keypad if you want, for instance, to use the keypad only.
• Reader and keypad : Select this option if both a reader and a keypad are used to permit access to this door. The keypad will only be used when the “keypad schedule” is valid. Adding a keypad to a reader significantly increases the level of security. PIN code requirement can be limited by a schedule for use only outside business hours, for example, rather than during high traffic hours.
3 - From the Card and PIN schedule menu, select a schedule during which cardholders will have to enter their PIN after a valid card read. The time allowed between a valid card read and entering the PIN at the keypad is set in the Gateway definition menu ( Time-out on keypad option).
4 - Check the Enable duress function on keypad option, if desired. The default value is unchecked.
5 - Select the Keypad relay activation key(s):
• For KT-100 and KT-300 Controllers : For doors defined with keypad or reader and keypad, you can program the star key (*) or pound key (#) to activate a relay. When this feature is enabled, users can activate a relay simply by pressing the appropriate key.
• For KT-400 Controllers : For doors defined with keypad or reader and keypad, you can program *, # or any key to activate a relay or a relay group. When this feature is enabled, users can activate a relay or a relay group simply by pressing the appropriate key.
In most applications, the low cost door contact is the only supervisory element that protects the investment made to control access to the door. The door lock and card reader (or keypad) provide security and prevent unauthorized entry only when the door is closed and locked. A simple door contact allows the ability to monitor several door conditions such as: door forced open, door open too long, interlock options (mantrap), etc.
1 - In the Door window, select the Contact tab.
2 - Select the door contact from the Door contact list.
3 - In Shunt Door Schedule, select a schedule.
A door contact cannot be assigned to more than 2 readers.
This feature allows associating a schedule to a door contact in order to bypass the events / alarms related to the door contact supervision. If no schedule is selected, the system will continue to work as usual. If a valid schedule is selected, the system will hide following conditions in the events monitoring desktop:
• Door Forced open
• Door forced open restored
• Door open too long (unless otherwise indicated)
• Pre-Alarm door open too long
• Door left open
4 - Check Enable door open too long notification to continue to receive the Door open too long event and the Pre-Alarm door open too long in the desktop. If there is no schedule selected, this checkbox is not available for selection (greyed out).
For KT-200 Controllers, Input 1 (door contact) and 2 (request to exit device) are ideally reserved for Door 1 of the controller whereas Input 9 (door contact) and 10 (request to exit device) are ideally reserved for Door 2 of the same controller. The input that is used for the door contact or REX contact SHOULD NOT have a “monitoring” schedule defined in the “Input Definition” menu.
5 - Check the door reading options:
• Door open reading : If selected, this option allows the system to read cards while the door is open. However the system will not unlock the door if it was locked. If selected, the event “Access granted” is generated. Otherwise, the event “Access granted - Door open” is generated. Default is checked.
• Door unlocked reading : If selected, this option allows the system to read cards while the door is unlocked manually by the operator or by a valid unlock schedule. If selected, the event “Access granted - Door unlocked” will be generated on access. To ignore all access events while the door is unlocked, leave this option deselected. Default is checked.
• Unlock on access door opened: If selected, this option allows the system to unlock access on door opened at any time. Default is unchecked.
• Pre-alarm door opened too long : If selected, this option allows the system to generate the event “pre-alarm door open too long” and sound the door piezo when half of the delay defined in the Open time field is expired. It will continue to sound until the door is closed. Default is unchecked.
If the door is a KT-400 and if the value entered is higher or equal than the open time and if the checkbox is selected, a pop up will appear explaining that the delay value is incorrect. Value range can be between 00:00:01 and 18:12:15 and must be lower than the door open time.
6 - Select the appropriate Relock on access option. You may choose to relock an access On door opening or On door closing. Default value is On door opening.
A signal from the REX indicates that someone wants to exit through a controlled door. Devices such as motion detectors, push buttons can provide the REX signal. EntraPass enables users to configure doors with unlock time reset each time the primary or secondary REX is triggered. This option is only available for KT-100 (with firmware version 1.04) and KT-300 (with firmware version 1.16) controllers.
1 - From the door window, select the REX tab, then check the appropriate Relock on Rex options (default is On door closing ):
• On door opening , if you want the door device to re-lock following a valid access.
• On door closing , if you want the door device to re-lock when it closes.
2 - For the Primary and Secondary REX options (the Secondary REX options does not apply to KTES) , make the appropriate choices:
• Assign the REX contact : The input to which a “request to exit” detector can be connected. This input must be local; it has to be one of the inputs on the controller operating the door.
