1. Enter a name for the input.
2. Select Closed or Opened for the normal condition.
3. Select a Monitoring Schedule from the drop-down list. This is the schedule during which the system will supervise the condition of the input. When the schedule is valid, a change in input condition generates either an “Input in alarm” or “Input restore” event.
4. Select the Suspend status update when not monitored checkbox to unlock the door automatically when a first access card is granted. Default is unchecked.
Note: Available for the KT-400 only.
5. Select a Map from the drop-down list.
6. Select a Video view from the drop-down list.
Note: The video view will only be activated if the video feature is enabled in EntraPass.
7. From the Loop Response Time options group, enter the Alarm Response Time (mm:ss.cc). This is the delay before the system generates the input and alarm event.
8. Enter the Restore Response Time (mm:ss.cc). This is the delay before the system generates the input restore events.
Note: The Input response time corresponds to a period within which an input must remain in the same state before a transition is recognized. This delay is expressed in minutes (mm:ss:cc). Values range from 10 sec to 10 min:55 sec:35 cc for both the alarm response and alarm restore times. Specifying the input response time allows bouncing time when the contact changes state, and helps to generate only one event for each transition if this time is longer than the bouncing time. For example, a 01:00:00 delay requires that a condition remains stable for at least one minute before it is reported.
9. Select between Alarm and Activation for Event Message. When configuring event parameters with Input in alarm or Input activated as the selected event, only the inputs corresponding to these criteria are displayed.
10. In Activate Relay, select the relay that will be triggered when this input is enabled from the drop-down list.
11. Selecting Activate Relay Temporarily will activate the relay according to the temporary activation parameters defined in the Edit Relay window. Default is unchecked.
12. From the Shunt Input drop-down list, select the input that will not be monitored when the input being defined is enabled.
13. Select the Shunt Input Temporarily and Reset Delay For Shunt Temporarily checkboxes. Default is unchecked for both.
14. In the Temporary Shunt Timer (h:mm:ss) field, specify the period during which an input is not monitored. Setting the timer to 0:00:00 will instruct the relay to follow the input state. The maximum value for the Shunt delay (hh:mm:ss) is 18:12:15 when you are using the KT‐400 or the KTES. Default is 0s.
Note: For the system to process properly the reset delay on a temporary shunt, the Temporary Shunt Timer option must be set in the definition of the input that will reset the delay.
