Managing the HID configuration

The HID configuration is managed on the settings panel of the VertX / Edge ACS object as follows:

To get the configuration from all the connected controllers, click the Get current configuration button (1).

After clicking this button, the Attention! dialog box will open with a warning about deleting the current HID object tree. Click Yes to confirm the request to get the configuration.

As a result, the object tree with all connected controllers and HID devices will be automatically created.
Attention!
Once you get the current configuration, it is no longer necessary to create the objects corresponding to the connected controllers and HID devices.
To write the configuration to all the controllers, click the Write configuration to controllers button (2).
To write the Access manager data to all the controllers, click the Write access settings to controllers button (3).
Attention!
It is highly recommended to regularly write the complete Access manager data to all the controllers to avoid controller errors in case of vendor constraints violations.
Note
The following constraints are placed:
It is possible to dynamically create only 10000 users if in the database there is less than 10000 users. Otherwise, it is possible to create only 100 users.
To change the access type (card+pin, only card, only pin, card or pin) it is needed to update the database.
It is impossible to delete user. As deletion emulation specify January, 1, 1990 as card validity end date. In such case the “Card date expired” message will display.
It is impossible to change the card number.
Attention!
It is impossible to delete user and then create the new user with other card number. In such case the user id will be identical and record of other card number with the same user id is impossible.
To synchronize the Server's time with the time of all the controllers, click the Write current time button (4).
To get the configuration from selected controllers, click the Get configuration from... button (5).
Attention!
To get the configuration from the selected controllers, it is necessary to first create the controller objects corresponding to the connected equipment (VertX V1000, VertX V2000 NC / RI, EdgeReader E400), based on the VertX / Edge ACS object on the Hardware tab of the Settings dialog box. Then, on the settings panel of the created objects, enter the MAC address of the controllers (see Configuring the controller MAC address).
After you click the Get configuration from... button, the Select controllers window will open. In this window, set the checkboxes of the selected controllers (1), and click the Apply button (2).
After you click the Apply button, the Attention! dialog box will open with a warning about deleting the current object tree of the selected controllers. Click Yes to confirm the request to get the configuration.
As a result, the object tree corresponding to the selected HID controllers configuration will be created.
Attention!
Once you get the configuration of the selected controllers, it is no longer necessary to create the objects corresponding to the HID devices.
To write the configuration to the selected controllers, click Write configuration to... (6), select the checkboxes of the required controllers (1), and click the Apply button (2).
To write the Access manager data to the selected controllers, click Write access settings to... (7), select the checkboxes of the required controllers (1), and click the Apply button (2).
To synchronize the Server's time with the time of selected controllers, click the Write current time to... button (8), select the checkboxes of the required controllers (1) and click the Apply button (2).
