Automatic Pam Configuration; Panel Api Communication Options - HID PIVCLASS M2000 Installation And Configuration Manual

5.5 Automatic PAM configuration

This section describes how to setup the PACS Service to PAM communication path and configure a PAM in
Reader Services using the automatic discovery feature.
The automatic discovery feature can be used if the PACS Service is on the same subnet and/or the network is
setup to allow UDP broadcast messages from Panel to the PACS Service computer.
Note: Dip Switch 1 on the PAM must be in the OFF position for Auto Discovery Mode to be enabled, see
Section 5.2: PAM DIP switches.

5.5.1 Panel API communication options

Before you begin check the panel API communication options in the PACS Service application:
1. Start the PACS Service application and select Configuration > Edit Service Settings.
2. Select Reader Services tab and ensure the Enable PAM 5 API option is selected.
Note: If the default port number 10200, is not accepted, enter a new port number in the
Port number field. Record the port number and retain it for later use to configure the PAM.
3. It is recommended that the Enable TLS encryption and Enable TLS client mutual authentication
options are selected to encrypt communication the PACS Service and API client.
