Secure Perfect 6.1.1 User Manual 200
• If a MicroPXNPlus or MicroPXNPlus2000 is downstream, consider
obtaining a network connection and using the Web Integrated
Configuration Tool to individually download firmware for ALL
micros.
Connection
Type You must select a micro type before this field becomes available. An
error message displays if the selected connection type is not valid with
the micro type.
• Select Dial-up if this micro is connected by a modem.
• Select Direct if a cable connects this micro.
• Select Network if this is a network micro connected by a network.
• Select Network + Dial-up if this is a network micro and has a
backup dial-up option. When the network connection is not
available, the host attempts to reach the micro via a dial-up modem.
• Select Network + Direct if this is a network micro. When the network
connection is not available, communication fails over to the
secondary direct connection and communication continues.
• Select Network + Network if this is a network micro. When the
network connection is not available, communication fails over to a
secondary network communication through another IP address,
assigned on the Port Settings tab.
Dial-Up and Network + Dial-Up Micros: If the host computer of this
micro is licensed for Client Redundancy and has assigned a backup
client, a dialog box displays, reminding you to complete the Client Form
by configuring telephone numbers for backup clients to reach this micro.
Host Keep
Alive Type (or use the up and down arrows) the number of seconds that the
host will wait before sending the next message to a micro. Enter a
number between 10 and 3600. In general, you want a large number
when you have many micros on the same line or have a slow baud rate.
The default is 30 seconds and in most cases, it does not need to be
changed.
Host
Computer Select the PC Name from the drop-down list. This is the host machine
that will communicate with the newly defined micro in the future and acts
as the micro communication server.
If the Default Hostname computer is in a failover condition, you cannot
re-assign this micro to any other Host computer except the Active Client
that is presently hosting this device.
Badge
Loading Note that any time a badge that is not in a micro is presented to a
reader, it is reported as unknown and the host sends the badge to the
micro. This happens regardless of the Badge Loading option. The
micros can store only a limited number of badges. Refer to the
"Licensing Secure Perfect" chapter of the Secure Perfect Installation
Guide for capacities. When a previously unknown badge is sent to a
micro whose badge capacity is exceeded, the micro randomly chooses
a badge to delete to make room for the new badge. The badge is
deleted from the micro but not from the Secure Perfect system.
Select Force to force a download of all badges that can possibly gain
access to a reader on the micro.
Select Learn to allow the micro to "learn" the badges as they are
presented. For example, when a badge is presented to a reader and the
micro does not recognize the badge as valid, the micro communicates
with the host to confirm badge validity. If the badge is valid, the
information for that badge is downloaded to the micro; therefore, the
micro will acknowledge this badge as valid the next time the badge is
presented to the reader.
