If you change any value for a reader/door, this will
cause that device to be reset to its default /
scheduled state (this allows configuration updates to
be managed properly). To check or re-set status
aspects, refer to the "Door" status/control topic.

Introduction to Access-Controlled
Doors

"Access-control" (who can go where and
when) can be easily integrated into the system
using door-control modules. This controlled
access can be added for up to

32

doors per

panel (with 1 or 2 readers per door).

Door capacity and type(s) of door controllers supported
depends on your software licensing agreement, which
is managed through the 'activation key' on the parallel
(or USB) port of the server (or only) PC (and the
licensing software provided).
Elevators: The door capacity is shared with elevators
(max. 32 combined). Elevators also share the door
numbering (and panel memory space), and will be
listed along with the doors (editable under "Elevator"
only). Tip: You can define elevators at the end of the
list, or click [Filter] on the toolbar to show only the
numbers associated with doors.
Also See: Elevators (Lifts) and Associated Readers.

The entry-requirements for each reader / door
can be configured to meet your specific
requirements. As well, many items can be set
to a rotating schedule, allowing different
parameters to be in effect after-hours.

Two card types can be set up, allowing either Wiegand
/ Prox and Magstripe / barcode, or two types of
Wiegand / Prox cards to be supported (at the same
time) at each specific panel. For details on setting up
the card/token format, refer to "System Card-Access
Settings".
Wiegand-output reader keypads are supported for
Card+PIN (and PIN-Only) entry modes and signalling
duress. Matrix-style keypads (i.e., that require
additional connections) are supported only via
converted TDC and PDC door controllers.
To set up monitoring for an Entry/Exit door that is NOT
electronically controlled for personnel access, refer to
"Inputs—Monitored Sensors".
