To continue configuring the system, add an output interface to the access controller.

  1. From the sidebar, select Devices.
  2. Select Actions menu on the access controller to which the output interface will be added.
  3. Select Add Output Interface to open the New Output Interface screen. When the maximum number of output interfaces are added, this action will be disabled.
  4. Enter a Name for the output interface.
  5. "LNL-1200" is displayed as the Device Type.
  6. Port can be modified if the controller has two (2) ports. This specifies the controller port to which this output interface is attached.
  7. Enter the Address. This number corresponds to the DIP switch setting on the output interface.
  8. Select Save to save the configuration. If you exit this screen after entering the output interface information without saving, you will be prompted to save or discard your change.

Output Interface Actions

Select Actions menu on a configured output interface to access these actions:

  • View Details - Presents read-only output interface information and any recent output interface events. For more information about an output interface event, select the event to open its details screen.
  • Configure - Select to modify the output interface.
  • Delete - Select to remove the output interface configuration.

Deleting an output interface affects access to spaces and also deletes its associated outputs. Also, another output interface may not come online if it is added after this deletion. To resolve this, synchronize the access controller.

Configure Outputs

When an output interface is added, 16 slots are automatically included for configuring its output relays. To configure an output, complete the following steps:

  1. Under the output interface in the Devices list, select the Add Output slot to open its configuration screen.
  2. Name: Enter a unique, descriptive name for the output.
  3. Activate on Schedule: Select a schedule (if any) when the output will be active. Available choices are the currently defined schedules.
  4. Always Activate: Select toggle switch (off) to enable toggle switch (on). Specifies the output will always be in an active (“on”) state. When Always Activate is enabled, Activate on Schedule will not be available because the output will be active during all schedules.
  5. Pulse time: This option is used to configure the pulse time (in seconds). The output can then be pulsed (turned on, then off again) using the Momentary Activate action.
  6. Select Save to save the configuration. If you exit this screen after entering the output information without saving, you will be prompted to save or discard your change.

The available (non-configured) slots can be filtered. From the hide or show options hide or show options above the Devices list,  select Hide available slots or Show available slots. Showing the available slots is useful during configuration, but once the required outputs are configured, hiding the unused slots makes it easier to view the configuration.

As a further configuration aid, the Devices list provides the board location of the outputs in the Type column.

  • Momentary Activate - Pulses (turns on, then off) the output for the duration configured in Pulse time.
  • Activate - Turns on the output. The output is then in the Activate state.
  • Deactivate - Turns off the output. The output is then in the Deactivate state.
  • View Details - Presents read-only output information and any recent output events. For more information about an output event, select the event to open its details screen.
  • Configure - Select to modify the output.

  • Delete - Select to remove the output configuration.
