®
SiPass integrated is an advanced access control system. Its superior range of se-
curity features ensures that it is an ideal access control solution for any application
regardless of size or complexity.

vanced access control with easy yet powerful connectivity to Video, Intrusion (Sin-
tony 400 series/SPC), Building comfort (APOGEE, DESIGO CC), OPC A&E com-
pliant applications, Building Management Stations, Offline door access systems
(SALTO), and finally Fire and Danger Management (MM8000).

Important Release Information (Pre-Requisites)
Users please note that installing SiPass integrated on a public domain presents
vulnerabilities (e.g., being infected by PC viruses) like any application running on a
Windows environment.
If SiPass integrated or ACCs etc. are to be installed on a public domain, it is rec-
ommended that a dedicated network (like a minimal VLAN) be used for optimal se-
curity. Telnet and SSH on the controllers should be disabled after installation. Fur-
ther, installation of the server and the client as dedicated applications on PCs is
advisable.
SiPass integrated users are also advised to lockdown USB ports on the PCs where
SiPass integrated has been installed. Further, it is recommended that client PCs
for non-administrator operators should be locked down.
It is recommended that all SiPass integrated operators install and run an Anti-Virus
or Virus Scan application to protect your computer from viruses, and other security
threats that can compromise the performance of the system.
SiPass integrated has been tested with the TREND MICRO Office Scan software.
As there are numerous brands of anti-virus software available in the market, it is
recommended that you first investigate the source of software before downloading
and installing it. It is advisable that you choose a virus scanner that best meets the
needs of your particular software environment. It is also important that you test
your anti-virus application with SiPass integrated before going live to ensure that
the anti-virus application does not impact the performance of your security man-
agement.
Please contact vendors of the chosen anti-virus software for instructions and up-
dates.

Please note that the following tables relate to the English version of the Windows
Operating Systems outlined.

*Some additional configuration settings are required to ensure that the specified versions of Windows
operating systems operate correctly with SiPass integrated. Please refer Appendix A contained within
the SiPass integrated MP2.65 Installation Guide for further information.
NOTE
Whilst all the versions of SQL Server listed above are supported, those sites with multiple clients and
higher activity (for example, a large number of doors / cardholders / or event transactions) are recom-
mended to purchase a higher performance version of SQL optimized for both scalability and perform-
ance (for example, SQL Server 2008 Enterprise). Please refer to the Microsoft website for more infor-
mation regarding SQL versions and performance at the following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/features/compare-features.mspx
Failure to install the appropriate version of SQL Server may have an adverse impact upon the per-
formance of SiPass integrated.

NOTE
Whilst both the SiPass Server and Client can run on multiple Windows platforms, it is recommended
that where possible a single operating system be chosen for an entire installation.
The same SiPass integrated version, as well as the same build of SiPass integrated should be in-
stalled on the SiPass integrated server and on all clients (local and remote), within the same system.
*Some additional configuration settings are required to ensure that the specified versions of Windows
operating systems operate correctly with SiPass integrated. Please refer Appendix A contained within
the SiPass integrated MP2.65 Installation Guide for further information.
SiPass integrated will function normally with either SQL Server 2005 SP3 or SQL
Server 2008. If there are no SQL server versions installed on the computer where
SiPass integrated is installed, SiPass integrated will automatically install a runtime
version of Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.

If a search request is initiated using VSS_SDK, directed to a
SISTORE AX device, and there are a lot of short recorded sequences on the AX hard drive(s), it may
take up to 15 minutes until a search result is found. In this case it is recommended to increase the re-
cording duration of the AX in order to prevent too many short sequences from being generated.

NOTE
The above modems have been tested with SiPass integrated 2.6 and the ACC. It is recommended
that the same modem type be installed throughout an installation to ensure compatibility. Other mo-
dem brands may be compatible but have not been tested. It is recommended that you test the com-
patibility of these modems prior to installation at any facility. Further, additional checks should be
performed to ensure that your modem is compatible with your Operating System.

The above table only lists those card printers that have been tested with SiPass integrated. All Windows
compatible card printers should operate correctly with SiPass integrated 2.65. However, it is recom-
mended that you test your card printer for correct operation before installation in a live environment.
Further, additional checks should be performed to ensure that your card printer is compatible with your
Operating System.
If using Windows 7 Operating System, please ensure that the firmware of your Card Printer is upgraded
to be compatible with Windows 7 OS.

4.15.2 RS-485 Enrollment Readers
NOTE
When using an RS-485 output reader an RS485 to RS232 conversion unit must be used to connect
that enrolment reader to the serial port of the SiPass workstation client.
NOTE
The USB-RIF itself is not a reader, but a device to which a reader may be connected. Once connected
the USB-RIF will convert the readers output into a USB signal for connection to a PC. Also note the
USB-RIF only supports certain reader types.
The USB-RIF has severe restrictions with reading card types. It can read 26bit Wiegand, 32 bit
Wiegand and all Siemens Clock/Data formats. No other formats are supported.
NOTE
(DRI Version D1) does not support the connection of RS-232 type readers.

*SiPass integrated supports L1 readers that have a Vseries DLL. However, some
readers may require additional verification with the manufacturer regarding the
compatible reader version that is equivalent to Version 4.1.2.0 in the case of the
4GSTSG reader.
A separate license for using the Vseries DLL is required from the reader manufac-
turer.
NOTE
The fingerprint template layout is defined using the reader setup tool but the enrolment can be per-
formed using SiPass.
The entire reader configuration is done with the reader setup tool, such as time schedules.
SiPass integrated supports card + fingerprint. It is not possible to use fingerprint-only as a credential in
SiPass integrated.
Using L1 readers, multiple fingerprints can be encoded on the Mifare Classic and Mifare DESFire
cards if the fingerprint is not configured to be stored in the SiPass database. Otherwise only one
fingerprint can be encoded on the smartcards using either Siemens readers or L1 readers.
The above table only lists those cards that have been tested with SiPass integrated. Apart from the
listed readers all 4G V-Station readers that support SecureSDK, smart card option and fingerprint
format TEM 1:1 works with SiPass integrated. For reader specifics, please contact the reader manu-
facturer.
