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.
