ekey

 

 

This driver is an invisible server component and is used to connect the ekey system to the EisBaer.

 

Properties

Name

Standard

function

Scanner

0

Opens the editor for creating the scanners. An ekey controller currently supports up to 4 scanners. In the polar bear editor you can create more scanners, in case the controllers can control more scanners later. For each scanner a name and its serial number (via which the messages of the controller are assigned to a scanner) can be specified.

User names

0

Here the names for up to 100 users or fingerprints (the ekey controller can store up to 100 fingerprints) can be stored.

Local UDP Port

56000

The ekey controller sends the messages asynchronously to the computer set in the system via UDP to the port also specified in the ekey system. This port must also be set accordingly here. A back channel for communication with the controller is currently not supported by ekey.

Protocol

multi

ekey supports multiple transmission protocols. Currently the protocols "multi" and "home" are implemented. The protocol to be used must be set uniformly both in the ekey Controller and here.

Delimiter

;

The delimiter used in the protocol must be set uniformly in the controller and here.

Driver On/Off

 

This can be used to set whether the component should be active when the system is started.

Controller serial

 

Here, the serial number of the controller must be set. This is needed because there are messages that are specific to the controller and not to one of the scanners.

Debug

Output

Error messages are displayed here. The diagnostic information is displayed there, linked to the [Signal] input of the log window.

Dynamic

Folder

In the folder for Dynamice SPs, a subfolder is created for each defined scanner.

- User

Folder

In the subfolder "user" for all up to a maximum of 100 users (if only one finger is trained for each user - limitation of the controller) another folder is created in which 10 SPs (one for each possible finger) can be found. When a message is received with a detected finger, the corresponding SP is triggered.

- Digital Inputs

Folder

The subfolder "Digital Inputs" (or "Relay" in the case of the "home" protocol) contains 4 SPs which are triggered when a message is received for the corresponding digital input.

- Keys

Folder

The subfolder "Key" contains 4 SPs that are assigned in the controller to the 4 virtual keys (which can be assigned to multiple fingerprints) and are triggered when an associated message is received.

Output of all received messages.
