CSV Reports and Card Upgrade
CSV Reports and Card Upgrade
A requested feature was added to the NetAXS™ panel to support card holder updates and additions to
the database via a CSV (comma separated variable) file. In order to support this, a CSV report is first
created via a request from the web page. This report can be edited directly or loaded into a spreadsheet
to be edited. If loaded into a spreadsheet, the file can be saved in CSV format. The modified CSV file
can then be downloaded to the gateway and loop panels.
Also, an option is provided to either replace or append the card database. Replacing the database
deletes the existing card database, and appending the existing database adds new cards and updates to
existing cards, if needed. This file is downloaded first to the gateway panel, and then automatically to
each downstream panel. The file is sent to the downstream panel as a background process that allows
other web screens to continue to operate. Note that the panels will not need to reboot after the file is
downloaded.
Reverse IP
Reverse IP is implemented in the NetAXS™ panel to function with the WIN-PAK CS Reverse IP
communication setting. This allows the panel to exist behind a firewall while communication to
WIN-PAK CS is conducted on a pre-set port. This allows the NetAXS™ panel to be on a DHCP
network. Reverse IP connections are currently limited to one NetAXS™ panel per WIN-PAK CS port.
The NetAXS™ panel does not currently support encrypted reverse IP communication.
