TownSteel NE7 Network Encoder

Introduction

The NE7 network encoder is an essential component of the online electronic locking system. It encrypts and issues resident, system, and management keycards for electronic door locks. To ensure proper connectivity, it is necessary to establish an Ethernet LAN connection with the server. The network encoder (NE7) is also used as the bridge for synchronizing data between the Maintenance app and the online server.

Before You Get Started

Before setting up the network encoder (NE7) device, install the online system and maintenance app first. Assign the IP address to the network encoder (NE7) device. You also need to install the electronic door locks before testing.
