Suprema officially supports Suprema Mobile Access Dynamic Site from BioStar2 V2.8.9.
Dynamic Site Policy
- Dynamic Site allows you to reissue, revoke, or discontinue mobile access cards or specify the expiration date. It deducts credits according to the period of use or devices. You can use Dynamic in gyms, libraries, or shared facilities where it provides membership services.
- The BioStar 2 server needs to be connected to the Internet and run ONLY when issuing or deleting a Dynamic Card.
- Mobile devices for which Dynamic Cards have been issued must ALWAYS be connected to the Internet. In unavoidable cases, a maximum exception time of 5 minutes is allowed, but after that, it will be marked as network disconnected, and you cannot use the access card.
There is only one site that you can register in BioStar 2 → Settings → Mobile Access. Dynamic Site and Regular Site cannot be connected to one BioStar 2 server.
If you create a Dynamic Site on Airfob Portal, you can issue a Suprema Mobile Access card for free for 1 MONTH without purchasing a license. When the free trial period has expired, and if you have not purchased a separate credit for the Dynamic Site, you will be notified as follows:
BioStar 2: An alert message will show if the administrator tries to issue or delete the mobile access card. (The site is currently under payment requested status. Please change the site's credit from the Airfob Portal and try again.)
Airfob Portal: Free usage period expiration email sent to Dynamic Site administrator account.
Airfob Pass: The card issued at Dynamic Site is changed now to suspended.
- The credit deduction method of the Dynamic site is different from the Regular.
Card Issuance Limitation | Unlimited |
Credit Deduction Policy | 1 Credit deduction per device registered |
Billing Method | Monthly * Contact the Sales Representative for further details. (Link) |
- A detailed description of difference between Dynamic Site and Regular Site: Related Article
Notes
- If the dynamic site is connected, the message about credit deduction is NOT confirmed when the Mobile Access Card is issued. (Same for issuing directly from the user page and through CSV.)
- If the dynamic site is connected, you MUST enter the expiration date of the Mobile Access Card.
- When a batch-issuing a Mobile Access Card for a Dynamic Site through CSV Import, import FAILS if there is no information about the start and end date of the card's validity period.
- After creating a dynamic site, the credit is verified as 0, even if a device is added. Even if the credit is 0, you CAN proceed with issuing and authenticating a Mobile Access Card for the Dynamic Site for free for 1 MONTH.