• Select a Rex schedule: When this schedule becomes valid, the controller will detect request to exit signals originating for the exit contact. This option applies only to a door defined with a REX contact.
• Select a Rex Bypass Message schedule: When this schedule becomes valid, the event will NOT be stored in archives . When invalid, event is sent to the gateway for archives. On EntraPass updates, all existing REX will have the ‘Bypass REX message schedule’ set to NONE or to no schedule. On a new door definition, Bypass REX message schedule is set to always valid by default.
The primary and secondary Rex Bypass message schedule options will be available upon activation in System parameters. Please refer to System Parameters/Schedule for additional information.
• Unlock on REX: The door will be unlocked if a valid request to exit is permitted by the controller. This option may be useful on exit doors such as interior doors, shipping doors or other push doors through which people carrying packages may pass. The system will permit the exit and generates the “request to exit granted” event rather than “door forced open” event.
• Resettable REX function : The unlock time is restarted on a valid request to exit. Open and unlock times are defined in the door definition ( Devices > Door > General ). Select this option for high traffic area doors such as manufacturing doors where many users may need to exit at short intervals (for example after a work shift) to prevent unwanted door open too long or door forced open events.
It is recommended to choose either Unlock on REX or Resettable Rex function , not the two options at the same time. If you choose these two options, the door may remain unlocked for long periods of time. Moreover, these features should not be used if a door contact has not been defined.
This feature allows using double and triple card swipe actions with the new KT-400 firmware (KT-400: 1.08; KT-400 V1: 1.11).
1 - Select the General tab.
2 - Enable Multi-swipe: Check to enable the multi-swipe function. The Multi-Swipe tab will appear. Deselecting will disable the multi-swipe function but keep the parameters entered previously for future use. Deselecting the box will make the Multi-Swipe tab disappear.
3 - Select the Multi-swipe tab.
4 - Schedule : The schedule applies to both the double swipe and triple swipe actions and will need to be valid when the person swipes the card a second time or a third time for the corresponding action to occur.
5 - Delay : There is a maximum delay of 3 seconds between two card swipes to be considered by EntraPass as a double or triple swipe. A beeping sound will be heard two times for the double swipe and three times for the triple swipe. A long beep indicates a denied entry.
6 - Relay : Select a relay to be triggered.
7 - Relock on access on double/triple swipe : Relock on access on double swipe or triple swipe checkbox controls are used to lock the door before executing the double or triple swipe action.
By default the system sets the unlock time for the door to 10 seconds and the open time to 30 seconds. If the door is kept open for more the 15 seconds after a valid swipe, a pre alarm door open too long (see the Contact tab) will be triggered and the buzzer on the reader will start to beep.
The pre alarm door open too long delay will override the default setting for the Open time. For example, an unlock time of 10 seconds and an open time of 2:00 minutes. If the pre alarm door open too long option is selected with a time delay of 00:00:20, 20 seconds before the end of the open time, the system will trigger a pre alarm door open too long alarm and the buzzer will start to beep on the reader.
This feature is only available on KT-400 with firmware higher then 1.08.
• Activate relay : A relay or relay group can be selected.
• Deactivate relay : A relay or relay group can be selected.
• Lock door : Relock on access on double/triple swipe will be automatically checked and disabled
• Request to arm granted - Alarm interface : Equivalent to an arm door manual operation including panel partitions arming functionality.
• Temporarily activate relay : A relay or relay group can be selected. A delay can be entered. (between 00:00:01 and 18:12:15).
• Temporarily unlock door : Relock on access on double/triple swipe will be automatically checked and disabled. A delay can be entered (between 00:00:01 and 18:12:15).
• Toggle door lock: Relock on access on double/triple swipe will be automatically checked and disabled.
• Toggle relay : A relay or relay group can be selected.
• Unlock door : Relock on access on double/triple swipe will be automatically checked and disabled.
You may define interlock options (mantrap) between two doors to synchronize the time when these two doors are open/closed. The interlock options are also called the mantrap. This ensures that once the cardholder has accessed the first door, that door is closed and locked before the cardholder is granted access to the second door. The two doors have to be controlled by the same controller.
The Interlock options do not apply to a KTES door.
1 - In the Door window, select the Miscellaneous tab.
2 - From the Door drop-down list, select the first door for which you want to define interlock options (mantrap).
3 - From theInterlock contactlist, select the first input for the interlock options (mantrap). The selected input has to be the door contact of the second door .
