2. Enable/Disable open door when presented valid card under auto open zone
This function is to increase security, even though it is under auto open zone, at least there should be the first user who presented valid card to open the door.
Auto open zone begin> do not have to swipe valid card> door open
24*001#
Auto open zone begin> have to swipe first valid card > door open
24*000#
3. Setting auto open time zone (can set up to 2 different time zone)
For example:
The office door need to keep opening from 8AM to 10AM and 5PM to 7PM during week day Monday-Friday excluding weekend and holiday. The command will be:
First time zone 8AM-10AM, Monday-Friday: 08*0*08001000*01111100# and
Second time zone 5PM to 7PM, Monday-Friday: 08*1*17001900*01111100#
This example will apply door keep opening time every 8AM to 10AM and 5PM to 7PM from Monday-Friday but won’t opening automatically during Saturday, Sunday, and Holiday.
To change the auto time zone day or time, change the between 1 or 0 (enable or disable).
Example: Second time zone 5PM to 7PM, Monday-Friday 08*1*17001900*01111100# change into auto open zone for all days all year around à 08*1*17001900*11111111#
- Holiday: enable/disable auto open

Option 2. Suitable for controller and AR-323D without keypad
1. Enable/Disable auto open zone
Write the command based on Soyal Communication protocol 20H Write EEPROM
From the protocol mentioned above, we could decide to enter command
20 00 06 01 04 to enable auto open zone
20 : from 20H Write EEPROM
00 06 : EEPROM address to write the command
01 : write 1 byte length
04 : write enable auto open zone
20 00 06 01 00 to disable auto open zone
20 : from 20H Write EEPROM
00 06 : EEPROM address to write the command
01 : write 1 byte length
04 : write disable auto open zone
Step 1. Download CommView as part of SoyalToolSetup
Step 2. Enter node ID of your controller
Step 3. Select your communication port
-If you are using AR-321CM converter (RS485 to USB converter) you might select COM option, which one is the COM PORT, click right on windows icon > device manager > Port
-If you are using AR-727CM (RS485 to Ethernet converter) you might select TCP/IP and enter your IP address. But COMMVIEW is not supported with TCP/IP. Therefore you might want to make virtual COM PORT with your IP address using VSCOM.
Download VSCOM as part of SoyalToolSetup
Step 1. Insert IP address
Step 2. Select Port [1621]. If you are connecting to multi-door controller, PORT for CH1 is [1621] CH2 is [1623]
Step 3. Enter COM PORT you desired
Step 4. Select [Add]
