Help

The Elements OnGuard Connector is a browser-based component that establishes a connection with one or more Elements accounts to allow an OnGuard administrator to configure Elements/OnGuard integrations.

Versioning Information

For an up-to-date list, refer to the LenelS2-OnGuard Browser Clients Compatibility Chart on the LenelS2 web site.

For OnGuard version support and system hardware requirements, refer to the OnGuard Release Notes (DOC-1012-EN-US).

Intended Usage

The Elements OnGuard Connector is intended to connect remote and branch offices using Elements to an OnGuard system.

Elements offers a full-featured, standalone and cloud-based access control solution. For enterprise systems, the Elements OnGuard Connector enables OnGuard to seamlessly communicate with the Elements system. Enterprise systems have the flexibility to run on-premises OnGuard at its headquarters while satellite offices or branches are secured by Elements.

Product Updates

Share data between Elements and an OnGuard system by configuring accounts (formerly known as sites) in the Elements OnGuard Connector.
Enable or disable synchronization of cardholders and/or events as needed.
Select Elements groups to assign OnGuard cardholders to when synced.
Configure the schedule for cardholder syncs, with options for full or incremental syncs.
Define multiple rules to handle cardholder syncing.
Apply filters to limit Elements events synced to OnGuard.
A new History page displays the details of cardholder pushes that have occurred for each Elements account.

Limitations

In order for events being pushed from a cloud site to OnGuard to be viewed in a monitoring application (for example, OnGuard Alarm Monitoring or OnGuard Monitor), the selected monitor zone must have at least one physical device in it that is monitored by a Communication Server. If the monitor zone only has logical devices (devices not directly associated to a Communication Server), then the monitoring application will not receive live events.
