Documentation for ACFA PSIM 1.3.
The AIM reader is configured on the settings panel of the Apollo AIM Reader object created on the basis of the Apollo AIM object.
To configure the AIM interface module, do the following:
- From the Number drop-down list, select the reader address (1).
- From the Entrance to drop-down list, select the Region object corresponding to the area on the side of exit through this reader (2).
- From the Exit from drop-down list, select the Region object corresponding to the area on the side of entrance through this reader (3).
From the Access request mode drop-down list, select responsible part for decision of access: the Axxon PSIM Server (automatic decision based on user access level and its card) or Operator (4).
Note
For processing request by operator it's required to create the Event Manager interface object and configure it for the Operator request (Access granted) event. For detailed information about this object and its functionality see Guide for configuring and working with the Event Manager integration module.
- Configure operation modes of reader:
From the Initial drop-down list, select the mode of reader operation while connection establishing (5).
Operation mode Description Closed Access is closed for all Card only Access granted by access card PIN or card Access granted by access card or PIN code Card and PIN Access granted by access card and PIN code Opened Access is opened for all Facility code Access is granted by facility code - From the Independent drop-down list, select the mode of reader operation while losing of connection (6).
- Set the Use initial mode checkbox, if it's required to switch to initial mode after writing of configuration (7).
- Click the Modes by time zones button and configure changing of reader operation mode depending on time zone (8). Two operation modes are selected for each time zone: at the start of time zone and after end of time zone.
Note
The SDK ID (9) field is filled in automatically while object creating and it contains different values for objects of the same type. It's not recommended to create objects by template (see The Save function) for correct working of module because of equal SDK ID values.
Specify other parameters of reader.
