Configuring the S1, S2, & Button Inputs
Click the
button to open the screen below.
NOTE: These settings are global. S1, S2, Buttons 1 through 4 in all apartments will be assigned the same
values. However, some customization for each apartment can be done through the Resident’s individual
screen. Please see Pg. 63 - Resident Restrictions Screen.
The following pages are explanations of the configuration screens for the S1 and S2 inputs and Button 1
through 4 assignments.
These settings are global for all the S1, S2, and Buttons 1 through 4 in the system. Note that all inputs/
buttons have separate tabs and can be configured individually for different purposes.
NOTE: Buttons 3 & 4 are only available with the QwikBUS™ video monitors.
The S1/S2/Button - Setup
Description: Enter a label for the devices that will be
connected to all S1 or S2 inputs. Enter a label for Buttons
1, 2, 3, & 4 if used.
Disable Input: Checking the box in the upper right hand
corner will disable all S1, S2, B1, B2, B3, or B4 inputs
(selected individually from their respective screens).
Type of contact closure: From the drop down box, select
one of the two options, either a locking/maintained
device, a momentary/self-resetting device, or Door
Monitor.
Delay before activation: If a resident actuates a latching
type device, this allows the device to be reset within the
allowed delay time without setting an alert. If the contact
is still closed after this grace period, the system will react
as configured. This option is only available to a
latching/maintained device and will be disabled in the
case of a momentary/self-resetting device.
There are many devices available which are compatible with
AlphaEntry™. For specific needs, contact us for additional choices and
