SiPass Entro
SiPass Entro software
The SiPass Entro software is Windows-based and very easy to use. It can
communicate with system hardware via direct connection (COM)‚ local
and global networks (LAN/WAN)‚ TCP/IP or modem. The software sup-
ports various operating authorizations D for example‚ reception person-
nel may be authorized only to handle card activation while administra-
tors are authorized to implement basic modifications of the system.
The software provides sophisticated event control and search functions
with graphical icons for door monitoring in addition to common tasks
like card administration. It also includes alarm bypass control with
alarm status feedback (ASF)‚ anti-passback‚ roll-call‚ interlock function‚
elevator control‚ photo ID‚ and many other useful features.
The template design tool in the SiPass Entro software makes it possible
to design personalized ID cards and print them using standard Windows
printer drivers.
It is also very easy to define alarm zones using the SiPass Entro soft-
ware. At each reader or door assigned to an alarm zone‚ the alarm can
be activated or deactivated. SiPass Entro’s Alarm Status Feedback (ASF)
function can indicate the status (armed/disarmed) of the zone at any
reader in the zone (via the red reader LED). In applications that include
SISTORE DVRs‚ the SiPass Entro software fully integrates the DVRs into
the access control system‚ which makes event-triggered recording very
easy.
An integrated Web-based reservation function is also included in the
software. It is ideal for managing access to conference rooms‚ sport
facilities‚ clubs‚ and so on. Reservation can be done via the Internet or
via an InfoPoint reservation terminal. The software also includes an
open TCP/IP interface (BAPSI) to third-party applications.
In cases where wireless components (i.e. RF30-EM and RF9) are used in
a SiPass Entro system‚ the SiPass Entro software handles those compo-
nents in a similar way as it handles wired ones.
The SiPass Entro software is available in the following languages:
Czech‚ Danish‚ Dutch‚ English‚ Finnish‚ French‚ German‚ Italian‚ Norwe-
gian‚ Polish‚ Portuguese‚ Spanish and Swedish.
