System Card Format Support

The Enterphone Server has a built-in set of Card Format Definitions that determine how Wiegand data is being translated (e.g. Wiegand 75 bit, FIP-201 200 bit26 bit).  Upon card swipe, Enterphone performs a sequential look-up of this list to find the best fitting definition.

...

In case no suitable definition is available, use the Default Card Format drop-down list to select a default format. To narrow down the search, type the card format, and it will list the results. You can click on the required card format directly. Please note that the card format definition in Enterphone is highly customizable. Please feel free to contact Identiv Hirsch Technical Support (support@identivprimissupport@hirschsecure.com) should you require a custom format.

Main and peer configuration creates a link between two or more Enterphone units. The Enterphone panel can also be peered to a Primis instance server or Enterphone cube server. The Main servers automatically start copying data once a peer establishes communication.

...

  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
    Note: If the Main unit is a Primis instance server or Enterphone cube server, please set MQPeer=yes. Otherwise, for Main/Peer network containing only Enterphone panels, set MQPeer=no

  4. Save the siteEngine.ini

  5. Restart the Enterphone peer system

Primis/Enterphone V12 updates

Enterphone Mobile App Enhancements

V12 Enterphone can make SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) calls to Hirsch’s Enterphone Mobile App. Once enabled in the license, the enterphone panel will be assigned a unique SIP user account.

To verify the SIP account registration status

  1. Go to System->Enterphone->SIP 

  2. The SIP account name is shown under “User”

  3. Look for “Registration Status”

  4. If the status is “Not Registered”, click “Register” to register the SIP account.

    Image Added

  5. Once registration is done; statuses such as Registration, Ping Response and Query Response should show “Ok”. Should any one of the three statuses fail, please contact Hirschsupport.

    Image Added

Differences in SIP-Enabled Panels

  1. Each tenant is entitled to a SIP account. 

  2. Once a suite is assigned to a tenant/user that owns a SIP account, that suite cannot be shared by other tenants. However, suites can be shared among non-SIP users.

  3. The tenant can register his/her Enterphone Mobile App with the SIP account’s QR code which is available from Primis Web Admin.

  4. For SIP/Enterphone Mobile equipped tenants, SIP accounts will be the primary number to calls. The regular suite phone number will be the alternate number;  that is, when SIP calls would not go through, the Enterphone panel will dial the regular number. The regular alternate number under suites will be ignored in this case.

  5. Note that “snapshots” will not be available once SIP is enabled. This is because WebCam is occupied by the SIP client on the Panel.

To create a SIP account for Enterphone Mobile

  1. Go to Users

  2. Either create or edit an existing user

  3. Click “Create SIP Account”

  4. Once a SIP account is created, the account name will appear along with a delete account button, a QR code button and an email button:

  2. To enroll, start the Mobile App and click “Sign Up”

    Image Added

    Image Added
  4. Once successfully enrolled, all Enterphone panels under the same customer account will be listed:

...

  1. Alternatively, administrators can send SIP account registration emails to end users by clicking the “Email QR Code” button:

...

Once this email is received by the end user’s mobile device; clicking the link in the email can register the device to the Hirsch SIP network. If the Enterphone App has not been installed, this link will automatically download it from the internet.

Primis Server V12 SIP Support

Primis V12 server can work with SIP capable Enterphone panels in a main/peer network.

To verify that the server is connected to Hirsch’s SIP service.

  1. In System->Enterphone->SIP, verify that both Ping and Query Responses are of “Ok” status.

  2. Note that the “Register” button is only necessary when API or SIP domains have changed. 

...

Notice that for main servers, the “Registration Status” is not present as opposed to that in Enterphone Panels. This is because servers do not participate in SIP calls.

  1. All other administrative functions remain the same as that in Enterphone V12 Panels (e.g. add/edit users/suites, SIP account creation/enrollment).
