NOTE:

The following three steps must be completed in order to utilize Fail Open functionality in Brivo Onair:

1.       Mode set to Fail Open (Energized)

2.       Correctly wired for Fail Open

3.       Fail Open style door lock must be used

Simply changing mode to Fail Open from a system that had been configured for Fail Secure operations is not sufficient to achieve Fail Open operation.

 

12.    Click Save Board. You are returned to the Control Panel detail page with the new I/O Board listed in alphabetical order.
