Configuring the Advanced Security Module (ASM)

  1. Navigate to the
    Access Points
     page
  2. Select next to the Device for which you need to configure the ASM, then choose
    Edit Device Settings
  3. Toggle the
    ASM
     slider to the on position
    1. Note
      :
      When using an ASM, the
      Fail Mode
       must be set to “Fail Secure”
  4. Select 
    Save & Continue
    to proceed
  5. Select the desired lock state (once testing is complete) then click either 
    Ready
    or 
    Next
    • It should be noted that once the latch test is completed, the Device will remain in the state that was selected; either Lock or Unlocked. This can result in openings being unintentionally left unsecured.
  6. Follow the prompts to configure the ASM
    1. First, factory reset the ASM by using a pin to hold the reset button down until the status light flashes green 3 times.
    2. Once the ASM has been reset, click 
      Continue
    3. An admit will be sent as a test:
      1. The reader’s LED should turn green for the duration of the latch interval
      2. The ASM’s status light should turn green for the duration of the latch interval
      3. The physical lock should unlatch for the duration of the latch interval
    4. If the admit test did not successfully unlatch the lock, click 
      No
      then follow the prompts to repeat the configuration process
  7. Proceed through the tests (or click 
    Skip Test
    ), then select 
    Save
    when finished
  8. Once you have successfully paired the ASM module with the Reader Controller, send a Schedule command to the corresponding Device to set it back to Schedule.
If the ASM’s status light is stuck green, you will need to repeat the configuration process. If the status light is turning amber during the admit test (step 6C above), the encrypted ASM code does not currently match what is set in Pure Access and the ASM configuration process must be repeated (you may need to factory reset the ASM).
