Perform the following process for each Salto Space site that you want to integrate with Seam:

1. Log in to the Salto ProAccess Space desktop app.

2. In the top navigation pane, go to System > General options.

3. On the General options page, click the SHIP tab.

4. In the Salto SHIP Server pane:

   1. Select Enable.

   2. In the Transport Protocol area, select HTTP(S).

   3. In the Authentication field, select Basic.

   4. In the Username field, type a username for the integration with Seam, for example, Seam_Integration.

   5. In the Password field, type a password for this Seam integration user.

   

   In the Salto Space SHIP settings, specify a username and password for the integration with Seam.

LAN URL of the Salto Space Server

During the process of connecting your Salto Space access system to Seam, you must specify the LAN URL of your Salto Space server.

To identify this URL:

1. On the Windows computer that is running the Salto Space server, open a Command Prompt window.

   That is, click Start, type cmd, and press Enter.

2. In the Command Prompt window, type ipconfig and then press Enter.

   This command displays the computer's Windows IP configuration.

3. Note the IPv4 address that the computer is using to connect to the internet.

   This IP address most likely starts with 192.

4. Prepend http:// and append the port number 8100 to the IP address to form the LAN URL.

   For example, if the computer's IP address is 192.168.1.101, the LAN URL is http://192.168.1.101:8100.

5. Note this LAN URL for use when connecting your Salto Space access system to Seam.
