WiFi Settings
To connect to a WiFi network, click the drop down arrow in the “SSID” box. This
should display all available WiFi networks. Select the relevant network and
then enter the network password into the “Passphrase” box.
digiCentral Server
Enter the Host name of
your digiCentral server.
This will either be
provided by your
analysis provider or will
match your own
digiCentral server
settings. The Port
Number should be left
as 4616 unless you are
hosting your own
digiCentral server.
Company Card Identication
To link the digicard-AUT with digiCentral in order to authenticate a specic
company card, you need to enter the digiCentral Account ID and associated
Key.
The Account ID can be found in the top right hand corner of your digiCentral
web platform (e.g. TACHOSYS00).

Generating the Company Card Key
Generating the Company Card Key
To generate a company card identication key, log into your digiCentral
account (the same account as specied in Host Name). Navigate to the
“Company Cards” tab and select “Register new company card” (admin only).
In the description
eld, which is free
form, you can be as
descriptive as you
wish as it will be used
to identify the card in
what could be a long
list. A description
such as “Lincolnshire NDC” is more useful than the card number for
instance. This eld is not used by the system to identify the card hence being
free form.
In the “Connected alert interval” eld you should enter a numerical value
representing the number of hours you wish to wait before the system sends an
alert to an error on a company card. Click “Conrm” and you will automatically
navigate back to the company card list.
The newly registered company card will be in the company card list on
digiCentral. The new entry will have an associated “Key”. Copy and paste this
into the “Key” eld in the digicard-AUT conguration settings.

Testing Connections and Authentication
Testing the Connection
After the information
has been entered to
congure the
digicard-AUT, click the
“Test” button. This will
test that the device
connects to the WiFi, to
digiCentral and that the
digiCentral company
card credentials are
correct.
If all the information is correct you should get three green ticks (see Fig ). If
any connection fails, check that the information entered is correct or contact
your system administrator.
Once your digicard-AUT has been congured and the connection test is
successfully completed, disconnect the device from your PC.
Running digicard-AUT for authentication
Using the v USB power supply provided, plug the digicard-AUT into the mains
supply.
The red power LED should ash before going o. The blue LED should
intermittently ash as the device seeks to connect to the WiFi network.
Enter the company card into the device (chip nearest the LED indicators). The
red LED should change to green, indicating a company card is present. The
blue LED should turn solid once the WiFi connection has been established.
The connection between the digicard-AUT and digiCentral has now been
established, enabling remote download devices to authenticate against the
company card.
