New Features in 3.5.0
Enhanced support for 2N Fortis electronic locks
- Integration with 2N Fortis Commander - Access Commander now supports export to 2N Fortis Commander, our new Windows-based tool for electronic lock setup and maintenance. Fortis Commander simplifies initial lock pairing and ongoing servicing. It is available as a standalone download from 2n.com. This replaces the third-party tool introduced in version 3.4.
- Event Logging - Access and system events—such as access granted/denied, low battery, battery replaced, or lock jammed—are now transferred to Access Commander when cards are presented to IP-based readers. Events are logged with both the event timestamp and the time received. Devices with low battery are highlighted in the status column of the device list. Event collection can be configured to include access and system events, system events only or no events (to conserve card storage)
- Lock Groups - Electronic locks can now be grouped, making it easier to manage access rights for areas like cleaning cupboards on each floor or “Access All Areas” permissions. When creating zones, you can assign individual locks or lock groups. Locks may belong to multiple groups simultaneously.
- Unified Maintenance Card Functionality - The ‘New locks setup’ card has been merged into the service card. The updated service card now supports both brand-new locks and those already deployed in a project.
- Customizable Maintenance Card Validity - The default one-year validity period for maintenance cards is now editable, allowing for greater flexibility in card lifecycle management.
New search improvements
- The main search box has been centralised in the application header for greater visibility.
- When a USB based card reader is enabled (Settings > Credentials > Enabled USB readers) a card icon appears next to the search box. Clicking this icon and presenting a card to the reader looks up the card informing the user of the owner or permissions that this card has (maintenance cards). Perfect for finding the owner of a found card or fob.
- Presenting an access card used with Fortis locks will update that card and also transfer any card events to Access Commander's System and Access Logs.
Company specific time profiles
In multi-company installations, admins can now assign new time profiles to companies. An access manager will only see system-wide time profiles or time profiles assigned to their company. The creation of a new time profile by an access manager will not be visible to other companies.
2N Emergency Elevator Communicator support
Access Commander now supports 2N OS based elevator devices (LiftIP 2.0 and Sentrio). The online state of these devices can be monitored from the device list, monitoring page and can be notified by email. As with all 2N OS devices, access to the device web configuration is also supported, with Access Commander remembering the device password.
Other improvements:
- CAM log images can now be downloaded in bulk rather than individually.
- User access PINs created by managers are now random preventing the unintentionally discovery of existing user PINs of other companies. Applies to multi-company installations only. Admins still have the option to set a pin of their choice.
- CSV exports of logs now include time stamps that match the application system time zone. For installations that span multiple time zones the option to choose UTC+0 remains.
- User login now persists after reboot.
- From the user profile page all browser login sessions are visible with IP address, operating system, browser type and last activity timestamp. All sessions can be logged out with a single click.
