Affected Version: BioStar 2.9.5 or above  


This improvement in the Trigger & Action menu of BioStar 2 software is to support emergency cases where a client might have to temporarily shut down the access area or unlock all the doors instantly due to security-related situations. 


The key improved factor now is that even with one triggering event, you can now set more than one action for that particular triggering event. 


※ Improved Trigger & Action Menu

  • In the previous BioStar 2 version, the actions you could only set using the Trigger & Action menu were limited to  Device and BioStar 2, but now [Door] has been added to the action side. 
  •  As stated, the main improvement point in this Trigger & Action menu is that with one trigger event, there could be more than one action set up with [+Add to Action List] ▶ Action List


  • BioStar 2 Version 2.9.5 offers a new event labeled [ Input detected on]. This triggering event can be found under Device Event. 
[Input dected on] feature is most suitable when in usage with Suprema's multiple input extensiom module IM-120 which can control up to 12 supervised inputs. 
Note: [Input dected on] triggering event can be used with IM-120 without any previous set ups, while with other devices the input must be set in prior to be used as trigger event factor



  • For each triggering event, an email can be sent to certain recipients.
    As shown in the image below, the case is when the fire alarm zone alarm detected trigger event occurs → then as shown below, an email will be sent to two recipients. 


※ Multiple Actions can be set using One Trigger Event 
Now with one triggering event there might be a point where more than one action must occur. As an example when the fire alarm gets triggered → then simultaneously previously selected doors will get unlocked and email will be sent to set recipiants 




※Critical Point
With the improved Trigger & Action Menu, due to additional of [Use as Quick Action], user can set certains actions to occur WITHOUT setting trigger event.
For example, let's say your are facing an event with a theif then you can select all the doors and previously set all doors to be Manual Lock then without having a trigger event an action can still occur