4 - Return to the Door drop-down list to select the second door for which the interlock options (mantrap) are being defined; then select the interlock contact for this second door. It has to be the door contact of the first door.
5 - Select theInterlock schedule : The two doors must have the same interlock schedule. This is the schedule according to which the interlock is checked by the controller before access is granted to users.
The interlock options (mantrap) are not available on doors controlled by a KT-100.
6 - The Suspend report delay on door relock (hh:mm:ss) indicates the time during which the selected inputs will not be monitored when the door unlocks. It is not possible to shunt a door contact since the system will automatically shunt it. Values range from 00:00:01 to 18:12:15. Default is 15 secs.
7 - In the Shunt inputs scrolling pane, select inputs that will not be monitored when the door unlocks. Selected inputs or input group will remain unmonitored for the delay defined in the Shunt delay field.
The Shunt input items vary depending on the KT-300 or KT-400 system used.
During a door definition, it is possible to specify whether it is a “regular door” or an Elevator cab (Door window, General tab). When a door is defined as an Elevator cab, an Elevator tab is displayed in the Door definition window. This tab is used to define the automatic unlock schedules for specific floor groups.
1 - From the Door definition window, select the Elevator tab.
2 - From theUnlock schedule #1 list , select the applicable unlock schedule. By default, you may select the Always valid schedule. You may also create a new schedule ( Definition menu, Schedules ).
3 - From the Floor group #1 list, select the appropriate floor group associated with the Unlock schedule #1 . Only floors that have a valid schedule in the Floor group definition will be unlocked or available for selection when the Unlock schedule #1becomes valid.
4 - From the Unlock schedule #2 list, select the schedule applicable to the second group of floors.
5 - From the Floor group #2 list , select the appropriate floor group. Only floors that have a valid schedule in the Floor group definition will be “unlocked” or available for selection when the Unlock schedule #2 becomes valid.
• The Unlock scheduledefined during a door definition (Door menu, Generaltab) will OVERRIDE these schedules even if they are valid.
• Only one Unlock schedulecan be valid at a time. For example if the first schedule (Unlock schedule #1) is valid from 6h00 to 9h00 and the second schedule (Unlock Schedule #2) is valid from 7h00 to 9h00, then Unlock schedule #2 will NEVER be valid since Unlock schedule #1 is already valid.
• Do not overlap schedules. For example, if the first schedule is valid from 8h00 am to 17h00 and the second schedule is valid from 16h00 to 21h00, the gap (between 16h00 and 17h00) can result in erratic operation of the elevator control system.
• Only floors that have a valid schedule in the Floor Group definition will be “unlocked” or available for selection when the unlock schedules become valid.
For more information on how to program elevator control using REB-8 relays, see Controllers Configuration.
1 - In the Door window, select the Door events tab. This is to define the relays (or relay groups) that are to be activated on specified events. However, when you are using a controller other than KT-400, this tab is used to define relays only.
2 - Select the relay that will be activated locally for each event .
3 - Pager call type (applies to KTES only): You can select Do not call (the relay activation for that event will not be sent to the pager), Call immediately (the relay activation for that event will be sent immediately to the pager) or Call when scheduled (the relay activation for that event will be sent to the pager according to the pager call schedule). Default value is Do not call .
To specify pager call types for each events, the Pager reporting function must be enabled. See KTES Configuration.
Note...
4 - Once all door event features have been set, select the Access events tab to define relays (or relay groups if you are using KT-400) that are to be activated on miscellaneous events.
EntraPass offers you the ability to define a relay that will be activated if the Extended delay feature is used. The card used must be defined with this feature. Only KT-100, KT-300, KT-400 and KTES can be configured with the Extended door access delay feature.
5 - Select the relay that will be activated locally or the relay group (if you are using KT-400) for each event .
6 - Pager call type (applies to KTES only): You can select Do not call (the relay activation for that event will not be sent to the pager), Call immediately (the relay activation for that event will be sent immediately to the pager) or Call when scheduled (the relay activation for that event will be sent to the pager according to the pager call schedule). Default value is Do not call .
To specify pager call types for each events, the Pager reporting function must be enabled. See KTES Configuration.
The following tab only appears when KT-100, KT-300, KT-400 controllers and the KTES have been configured in a multi-site Gateway.
Select the Options and alarm system tab (or Options for a KTES).
• Supervised door lock device: This feature is used in specific applications such as bank vaults to compensate for the slow motor locks. Adding this delay avoids false door forced open alarms if a user is opening the door before it has been completely secured at the end of unlocking delay. Check this option if you want to enable it in EntraPass. Default is unchecked.
