Network Configuration • Two ways to communicate with the access control network: • COM Port communication through a direct serial connection or through a modem • TCP/IP communication through a LAN-50, LAN-100, or LAN-500 module to an Ethernet network • Each requires different setup parameters • Use one method or the other, not both
COM Port – Selection • Select the COM Port the PC will use for either direct connection or a modem connection • Typically COM 1 for newer computers, COM 2 for older computers
COM Port – Modem Phone Numbers • Enter the PC modem phone number • Enter the access control network modem phone number
COM Port – Modem Init String • Enter a Modem Init Stringonly if you have unique conditions that require changes to the default Modem Init String
COM Port – Security PIN • For additional security, enter a PIN • The PIN prevents accidental overrides and hacking by preventing other software installations of Doors from accessing the site and the master controller

TCP/IP – Remote Site Port Number • Enter the Remote Site’s Ethernet Port Number • The default value is set to 3001, but may need to be changed to the value specified by the remote site’s Ethernet device • LAN-50 and LAN-500 = 10001 LAN-100 = 3001 (default) • LAN communication is explained in detail in its own presentation
