Net2 fault finding in Canterbury: intermittent campus and city-centre symptoms
Fault finding on a Canterbury Net2 estate is a particular discipline: the symptoms hide inside large permission trees, behind term-time activity peaks, in cable runs that pass through listed-building voids, and across multi-building campuses where the Net2 audit log is the only honest narrator. The call we see most is not "a door is broken" but "something is intermittently wrong and we can't reproduce it." That is what this page is about.
SEG engineers attend with the Paxton diagnostic toolset, RS-485 line testers, Wireshark for network-side context, and enough Net2 Pro familiarity to filter a 30,000-row audit log against a 15-minute symptom window. Where the fault only appears at lecture changeover or accommodation-block intake, we time the visit to catch it.

Net2 fault classes at Canterbury sites
"Reader misbehaves at lecture changeover"
Peak-load voltage drop, PoE budget tightening across a campus switch, or a controller relay resetting under combined load. Measure during the surge, not before it.
"Block of credentials stopped working after Friday"
Configuration import, AD/Azure sync edge case, or a permission group accidentally modified. The Net2 audit log dates and authors the change every time.
"Residential-block door reports forced outside trading hours"
Door monitor switch misaligned by repeated hard-pulls, REX sensor mis-triggering, or magnet drift on a worn frame. Term-time wear is real.
"Reception reader fine all year, then drops in October"
Seasonal humidity in heritage buildings. Cable termination box admitting damp, reader-head seal at end of life. The fix is hardware not configuration.
"Net2 Pro slow at start-of-term"
Database has not been trimmed and is now hosting years of audit data. Archive, optimise, and reporting returns to normal speed.
How a fault-finding visit runs in Canterbury
Engineer arrives with the Net2 audit log already filtered against the symptom timing. Walk-through in parallel: cable terminations, PSU output, switch port LEDs, reader voltage. Categorise. Document. Then quote remedial work.
