Controlled Products Systems Group 26SASM - Manual (Page 5)

INTRODUCTION
The ENTRACOMP ® 26SA is a stand alone access control system that
will control access to a passageway for up to 65,503 individuals.
There are two kinds of cards used with the ENTRACOMP ® 26SA, access
cards and program cards.
Access cards are used by individuals to gain access to the passageway.
Each access card is magnetically encoded with two types of information:
the system code (or facility code) and the ID number. Your access cards
will all have the same system code, but each will have its own ID number.
Your unique system code is what prevents cards from other systems
from activating your unit. The ID number is what distinguishes one user
card from another.
NOTE: The 26SA can not recognize ID
numbers higher than 65,503.
Program cards are used to tell the ENTRACOMP ® 26SA what it is to do.
As with access cards, program cards are magnetically encoded with a
common system code and instruction information. The system code
of your program cards is the same as the system code of your access
cards. Your unique system code is what prevents program cards from
other systems from programming your system. There are 15 different
program cards. There are ten number cards (0 through 9) and five function
cards. The program cards are as follows:
