Software applications
The SiPass Entro software consists of three applications:
Installer
This application is used for setup of the hardware. Install PC, Controllers and door
monitor contact and alarm zones.
Entro
This application is used for configuring and managing access groups and persons
(cardholders). It can be treated as main part of the software, because it is used for
daily operations.
The following functions are integrated in the Entro:
Access control
Add Cardholder, choose and configure Caretakers, create Access Groups,
create Time Schedules, Zones (anti-pass-back zones, roll call zones, entrance
limitation zones
Card printing (badge printing)
Create your own card design and print it on an industry standard cards.
Video Surveillance (CCTV) integration
The SiPass Entro system can be used in combination with a Siemens CCTV
system. A connection can be done from the SiPass Entro software directly to
install and maintain the CCTV system (e. g. DVRs and cameras)
Intrusion alarm system control
A common application for the SiPass Entro is, beside access control, to control
an external intrusion alarm system by means of an access card.
Reservation function
The System Administrator sets which objects (such as card readers/doors) are
to be included and chooses the relevant reservation time schedules.
The users wanting to reserve times can use an ordinary web-browser (such as
Internet Explorer). Alternatively use his/her card in a reservation terminal
(InfoPoint IP811) – depending on how the system is configured.
Printouts
Door Monitor
This application is used to display event logs, door status and video sequences. It
can be also used for unlocking doors via the PC.
