Setup Controller
If you're turning system power on for the first time, certain tasks must be performed prior to entering access control
information from
Doors
. On the EntraGuard Platinum main board (see Figure 3 on page 3 or Figure 4 on page 4), hold the
Reset Button (SW1) down and turn the controller’s power on. After the controller beeps once, indicating the controller’s
firmware is ready for programming, release the SW1 button. The LCD on the front panel will display the Reset Menu (see
Figure 6). From this menu you may perform these tasks:set the controller’s address, clear the controller’s memory, set the
microphone volume, run diagnostics, and set the LCD font.

NOTE: If no keys have been selected within 60 seconds, the unit will time out and go directly to the default message. In
order to reach the Reset Menu, the unit must be powered up again.

Set Unit Address
The controller’s address may only be set through the Reset Menu. To set the desired operating address for the controller,
press 1 on the keypad. The Set New Unit Address screen appears on the LCD (see Figure 7).
Figure 7: Set Unit Address
The address range is from 1 to 128. The Master Controller must be set to address 1. Other slave EntraGuard/PXL
controllers may be assigned any number from 2 to 128.
If the address shown as Current is correct, you may either enter the same address and press *, or just press * to return to
the reset menu. If you do not enter a new address, or enter the same address that is already assigned to this unit, you will
need to clear the memory separately (see “Clear the Controller’s RAM’’ on page 8).
NOTE: Changing the address of an EntraGuard Platinum controller completely erases all information within the
controller. It is vitally important that you collect all data from the controller before changing the address. Once the
address is changed (and the RAM is automatically cleared) the information in the controller is lost and cannot be
recovered.
