Important: Please make sure you go through Room Access control - General settings as well.
Introduction
The integration between Clock PMS+ and Salto enables you to streamline your operations and save time for your employees due to the convenient function to issue and encode key-cards directly through Clock PMS+. The flexibility of the integration allows you to control not only access to the room, but also access to common doors (e.g. main entrance; floor main door) or special zones (e.g. SPA or parking garage). Furthermore, you can control the times on the arrival and departure dates from/until keys will be active respectively. Finally, you are also able to issue mobile keys through Clock PMS+ as well.
Configuration
Important: A Clock IoT device is required for this integration and it must be connected to the same local (internet) network as the Salto server.
The communication protocol used for this integration is Industry Standard protocol v.1.16.
1. Access Clock PMS+ and navigate to section Settings->AppConnector->locate Salto and activate it-> click button 'Settings' ->click on 'Salto / Onity'.
2. Once the pop-up window is brought up, enter the respective information:
- Active (1) - select once all configurations are completed.
- API user (2) - select the Clock IoT device.
- Server host (3) - enter the IP address of the Salto server.
- Server port (4) - enter the port that is set for Industry Standard protocol v.1.16. You can set it in Salto ProAccess menu System->General Options->PMS.
- Version (5) - select Industry Standard v 1.16 + Mobile key support.
Encoders
Once you've added the integration details, save and enter the encoder/s details by clicking 'Add' under 'Room key Encoder' section.
You will be presented with two fields to complete:
- Name (1) - enter the name of the encoder. You will see this name within Clock PMS+. It can be very useful if you operate with many encoders as the name will assist you in distinguishing between them and select the correct one when you encode a card.
- Identifier (2) - this is the ID of the encoder within Salto. The encoder needs to be first added within their system and then add its ID here. We recommend that the ID you set in Salto for the encoder is a 2-digit number (e.g. 05). Please note that 01 cannot be used.
Important: You need to work with encoders that can be connected to your local network (USB encoders cannot be used). The encoders need to be set in Salto Pro Access -> General Options -> Salto Network
