Before you can use credentials of up to 240 bits with your Mercury controllers, you
must enable support for long credentials on your
Synergis™ Cloud Link unit.
Before you begin
Ensure the following:
- Your Synergis Cloud Link is running Synergis™ Softwire 11.0 or
later, and that it is online and connected to your network.
- The Mercury controllers that you want to use long credential support with are
running firmware version 1.29.1 or later.
What you should know
Because credentials of 64 bits or longer are not automatically synchronized with
Mercury, you must manually enable them.

-
Click the Database layout settings tab from the side menu,
and then select the Long credentials database layout from the
