Support Wireless Door Lock via OSDP Integration

Affected Version: BioStar v2.9.4 or above 
Affected Products & Versions: CoreStation v1.7.1 or above

Suprema integrated a “Wireless Door Lock” from a manufacturing company called Uhlmann & Zacher (U&Z) into CoreStation. With CoreStation v1.7.1 and BioStar 2 v2.9.4, you can use the wireless door lock feature.

With this new feature, users can use wireless communication to authenticate even at a Wireless Door Lock located at a remote location from the CoreStation.

Below the v.2.9.3 or lower version of BioStar 2, the configuration of the door lock was possible only through physical wiring. Accordingly, for aesthetic reasons or security reasons, the need to introduce a door lock capable of wireless connection has been raised. To satisfy this market need, Suprema has launched the “Wireless Door Lock” integrated with U&Z.
