DATABASE MENU ACTWinPro
Doors
The door view is a window into the door information stored in the ACTWinPro
database. It is only accessible when the system is offline. Using the record
navigation buttons on the toolbar or the Record menu, individual doors may be
selected and viewed.
Door Number
The door number is a unique number between 1 and 2000. It is the record
number of the door in the ACTWinPro database. The field is usually read-only; it
may be altered only when creating a new record.
Enable
The enable box should be checked to indicate that the door is live on the system
and is capable of processing card events.
Name
The Name field is a textual description of the door. This will be displayed in
logged events and in the system tree for identification purposes. It is normal for
the name to indicate the physical location of the controlled door, i.e. "Main
Entrance". Although the name may be up to 32 characters in length, only the first
16 characters will be visible locally on the door controller LCD.
Controller
The controller field is a drop down box indicating the controller to which the door
belongs. The list box will contain the names of all controllers that have been
defined on the system. If the Controller field is not set, the door will appear as an
orphan door on the System Tree and will not be brought on-line.
Local Door Number
The local door number is the number of the door on its controller. For a single
door controller, this should always be set to one, but on an ACT2000/ACT3000
would be set to one or two for onboard doors, and from three to sixteen for doors
connected via door stations. If the local door number is incorrectly set, the door
will appear as an orphan door on the System Tree and will not be brought on-
line.
