Interlogix VEREX Director - Manual (Page 159)

21-0381E v4.9.1 Welcome Report Control Admin Sys Config Tech-Ref 151
Users Shared Across Multiple Accounts: Beginning
with Director V4.20, groups of users can be set up
once, and then given access to multiple accounts. For
a shared user, changes made here will affect multiple
accounts. To set up shared users, refer to "Users and
Holidays Shared Across Multiple Accounts".
Data Conflicts--Users: Changes made through the
software will take precedence over changes for the
same user entered through a keypad. V4.7: User
conflicts that cannot be resolved in this way (e.g., the
same value given to different users) will be shown in
grid view, with only the rows in conflict displayed. To
return to showing all users, right-click, and select
"Return From Conflict View".
Users
Users are the persons authorized to use
system keypads and/or gain entry to controlled
areas. Each user can have unique authorities,
keypad language, etc.
The user topic includes information pertaining
to each user, and provides access to the
optional card-badging feature.
 The number of users to be supported depends on
your software version and licensing. For details, refer
to "Software Activation and Licensing", and "System
Capacities".
 Additional users (and authorities) would
typically need to be set up for a 'Panic Token'
application. For details, see the "Special Attributes"
selections under "Authorities for Users / Entrants".
UK / ACPO Systems: A service login will require a
second ID & PIN via user 001. This user's default PIN
(7793) can be changed as desired.
Visitor-Related Features
A number of features are provided for handling
visitors in your facility:
 Authority parameters can be set up to
determine the doors and features the visitors
will be able to access;
 Each card can be assigned an activation and
expiry date and time;
 Cards can be set as "Escort Required" to allow
tracking them without providing access to
controlled areas on their own;
 You can leave a visitor's PIN blank to block
access to LCD keypads;
 Reader(s) can be set to disable different types
of cards when presented.
Suite-Security Keypad Users
Users to be associated with a suite-security
keypad (monitored apartment or facility) are
assigned in a special way. Blocks of 8 users
are reserved for each keypad when adding
and setting up the keypads.
These users must be defined within the
appropriate user-ID range associated with their
suite security keypad.
To check (or set) the user-ID range for a specific suite-
security keypad refer to "Suite-Security Keypads and
Related Settings".
Multi-Tenant Facilities
A facility with multiple tenants (such as a row
of shops) can be managed as a single
account. This requires that blocks of user-IDs
and authorities be reserved for the users in
each tenant facility.
The authority to edit specific blocks of users
and user-authorities is set within each user's
authority. This allows persons within each
facility to use an LCD keypad to edit their own
users, without allowing them to edit users in
other facilities.
For details, refer to "Authorities for Users / Entrants".
Users who can Enter During
Communications-Failure'
Up to 10 users can be set up for door-access
in the event of any door control module(s)
being unable to communicate with the system
panel. If using this feature, be sure to make a
list of the No./ID the system assigns to these
users as you go along.
For details, refer to "Door Fall-back Mode" under
"System Card-Access Settings", and the section on
"Fall-Back Users".
Elevator (Lift) Cabs: This feature is also supported for
individual elevator (lift) cabs. To enable "Fallback
Mode" for an elevator, refer to "Elevators (Lifts) and
Associated Readers".
