CHAPTER 2
Installing Hardware
The first step in setting up the System is to install the hardware components that will be used by the System (inputs, outputs, doors, readers, cameras, etc.) according to manufacturer instructions. Be sure to record data about door configurations that can be used later in naming the devices, reader groups, and areas when the devices are configured in the User Interface.
Note: Existing TruPortal 1.0 or goEntry 3.0 customers that already have all hardware installed and configured can skip this step and use the Upgrade Wizard to upgrade the System Controller. See Using the Upgrade Wizard on page 11.
After installing hardware components, connect the System Controller to a local client workstation or to Local Area Network (LAN), and then use the Installation Wizard to detect the System Controller on the network, as described in Preparing for Configuration on page 7.

System Architecture Overview
The System Controller functions as the brain of the System that receive information and sends out information. It contains the database that stores all data for devices, schedules, persons, etc., as well as the User Interface software that can be accessed from a computer via a web browser.
Various components can be connected to the System Controller, including door controllers, readers, input/output expansion modules, siren relays, strobe relays, and strike relays. These components can be considered the arms of the System; they feed data into the System and also carry out actions requested by the System.
System architecture diagram
In addition to hard-wired components, the System Controller can communicate with proprietary Internet Protocol (IP)-based Single Door Controllers (IPSDCs). Plus, companion iPad®, iPhone®, and Android™ apps enable users to remotely monitor system activity and perform basic administrative tasks, such as adding or deleting users.

Connecting to a Local Client Workstation or LAN
The System Controller can be connected directly to a local client workstation or to a Local Area Network (LAN). There are two RJ-45 100BaseT Ethernet jacks on the System Controller. Port 1 is configurable; Port 2 has a fixed IP (Internet Protocol) address, 169.254.1.200. Refer to the System Controller Quick Reference Guide to identify the jacks.
If connecting the System Controller directly to a local client workstation, use the static Ethernet jack and a Category 6 (CAT6) Ethernet cable. If connecting to a LAN, use the configurable Ethernet jack and a CAT6 Ethernet cable. Consult the site network administrator to determine how the System Controller should be configured, as discussed in Determining Network Settings on page 8.
Note: If multiple network appliances use a single network drop by means of a switch or small router, make sure there is not more than one switch or router between the System Controller and the network drop.
Installing an Enrollment Reader
If planning to use the optional enrollment reader (TP-RDR-LRN) to read credential data, install and configure the reader on a client workstation according to the manufacturer’s instructions. See Using an Enrollment Reader on page 68 for details.

TruPortal Software User Guide |
CHAPTER 3
Preparing for Configuration
After hardware devices are installed, the following steps should be performed before launching the User Interface to perform a full configuration of the System:
1.Consult with the site network administrator to decide how network settings should be configured. See Determining Network Settings on page 8.
2.If you are an existing TruPortal 1.0 or goEntry 3.0 customer and all hardware is already installed and configured, use the Upgrade Wizard to upgrade the System Controller instead of using the Installation Wizard. See Using the Upgrade Wizard on page 11.
If you are a new TruPortal user, follow the steps in Using the Installation Wizard on page 9 to:
•Detect the System Controller on the local area network.
•Change the default password for the main Administrator account to enhance security.
•Synchronize the date and time on the System Controller with the local client workstation.
•Configure the network settings of the System Controller.
3.Configure any installed IPSDCs to recognize the IP address of the System Controller before configuring the IPSDCs in the User Interface. Establishing this network connection ensures that IPSDCs will be detected when the System Controller scans for hardware changes. For more information, see Configuring IP-Based Single Door Controllers on page 106.
TruPortal Software User Guide |
7 |
Preparing for Configuration
Determining Network Settings
Before using the Installation Wizard to perform an initial configuration of the System Controller, consult with the site network administrator to determine the answers to the following questions:
•Should the IP address of the System Controller be static or dynamic? Operators will access the User Interface by typing the System Controller’s IP address into a web browser address field. If the IP address of the System Controller uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), then operators must use a virtual URL or other alias to access the System Controller. If the actual IP address assignment is changed by the network, the operators will not be able to find it.
•Should the Service Port be changed? The default Service Port for an HTTPS connection is 443; the default value for an HTTP connection is 80. Typically, this port only needs to be changed if it conflicts with an existing port used on the network. If the port is changed, users will need to append the port number to the IP address of the System Controller to log into the System (e.g., https://IPaddress:port).
Note: Ports 0 through 1024 (i.e., well-known ports) are reserved for privileged services. It is recommended that these ports not be used as the service port.
•If a static IP address will be used, what are the subnet mask, default gateway, and Domain Name Server (DNS) values for the network? This information will be needed when configuring network properties for the System Controller.
•Should a Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) connection be used? HTTPS is highly recommended to prevent unauthorized access to the System. This secure protocol encrypts the packets between the client browser and the System Controller, preventing someone from gathering user information by spying on network traffic. There may be circumstances that require non-secure HTTP. For example, if the System Controller is accessed through a Web proxy server that does not support HTTPS, then the only option is to disable HTTPS.
After installation, the System can also be configured to use a Secure Shell (SSH) connection that authenticates remote client workstations and allows remote users (including technical support representatives) to log into the System. Refer to Configuring Network Security on page 16.

