except the event logs. If you add the device just for demonstration or testing of the system, there is no need to tick it.
(2) After editing, click [OK] and the system will try connecting the current device:
If connection is successful, it will read the corresponding extended parameters of the device. At this time, if the access control
panel type selected by the user does not meet the corresponding parameters of the actual device, the system will remind the
user. If the user clicks [OK] to save, it will save the actual access control panel type of the device.
Extended Device Parameters: includes serial number, device type, firmware version number, auxiliary input quantity, auxiliary
output quantity, door quantity, device fingerprint version, and reader quantity.
If device connection fails while the user still needs to add the device to the system, corresponding device parameters and
extended parameters such as the serial number, will not be written into the system and settings such as anti-pass back and
linkage will not be possible. These settings can be created only when the device is reconnected successfully and
corresponding parameters are acquired.

access control levels settings (including access control group, anti-pass back, interlock settings, linkage settings, etc.) from
