Check and evaluate the battery level in the locking devices - LSM 3.5 SP3 Basic

There are different ways to query a locking device's battery level. In regular offline locking systems (and VN), the battery levels must first be transmitted to the LSM software before they can be evaluated in different ways.

Transmitting battery levels to the LSM software

Fast & efficient: "collect" battery levels using a transponder

  1. Take a transponder which is authorised for use on all locking devices. Activate this transponder on each locking device.
  2. Re-programme the transponder. Activate the checkbox "Read deactivation acknowledgement/Battery warnings" in the "Programme transponder" window.

 

Importing battery levels by reading the locking device

Select "Programme/read locking device" to read the required locking devices separately.

 

Transmitting battery levels to the LSM software using LSM Mobile

You can use LSM Mobile to read battery levels directly or transmit them to the LSM software. Follow the instructions in the LSM Mobile manual. You will find it under Documents in the Support section on the SimonsVoss website (www.simons-voss.com/en).
