To Edit Names on Units with an Electronic Directory use Command "#9":
Enter: #9# Edit 1st Residents Name for Directory Display.
Enter: #9 123# Edit Resident 123's Name for Directory Display.
See Page-9 for details regarding the Keypad Text Editor.
Setting and Deleting Entry Codes:
Entry Codes can be assigned to a Resident or placed in a generic Entry Code Pool. In this
section we will assign Entry Codes to a specific resident.
Entry codes are used at the Keypad for direct access to restricted areas without placing a
telephone call. A resident approaches the keypad, may have to push the call button on some
units to avoid a directory browser, then enter their code starting with the "#" key. If a
resident is assigned 1234 as an entry code, they would enter #1234 and wait for the gate
to unlock or open. Note: They can speed up the process by terminating their code such as
#1234#. This second # key indicates they are done entering the number and the unit may
proceed immediately to doing the database scan for a matching code.
Entry codes are now variable length of 1 to 6 digits.
Assign an Entry Code to a resident using Command "#1":
#1 999**778800# Sets/Creates resident 999 1st empty Entry Code as 778800.
#1 999*1*667788# Sets/Creates resident 999 1st Entry Code as 667788.
#1 999*2*556677# Sets/Creates resident 999 2nd Entry Code as 556677.
Batch loading a group of entry codes in one command:
#1 999**123*2345*34567*45678*5678*678*89#
In this example 7 variable length entry codes have been assigned to resident 999.
They start filling from the 1st empty position for that resident.
If you supply more codes than there is space for then the empties will be filled as far as
possible and the extras will be discarded with an error tone.
Deleting an Entry Code from a resident using command "#2":
#2 999# This command deletes all Entry Codes for resident 999.
#2 999*1# This command deletes the 1st Entry Code for resident 999.
#2 999*2# This command deletes the 2nd Entry Code for resident 999.
Setting and Deleting Card Codes:
Card Codes can be assigned to a Resident or placed in a generic Card Code Pool.
In this section we will assign Card Codes to a specific resident.
Card codes are always 5 digits long and in the range of 00000 to 65535. They can be
programmed into the residential database via the keypad or loaded via the card reader on
channel 1's input port.
Additionally, cards can have a 3 digit prefix called a Site Code. Range is 000 to 255.
To decide if your unit supports Site Codes use the view command *#1.
Look for "RES SITE=Y" or "RES SITE=N". Y=yes and N=no of course.
If the answer is "No" then there is nothing to concern yourself with. If the answer is
"Yes" then there are some simple rules to become familiar with.
