Organisational setup

When setting up the your organisation, it is important to know how the different parts are used together. To make full use of the logic, please note the following.

  1. The highest level of geographical separation consists of Locations.
  2. A Location consists one or more Sites. An example of a Site can be a physical branch, or a specific grouping of devices within a branch.
  3. Each Site consists of one or more Devices. An example of a device is an AmpliSec lock.
  4. The end user access towards Devices are handled by Operative Users.
  5. To make use of the Sites and Operative Users, they are logically combined into Groups. Each Group consists of one or more Sites and one or more Operative Users.
Info

Note: In later chapters, the Groups are added to Work Orders, with time limited access rights according to the specific needs for that Work Order.

Adding a Device

The following chapters assumes that the organisational setup has been, at least partly, done according to the list below:

  • Creating a Location
  • Creating a new Site

Adding a Device to a Site

Organisation Manager (Devices)


The ‘Devices’ page will be displayed, select ‘Add Device’. 

Add Device


Add the name of device, select the device vendor and the site from the dropdown menus.

E.g. If you want to add an AmpliSec lock select Tecnosicurezza in Device Vendor field.

Add New Device Details


Another dropdown menu will appear once the vendor has been selected. Select the type of device from this dropdown menu and click ‘Save’. The ‘Devices’ page will be displayed. 

Info

Note: Each device type will have additional device settings according to the type’s capabilities. Each device type is presented in detail later.

New Device Details


By selecting the ‘Locations’ tab from the ‘Organisation Manager’ page, you can view the device by clicking the down arrows next to the location and groups.

New Device Added

AmpliSec

AmpliSec supports the following device settings.

AmpliSec device settings


  • Duress notification

The Duress Alert feature allows for a notification alert to be sent during high-risk situations. This feature can be used to trigger the duress alarm through a predefined gesture in the Gunnebo iQ for Locks app.
If triggered by an operative user, an email will be sent to the administrators with information about the user and location where duress was triggered. On the Gunnebo iQ web portal, a duress notification banner will also be visible for administrators that are currently logged in. Clicking the notification banner will take the user to the Duress Notifications tab on the Audit Trails page. There a detailed view on present and past duress notifications.

  • Passcode

When passcode is enabled for a an AmpliSec device, all Operative Users need to verify each unlock with their personal passcode before the device will unlock.

The Operative User will have to create their own passcode when logged in to the Gunnebo iQ for Locks app. It is also possible for Operative Users to change their passcode. There is a mandatory delay of 30 minutes from creating or changing a passcode until it is valid. The passcode is personal for the Operative User and can not be viewed by any administrator.

  • Geolocation

When Geolocation is enabled for an AmpliSec device, the Gunnebo iQ for Locks app will perform a comparison between the Operative User’s phone location and the set location of the device. If the location differs to much, it will not be possible to unlock the device even if the Operative User has a valid Work Order for the specific device.
To set the location of the device, either click the Site location button (to use the Site’s address location) or write/paste exact coordinates in the Latitude/Longitude fields. The maximum comparison deviation from the device location is set by selecting the preferred value in the Range dropdown.

AmpliSec Permissions

AmpliSec has the following Type Configuration options that can be enabled for a Work Order.

AmpliSec Permissions


  1. Mobile Verified Unlock

When Mobile Verified Unlock is activated in the Work Order, the Operative User has to verify themselves as an authorised user of the mobile device. This is done by the app triggering input of the device’s lock screen, where the Operative User has to input their valid device face Id, fingerprint or PIN before the unlock is carried out.

  1. Dual Control

When Dual Control is activated, unlocking requires 2 Operative Users (in the same Work Order) to connect to the lock and Unlock before the lock unlocks.

  1. Manual Single Opening Access Request (SOAR) generation

The Single Opening Access Request (SOAR) requires each unlock by the Operative User to be approved by a Gunnebo iQ administrator. By default, when a SOAR request is initiated by the Operative User, all administrators have the possibility to approve it. To limit the number of administrators allowed to interact with the SOAR request, add the specific administrator users to the group(s) added in the Work Order. Then only the added administrators will be able to approve the requests.

The flow of the complete SOAR from beginning to end is the following:

  • User connects to the lock and requests access.
    • Access request timer starts according to the work order settings (e.g. 20 minutes).
  • Administrator validates user and approves the request.
    • Unlock timer starts (10 minutes).
  • User connects to the lock and presses Unlock.
  • Lock Unlocks.
SOAR flow
  1. Close Confirmation

The Close Confirmation feature ensures that Operative Users explicitly confirm the secure closure of a lock after an opening operation. When enabled in the Work Order (WO), the App prompts the user to confirm the lock is closed. This confirmation is logged in the Gunnebo iQ (GiQ) system for traceability and compliance. Administrators can configure the required confirmation time. To prevent missed confirmations, the Operative User who initiated the opening is persistently reminded via in-app notifications to do it. If confirmation is not received within the defined time, the system triggers an alert in the GiQ portal and records the event in the Audit Trail. All confirmation events —on time, late, or missing— are logged for full accountability. Feature requires supported firmware and app versions.

  • Saving the Work Order

After adding schedule and the needed permissions for the Work Order, save it. This has created a work order for the Operative User(s) in the added group(s).

Audit Trails

Every time a lock interaction takes place, logs are created to describe what took place, when it took place and who (if applicable) initiated the action. For actions taken place in the Gunnebo iQ web portal, such as Work Order creation, are automatically stored directly in the Audit Trails. For lock interactions done via a mobile device, such as Unlocking, all logs are automatically uploaded to Gunnebo iQ by the Gunnebo for Locks app and are stored in the Audit trails. For logs that are derived directly in the lock without any external device need a mobile device to be connected via Bluetooth before the logs are sent to the Gunnebo iQ Audit Trails.
