What's New?
What’s New in Secure Perfect
New in 6.1.1 ONLY:
Status by Region: This feature allows you to configure APB readers across Regions or
within a specific Region only. If configured across Regions, entering a Region activates the badge only in
that region and disables the badge in all other Regions.
Micro Connection Type Network + Direct Communication: This is a new network configuration option
selectable on the
Micro Form, Micro Definition tab
. This selection allows a micro that loses network
connection to fail over to a serial connection. On the Micro Utility Form, a network micro normally displays
an IP address in the Comm device column. When a network micro loses connection, the Alarm Monitor
Form displays a Host Comm alarm. After approximately two minutes, the alarm resets and the serial
connection begins communications. The Micro Utility Form Comm device column now displays the
Comm port.
Micro Connection Type Network + Network: This is a new network configuration option selectable on
the
Micro Form, Micro Definition tab
. This selection allows a micro that loses network connection to fail
over to a secondary network connection. When a network micro loses connection, Alarm Monitor Form
displays a Host Comm alarm. After approximately two minutes, the alarm resets and network
communications begin. The Micro Utility Form Comm device column now displays the backup IP address
or network name, as assigned on the
tab.
Window is a Separate Application: The window launches independently from
the Secure Perfect application and can be moved outside of the Secure Perfect window area. This is
useful for dual-display monitors or wide monitor display.
Suspend Badge After Invalid PIN Attempts: This option is configured on the
of the Reader
Form. Select Max Invalid PIN Count and enter a number between 1 and 6 as the number of times an
invalid PIN can be entered at a reader before the badge is suspended. If the badge is suspended, the
badge must be reset to Active by a system administrator.
DVR Search - Play Single Recorded Frame: The Search Results windowpane in DVR Search returns a
list of recorded video event tags based on the search parameter criteria specified. Select an event tag
from the list and right-click to display a shortcut menu. The shortcut menu has been expanded to include
. When selected, a single image displays in the video window. This is the
first frame of the event recording displayed as a still photo. To play the rest of the video clip, unpause the
video on the DVR Viewer.
Two New Micro Types: MicroPXNPlus or MicroPXNPlus 2000 are selectable on the
tab. A board provides direct, dial-up, and network capabilities in one board. The network
supports Ethernet only. The board also has an integrated modem option which means that the modem is
a chip that can be ordered with the board or added at a later date. This modem can also be used as dial-
up fallback to a network board. Both boards support the following reader boards, 2RP, 2SRP, 8RP, and
CK8RP. The boards provide nonvolatile storage that provides faster reset recovery and allows hostless
operation. A new Web Integrated Configuration Tool was created for flashing these micro types,
eliminating the need to install Flashtool on each computer in order to download and flash the micros.
Database Connection: This feature is configured on the
tab. This feature
allows you to configure the amount of time that elapes before your Secure Perfect system retries the
connection and considers that the database is not accessable.
•
Timeout (sec): The default is 30 seconds. The minimum is 3 seconds; the maximum is 120 seconds.
1) In a Secure Perfect Global Edition configuration, this is the amount of time until a Regional failover
begins. 2) In a typical Secure Perfect configuration, this is the amount of time before Secure Perfect
transactions are saved, Secure Perfect services shut down, and a message advises you to repair your
database.
•
Retry: The default is 3 retries. The minimum is ‘0’; the maximum is 5 retries.
