We recommand, if you use the devices outsite, then let it running permanently. Both in terms of temperature as well as condensation, it is recommended to not switch off devices which are used outdoors.

View recessed Installation in A front plate / Mounting plate .

The connection area is set up to the top of the apparatus, so that no water coming from above (e.g., rain) could penetrate. Only jet water from below would be a problem. Should additional conditions beyond the normal weather cause the water to come from below, the terminals can be sealed to the wall when mounting. For the EVO terminals it is advisable to mount the units on the heel of the front shell. This would sink the entire back of the device with the connections and in the inaccessible area. In order to allow such mounting, a mounting surface must be provided by the customer. For example, In boxes with front panel. In the case of bell systems / mailboxes / barriers, mounting plates are usually already available which can be used for this purpose.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 10 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

4.3. Kompatibilität Compatibility

The compatibility must be observed urgently between:

- Datafox devices and the device firmware

- Device firmware and device setup

- Device firmware and communication DLL

- Communication DLL and DatafoxStudioIV

- DatafoxStudioIV and device setup

4.3.1. Firmware File Archive (*.dfz)

Description

Device files (*.hex) of the MasterIV devices are delivered in a common firmware file archive. It has the file extension DFZ (stands for Datafox Zip). Now simply the firmware file archives (*.dfz) are indicated instead of the device files (*.hex). This applies to the DatafoxStudioIV and the DLL. The indication of device files (*.hex) is still possible.

Function of the Archive

The transfer routine of the device file selects the right file from the firmware file archive on the basis of the hardware options available in the device. Thus, it is guaranteed that all hardware components available in the device are supported by the corresponding firmware.

Manual Selection of a File

If you do not want to integrate the archive in your installation, you have the possibility to add single device files from the archive to the installation. The file format of the firmware file archive is ZIP. Hence, you can open the archive with every standard ZIP-program. Via the entry "Open With" in the context menu you can select an appropriate program for opening the file. If necessary, you can call up a program combined with this file format to open the file by renaming the file from DFZ to ZIP. In the archive you find a file named "Inhalt.pdf"; it contains information which file (*.hex) of the archive matches your device. Extract the desired device file (*.hex) and rename it if necessary. A renaming of a file is possible at any time, because all information are in the file itself. You can state the device file extracted before as device file in DatafoxStudioIV and at calling the DLL function. It is still tested if the file can be loaded into the chosen device before the transfer takes place.

4.3.2. Datafox Devices and Device Firmware

Each Datafox device has an electronic flat module. The module has specific hardware equipment concerning the options (e.g. mobile radio, WLAN, fingerprint,...). Due to technical conditions, different options are mutually exclusive. Currently, not all hardware options can be supported in one firmware file due to limited program memory. This means that each device with specific hardware options needs a proper firmware to support the hardware options by the software.

Caution:

Hardware generation V 3 is supported from version 04.02.00.x onwards. The DatafoxStudioIV is compatible up to and including firmware version 04.01.x.y. Older versions 04.00.x.y are not supported any more.

4.3.3. Device Firmware and Device Setup

The firmware (operating system) of the device and the device setup (*.aes data file = application program) form a unit. By the device setup, the runtime behavior of the device (the firmware) is determined. This means the response of the device to input events by the user or the environment (e.g. digital inputs). In principle, only those functions of the device are executed that are supported by the firmware and defined via the setup. Prior to the productive commencement, you should there-

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 11 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

fore test each setup with the corresponding device or on a device with the same hardware options and firmware.

4.3.4. Device Firmware and Communications DLL

A firmware supports certain functions, dependent on the hardware options. The communication DLL is the interface between the firmware and the DatafoxStudioIV or your processing software. Therefore, the firmware must always have the same or a lower version number as the communication DLL.



Note:

If your application uses a newer version of the DLL than the firmware does, you can only use functions that are supported by the firmware. Otherwise, you will receive an error message (e.g. function not supported) which has to be analyzed.

4.3.5. Communications DLL and DatafoxStudioIV



Note:

The DatafoxStudioIV and the communication DLL are developed and released as a bundle. Therefore, they have to be used as a bundle. A newer version of DatafoxStudioIV does not work with an older DLL.

4.3.6. DatafoxStudioIV and Device Setup

With the DatafoxStudioIV, you create a device setup (application program) for the Datafox device. That means that in the setup only those functions were defined which were available in the DatafoxStudioIV version at the time of the setup creation. The DatafoxStudioIV you use for opening a device setup may thus only be newer but never older than the DatafoxStudioIV version you used to create the device setup.



Note:

The updates are always available for download on our homepage www.datafox.de.

Caution:

When new devices are delivered, the latest firmware is loaded on the devices. If you wish to work with an older firmware version, please perform a downgrade. Please observe the compatibility notes in the release notes of the respective firmware version.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 12 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

The data file <Device name>, Software Versionen Stand <version number>.pdf shows which functions are supported by which software release. You will find the file on the product CD. Please also follow the instructions given in the chapters of the manual.

4.3.7. Update / Downgrade

A firmware update or downgrade is a very sensitive process. Possibly, a reset of the main communication to RS232 may occur. In any case, consider the information regarding the compatibility in the software version list.

