Q
Net2 software is common across all Paxton control units (Easyprox, Plus, Classic & Nano) and
Q
the screens will self configure to display the relevant data.
1. Update transmissions.
Q
The Easyprox is a standalone unit. It checks the PC every hour for updates but is otherwise
Q
asleep unless woken up to process a user card for access control. This means that changes made at
Q
the PC are not immediately received by the lock between these hourly update cycles. Updates (except
Q
when the lock is held open by a timezone) can be forced by using the handle to wake up the unit.
Q
Display the Doors screen and double click the entry. Set the door open time to 10 seconds and apply.
Q
If you now touch the handle, the LED will flash Blue as the lock is updated. Presenting a token will now
Q
unlock the unit for 10 seconds. Note that if you do not manually call for the update, it would be sent to
Q
the door immediately following the next access control token read or at its hourly update.
Q
Restore the door open time to 3 seconds using the above procedure.
2. Net2 Server Configuration Utility.
Q
This utility is used to view the Net2Air bridge units that are being used by the Net2 software. To view
Q
this information, run the utility program and select Net2Air bridge tab.
Q
You will see the Net2Air dongle currently in use. This is the screen that you would use to set up
Q
Net2Air USB and Net2Air Ethernet bridge units for a larger installation.
3. Software settings - Set up a Door Name.
Q
Display the Doors screen and double click the entry.
Q
Enter the name of the door in the 'Door Name' box and click Apply. If you now click on the Events tab,
Q
you will see that the 'Where' column now shows the new name against each entry.
4. Lock assembly - LED indications and Alarms.
Q
Holding the unit in one hand, present the user token and once the LED has flashed Green and the lock
Q
has 'clicked' to engage the handle, lower the handle and hold it down.
Q
The unit will attempt to relock after 3 seconds but with the handle held down will fail to do so. The LED
Q
will flash Red while it tries to operate the lock. After 10 seconds, the local alarm will sound and it will
Q
post 'Easyprox cannot lock' in the Events log. Releasing the handle will stop the alarm and lock the
Q
door. A door relock event will be sent to the PC the next time Easyprox communicates with the server.
