Title

Software Upgrades

Control

Vendors may be able to upgrade their existing PACS software to minimize the hardware changes needed for an existing PACS to accept PIV Cards. Software or firmware upgrades to Controllers or Door readers may be available to agencies. PACS suppliers should be asked if software or firmware upgrades supporting PIV Cards are a possibility. If available, the agency should ensure that the software upgrade will have no adverse effect on the PACS system or any interconnected systems.
