3.9ControllingMasterKeycards



AllMasterkeycardsprovideaccesstoanumberofrooms,anditisimportanttoensurethatallMasterkeycards

areproperlylabeledanddistributedthroughacontrolsystemthatpreventsanyunauthorizedusage.



KeycardIDandMasterNumbers

WhenyoumadeaMasterkeycard,thecomputerwillautomaticallyassignauniqueidentificationnumbertoeach

card.Thisnumberappearsonthescreenbeforethekeycardisinsertedintotheencoder.Becertaintorecordthis

IDnumberonthekeycardbeforethetransactioniscompleted.



LabelingMasterTypeKeycards

Aftereachkeycardisencoded,markthekeycardwiththetypeofkey,masternumber,andIDnumber.Youcanuse

alabel,permanentmarker,orothersuitablemarkingdevice.Ifyouusealabel,makecertainthatthelabelis

appliedtothebottomone‐thirdofthecardsothatitwillnotinterferewhenthecardisinsertedintotheencoder

oralock.Ifyouuseamarker,coverthewritingwillcleartapetopreventerasure.Ifyoupunchaholdinthe

keycardtouseonakeyring,puttheholeatthebottomofthekeycard



EstablishingControlRecords

Establishacontrolrecordbyrecordingthekeytype,masternumberandIDnumberforeachkeyonaform.Then,

givetheblockofkeystoeachofthedepartmentheads(housekeeping,securityandmaintenance),andhavethem

signforthekeycardstheyreceive.



DistributingKeycardstoEmployees

Beforedistributingthekeycardstotheemployees,eachdepartmentheadshouldestablishasign‐in/sign‐outsheet

forcontrollingtheMasterkeycardsassignedtothedepartment.Whenthekeycardsaredistributedtothe

employeesatthebeginningoftheday,theemployeesshouldacknowledgereceiptbysigningthesign‐outsection

ofthesheet.Whenthekeysarereturnedattheendoftheday,theemployeesshouldsignthesign‐insectionof

thesheet.



ReplacingDamagedKeycards

IfyouneedtoreplaceadamagedMasterkeycard,youshouldmakeaduplicateofthekey.Thisisdonebyselecting

thetypeofkeyyouwanttomakefromthekeygroup,thenbesuretocheckonDuplicate.
