Viewing and Changing Lock Configuration
The Configuration Settings tab allows the user to make changes to the DSR and lock configuration with functions such as Controller Settings, Network Settings, Reader Settings, and Server Settings. Each of these options can have multiple selections.
Controller Settings
The Controller Setting menu allows the user to select controller options such as AES Encryption, Device Specific Commands, System Configurations, and Firmware Upload.
AES Encryption
This screen allows the user to set the AES encryption key. This key is used to encrypt the messages between the lock and the DSR. The AES Encryption Key Configuration screen is accessed from Configuration Settings>Controller Settings>AES Encryption .
WARNING: Many DSR integrations support the configuration of AES key settings through the access control system application. If the host software supports a feature exposed here, DO NOT configure it in the DSR. Otherwise the host application may occasionally overwrite these settings and cause confusion at the system operator and cardholder level. Please contact technical support if you are unsure about whether to configure an option in the DSR or in the host application.
The top part of the screen allows the user to select the Key Type, either Private Key (default)or Shared Key. Shared Key uses one (starting) AES key for all locks in the system for easier setup. If the key lifespan is set to anything other than 0, the key for each lock will roll to a unique value. Private Key sets a unique starting key for each lock from the very beginning.
If Shared Key is selected, the following settings have to be made:
- Key this is the key identification number (32 character hexadecimal string)
- Encryption select On or Off (default)
- Key lifespan in seconds default value is 86000 seconds. The allowed range is 60-86000. The key will not roll over if the value is set to 0.
DSR Support Tool User Manual
NOTE: If using this feature, the initial key loaded in the DSR Support Tool MUST match the initial key loaded into the lock with the Lock Configuration Tool (LCT). To manually change or reset the key on the lock, an initial key will need to be loaded into the lock with LCT.
The bottom part of the screen contains a lock list. Only confirmed locks are displayed. Each lock is displayed with the lock Serial Number, Encryption Key, Encryption status (on/off), Key Lifespan value, and when the key was last updated.
To edit lock information when Private Key is selected, click on the checkbox next to the desired lock Serial Number. This allows the Encryption Key, Encryption Status, and Key Lifespan fields to be edited. If the Encryption Status is set to ON, values must be entered in the Encryption Key and Lifespan fields. If Encryption Status is set to OFF, the Encryption Key and Lifespan fields must be blank. Save the changes by clicking the OK button.
To edit lock information when Shared Key is selected, select multiple locks from the list by clicking on multiple checkboxes. Enter the shared encryption key in the Encryption Key field in the top part of the screen. Set the Encryption Status to ON and set the Lifespan value. Click the Apply button to apply the shared key to the selected locks. Once the key is applied, click the OK button to save the changes.
To turn off the Encryption Key, select multiple locks from the list by clicking on multiple checkboxes. Change the Encryption Status to OFF. Click the Apply button. Click the OK button to save the changes.
Device Specific Commands
This menu has two selections, Default Settings and Custom Settings, that allow the user to set the system defaults and custom settings for locks.
WARNING: Most DSR integrations support the configuration of many Device Specific Commands through the access control system application. If the host software supports a feature exposed here, DO NOT configure it in the DSR. Otherwise the host application may occasionally overwrite these settings and cause confusion at the system operator and cardholder level. Please contact technical support if you are unsure about whether to configure an option in the DSR or in the host application.
Default Settings
Default Settings allow the user to add or update the default configuration items, filters, alarms, or lock limits. The default parameters are saved in the DSR database and will be sent to each lock once the lock is confirmed. For existing locks, if default configuration settings are added to each lock once or updated, the latest settings are applied only if custom settings are not set for the lock. Custom settings always supercede the default settings.
There are four tabs on this page:
- Configuration Items (default selection)
