01914-005 Rev. 5.9 Section 5: Monitor and Update Controllers 5-35

2.0 Update and Collect Events from the Controllers

Now that all of the instructions necessary for day-to-day operation of the access control network have

been entered, they must be downloaded to the access control network.

2.1 Update the Network

The Update Network commands uploads from the host computer to the access control network any

changes made to the Doors databases.

1. Click on the icon on the tool bar. The Update Network window will appear. If changes

have been made and the network needs to be updated, the Update Required field will indicate this

with a “Yes”, and the Skip/Update toggle box under the Smart Update Network field will indicate

“Update” (see Figure 5-34).

NOTE: The Smart Update Network command uploads from the host computer to the access control

network only the changes made to the Doors databases since the last update was performed. While

setting up the databases and at most times in the future, using the Smart Update will meet your needs.

There may be times, however, when you want to re-send all database information to the controllers. In

such cases, click on the Skip/Update toggle box under the Total Update Network field and the word

“Skip” will toggle to “Update”.

2. Click on the button to begin Update of the Network.

NOTE: Click on the button at any time to stop the update process.

3. Once all parameters are collected, the host computer connects to the access control network (if it

isn’t already connected). The Net Communication window appears if the access control network

connection needs to be made (see Figure 5-35 on page 36 of this section).
