Access Control

The Access Control Wizard detects the available reader ports and creates the doors. It also enables you to assign an unlock schedule to each door to determine when the door will unlock. For example, a typical staff entry door may need to unlock at 8am and be locked again at 5pm. Use the Schedule Operates Late to Open (see Doors | Options) option to prevent the door unlocking on schedule until the first user accesses the door. You can use the default Work Hours schedule which you can adapt to suit your needs later, or create your own schedules (see Creating and Editing Schedules).

  1. The wizard automatically detects the reader ports.
  2. Use the Rename button to assign your own door names and adjust the Reader Location as required.
  3. Click Save and Continue to proceed to step 2.
  4. Select the Unlock Schedule if required then click Save and Return to Menu.

Progress is shown as the Doors are created. Once finished, you are returned to the Home page.
