You will need to know either the IP Address or the host name and the port of your Paxton NET2 server, the Paxton NET2 installer should be able to assist you in supplying this.

For installations where the Paxton Net2 and Sign in Client are installed to the same PC then 127.0.0.1 can be used.

Enter the password you set for the operator in the previous Net2 setup steps

Click the “Load Readers” button which will show a list of all the configured Paxton NET2 ACU’s (access control unit’s).

Tick all readers you wish the client to respond to

(normally all of them but may differ if you do not want the client controlling access to certain areas)

Click “OK” to finish

You should now have a “Sync” button on the front screen of the sign in screen that when clicked will initiate the population of Net2 with the members in your system that have a Card Number in their details page and a valid membership .
