iSTAR Edge to iSTAR Edge G2 Conversion


You can convert an iSTAR Edge panel to iSTAR Edge G2 panel through the C•CURE Administration Client. The conversion
process converts an iSTAR Edge panel to iSTAR Edge G2 panel within the C•CURE database.

The conversion retains the iSTAR Edge’s name, and the object GUIDs of the iSTAR, boards, doors, readers, events, actions,
and any associated objects. You do not need to create new objects, edit events, or map icons. C•CURE also retains the
iSTAR Edge’s journal history.

For this conversion process, you do not need to stop or restart the iSTAR drivers or the CrossFire services.
NOTE

Overview
Start the conversion process from the iSTAR Edge controller’s editor window. On the General tab, click Convert to Edge G2.
