Note: It is not required to configure triggers to control door locks. The output set
in menu “5.1.n.4 Door output” on page 198 overwrites output configuration.
Door groups
Door groups specify when access to a specific door is granted. Door groups are
assigned to users. Each Door group may have a different time period (schedule)
when access to different doors may be granted.
Door groups are programmed in “5.2 Door groups” on page 214.
You can assign door groups to users in “3.1.n.8.1 Door group” on page 167.
Basic access control functions
Door shunt
Door shunt is a procedure that inhibits an open door, which could cause an
alarm, for a set time.
A door can be shunted by a keypad or a reader, or a door controller. See “5 Door
menu” on page 196 for details on door shunting.
Advanced access control functions
Regions
A region is a defined access control area having doors acting as boundaries.
Regions are used by the anti-passback functions to monitor in which regions
users are present. Transfers from one region to another may be prohibited by the
anti-passback settings.
Note that region 1 is “outside” region.
Use menu “5.3 Regions” on page 216 to edit regions.
The menu “5.1.n.9.1 Regions” on page 213 allows you to assign specific door
readers to regions.
Anti-passback
Anti-passback function enables users to transfer from one region to another.
Entering a region twice in succession is either not possible, or will result in an
event being logged and reported to the operator.
The following anti-passback types are available:
• Soft anti-passback: A valid card or PIN opens the door when used to enter
the region the second time without leaving first, but a report is generated.
• Hard anti-passback. A valid card or PIN does not open the door when used to
enter the region a second time without leaving first. An attempt to do so
generates a report.
