Configuring the Primary System Language
A primary System Language can be defined on the System Options tab of the System Administration
> System Settings page to determine the language used for functions performed by the System, such
as assigning default device names, scheduled backups, and automated emails.
The System Language is also used if a user logs in and selects a language that is not currently
available, or if a user performs a language-related action (for example, loading events on the Events
page) and the language that the user logged in with is not available anymore. This may occur if a
language pack is removed while users are still logged into the System.
Set the System Language
1. Select System Administration > System Settings.
2. Click the System Options tab.
3. Select a System Language.
4. Click [Accept Changes].
Configuring Card Formats
Credentials (identification badges) used for electronic access control store data in various formats. In
order to read the data correctly, the card format has to be added to the configuration. The credential
ID stored on the card includes a card number, a facility code, and an issue code.
Before a credential can be recognized, the System must be configured to recognize the card format —
the way the data is formatted on the ID badge. Four default card formats are provided and more can
be added. However, the System should be configured to recognize only those formats that are actively
being used.
The default card formats provided include:
•
26 Bit (H10301) Wiegand facility code 200
•
32 Bit 14443 cascade 1
•
37 Bit (I10304) facility 40
•
40 Bit CASI 4002
Note the following details about card formats:
•
If the System is upgraded from an earlier version, existing card formats will be preserved.
•
The System is pre-configured for several popular commercial card formats, and supports up to
eight card formats active simultaneously. If a desired card format is not listed, it can be added as
a custom type.