TruPortal Software User Guide |
Using the Upgrade Wizard
Using the Upgrade Wizard
Existing TruPortal 1.0 or goEntry 3.0 customers can use the Upgrade Wizard to upgrade the System Controller remotely from a local client workstation from one version of the product to another version (for example, from version 1.0 to version 1.5). This process involves downloading files from the product website, and then using the Upgrade Wizard to back up data, update the firmware and core code on the System Controller, and then restore data.
Before using the Upgrade Wizard, note the following details:
IMPORTANT: Do not power cycle the System Controller (i.e. turn it off and unplug the power) during an upgrade.
IMPORTANT: Upgrading is different than updating the firmware. A firmware update only impacts the firmware, while an upgrade impacts both the firmware and the core code on the System Controller. Do not use the System Administration > Firmware Updates page to upgrade the System Controller; use the Upgrade Wizard instead.
•After an upgrade, the System Controller cannot be converted back to a previous version.
•The Upgrade Wizard is not compatible with Microsoft Windows XP.
•(Recommended) Run the Upgrade Wizard directly from the physical TruPortal DVD, as opposed to a mounted ISO image.
•Although the Upgrade Wizard provides an option to back up data, an extra backup file can be created as a precaution (see Create a Backup File on page 88). Configuration settings can also be backed up (see Saving and Restoring Custom Settings on page 89). To save an historical record of events, use the Import/Export Wizard to export events in CSV format.
•If upgrading from goEntry to TruPortal, card format information will be preserved.
•Make sure that all users are logged out of the System before using the Upgrade Wizard.
•Make sure that any backup and restore processes are finished.
•The upgrade will be faster and more reliable if the System Controller uses a static IP address. (To change this setting, see Configure Network Settings on page 17.) If a dynamic IP address is used, the IP address may change during the upgrade and the process will stop. If this occurs, use the Installation Wizard to obtain the new IP address and then restart the Upgrade Wizard.
•A [Finish] button appears on many wizard pages; click it to stop the upgrade, if necessary.
To use the Upgrade Wizard:
1.Log into the product web site and download the following files to a local client workstation:
•The ISO image of the latest version of the Utilities disc.
•The NGP.bin source file that will be used to update the firmware.
IMPORTANT: Do not change the name of the downloaded files.
2.Use a third-party application to mount (i.e., add) the downloaded ISO image to the local client workstation.
3.In Windows Explorer, navigate to the \PanelUpgradeWizard folder in the ISO image.
4.Double-click PanelUpgradeWizard.exe.
The wizard will create a folder called \<local documents>\PanelUpgradeWizard that includes two subfolders: \Backups and \Logs.
5.When the Introduction page appears, select a Language and click [Next].

10.On the Backup page, type the path where data will be backed up, or browse to its location.
Note: Although the Create Backup File check box can be cleared to skip backing up data, it is recommended that users leave this check box selected to back up data before an upgrade. This option is intended for factory use only.
IMPORTANT: If no backup file is created while using the Upgrade Wizard, photos will not be preserved and will need to be restored from an earlier backup.
11.Click [Backup].
12.When a “Backup Successful” message appears, click [Next].
13.On the next page, click [Firmware Upgrade].
A summary of the Upgrade Wizard’s progress appears. This process may take five to ten minutes. Red squares will appear next to any errors that occurred.
14.When the upgrade is complete, click [Next].
15.If data was backed up in step 11, the Restore page displays the location to which files were backed up.
a.Click [Restore] to load the backed up data back onto the System Controller.
b.When the “Restore Successful” message appears, click [Next] to verify that the upgrade occurred on the Upgrade Results page.
16.When the Upgrade Results page appears, click [Finish] to exit the wizard.
17.If a goEntry System was upgraded to TruPortal, review the card format descriptions on the System Administration > Card Formats page and update them, if necessary. (Card format descriptions are upgraded in English only.)

The Home page displays several wizards that can be used to quickly add persons, credentials, access levels, schedules, and holidays. Click a wizard icon and follow the onscreen prompts to add new items, or refer to the relevant section of this document for step-by-step instructions.
To log out of the System later, click the Logout icon in the top-right portion of the User Interface.
Setting the Date and Time
The System supports time synchronization with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. This option, if enabled in both the User Interface and a DVR/NVR, keeps the DVR/NVR and the System synchronized in time. Without this, System time may drift relative to DVR/NVR time which can impact schedules and cause difficulty in retrieving video related to an access event.
Note the following details about NTP time synchronization:
•The NTP client will attempt synchronization every hour.
•To use this option, the System Controller must be able to access the NTP server via User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port 123. If this port is not accessible, the System time will not synchronize with the NTP server, and “NTP Sync Failed” events will be logged. Consult with the site network administrator.
•If the System time is manually changed to be within one minute prior to the start of a schedule assigned to a door, the scheduled door mode will take effect immediately.
To set the date and time:
1.Select System Administration > System Settings.

