This guide provides step-by-step instructions for configuring network parameters in Single Site Mode for access control systems. Users can open the setup through the tool bar or pull-down menu to access network configuration options. This includes selecting between COM port or TCP/IP communication methods, entering modem phone numbers, and determining Ethernet port numbers. Security PIN options are also outlined for added protection. Ensure to save changes to avoid data loss when closing the configuration window.

Doors Network Configuration Parameters (Single Site Mode)
Opening the Setup > System Window • Open the Setup > System Window by either: • tool bar button • pull-down menu option
Selecting Network Configuration • Click on the Network Config Tab
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
Network Configuration - Save Changes • Click the button • If you close the configuration window without saving, the changes are lost and must be reentered
TCP/IP – Selection • Select the TCP/IP option • TCP/IP configuration must be performed with the assistance of a system or network administrator
TCP/IP – Ethernet Port Number • Enter the Server’s Ethernet Port Number • The default value is 10021, change this value ONLYif it conflicts with another device on the computer
TCP/IP – Remote Site Address • Enter the Remote Site TCP/IP Address • This address must be in industry standard dot notation
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
TCP/IP – Security PIN • For optional, 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
Network Configuration - Save Changes • Click the button • If you close the configuration window without saving, the changes are lost and must be reentered
