1.       The Door Name and Control Panel fields cannot be edited on the Define Door page.

2.       Click a Door Board/Node combination from the Board and Node dropdown list. Only valid, available combinations are listed. If the door you are configuring is a Salto door, select the Salto Router from the Board and Node dropdown list. Additional instructions for configuring a Salto Door are found below.

3.       For ACS6000 and ACS300 panels only, select the Reader Interface, choosing between Wiegand and OSDP. The default setting is Wiegand.

4.       For ACS6000 and ACS300 panels only, if OSDP is selected, select the OSDP Device Address from the dropdown list.

NOTE: Reader Interface and OSDP Device Address selection require the control panel to have 5.2.6.2 firmware or later.

 

5.       For ACS6000 and ACS300 panels only, if using a Bluetooth reader, enter the Bluetooth reader serial number located on the sticker on the back of the reader into the Bluetooth Reader ID field. This is a sixteen-digit number (ignore any dashes and enter only the numbers).

NOTE: Bluetooth Reader functionality requires the control panel to have 5.2.7.2 firmware or later.

 

6.       In the Door Ajar Enabled field, click Yes or No to indicate if you want to enable the Door Ajar feature. This feature controls how long a door can be left propped or held open before it is considered a security risk, causing the event to be recorded in the Activity Log and an optional email notification to be sent. The default setting is Yes.

7.       If the Door Ajar feature is enabled, use the Door Ajar Threshold field to indicate the maximum length of time (30-600 seconds) the door can be left ajar without causing a security violation. The default setting is 120.

8.       In the Invalid PINs Threshold field, enter the maximum number of consecutive invalid PINS that can be entered in the door’s keypad (1-10) before it is considered a security risk and the keypad freezes. The default setting is 3.

9.       In the Invalid PINs Shutdown field, indicate the length of time (10-600 seconds) the keypad should remain frozen if the maximum number of invalid PINs is exceeded. The default setting is 120.

10.    In the Pass-through Period field, enter the maximum length of time (1-600 seconds) the door should remain unlocked after a user presents his or her credentials and is authenticated or presses a Request-to-Exit switch. For example, if this value is set to 15, the user has 15 seconds to pass through the door before it automatically re-locks. The default setting is 5.

11.    In the Debounce Period field, specify the amount of time (1-255 seconds) that the device will delay after a door closure is detected before triggering a door forced open message. The default setting is zero.

12.    In the Use Lock-on-Open field, click Yes or No to indicate that you want to enable the Lock-on-Open feature. In certain installation situations, it is desired that the lock re-enable upon detection of a door opening event.

13.    In the Lock-on-Open Delay field, specify the amount of time (in milliseconds) in the field provided if you want a delay before Lock-on-Open engages. The default setting is zero.

NOTE: Debounce and Lock-on-Open functionality require the control panel to have 5.0.24 firmware or later.

 

14.    In the Use Request-to-Exit field, click Yes or No to indicate if a Request-to-Exit (REX) motion sensor is in use for the door. With a REX switch, if the door is opened without a credential or a request to exit, the Activity Log records a Door Forced Open event and an optional email notification is sent. The default setting is No.

NOTE: A Request-to-Exit motion sensor (as opposed to a wall-mounted button) can fail to engage if a person exits too quickly. Likewise, if a person engages the motion sensor, then waits for the sensor to disengage, then pushes the door open, the “request” will not be processed. In either case, the system will log a Door Forced Open event.

 

15.    In the REX Unlock field, click Yes or No to indicate if the REX switch causes the door to unlock. The default is No.

16.    In the Max REX Extension field, specify the maximum length of time (0-60000 milliseconds) for the complete pass through period in the presence of continual REX triggers being received by the controller. If the REX trigger is stuck in an “active” state or is being triggered over and over, the total passthrough period will become the Maximum REX Extension plus the passthrough period. The default setting is zero.

17.    In the In/Out field, click In to track when a user enters through the door; click Out if you want to track when a user exits through the door; or click Neither if you don’t want to track either event. The default is Neither.

NOTE: If you want to track entries as well as exits at an individual door, you must define the door twice in Brivo Onair: once with an In/Out value of In, and a second time with an In/Out value of Out.

 

18.    In the Door Unlock Schedule field, click a schedule from the dropdown list if you want the door to remain unlocked for pre-specified periods of time.

19.    On the Two Factor Schedule dropdown list, click the schedule during which you want this door to require two credentials. During the selected time period, users with privileges at this door will need scan a security card and enter a PIN to gain access.

20.    In the Two Factor Interval field, enter the amount of time (3-60 seconds) the user will have to present both credentials. If the user takes more than the allotted time, access will be denied.

21.    In the Card Required Schedule field, click the schedule during which you want this door to require a card credential to be used.  During the selected time period, users with privileges at this door will need to scan a card credential to gain access.  Use of a PIN will not be sufficient.

22.    In the Use Alarm Shunt field, click Yes or No to indicate if the door is connected to an alarm system that should be shunted (temporarily disabled) for a specified period of time after the Pass-through Period has expired. The shunt time is in addition to the Pass-through Period. For example, if the Pass-through Period is 10 seconds, and the Alarm Shunt duration is 3 seconds, the alarm will engage only if the door remains in an open state for more than 13 seconds after the user was authenticated. The default setting is Yes.

23.    In the Alarm Shunt Duration field, enter the length of time (1-240 seconds) the alarm system should be shunted. The default and recommended setting is 1. If the alarm shunt is in use by a device, a message displays indicating that there is no alarm shunt available for this door node.

NOTE: The Alarm Shunt feature applies to Request-to-Exit events as well as authorized entries.

 

WARNING: Alarm Shunt Restrictions If any device is connected to the AUX RELAY 1 terminal block on the Door Board, the Alarm Shunt feature cannot be enabled.

 

24.    In the Control from Browser field, click Yes or No to indicate if you want to enable the Control from Browser feature to allow Unlock Door to function.

NOTE: The control panel firmware must be version 5.0.12 or later for the Unlock Door feature to function.  If the control panel has firmware version 5.0.11 or earlier, the Unlock Door feature is not available.

 

25.    Click Save Door. The Door detail page displays.

NOTE: If the In/Out value is set to In when a door is created or edited, the value appears as Ingress on the Door detail page; if it is set to Out, it appears as Egress on the Door detail page; and if it is set to Neither, this field does not display at all on the Door detail page.
