Configure the Hardware
Before you can manage the doors, the hardware must be configured in the Hardware Configuration pages.
Doors, locks and other devices can be connected to the Axis product before completing the hardware configuration. However, the connection of devices will be easier if you complete the hardware configuration first. This is because the hardware pin chart will be available when the configuration is complete. The hardware pin chart is a guide on how to connect the pins and can be used as a reference sheet for maintenance. For maintenance instructions, see page 23.
If configuring the hardware for the first time, select one of the following methods:
•Import a hardware configuration file. See page 13.
•Create a new hardware configuration. See page 14.
