C3 With TCP IP

This document provides instructions for connecting devices to a C3 controller using TCP/IP and adding devices to ZKAccess software. There are two ways to connect devices to the C3 controller using TCP/IP: 1) connecting a network cable directly between the device and host, or 2) using a hub or switch to connect multiple devices in an office network. ZKAccess allows devices to be added by entering the device's IP address manually or by searching the network for devices and modifying their IP addresses. A fast search tool can be used to quickly find devices on the network and modify their IP addresses before adding them to the software.

ZK Access Quick Start Guide

Install C3 using TCP/IP mode of communication

C3 controller supports the connection from panel to server over RS485 data line and also via
nodes on TCP/IP Ethernet networks. This greatly increases the flexibility of installation options.
Note: Make sure the devices are in the same LAN network with server or directly connect to the
server using the TCP/IP communication.

TCP/IP Connection Cable Mode

There are two ways to connect to C3 controller.


○
1 Network cable directly connects Management host and the device, without a hub.

○
2 In a large office a hub/switch is needed to connect more than 2 devices.

The configuration is as follows:

How to add a device into ZKAccess software?

ZKAccess provides two ways to add a device.


○
1 When the IP address of the device is already known, you can quickly add it by entering

the IP address as follow:


Click [Add] on the [Device-Device] interface.

As the interface appears, write the [Device Name], then give the [IP address] of the device. The
[IP Port No.] is defaulted to 4370 by the system. Please set the password if needed.
Note: Select the type of the device. If it is a Four-Door-One-Way Access Control Panel there will
appear an extra option-[Switch to Two-door Two-way]. Select as appropriate according to
the actual device.

Select the [Area] the device belongs to. If you do not want to clear the data (Information in Time
zones, Access Levels, etc.) in the device when adding, remove the check beside the [Clear Data in
the Device when adding] option. Click [OK] to add the device.
○
2 Click [Search Access Control Panels] option on the [Device-Device] interface.

Click [Search], after searching, the usable device will show in the results list. Modify the IP
address to available IP, and then add the device.

Using fast search tool to modify the IP address of a device

ZK provides a fast search tool for searching devices and modifying the IP addresses. This allows
devices to be added directly without modifying the system, which is inconvenient and time
consuming.
The tool and the operation of searching and modifying are as follows:
Click [Search Panel] on the [Setting] dropdown menu.

After a few seconds results for the usable devices will appear.

Click to select the device and [Modify IP Address] on the [Setting] dropdown menu to modify the
IP address of the devices.
