4.6.1 Add device Although there are several methods to create the hardware, two methods will be described in this chapter. 4.6.1.2 Link to existing reader Start by adding manually readers within iProtect. Browse to the menu: Installation | Hardware | Node. Add a reader by clicking with the right-mouse button on the DOM node. Click on the icon “add reader”. Fill in the logical name of the reader and select the correct card data interpretation. If desired, you can adjust the door open time in the "door behavior" tab. Once everything has been filled in, you can press the save button. You can grant access rights to the reader by adding the reader to the desired reader groups, you can do this in the reader group list under the created reader.
Browse back to the menu: Installation | Hardware | Node. Select the DOM Controller Node. Open the tab: Other and enable by Installation option the checkbox “Add automatically”. Select “Link to existing reader' at the New device (app) option.

When the auto-discovery process is started, assigning of new device and readers will be activated for 4 hours. After this time this process will stop automatically. |
All newly added devices with the dom service app are automatically added to iProtect and linked to the correct reader. The offline sync status will be visible and if everything is correct the status should be changed in a minute to the status “The configuration is synchronized”.
Info |
---|
If the status is different, you should check this within the DOM service app by first synchronizing the DOM service app with the DOM controller and then synchronizing the locks. |
4.6.1.2.1 DOM Service appUse the DOM service app to add the devices. During this process you can directly link the newly created readers to the correct devices in the DOM service app. Synchronize the DOM service app with the DOM controller. Add a device by clicking the Devices button and then clicking the + sign in the DOM service app. Apply the mobile phone (Android) to the device or present de RF Wake-up card to the device (IOS). Click on the OSS-SO-configuration button to link the device to the door (iProtect reader). Press on the couple button. Follow the instructions in the DOM service app.
Info |
---|
By using this way of configuration, only one synchronization with the device is needed |
Info |
---|
If you change access rights or other reader settings after this step, synchronization must take place again for the device in question. |
Once the new devices have been assigned from the DOM Service app and the app has been synchronized with the DOM controller, the devices will be enrolled and automatically linked to the correct reader in iProtect. After it has been linked automatically, when using mobile access, enable the checkbox “IPROTECT Access”. 4.6.1.3 Link to a new readerThis setup can be done automatically by the system by enabling the auto discovery function. When a new device is assigned from the DOM Service app, and the app is synchronized with the DOM controller, iProtect will automatically recognize it and assign the preset settings to the device. Info |
---|
By using this way of configuration, multiple synchronizations with the device are needed! |
Note |
---|
The mobile phone used to program the locks must have a stable and direct online connection with the DOM controller. If this is not possible, we recommend using the manual method. |
Browse to the menu: Installation | Hardware | Node. Select the DOM Controller Node. Open the tab: Other and enable by Installation option the checkbox “Add automatically”. Select “Link to new reader' at the New device (app) option. Select the correct Card data interpretation. When using mobile access, enable the checkbox “IPROTECT Access”. Select a Reader group which can be used during testing the system. Start the auto discovery process by pressing on the start button.

When the auto-discovery process is started, assigning of new device and readers will be activated for 4 hours. After this time this process will stop automatically. |
4.6.1.3.1 DOM Service appUse the DOM service app to add a new device. Synchornize the DOM service app with the DOM controller. Add a device by clicking the Devices button and then clicking the + sign in the DOM service app. Apply the mobile phone (Android) to the device or present de RF Wake-up card to the device (IOS). Change the name of the device (this will be the reader name in iProtect). Press on the couple button. Follow the instructions in the DOM service app (sometimes multiple synchronizations are necessary).
When the reader is synchronized, the following is displayed: |
