SiPass System Limits and Compatibility

Compatibility Information

• SiPass Integrated V2.70 (see limitations below), V2.70SP1, V2.75, V2.76, V2.76SP1, V2.76SP2

Field Subsystem Dimensions

• Max 1000 doors per Desigo CC project
• Max 5 SiPass drivers per Desigo CC Server/FEP
• Max 2 SiPass servers per driver, with max 256 doors per server
• Max 1 SiPass server per driver, with more than 256 and up to 1000 doors

NOTE: The maximum number of doors supported per Desigo CC project is1000, independently of the number of drivers and SiPass servers configured. To configure large access control systems, use a distributed deployment to split the load between different Desigo CC projects, and use remote SiPass MSApi to split the load of large SiPass server configurations.

Multiple Desigo CC Connections

Up to three Desigo CC servers may be connected to the same SiPass server. This allows for the following:

• Separate Desigo CC servers operating independently (that is, not in distribution) can connect to the same SiPass server, for a redundant configuration.
• In a distributed Desigo CC deployment, the interlinked Desigo CC servers can connect to the same SiPass server with distinct SiPass users, to partition the system based on the user rights. Each Desigo CC server will import only that portion of the SiPass subsystem for which its SiPass user has rights.

NOTE: For multiple Desigo CC connections to work, in configurations where SiPass is installed on the same computer as Desigo CC, the SiPass client must be installed after installing Desigo CC.
