Overview

IXG-DM7-HIDA entrance stations have a variety of options that can be utilized by guests. To begin configuring a station, click on its name in the Stations section.

Click Entrance Settings to display the options.

There are five features available:

Door Release Keypad: Allows residents to enter a code to unlock the door.

Call By Unit Number: Call a unit by entering its number.

Search By Name: Type in a resident or unit name to find the unit to call.

Call By Directory: Displays an individual call button for each unit.

Door Release QR Code: Residents can send visitors a QR code to scan to unlock the door

For each feature, click the blue slider beneath to enable or disable it. Click anywhere else in the box to set an enabled feature as the default view.

Tip: A view must be enabled before configuring its settings.

Two features have additional options that can be configured.

Door Release Keypad: Enable or disable Scramble Pad. This shuffles the numbers each time the keypad is displayed, making it more difficult for observers to guess the codes.

Call By Unit Number: Change the text to display “Enter Call Code” instead of the regular title. This does not change the functionality in any way.

Tip: If these additional options are not displayed, return to the main page and update the entrance station’s firmware. See the multi-tenant setup article for more details: https://www.aiphone.com/kb/remote-management-guide-initial-set-up-multi-tenant/

Once all settings have been adjusted, click Save Changes in the top right. The settings will not be pushed to the station until they are uploaded in the last step in this article.

Configuring the Directory

From this page, enable Call By Directory if it hasn’t been yet, then click Configure Directory.

A pop-up window will appear, showing the available units in the station’s address book. Either click Select All or click the individual units to add them to the Call Directory List to the right, or click the X symbol next to a unit to remove it. The units can be reordered in the Call Directory List by dragging and dropping them. Once everything is configured, click Save.

Configuring Access Codes

To set codes for the keypad or adjust QR code settings, navigate back to the main page by clicking the back arrow in the top left corner. From the main screen, click Units. Select the desired unit.

Click View Unit to the right.

Click Access Codes to the left.

This page will display every entrance station in the unit’s address book. One code can be applied to them all by entering it in the Shared Access Code bar and clicking Apply To All. Otherwise, enter them in the section for each individual station.

To allow mobile apps in the unit to send Guest Passes to visitors, click Enable QR Access under the entrance station.

Tip: No matter how many tenants, stations, or mobile apps are in a unit, each unit is only assigned one shared code.

Once settings are finished, click Save Changes. Navigate back to the main page and repeat these steps for each unit.

Uploading Settings

To apply the settings to the stations and apps, click Upload Station Settings on the main page. If mobile apps are used on the site, also click Save Mobile App Settings.

With this, the entrance stations will be ready to use.
