Connecting locking units
Section 5.1 explains how to connect locking units to the CX8946 Clex online module LAN. Network identification and authentication: Follow the instructions in section 5.2 to identify and authenticate the network for proper functioning of the product. Configuring the online module: Section 5.3 guides you through the process of configuring the online module for your specific needs. To connect a locking unit with the online module, you have to perform the following steps:

Manual pairing
To this purpose users must have access to the circuit board of the module to be able to press the button.

  • Set the locking unit which you want to connect into the service mode by holding the service key in front of the locking unit.
  • Pairing button 6 Keep pressed between 1 and 4 seconds. In the case of  successful coupling the locking unit leaves the service mode before expiration of the regular duration of the mode.
  • The addresses are assigned automatically in the case of manual coupling. Please note the information on addressing in the current protocol description.

Command-driven coupling
In this case coupling is performed via a command to the online module. This provides the possibility to assign an address explicitly to the knob. Furthermore this possibility is practical if the online module has been mounted in places that are difficult to access (e.g. false ceiling). The locking unit to be connected must be brought to programming mode by using the service key card. Now the bus master must send the coupling command to the online module, which initiates a coupling.

 Network identification and authentication

Port
The device uses port 1470. On most systems, this port can be used by normal users without special rights.

MAC address
The online module always has four different directly consecutive MAC addresses, one for each of the basic functions of the installed LAN module. The addresses will always start with “E8”.

Example:

1 E8:31:CD:CD:79:5C = MAC address Station (Wi-Fi)
2 E8:31:CD:CD:79:5D = MAC address Access Point (hotspot for configuration)
3 E8:31:CD:CD:79:5E = MAC address Bluetooth
4 E8:31:CD:CD:79:5F = MAC address LAN

The MAC address of the online module can be determined in different ways:

Data matrix

  • You can find the MAC address of the device coded in the data matrix installed on the LAN module. 9
  • Scan the data matrix with a suitable mobile device (e.g. QR code reader of a smartphone). The last 12 digits of the determined text show the lowest of the MAC addresses (“MAC address Station (Wi-Fi)”).

Web interface

Two of the four MAC addresses (numbers 1+2) can be viewed in the web interface:

  • Start the web interface as described in the chapter “Configuration of the network interface”.
  • Tap on the button “Info”.
  • Scroll to the “Wi-Fi” section. This contains the MAC addresses:
  • Station MAC: MAC address Station (Wi-Fi) next to
  • Access point MAC: MAC address Access Point

Configuration of the network interface
To carry out own settings of the IP addresses, the CX8946 has a web interface. This can be addressed either via the LAN interface or the Wi-Fi interface of the CX8946.

Starting via Wi-Fi
For the configuration the CX8946 acts as a Wi-Fi Access Point (hotspot). You require a mobile device with activated Wi-Fi for the configuration. To start the Access Point, button 7 must be held down while the unit performs a reset. After that all LAN-specific settings are reset to the factory state. The pairing of the locking units remains

  • Open the Wi-Fi device menu of your mobile device.
  • Keep the 7 button pressed.
  • Tap the reset button 8 or optionally reconnect the LAN cable.
  • Continue to hold down the 7 button for at least one second until a Wi-Fi  network with the SSID: “FSMLanConfig” is displayed in the Wi-Fi menu of your mobile device.
  • Release the 7 button.
  • Tap on the list entry “FSMLanConfig”.
  • Enter the password StartConfig

The web interface now starts automatically in a browser window. Alternatively, it can also be opened via the IP address 192.168.4.1 in a web browser.

  • For security reasons, be sure to assign a new secure password in the web interface.

Changing the password

  • Tap the button “Configure network”.
  •  Select the “HTTP Basic Auth” under the item “Configure portal protection”.
  •  Select a secure password for the user “admin”.

Access to configuration tool via LAN connection
If the module is started by pressing the button in the Wi-Fi configuration mode as described above, the LAN interface is not active. If the module is started without  pressing the button as described above, the website can be reached via the address received via DHCP.

IP address in network
Assignment via DHCP
By default, the online module can automatically obtain an IP address via DHCP when it is connected to a network. The automatically assigned address can then,  for example, be displayed with the test application of the UZ Reader protocol  “ClexSerUZ_ReaderTest”. In addition, the module should also appear in the web  interface of the router. The address can be viewed there as well.

Manual input of a static IP address
Select the option “Static IPv4” in the web interface under “Configure network” in the “Ethernet settings”.

Configuring the online module
The configuration of the online mode normally takes place through the connected third-party system and the corresponding function of the respective protocols. Individual parameters of the online module can also be set directly via a BLE connection or bus commands in the service mode.

  • Carry out the settings (e.g. LAN/WLAN communication) by means of the associated software tool (details are available in the respective protocol description).

Operation

If an authorized transponder is held in front of the connected locking unit, a BLE connection is established with the online module and, depending on the version, the authorization is requested via the corresponding protocol of the third-party system. If no BLE connection can be established, for example in case of a power failure or a wireless attack, the electronics of the locking unit drops back into offline mode. In this mode the door can be opened with any transponder with offline authorization. In this case the electronics of the locking unit warns the user, however, before opening with a distinctive visual and acoustic signaling. When the locking unit is woken up, for example by a knob cylinder being turned or a door handle or knob module being actuated, a wireless connection is also established.

Reset

  • Tap the reset button 8 or disconnect the device from the power supply  (here LAN connection).

Resetting the configuration (factory reset)
Restarting configuration tools via Wi-Fi, as described in more detail in chapter 5.2.3 “Configuration of the network interface”, resets the settings made. To this purpose the 7  button must be held down while the unit performs a reset.

Firmware updates
The update tool “Clex FW Prog” is available to update the firmware of the module. Contact your respective Integration partner. The LAN interface has its own firmware, which can be updated via the web interface (see section 5.2.3).
