Image Description: A screenshot of the iVMS-4200 software interface showing the device management panel. It displays a list of connected devices, including the DS-K1T501. A pop-up window titled 'Modify' is open, showing various configuration settings for the device.

Configuration Settings

The 'Modify' window includes the following relevant settings:

• Serial Port: 1
• Baud Rate: 600 (initial) / 19200 (modified)
• Data Bit: 7Bit (initial) / 8Bit (modified)
• Stop Bit: 1Bit
• Parity: None
• Communication Mode: Half Duplex

Click 'Save' to apply the changes.

Step 3: Add Card and Person Info and Sync to K2604 Access Controller

Add cardholder information and synchronize it with the K2604 access controller.

Image Description: A screenshot of the iVMS-4200 software's 'Access Control' panel. It shows options to add new permissions, templates, and personnel. The interface allows users to select specific doors or devices for access, with a list of available access control points like 'test_K2604' and 'Door2_K2604' associated with the 'K2604' group.

Permission Management

• Permission Name: e.g., '123'
• Template: e.g., 'Whole Week Template'
• Person Search: Allows searching for individuals.
• Selected Personel: Displays added personnel, e.g., 'Morgen hq/1'.
• Access Control Point/Device: Lists devices like 'test_K2604', 'Door2_K2604', etc., grouped under 'K2604'.

Use 'Add Template' and 'Edit Permission' functions as needed.

Step 4: Test Card and Check Event from iVMS-4200 Software

Verify the card functionality on the K1T501SF and monitor events within the iVMS-4200 software.

Image Description: A screenshot of the iVMS-4200 software's 'Alarm Event' log. It displays a chronological list of events, including timestamps, alarm sources (e.g., 'Access Control Device:K2604 test'), alarm details, and alarm content (e.g., 'test', 'Lock Door', 'Unlock Door', 'Normal Card Authentication Pa...').
