Adding Online Locks

This section describes how to add online locks, such as door modules and I/O cards, to iLOQ Locking System.

Note:

You do not necessarily need the actual physical locks to add locks in iLOQ Locking System. You can define the locks and associate them with the physical locks at a later phase.

Proceed as follows.

  1. Select Basic data > Browse locks.

  2. Select Add lock.
    The Add lock wizard is opened.
  3. Select Add lock.
  4. Define the lock settings as follows:

    • Placement — Placement refers to the location of the lock on the floor plan. If you are adding several locks at a time, set the first placement in a way that it ends with a number, such as A1. In this way, the system adds consecutive placement numbers as follows:

      • A1
      • A2
      • A3
      • ...

    • Approach direction — Approach direction refers to the direction where the lock will be opened from, if the door is equipped with double side lock.

    • Locking target — Locking target provides a more detailed description or name of the room or premises, where the lock will lead to.

      If you are adding several locks at a time, set the first locking target in a way that it ends with a number, such as Apartment A1. In this way, the system adds consecutive locking targets as follows:

      • Apartment A1
      • Apartment A2
      • Apartment A3
      • ...

    • Lock cylinder — Lock cylinder refers to the lock cylinder type. Select the type from the drop-down list, or enter the type manually.

    • Zone — Select the zone for the lock.

    • Lock type — Select Online.

      The online lock can be:

      • N501 4G door module, or
      • N502 door module, N507 I/O card and a C5S lock cylinder connected to an N500 network module

      that can be opened with a K5S electro-mechanical key and S50 Key fob.

      If the lock type is Online, the options below are automatically selected.

    • Clock installed — Select Clock installed if there is a clock circuit in the lock. If the selected Lock cylinder contains a clock, Clock installed will be automatically selected.

      Note:

      In conjunction with initial programming, always connect the RTC unit to the connection cable on the lock. After this, do not disconnect the RTC unit from the connection cable.

      If you have disconnected the RTC unit from the connection cable, you must restart the RTC unit. You can do this by inserting a programming key, connected to the programming cable, to the keyway of the lock cylinder. Always carry out this procedure after disconnecting the RTC unit.

    • Save lock audit trails automatically — Select whether or not the system automatically receives audit trail events from the lock. If you want to use automatic reception of audit trails, also enable the Lock collects audit trail option.

    • Lock collects audit trail — Select whether the lock collects audit trail or not.

    • Allow API access rights — Check Allow API access rights to allow Application Programming Interface (API) access rights for the lock. When enabled, in addition to standard access rights, the lock reads API access rights assigned for the key. See Access Rights.
