These files are located in the System Parameters link under the System -> Administration tab.  These files can be edited using the in-browser text field provided by clicking on the file or backed up by clicking on Download and edited with a text editor locally then uploaded back to MESH. Once the files are uploaded back to MESH the Enterphone, the server must be restarted using the Reboot link at the bottom of the Utilities page or by checking the Reboot after save option on the Edit page.

Main and Peer Configuration (Sync

...

Enterphone Units)

This form of replication only copies the Suite and User data to a remote panel to be loaded on the display.  This does not allow for a remote system to be working as a backup unit for bridge communication.

Main peer integration with a panel is intended to only be for one site, where the unit is on the same network.  Deploying multiple mesh panels across multiple sites is not support in Primis 9.1.  Please see Mesh Enterphone and Primis Application Note (AN9019) for more details.

Main and peer configuration creates a link between two MESH Enterphone units. This can be multiple MESH Enterphone Panels to a single Primis server or multiple Primis servers to one Primis server. The Main servers automatically start sharing data once a peer establishes communication. More information about main and peer configuration can be obtained from the Main

To Setup a Main and a Peer

...

  1. Open the siteEngine.ini using the instructions from System Parameters.

  2. Locate the line MainPeers=

  3. Add the IP address of the main server. For example, MainPeers=192.168.123.101

  4. Locate the line SystemName=

  5. Add an appropriate name for the peer. For example, SystemName=FrontPanel

  6. Save the siteEngine.ini

  7. Restart the MESH Enterphone peer system

Once the configuration is done, connect to the Main server and log in. At this point there should be a button labeled with the names of Peer devices along the top of the Administration System’s interface. If there are any changes that need to be made to non-common data, these buttons can be used to connect to the Peer devices. If the button is absent from the Main Server or Panel, check over the configuration that was made up to this point then log out and log back in.

This step could take a long time if the database is large.

Business Administrator Management

MESH Enterphone Panels can be programmed to divide buildings into multiple businesses. Each business can control its own controlled area without affecting other businesses or areas. In order to divide buildings into businesses, controlled areas that will control a business’ physical access need to be created. When adding a new business to the Administration Software, areas that are controlled by that business can be selected. Then admin users can be added to be part of that business.
