key.
2. Insert a master canceling key in each lock that
the lost master has access to. This will prevent
the card from being used in the lock.
3. Use the Change Master Code function to change
the code of the master. Select the master type of
the lost key.
4. Use the Encode Master Card function to re-
encode all the keys that use the same master
type as the lost key. For example, if the GM
key is lost, all staff members who carry a GM
key will need their cards re-encoded.
A Staff Key is Broken
If a Staff Key is broken, the process used to make the
new key depends on the procedures of the property.
If master copies are enabled, simply use the Encode
Master Card function to encode a new key for the user.
If master copies are not enabled, the same process as
the lost Master Card must be used.
It is recommended to use the lost card method because,
unless a photo card is used for Staff Keys, there is no
way to tell that the broken keycard really is the Staff
Card. Also, copies of Master Cards are not
distinguishable from the original in a lock audit report.

Menu.
1. Add the user by selecting the Master User List
function. Follow the procedure for setting up the
user.
