  21. S2 Training Guide Portal Configuration Continued 8.) Click on Accept Read While Open to allow card reads even if the portal is physically open.

  22. S2 Training Guide Portal Configuration Continued 9.) The Time Spec and Threat Level Group options are used for the keypad option only. The keypad can be programmed to be used only during certain times.

  23. S2 Training Guide Portal Configuration Continued The lower portion of the portal view is used to configure any alarm events the portal should generate. This is used to fire an output for a burglar alarm trip or a siren for example. The events are programmed separately.

  24. S2 Training Guide Defining Reader Groups If you will be giving common access to several readers, i.e perimeter doors, you can group them together to ease administration of access levels 1.) Click Add and name the group. 2.) Timed Anti Passback is for In/Out portals. This will suspend access for a period of time if a person attempts to badge in or out of the same portal out of sequence 3.) This is the list of the readers that are available to group. To add readers to the group click on the reader in list on the left and move it to the right side list.

  25. S2 Training Guide Time Specifications You can configure the system to have certain actions scheduled throughout the day, i.e – unlock a door, allow access etc. This feature can be found in SETUP -> TIME -> TIME SPECS 1.) Type in the name of the time spec. TPB recommends a name in the format of “M-F 8 AM – 5PM”. 2.) Enter the start and stop times and days of the week the time spec will be used. 3.) Choose which holiday group (if any) that you want this time spec to be active. 4.) Click Save when completed.

If 24x7 choose the “Always” option. 4.) Click on Save when complete.

  27. S2 Training Guide Access Level Configuration • The option for floor group relates to the use of elevator control. • Threat Level Group deals with varying system feature during elevated threat levels, which conform to the Dept of Homeland Security standard. This is a VERY powerful feature that must be discussed prior to any system commissioning due to the complex nature of the programming. • Disarm alarm panel is a feature that can retrieve and send status messages to supported alarm systems. • Action on Passback Violation deals with In and Out readers at a portal. If a person attempts to badge out of the facility without badging in, you can have the access level allow and flag the action or deny access.

  28. S2 Training Guide Adding a Person to the System Once the system parameters have been completed, people and cards can be added to the system. The person menu item can be found under ADMINISTRATION -> PEOPLE The information to enter on this page is self-explanatory. The ID# is NOT the card number. It can be any number you assign, i.e. employee number, hotstamp number etc. The PIN option is used if keypad readers are installed.

  29. S2 Training Guide Adding a Person to the System Cont’d Once the initial information is entered, click on next. This opens the following screen where additional information must be added. 1.) Click Add New and enter the encoded number of the badge. If this number is not known, click on Read Card. Choose the reader you will be presenting the badge to and swpie the card at the reader. It will place the correct encoded number in the field. The card format will be given by TPB 2.) Select the access level(s) you want to assign to this person.

To assign a photo to a badge, click on “attach ID photo. This will open up a windows based file browser from where you can search for the image. Once found click on Save. The image file MUST be a .jpg or .jpeg and MUST be less than 30KB.

  31. S2 Training Guide Adding a Person to the System Cont’d The next important tab is the Contact tab. This is where you input the persons e-mail address, SMS (text) message address and other contact information. If e-mail or SMS messaging is desired, the system must be configured to send e-mail and SMS messages. This requires the customers e-mail server be setup to relay messages from the Network Controller IP Address. This information should be provided to TPB prior to system programming.

  32. S2 Training Guide • Adding a Person to the System Cont’d • The other tabs can be populated if desired. These include Vehicle Information, User-Defined information and other non-system related contact information. Once this information has been programmed into the system the badges should grant or deny access to the appropriate portals.

  33. S2 Training Guide Holidays If you have doors that unlock automatically during the day you will want to configure system holidays so the door will not unlock for that day. 1.) Enter a name for the holiday. 2.) Holiday Groups allow you to perform different schedules based on the group the holiday is in. The majority of the time the Holiday Group will be Group 1. 3.) Enter the start and stop dates of the holiday. Once entered the scheduled event will not take place unless specifically told to do so on a holiday. 4.) Click Save when you are finished.

  34. S2 Training Guide History Reports S2 has several built in reporting options for retrieving history of badge transactions and other system events. These can be found under ADMINISTRATION -> REPORTS -> HISTORY The reports available are Access History, General Event History and Portal Access Count.

  35. S2 Training Guide Access History The data entry here is self explanatory. Enter the last name of the person, the start and stop dates for the report and which portal you want the report on. Leave this at the default for all portals if a specific one is not needed.

  36. S2 Training Guide General Event History As you can see there are a few more options on the general event report. This report returns the specific event data for a chosen portal or system event. For example: Access Granted events at the front door for the past week.

  37. S2 Training Guide Portal Access Count Report This report returns a count of how many times a specific person used a specific portal or all portals. Enter the from and thru dates, which portal (or all) and the last name of the person. The “Where” field can be used if you are tracking people by department, for example. That way the report could be run based on how many times members of a specific department accessed certain portals.

  38. S2 Training Guide System Activity Monitoring There are several ways to monitor system activity. The monitoring items can be found under MONITOR in the menu. The main options are the Activity Log and the Monitoring Desktop. This is an example of the Activity Log. It shows all system activity on the same scrolling screen. A more organized option is the Monitoring Desktop.

  39. S2 Training Guide The Monitoring Desktop

  40. S2 Training Guide The Monitoring Desktop Cont’d • The monitoring desktop is broken down into several windows to separate alarms from card activity. This makes it easier to monitor alarm activity. • If cameras are integrated with S2, they can be viewed from this desktop in a separate window. • Alarm maps can also be viewed to give a visual aid to exactly where in the building the alarm is taking place. • If photos are linked to people a snapshot of the photo can be seen when that person enters the building.

  41. S2 Training Guide Remote Assistance S2 has the ability to initiate a secure remote session with an authorized 3rd party to aid in remote system assistance. This option can be found under SUPPORT/UTILITY -> ABOUT Click here to initiate the session.

  42. S2 Training Guide Remote Assistance Cont’d The above window will open. You will receive an ID number from your Protection Bureau technician. Once connected the technician has the ability to view your system and can correct any problems you may be experiencing.
