Configuring IP-Based Single Door Controllers
•
Feature improvements for IPSDCs are occasionally made available on the product web site in the
form of firmware updates. See
•
IPSDCs can be configured to use a fallback mode if connectivity with the System Controller is
lost. A local cache that stores the last 50 successful credentials can grant access. See
•
IPSDCs do not support Buzzer On and Buzzer Off actions configured for action triggers, tamper
input points, or auxiliary input types. See the TruPortal IP-Based Single Door Controller Quick
Reference for details about modifying jumper settings for input types.

To replace an IPSDC, refer to
Preparing Client Workstations to Use the Integrated Configuration Tool
(ICT)
The Integrated Configuration Tool (ICT) is a browser-based program that is built-in to each IPSDC
that can be used to configure an IPSDC to recognize the System Controller.
The default IP address of an IPSDC is 192.168.6.6. Before using the ICT to configure an IPSDC, the
local client workstation must be prepared so that it is on the same sub-network as the IPSDC. These
steps vary depending on which operating system is used, as described next.

x is any number between 1 and 254 except 6).
8.
Change the subnet to 255.255.255.0.
The default gateway does not need to be changed.
9.
Click OK until all open windows are closed.