Firmware Update

Caution:

Before starting a firmware update, please check on the basis of the software version list whether there are any version dependencies that must be observed.

For example: when changing from Version 04.00.xx to version 04.01.xx, at least version

04.00.23.769 or higher must be present in order to run the update to version 04.01.xx successfully.

Firmware Downgrade

A firmware downgrade is not recommended. We are constantly working towards improving the software/firmware; all functionalities are still included in new versions. New software always offers better functionalities and possible bugs are fixed.

Caution:

When performing a firmware downgrade the firmware has to be transmitted to the device twice. This has technical reasons. Errors shown on the display of the device after the first transfer can be ignored.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 13 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

5. Device



Note:

It has to be taken care of a suitable protection from direct sunlight because the synthetic materials are not 100% UV resistant. Fading simply is an optical defect which does not restrict the function of the device.

Caution:

Pleas keep in mind that MasterIV terminals use a flash memory. According to the manufacturer each memory sector (512 byte) can be written to a maximum of 100,000 times. The firmware of the terminals distributes the access to the memory sectors, this technique is called wear levelling. Bad blocks in case of write or read failures are not used anymore. However, despite this technique it is not advisable to write the memory too frequently. The application should initialize a new list transfer only after a change of the list data but not cyclically.

Keep in mind the message - FlashService - in the display of the device. It means that the live time of the flash memory according to the manufacturer instruction will be reached soon. Then the device has to be sent to Datafox for service.

5.1. Commissioning

On delivery, the device is fully functional and configured with a demo setup so that you can test the input immediately. After establishing the power supply the device will switch on automatically.

5.5.3. Modules for devices of hardware V4

5.5.3.1. Description of the various extension modules

The Datafox devices of the generation V4 are particularly distinguished by the variable configuration of individual modules. Depending on the device, a certain number of module locations are available. These can be individually equipped with the individual available modules. Depending on the size of the module, the individual modules occupy one or two module locations. Thus, e.g. the GPRS module (mobile radio) requires 2 module slots and one relay module only needs one module slot.

5.6.5.2. Communication TCP / IP via wLAN / Wifi

This overview shows you which WLAN methods are supported.

Not supported is WPA (Predecessor of WPA2).

5 GHz connections are not supported and no mixed operation 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz. Authentication via WPA2 Enterprise according to IEEE 802.1x is not supported.

Attention:

We cannot test every available Acsess-Point on the market. Therefore, it is not possible for us to guarantee a connection to any AP.

When setting the encryption AES or WEP, only one type is used at a time. The setting AES+WEP means for some access points that AES encryption is performed first and then additionally encrypted with WEP. In this case, only set AES.

Attention:

A search for a new access point requires a lot of energy and drains the battery. Avoid a continuous search for an access point when the device is operating at the limit by generously selecting the pause between scans for new access points (80-120s). At most access points there is the possibility to set the "Beacon Interval". The higher this is set, the less power the TimeboyIV needs. Recommendation: Beacon interval >300ms.

The entire file with all settings is transferred to the device. If the device has a display, the location can be selected in the Bios menu -> Communication -> WLAN. Each location has its own configuration for the WLAN connection. The user therefore has no insight into the dial-in parameters at the various locations.



Hint:

With automatic selection of the configuration / location, the first attempt is always made to establish a connection with the default schema.

Select the configuration or location for which you want to set the WLAN parameters.

If you check this box, the battery life will be significantly increased if the device is operated with a rechargeable battery. Important

for TimeboyIV!

All the settings required for an access point can be made here.

If a key is stored, this will be displayed.

A scan (search) for access points is only carried out after a disconnection after this set time. Please note the following Attention Box!

Enter the IP address for the device here. This must be the same for every location.

► View the SMS on the display. The sam action you find in the „DFCComSendMessage“ or

the answer via HTTP.

► to order an service connection (the same how in the HTTP- answer) ► start in the signal processing an input sequence ► Output an acoustic signal

Condition to receive a SMS is a KEY include in the device an in the text from the SMS.

The Key fort he device can set in the GPRS/HTTP .ini file.

Textmassage

The keyword must be included in the SMS-text is:

message=text1 text line2  line3 etc. &delay=10&key=12345

The 10, is the time how long to display the message. After the character  gives a line break (carriage return). If not a key in the device, you can use the serial number as a key (default setting). Save you an empty Key, then receive the device every SMS. The last received SMS can you see in the Bios-Menu under „general information Bios (Menu)“.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 61 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

Service-connection (active-mode)

The content of the SMS is similar to that of HTTP-Answer from the WEB-Server. Actually supported are 3 keywords: service, host and port. The keyword must follow an “=” character with corresponding value. The individual fields are separate with the character “&”. With the KEY „service=1“, open the device a Service-connection. The connection Parameters (Host, Port) are saved in the “active.ini” file from the device. An option is, to give the device the Parameters for the connection via SMS (->host=, port=). Then use the device this parameters from the SMS and not the saved from the “active.ini” (active mode).

