New integrations

• Axis A1001 ACS. Event monitoring and door control (open/close) via ONVIF Profile C is supported. 
• Modbus general-purpose protocol. Modbus TSP and RTU standards are supported. The integration of this protocol allows connection of any device supporting these standards. Flexible configuration and integration flexibility expand the ability to connect any device to ACFA-Intellect software.
• Hikvision K1T605 series. Hikvision biometric controllers supporting access cards, fingerprints and user photos as identifiers (in any combination) are integrated. A photo assigned to the user in the Access Manager can be sent to the controller. Fingerprints are also assigned using the Access Manager module. Fixed bugs in the Hikvision integration module as a whole.
• Virdi, biometric ACS. The AC series terminals for fingerprints authentication and MCP 040 controller for cards authentication are integrated. The mode when АС terminals are connected to the MCP 040 controller is not supported.
• Alcoframe is a device determining the level of alcohol in exhaled air through spectral analysis. The integration module allows setting a threshold value at which an alarm is issued.
• El-Far, PIDS. Integration with EL-Far software: receiving alarms and displaying them on the Map accurate to the zone, sending commands to  controllers and sensors.
• Vanderbilt SPC FSA. Monitoring and control of the Vanderbilt SPC series.
• Synchronization with Face-Intellect service module. The module is designed to automatically synchronize photos of users in Access Manager with a database of reference faces in Face-Intellect software. A preliminary check of the photo has also been implemented: if the Face recognition server cannot process the photo or add it to the face database, the user receives a notification.
• Forteza MIR-B PIDS. The new model of dual technology bistatic sensor has been integrated. Fixed errors in the module.

New features and improvements

Service modules

• Access Manager:
  • The Cognitive Passport API by Cognitive Technologies is integrated to recognize the Russian Federation passports. The passport recognition module is activated when manufacturer’s USB dongle is installed allowing to fill-in user data from the scanned passport.
  • Bulk user editing.
  • Buttons for assigning and deleting photos with tips, buttons for adding and deleting users.
  • Setting the background color using the configuration file.
  • Display user location on the property bar.
  • Search for users who are in the region for a long time.
  • Display and assignment of regions for which the user is responsible.
  • Assigning permissions to time zones similar to access levels.
  • Fixed errors in the module.
• Event Manager.  The ability to change the background color of the Event Manager event protocol, as well as configure the highlighting of events of a given type has been added.
• Virtual Access Server. The two-factor authentication by card and face is implemented based on the Virtual Access Server without using scripts.
• Template Editor. The ability to add a 1D or 2D barcode to the template for further printing on the pass is supported. One or more selected database fields can be encrypted in the barcode.

General-purpose protocol integrations

• OPC Wrapper. The new Moxa MX-AOPC UA Server is supported (please note that the UA format by itself is not supported).
• BACnet Wrapper. Added the ability to skip events of certain types to reduce the system load. Fixed errors in the module. Accelerated reading device configuration.

Security equipment (Drivers Pack support module)

Grouping of object properties is supported to facilitate system configuration. Fixed errors in the module.

Integration modules

• HID ACFA system. The commands for recording access settings, time and configuration to the VertX controller have been added. Fixed errors when writing cards to controllers. The previously created but not connected controllers are not deleted from the equipment tree when searching for devices.
• Castle/Sigur ACS:
  • The reception and analysis of events from the Castle/Sigur manufacturer’s software has been improved, in particular, the data about users can de received if absent in the Intellect software database.
  • The monitoring mode is supported without transmitting user data or processing access requests.
  • The mechanism for dynamic user data and access parameters sending has been improved:
    • The basic state of the user in the Intellect software database is determined by the query to the MySQL database of the manufacturer’s software.
    • An option to synchronize user data by a request to the Intellect software server when there is no access to the manufacturer’s software database has been implemented.
• Suprema biometric ACS. Access cards can now be added to the database using Suprema XPASS reader.
• ZK Teco ACS. Several access cards per user has been supported, the logic for dynamically changing access parameters has been improved, the recording of user data to the controller has been accelerated. Fixed errors in the module.

Bug fixes

Minor bugs fixed in: Visitor Management System and Time & Attendance service modules, FoxSec ACFA integration module, Morpho and Suprema 2 biometric ACSs.
