After choosing from the three lists, click on Apply, the application will be restarted, you have to wait for the start-up process to be completed. After logging in again, this screen appears.

Note

If you adjust the IP address in the configuration, you must also align the URL in the browser to the new IP address.

After the input fields have been filled in, you can click on Next to reach the next page of the wizard.

The current WEAC firmware is displayed on the next page of the wizard. If necessary, you can down or upgrade the firmware.

The firmware version for each unit is listed as a label next to the activation button. The navigation options are deactivated during the update process. The update process takes about 3 minutes for both units.

After checking the WEAC firmware, the swing doors are configured. It is automatically checked whether the minimum requirements regarding the firmware are met. You will be informed on the surface if the firmware has to be updated first.

If the requirements are met, you can select the swing doors and apply them to the gate.

The next step is to configure the LED player for both units (Master and Slave) accomplished. If necessary, you can adjust the parameters. If the status is ready for use, no modifications are necessary.

The current firmware of the LED player is shown again on the last page of the assistant. Optionally, you can end the configuration with a restart. However, this is only necessary if IP addresses or interface information have changed.

After clicking Finish, you can now log in again with a known credentials and work with the Galaxy Gate. If you log in again with the user installer, you get a graphical overview, can find out about the status of the access control and can carry out updates if necessary. This completes the setup of the access control.

You can now log in with a service account and carry out further tests.

Signals

The information in this section is based on FMCU software v2.3.7 and WEAC version 32.14.

Technical Background

The FMCU software is based on a customized UNIX operating system, which has been produced using the Yocto Project. Only the required services are activated in the operating system. The optimal support packages for the CPU type are taken into account when creating the operating system. These so-called Board Support Packages (BSP) are provided by the hardware manufacturers and allow optimal and efficient utilization of the hardware resources.

FunctionsFunktionen

In principle, the functions are mapped via the signal processing. The signals are generated by different sources including:

• Light bar
• Light sensor
• Ceiling sensor
• Other

The location of the sensors is shown in the figure below. In each half of the frame there is a so-called "inner zone" and an "outer zone". When passing through an access control, a signal flow diagram is generated, which is used to map the following functions. The light bar serves as a source for several signals and is also divided into different areas. The following signals are installed in the standard configuration

Grundsätzlich werden die Funktionen über die Signalverabeitung abgebildet. Die Signale werden durchunterschiedliche Quellen erzeugt. Dazu gehören:

• Lichtleiste
• Lichtsensor
• Deckensensor
• Sonstige

Die Anordnung der Sensoren ist in der nachfolgenden Abbildung dargestellt. In jeder Rahmenhälfte befindet sich eine sogenannte "Inner-Zone" und eine "Outer-Zone". Bei Durchschreiten einer Zutrittskontrolle wird ein Signalflussdiagramm erzeugt, welches für die Abbildung der nachfolgenden Funktionen genutzt wird.

Die Lichtleiste dienst als Quelle für mehrere Signale und ist ebenfalls in unterschiedliche Bereiche unterteilt.

In der Standardkonfiguration sind folgende Signale konfiguriert.

Signalname	Rahmenhälfte
Entry Confirmation	Eingang
Entry Gate Sensor [U1_E2]	Eingang
Entry Outer LightBar	Eingang
Exit Inner LightBar	Eingang
Free Entry [1000]	Eingang
Lock Entry [0100]	Eingang
Open Entry [U1_U2_E3]	Eingang
Open Entry 70% [U1_E9]	Eingang
Remote Open Entry	Eingang
Service Entry [1100]	Eingang
Emergency Remote	Ausgang
Emergency [U1_U2_E8]	Ausgang
Entry Inner LightBar	Ausgang
Exit Confirmation	Ausgang
Exit Gate Sensor [U2_E5]	Ausgang
Exit Outer LightBar	Ausgang
Free Exit [0010]	Ausgang
Lock Exit [0001]	Ausgang
Open Exit [U1_U2_E4]	Ausgang
Open Exit 70% [U2_E9]	Ausgang
Remote Open Exit	Ausgang
Service Exit [0011]	Ausgang

Schliessfahrt mit reduzierter Geschwindigkeit

Diese Funktion ist für Signale zutreffend, die die Eigenschaft CloseGate > 0 aufweisen. Bei den betroffenen Signalen muss der Wert Close gate speed, % * mit einem Wert zwischen 10 und 100% definiert werden. Es besteht somit die Möglichkeit, für unterschiedliche Durchgangszenarien entsprechende Schließgeschwindigkeiten zu definieren. Der Standardwert ist auf 100% festgelegt. In der Standardkonfiguration erfüllen folgende Signale diese Voraussetzung.

Signal	Parameter	Wert
Tailgating watcher	Close gate speed, % *	100%
Entry Gate Sensor [U1_E2]	Close gate speed, % *	100%
Exit Gate Sensor [U2_E5]	Close gate speed, % *	100%
Entry Outer LightBar	Close gate speed, % *	100%
Exit Outer LightBar Exit	Close gate speed, % *	100%

Durchgangsbestätigung

Diese Funktion setzt einen Impuls mit einer einstellbaren Zeitdauer im Anschlussboard für den Anschluss A8.Zusätzlich wird erfolgte Durchgang in der Statistik berücksichtigt.

Koffertrolleyerkennung

Diese Funktion ist aktiv wenn bei folgenden Signalen die aufgeführten Parameter gesetzt werden. Es bedeutet, dass eine Personen mit einem hinter sich herziehenden Koffer ohne Störung durch vorzeitig schleißende Schwenktüren passieren kann.

Signal	Parameter	Wert
Middle Gate Sensor [U1_E1]	Protect from force close	true
Inner LightBar	Protect from force close	true

Mehrfachöffnung

Diese Funktion ist nur dann gültig, wenn ein Leser für die Eingangsrichtung eingerichtet worden ist. Es bedeutet, dass mehrere Personen in einer Reihe nacheinander den Eingang passieren können, ohne dass die Schwenktür zwischenzeitlich geschlossen wird. Es muss von jeder Person ein Ticket am Kartenleser am Eingang präsentiert werden. Nur bei erfolgreicher Validierung bleiben die Schwenktüren geöffnet. Diese Funktion ist aktiv wenn bei folgenden Signalen die aufgeführten Parameter gesetzt werden.

Signal	Parameter	Wert
Middle Gate Sensor [U1_E1]	Protect from force close	true
Inner LightBar	Protect from force close	true
Entry Outer LightBar	Protect from force close	true
Entry Gate Sensor [U1_E2]	Protect from force close	true
Tailgating watcher	Aktiviert	false

Tipps zum Arbeiten

Wenn man die Übersicht bei der Konfiguration der Signale verloren hat, kann man über die Funktion

Reset to Default

einen definierten Ausgangszustand wiederherstellen.

Hinweis

Wenn man die Funktion "Rest to Default" anwendet, gehen die aktuellen Einstellungen verloren. Man kann bei Bedarf vor diesem Schritt die aktuelle Konfiguration exportieren.