“&service=2“

Coution ! this funktion first supportet with the hardware version V4 GPRS(Mobilfunk) and FW 04.03.06.XX.

When using parameter 2, the service connection is established immediately.

a) Connection to the server with the saved parameters in the „active mode“. b) and c) Connection on Port 8000 to the server (www.datafox.de/123.123.123.123). d) Connection to the server “www.datafox.de” and port “4711”.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 62 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

Start an input sequence in the device signal processing

The keyword, if you need in the SMS is:

ek=name&key=ja (the name of the input sequence).

The name of the input sequence must match completely, otherwise it will not run. Receive the device an SMS with this text, then start the input sequence.

If save a SMS Key, the must included the SMS this Key (&key=ja). With this are many different variants are possible.

Here some example:

Open a door via SMS.

Control a technical system and send a SMS in trouble:

Is the level of regulation from the system not correct then gives a report via SMS. The Datafox MasterIV is here not the regulator. He gives only a report in trouble. If necessary, a procedure also can be done.

The basis of the access control II are tables. They store all information about the hardware configuration of the access control system, access right of the employees, periods of time (activation, blocking times, holidays,...). The tables are connected as follows:

The tables are created as text files. For an easier administration you can add comments within the files.

When adding comments, you have to notice that in a comment line no field values can be given and that the comment line has to start with a semicolon.

The table Reader.txt might look like this:

Holiday ControlIt is now possible for ZK-II to consider holidays at switching the relay. In order to

achieve compatibility with older versions, the function Consider Holidays for the Time Control of Relays has to be activated at the setup page Access Control 2. In the column Group, you specify the

Action ID of the switched relay output instead of a Group ID. Thus, it is not necessary to alter the

table structure of the holiday list. The column RefTime provides the time model applicable that day. A minus sign must be inserted in front of the Action ID in order that the MasterIV terminal can differentiate between Action ID and Group ID. As a result, these Action IDs must be three-digit numbers.

Example:

In the action list above, the door module with the ID 12 was assigned the time model 2 which switches port 1 of the module. If separate holiday control has been activated in the setup, time model 2 is not applied to the relay output at May 1, 2012, but time model 5.

Extended Parameterization ZK-II The value range of the parameter 'ActiveGeneral' has been extended by the value 8. Additionally to

the general permission (value 9), a PIN request is executed - if defined so for the user and activated for the reader. Furthermore, at both configurations of the ID cards with the ActiveGeneral value 8 and 9, the validity period of the ID card is checked.

For ZK-II the operation modes online, offline or online/offline after time-out are available. In online mode, configuration lists stored in the device are not considered. A data record is read from the server, analyzed and an action triggered. In offline mode, the configuration lists of the terminal are used to grant or deny access to a person. Online / offline after time-out is a combination. If the server is unavailable, the terminal can decide on basis of its lists whether to grant access to a person or not.

Manual Datafox Evo 4.3 Page 66 Date: 27.12.2017 V 04.03.09.XX

Timing of the Digital Outputs for the MasterIV Device Series:

It is possible to time the digital outputs of the MasterIV device series via tables. Thus, for example turning down the heating system at night, a buzzer control and much more can be realized.

The following tables must be configured:

► Action ► Reader ► Time

Description: Each action that is to be activated must be entered in the table Action. The table Action refers to the

tables Reader and Time. In the table Reader the module is provided on which the relay or the Open Collector is to be switched. The reference to the table Time indicates when the switch is to be done. If start and stop time are entered, the relay is switched on when exceeding the start time and switched off when exceeding the stop time. The entry of the duration Elapse in the table Action is ignored. If the relay is only to be activated for a few seconds, e.g. for a buzzer control, the stop time has to be set on "‘00 : 00"’. If the start time is exceeded, the respective output will be switched for X seconds (RefTime in Action table). The entry Elapse in the table Action now indicates the on-time.

Example:

► A buzzer is to be activated for 3 seconds from Monday to Friday at 10.00 am and 4 pm

(16.00). The buzzer is controlled by the internal relay of the PZE-MasterIV.

► The heating system is to be set to the "‘day mode"’ at 07.00 am and to the "night mode" at 7

pm (19.00) on all weekdays. The corresponding relay is at the door module with the bus number 2.

5.7.3.1. Connecting of PHG-reader

In order to connect the PHG modules, please note the PHG documentation on the Datafox CD: <Datafox-Geräte- Datafox-Zutritt-Module PHG *.pdf>

In the PHG documents for the single modules, the pin assignment and configuration via the DIP switches are described. In order to carry out an access control with theEVO 4.3 the option "‘access"’ has to be integrated (Datafox art. no. 105201). The following figure shows the possibilities for connecting the PHG devices to a. The following figure shows the possibilities for connecting the PHG devices to a EVO 4.3 for access control.

The bus number of the module is set via the DIP switches 1 - 4. The DIP switch 5 always must be set to "ON". The DIP switches 6 and 8 always must be set to "OFF". With the DIP switch 7 = "ON" the RS485 bus is terminated at the last module, otherwise always "‘OFF"’. If a door-opener is to be controlled additionally via a relay, the IO-box must be used. With the IO-box two digital outputs as relays are available.
