Reloading Gateway Data
EntraPass allows operators to reload data in order to refresh system parameters with new data from the system database. When should you reload a gateway?
• After major changes in the system database such as new cards, new devices, modification of component definition, definition of new schedules;
• When one or more controller (s) is malfunctioning (when it does not receive data for instance).
After a reload operation, the gateway reorganizes the data received and communicates the new data to all the sites and controllers.
Note: Communication with controllers is suspended during a reload operation.