• Motor lock delay (does not apply to KTES) : Enter the time period (hh:mm:ss) after which the door will be considered locked. Values range from 0s to 18 h:12 min:15 secs. The default value is 0:00 for inactive. For example, if this delay is set to 5 seconds and unlocking delay is 20 seconds after access granted; the lock output will d deactivate after 15 seconds and no door forced open alarm will be generated if the door is opened during the last 5 seconds.
• If a second card read is required, select a schedule from the Second card schedule required (two-man rule) list (does not apply to KTES) .
• Relay to follow lock output (Only available for KT-400 and KTES): The relay follows the lock output status.
• Multi-factor authentication: available for go Pass cardholders presenting at a door with an ioSmart reader. To define multi-factor authentication for go Pass, select one of the following options.
○ None: multi-factor authentication is not enabled, present a card to the reader.
○ go Pass: present a card to the reader, or go Pass to the door.
○ go Pass + Disable card: present go Pass to the door only, disables the reader.
The option you select saves as a global setting and is the default setting when you create a new account and enable go Pass. You can change the setting as required.
The first type of authentication is an activation e-mail. The second type of authentication depends on the smartphone, use a PIN or biometric identification.
• Enable duress function on keypad (KTES only): Set this parameter to enable the duress function on the door controller keypad. Employees or tenants use the duress alarm to signal for help. The operator must enable the duress function. The duress function is unchecked by default. For more information, see KTES Configuration. For more information on the duress function for doors only, see Defining Door Keypad Options.
• On a valid card read and with the trigger of an arming input.
• On a valid arming code entered and with the trigger of an arming input.
There may be a combination of the options. For example, an alarm system will be disarmed with a correct access code during a valid predefined schedule and after a valid card read.
1 - Click the External alarm system options button located under the Options and Alarm System tab in the Door dialog. The Alarm system options dialog will display on screen.
2 - Under the Arming request tab, select the Arming request input . This is the input that is activated on an external alarm arming request.
3 - Once you have selected an arming request input, you have to Enable arming request schedule during which the request will be valid.
4 - If applicable, select an Arming access level .
• The Group option allows you to select all access levels.
• The Single option allows you to select a specific level.
• If the level you want does not appear in the list, you may right-click in the Arming access level field to create a specific level to arm the external alarm system.
5 - To increase the security of your alarm system:
• Wait for access granted to arm will force the user to present a valid card before pressing the selected Keypad button option.
• Relock door on request to arm will be used in conjunction with the Wait for access granted to arm to override the schedule.
• Relock door on arming after exit delay will relock the door and arm the system after the pre-configure exit delay is over.
• Prevent arming request on input status will prevent arming the system if an input is in alarm.
6 - Specify the Exit delay and Entry delay (hh:mm:ss) . The Entry delay is the time during which the alarm system is bypassed after an access granted event. The Exit delay is the period before which the system is armed. The maximum values are 18:12:15 for both the exit and entry delays. When the KT-300 system is used, the maximum values are 9:06:07. Usually the entry delay is shorter than the exit delay.
7 - Select the input that will indicate the External alarm system panel status . When the selected input status is “normal”, this indicates that the external alarm panel is armed.
8 - Select the Input tab to define input devices that will be supervised or shunted (no supervision) when the alarm system is armed. The input description column contains all the inputs that are defined in the system.
• Using the checkboxes, select the appropriate input where you want an external alarm system to supervise them. Also select the appropriate item for which you want to suspend supervision (on entry, on exit, or when the alarm system is disarmed).
9 - Select the Disarming request tab to select the Input to postpone arming .
10 - Select the applicable schedule from the Enable postpone arming schedule .
11 - You may check the Wait for access granted to postpone box. If this option is checked, the alarm system will be postponed only after a valid card read and the cardholder will then press the selected Keypad button to postpone the external alarm system.
12 - Select the Postpone or disarm access level from the list.
13 - Select the Relay tab to define a relay ( Partition and Relays for the KT-400 to define a group of relays) and input status for the external alarm relays.
When you select an Alarm relay, you may specify its Activation type. It may be activated permanently or temporarily.
Select the Access Level tab to manage the access level schedule for this door. This tab displays all the access levels where the door can be assigned.
• To create a new schedule, right-click on the Schedule section and select New.
• To edit existing schedules, right-click on the Schedule section and select Edit.
• To apply existing schedules to an access level, click on the drop-down list beside the schedule.
