Setting Up Card Formats
28 Edge Solo User’s Guide
Most likely, you have only one type of card, but it is possible to have more than one
type for use with your Edge Solo.
Note: We recommend writing the name you assign to a box of cards on the box. This
way, you will know which cards use the format that you set up.
To set up a card format:
1 Click the Cards/PINs tab.
• The Cards/PINs tab displays.
2 Click the Card Formats text link.
• The Card Formats page displays.
3 Click Add Format.
4 From the “Which template do you want to use?” drop-down list, select the
format template that corresponds to the box of cards you are setting up.
• The format the cards use is listed on the box.
5 In the Name Your Custom Format box, enter a name for the format.
• You can enter up 20 characters, including spaces.
• Be sure you will be able to associate this name with the box of cards you
are setting up. We recommend writing the name on the box of cards and
making the name something that relates to the cards like the color or
brand.
6 If needed, enter the company ID or facility code for the card type.
• The appropriate field displays, if needed.
• This code is listed on the box. Some card types have a company ID, and
other types have a facility code.
7 Click Save
• You can now add cards to the system that use this format.