Configuring Network Security
The Network Configuration tab of the System Administration > System Settings page displays various network settings and can be used to assign a security certificate and configure network properties, including secure browsing.
Create a Certificate Signing Request
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is an encryption technology that protects data being transmitted between your web server and users’ web browsers to prevent eavesdropping, data tampering, etc. The use of SSL on a website is usually indicated by a padlock icon in web browsers, but can also be indicated by a green address bar.
To enable SSL in the System, create a Certificate Signing Request (also known as a CSR or a certification request), submit it to a Certificate Authority, and then import the signed certificate. A self-signed certificate can also be installed. This block of encrypted text is generated on the server that the certificate is used on; it contains information such as the organization name, common name (i.e. domain name), locality, and country.
To create a Certificate Signing Request:
1.Select System Administration > System Settings.
2.Click the Network Configuration tab.
3.Click [Create Certificate Signing Request].
The Certificate Signing Request dialog box appears.
4.Type the requested information and click [Generate].
Note: Type either the IP address or the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the server in the Common Name field. If the panel is configured to use a DHCP-assigned IP address, then it is highly recommended that the DHCP server be configured to always assign this IP address to the panel. Otherwise each time the panel is assigned a different IP address, a new certificate will need to be generated and installed.
The Certificate Signing Request (CSR) text appears in the text box on the right side of the dialog box.
5.To use a self-signed certificate, click [Install Self-Signed Certificate]. The System Controller will reboot automatically.
6.To use a signed certificate:
a.Copy CSR text and save to a local file to send to a certificate authority.
b.Close the Certificate Signing Request dialog box.
c.See Import a Security Certificate on page 16.
Import a Security Certificate

c.Type the Default Gateway.
d.Type the DNS Server.
7.(Optional) Change the Service Port for the System Controller.
Note: The default Service Port for an HTTPS connection is 443; the default value for an HTTP connection is 80. Ports 0 through 1024 (i.e., well-known ports) are reserved for privileged services. It is recommended that these ports not be used as the Service Port.
If the port is changed to a different value, communicate that information to users because they will need to append the port number to the IP address of the System Controller (e.g., https://IPaddress:port) to log back in after the System reboots.
8.Select Enable HTTPS Connection to use a secure hypertext protocol.
IMPORTANT: HTTPS is highly recommended to prevent unauthorized access to the System.
9.If the HTTPS setting was changed, clear the browser cache, especially if using Firefox or Chrome.
10.To use an SSH connection that authenticates remote client workstations and allows remote users (including technical support representatives) to log into the System, select Enable SSH Connection.
Note: Refer to Configuring Security on page 18 to learn about setting a password for an SSH service account.

Configuring the System
11.Click [Save] to accept the network configuration changes.
A message will appear to indicate that the System Controller must be rebooted to apply the changes to the network configuration.
12.Click [Save Changes].
The System will reboot. Any users that are currently logged in will lose their connection and must log in again. If the IP address of the System Controller changed, update any IPSDCs in the System to recognize the new IP address. See Using the ICT to Configure IPSDCs on page 109.
Configuring Security
The Security tab of the System Administration > System Settings page can be used to configure certain aspects pertaining to the physical security of a facility.
PIN Codes
The System can be configured for access with a credential only, a credential and Personal Identification Number (PIN), PIN only, or PIN or credential. Requiring people to present a badge (credential) and type a PIN code provides added security by preventing access with a found or stolen badge. Readers can be configured to Credential Only, Credential and PIN, PIN Only, or PIN or Credential based on schedules. (See Scheduling Door and Reader Behavior on page 49.) Note: In PIN Only mode, all PINS in the system must be unique.
Max PIN Length
PINs can be 4, 6, or 9 digits in length.
Max PIN Attempts
Allows person a set number of chances to enter their PINs correctly.
PIN Lock Out Time
If a person enters an incorrect PIN too many times, the credential ID will be prevented from access at that reader for the length of time specified by this option. After the Lock Out Time has elapsed, the credential ID will have access privileges restored.
Door Fallback Mode
Credential information is stored on the System Controller. If a dual door controller loses communication with the System Controller, credentials scanned at a reader cannot be verified. In such a case, the door controller must validate access requests if anyone is to enter the facility.
Note: IPSDCs have a separate fallback mode.
Input EOL Terminations
Doors can be wired to detect if they are open or closed, forced entry, and tampering. Such a door is said to be supervised. A door without such detection circuits is said to be unsupervised, even if it has a reader and door strike or magnetic lock. For supervised doors, this option describes the type of resistor(s) used and how the circuit is wired. There are two main types that are monitored: 1,000 Ohm and 4,700 Ohm circuits. These can be wired with dual resistors, or with a single resistor wired in series or parallel relative to the door sensor.
Note: IPSDCs support only 1K/Dual supervision, as configured by setting switches on the panel. Refer to the IP-based Single Door Controller Quick Reference for details.
