Starting the EntraPass workstation

An EntraPass workstation is a computer where the EntraPass monitoring application is installed. Operators use the workstation to access and program the system database and components.

Ensure that the server is online when you start the EntraPass workstation software.

On start up, the workstation application attempts to communicate with the server. The display language depends on the settings of the operator who was previously logged on to the system. English is the software default language.

Note: Start the EntraPass server first. If you start an application before starting the server, you are prompted to register your application to the server even when the application has already been registered. If the application has been registered, just start the server.
  1. From the Start menu or by clicking the desktop icon, start the EntraPass workstation.
    Note: When the server is offline, the first status flag on the left (coloured rectangles of the status bar) turns red; the Login/Logout icon is disabled. If this happens, launch the server and the EntraPass workstation resumes its operation.
  2. Click the Login/logout icon.
  3. Enter your User name and Password. The default user name is kantech. It is not case sensitive. If you have not already done so, create a new password. For information about creating passwords, see Password rules.
    Note: If you cannot log on, check if the Caps Lock key on your keyboard is activated. When you log on successfully, the system menu, toolbar, and status bar are enabled.

    By default, operators are not allowed to log on to more than one EntraPass workstation at a time. If required, an operator can have concurrent logons. For more information, see Creating or editing an operator. An operator can log on to the EntraPass server and the EntraPass workstation at the same time.
