Overview
The Commissioning feature within Paxton Installer helps to make the process of naming a controller much simpler, by allowing you to assign the name to the controller or PaxLock when installing the product in the desired location. This negates the need to write any information down, which can easily be mislaid, and allows you to store all the door information in a central location to be then imported into the Net2 software.
