The access control system integration wizard

This wizard provides a step-by-step configuration of the initial integration with an access control system. It enables you to complete the most basic configuration tasks and configure more in detail later.

Before you run the access control integration wizard, make sure you have installed the access control system's integration plug-in on the event server.

You might need to specify more settings for the connection details, but the settings typically include adding the network address of the access control system server and an administrator’s user name and password. XProtect uses these credentials to log in to the access control system and retrieve the complete configuration.

The integration plug-in might also define additional settings not listed in the wizard. If needed, you can adjust these settings later in General Settings after you've set up the integration. Any default values for the settings come from the plug-in or the access control system itself.

  1. In XProtect Management Client, on the Access Control node, right-click Systems and select Create new....

  2. In the Create access control system integrationwizard, give it a name, then specify the connection details for the access control system you want to add.

When the plug-in has integrated the access control system and there have been no errors in the process, you'll see a summary of the configuration retrieved from the access control system. Review the summary to make sure everything has been integrated before proceeding the next step.
