EvTrack works with kiosks, handsets, access control hardware, cameras and intercoms, and with the access control system you may already have. This page lists them by the job they do, says how each one talks to EvTrack, and links to where it is set up. Devices are managed under Configuration > Access Control Settings > Devices: Add a Device, Edit a Device, Delete a Device.
