¶ The Interface
¶ Devices
Every device connected with CredoID will be shown in this section. Each device whether it's a controller like Mercury LP1502 or software integration like DigiFort has to be configured beforehand to be discoverable by CredoID.
¶ Add & Discover
Access control devices can be added using Discover function or manually from the list by pressing Add.
Below you can find link to each device configuration, necessary to establish connection between:

- How to add HID VertX series controllers
- How to add DigiFort VMS
- How to add ASB Musdo Security panel
- How to add CredoID Mobile reader
- How to add Suprema CoreStation
¶ Synchronize
CredoID checks configuration of each device and gives the following states:
Online- Device sucessfully connected with CredoID and can be seen.Offline- Device can't be reached.Unknown- Device configuration is unknown mainly when device is offline.Pending- Device configuration differs from CredoID.Uploading- This status appears when you Synchronize device meaning that current CredoID configuration is being sent to device.Completed- Device has been synchronized succesfully.Sync error- There was an error or misconfiguration in the device.
Any changes made in CredoID have to be synchronized with device. I.e. if you add/modify/delete door, module, schedule, you will get notification with Devices pending changes:.
If you click on this snackbar notification, you will get two options:
- Synchronize all - will synchronize every device with
Pendingstate. - Go to device selection - opens Devices tab and allows you to synchronize manually one by one.
It is necessary to synchronize device each time you make changes in CredoID with a few exceptions. Adding/modifying/deleting Access Levels and Users including credentials will not require sync.
Depending on the controller they will take some time to download configuration and after will reboot. I.e. HID VertX would take about 15s for full reboot cycle and HID Aero might take up to 50s. That can cause disruptions so plan your changes accordingly.
¶ Detailed module view
Devices with connected modules are show in expandable row. Click an arrow to expand.
You can see the Module name and ID and main inputs states such as Tamper, AC and Battery.
Failed- The input circuit is "open" and you should check it right away.Normal- The input ciruit is properly closed and there are no alarms.Online- The communication between device and module is online.Offline- The communication between device and module is down.
¶ Export
