5.8.5.2. Configuration
The access modules work with internal encryption. The key is stored in the DatafoxStudioIV but not
visible.
If no key is provided under "AES Key" (PHG only), the default key is used.
!
Caution:
The key must only be changed at a fully installed access control. If you changed the key
and forgot it, the modules must be sent in. Restoring the default key is subject to a
charge.
All door modules that are compiled in the reader table have to be available in the RS485 network in
order to guarantee that the code can be changed in all modules if a new setup with a different code
is loaded. If a door module from the list in the bus is missing, the key is not changed. The old setup
with the old key has to be reloaded; otherwise, after rebooting the device, it is not possible to com-
municate with the door modules until the right key is used again.
If a defective reader is replaced by a new reader that has not been used yet, it is recognized by the
firmware automatically at the start and the encryption is set up. The reader can also be replaced
during operation, the firmware automatically integrates it.
Contrary to GIS readers, PHG readers always have 2 digital inputs and a sabotage contact. The
firmware regards input 1 and input 2 as normal inputs with the number 1 and 2 and the sabotage
contact as number 3. The sabotage contact is integrated in the reader. The PHG reader has no ana-
log-switch-input for door monitoring.
Additionally, the PHG reader can be extended by an IO box. The IO box has two digital inputs and
two relay outputs. The IO box is accessed via the same address like the reader. The two digital in-
puts have port number 4 and 5, the digital outputs port number 1 and 2. In case of discontinuity or
sabotage, port no. 6 is used.
