1. Introduction
Figure 1: Example of online configuration. Several other configurations are possible;
see Appendix C for some examples.
With the online option, the locks can both send and retrieve information. Commands
can be sent from the front desk (hotel systems)/company reception (access control
systems) to the lock. e.g., in hotel systems a guest can change rooms without
needing to go to the reception. Events are directly sent to the application server.
This chapter describes the online network topology all the way from the server to
the lock. Commands sent from the server to a lock will pass through the items in the
order they are mentioned. Answers will pass through the same items but in the
opposite direction.
Note: The most information in this manual is common for hotel systems and access
control systems. In some cases there are however specific sections, which is clearly
stated in the heading.
Note: Some online functions require the Online advanced option; see the section
about options in the client user manual for details.
