MINIMUM WIRELESS SYSTEM
As shown in the overview drawings on page 1, you do
not need a massively complex corporate network to run
a working system. In fact, a minimum wireless system
may consist of a laptop or desktop computer (to run
DL-Windows), a home router (to allow connection to a
computer network), and an Alarm Lock Gateway mod-
ule (the intermediary between the network and the
locks). Although you can set up the wireless network
first and add locks to the doors later, for the sake of
convenience it is recommended that you have at least
one Networx
™
lock installed on a door before setting up
your wireless system.
NETWORK SECURITY
The system uses AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
to protect the integrity of the data flow between the wire-
less router/network and the Gateways.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
DL-Windows software is the basis for wireless lock
programming. For those unfamiliar with using DL-
Windows software, stop here and review the DL-
Windows User Guide (OI237). It may be helpful to cre-
ate a "test" Account in DL-Windows while walking
through the examples presented in this User Guide and
in OI237.
If you are already familiar with DL-Windows, the transi-
tion to working with wireless locks will be straightforward
with slight changes in terminology. If you want to get
started right away to see the system work, see the Quick
Start Guide (OI362). This manual can be read from be-
ginning to end, or can be used with the index as a refer-
ence manual.
● To install locks on the doors first, use the Installa-
tion Instructions for the lock model you wish to in-
stall, then use the keypad Programming Instructions
to put the locks into use.
● To set up the wireless network system and con-
nect the network to DL-Windows, go to the "Start
Here" section on page 4.
