Inner Range Inception Configuration

In order to get the best out of your Inner Range Inception device, there are several components that need to be properly configured. This guide will walk you through the steps necessary to get your Inception system up.

Connecting to the Web UI

You can access Inception's web UI locally using its IP address or remotely via SkyTunnel, if it's configured.

API Documentation

You can find API Documentation directly on your Inception device.

Please replace 'serial' with a valid online device:

Hardware Configuration

  1. Navigate to Configuration > Hardware and double-click to edit the Inception controller item.
  2. Make sure you have at least one reader configured under 'READER' and linked to an output/door.

Credential Template

To create a relevant Credential Template, navigate to Configuration > Access Control > Credential Templates and create a new template.


Make sure that the 'Credential Type' is designated as 'Biometric - Face Recognition' and the 'Template Type', is configured as 'Raw (Direct Entry)'.

Creating the API User

  1. To enable the API, you will need an API user. Navigate to Configuration > Users > Manage Users.
  2. Choose an existing user or create a new user, which could be labelled as 'API User', 'Aware API', etc.
  3. You need to enable "Enable Web Login" for the API to function correctly.
  4. Set the API Token. It can be found in the 'Credentials' or 'Remote / Web Access' section.
  5. Make sure this user has complete access to list resources and control doors. Otherwise, the integration might not function correctly.

Granting Access in Inner Range Inception

Using Aware's system integrated with Inner Range Inception combines its granular access configurations with biometric identification. This guide outlines collecting individual Access Control IDs and inputting them for individual access control.

Collecting Access Control ID:

  1. Begin by logging into the Aware web app and navigate to the 'Profiles' page.
  2. Select the profile you want to grant/deny access.
  3. Find the Access Control ID located on the left-hand side of the profile, then copy the ID.

Info
If necessary, you have the option to export all profiles or a subset of them from the 'Profile' tab. The exported file will contain the Access Control IDs.

Assigning Access Control ID with Inner Range Inception:

  1. Start by going to the Inner Range Inception Portal.
  2. To assign the Access Control ID, you need to have a user. Navigate to Configuration > Users > Manage Users.
  3. Choose an existing user or create a new one. This user could be labelled anything you choose.
  4. Make sure this user has complete access to list resources and control doors for the integration to function correctly.
  5. Go to the 'Credentials' tab and add a Credential Type manually.
  6. Select the template that was created earlier for the Aware API user.
  7. Copy the Aware access control ID and paste it into the 'Credential' field.

Once you've completed these steps, your Inception device should be properly configured and ready to go.

Reviewing Activity

You can see a list of activities under State/Control > Review Events (/Events). This includes door opening or badging attempts.



Acquiring Key Information for Integration:

  1. Collection of User API Token: This is derived from the API user that you have created specifically for the integration. Please locate this User API Token within the configurations of the specific API user account.

  2. Identifying the SkyTunnel URL: Your Inner Range Inception uses a unique Skytunnel URL for its operations. The URL commonly follows this pattern: https://skytunnel.com.au/inception/INxxxxxxxx. Here, 'INxxxxxxxx' should be replaced with your device's specific serial number.
Alert
After the configuration is completed, we kindly ask you to contact us with the "Key Information" attached for us to enable the integration.
Should you face any issues or have any queries, please refer back to this guide or get in touch with our dedicated support team for further assistance.
