Mode selection For testing of HWg-SH4 in offline mode you can keep the unit in the default settings, only with connected RFID reader. Offline mode Offline mode enables users to start using the access system HWg-SH4 immediatelly. Users can be added, edited or removed manually on the User DB tab. This way of use is preferred to be used only for managing a single HWg-SH4 unit with a small number of users.
• HWg-SH4s units contain one channel (module) for door control • HWg-SH4s and HWg-SH4e units can be combined within one system • max number of door channels (modules) controlled by one HWg-SH4 unit is 34, including two channels on HWg-SH4 Connected modules communicate with HWg-SH4 using a TCP connection.
=> OBJECT => ELEMENT. • Modules are physical devices like the HWg-SH4, HWg-SH4e, HWg-SH4s and others. Each module contains one or more objects. • Object represents door type objects, RFID readers and relay type objects – (Relay type objects chapter). Each object contains one or more elements.
RFID tags. Apartment building access system HWg-SH4 can be used as an access system for apartment houses or offices. A typical application can be using RFID reader for access from the outside of the building, together with an exit button installed on the inner side of the door. To enter the house you can then simply use the RFID tag and to leave the building you can press an exit button.

Access into a company building with a gate HWg-SH4 can be used for entry gates on company parking lots. One RFID reader with a keyboard would control the entry gate and another reader with a keyboard would then control access into the building (the gate and the door require differend codes assigned).
HWg-SH4 unit is then installed inside the rack and the RFID reader is placed on one of the doors (or both). If there is only a single HWg-SH4, it can be simply configured in offline mode through its WWW interface.

A solution using remote HWg-SH4e/HWg-SH4s units One of the main advantages of the HWg-SH4 system is the option to use one control unit with several subordinated HWg-SH4e or HWg-SH4s units. In such cases a use of RFID reader with a keyboard connected to HWg-SH4 is expected. Individual doors have their own unique numbers corresponding with a door (key/lock) number or with a number of the rack cabinet (where the number is then used as a door code).

Solution with 8x HWg-SH4s In this application the HWg-SH4 serves only as a terminal connected to an RFID reader, while subordinate units control all the locks. A door to be opened is defined by a code entered on the keypad.

Communication between HWg-SH4 and DCD is done via a closed and encrypted protocol of HWg-DCD, based on the TCP/IP principle where the HWg-SH4 is a TCP client. Each unit creates a permanent TCP connection after it is powered on and in case that any event appears on the side of HWg-SH4 (loaded card, entered code, door opened…), the device notifies the server.
Page 33
Configuration changes are processed in both DB and the device at the same time in order to make work with HWg-DCD more fluent. Connection between HWg-SH4 and HWg-DCD is caused by any action on the side of the HWg-SH4, or randomly in 30-90s period. Any changes done in HWg-DCD will then be applied in less than 90 seconds.
