Gather and Organize Segment Data (Task 3)
As the technical team works on planning and installing hardware using the Site Plan, a
program administrator or other person responsible for the software side of program setup
should be making plans to populate and configure the Wi-Q Interface Software and the
System Software.
Device Information
You will need the MAC numbers, device names, capacities, and physical locations of
all Wi-Q Gateways so that you can easily identify them and assign them to the correct
location within the Wi-Q Interface Software and System Software. Ensure your site
technical team will provide you this information as they work their way through the site.
User Information
To set up your Wi-Q System you will need to gather the names of users, define their access
requirements, organize user and timezone groups, and decide how you will use other
features configurable within OnGuard.
It will be helpful to create a table listing what you know about each user. Starting with a
list of names, think about building a table that defines basic information about each user;
such as, User Type, User Group, Shift, and so on. Following is a very simple example:
What User Groups will help you manage security? Do you have shift workers who are
allowed on site only during certain days or hours? Will there be areas off limits to certain
groups? Do some users need extra time to pass through a door, such as to accommodate a
food cart or wheel chair? Start thinking about these elements and begin organizing the data
as soon as possible so you’ll be ready when your equipment and software are ready. It is
a good idea to use a spreadsheet software such as Microsoft® Excel® for this purpose.
That way you can sort the data to help you plan your segment.
Importing Data
Do you have an existing database that already contains much of the information you need?
It is likely you can modify a version and import it into your System using the program’s
System Administration feature. If you have a large organization, this will save you time and
reduce data entry error. See the System Administration User Guide for more information.
