1.0 Lock, Unlock, Suspend and Restore Doors

The lock and unlock door commands allow an operator to manually override programmed door

controls. For lock and unlock commands to remain in effect for extended periods of time, the Auto

Unlock/Lock (AUL) time zone must be Suspended; otherwise the lock and unlock command state will

return to its AUL state when the AUL time zone boundary is reached, and will continue to operate per

the AUL settings. If the AUL is Suspended, the door will follow the operator's manual commands until

the operator Restores the door. This can be for hours, days, weeks, indefinitely. To Suspend or Restore

the AUL time zone, see “Suspend” on page 14 of this section and “Restore” on page 18 of this section.

The quickest way to determine which doors are in the Suspended state, see “Get Controller Status” on

page 39 in section 2.

NOTE: The AUL time zone takes precedence over manual Lock and Unlock commands.

NOTE: The AUL time zone is overridden by Global Unlock, Global Lock, and Continuous Request to

Exit (CRTE).

NON Suspended AUL time zones cause the Lock and Unlock commands to operate as follows:

1. If an operator does NOT Suspend the AUL time zone and manually locks a door, that door will

remain locked until the AUL time zone dictates the door should be unlocked.

2. If an operator does NOT Suspend the AUL time zone and manually unlocks a door, that door will

remain unlocked subject to the type of unlock command. An Unlock command will keep the door

unlocked until the AUL time zone dictates the door should be locked. A Timed Unlock command

will keep the door unlocked until the door unlock time expires, then the door is locked.

Suspended AUL time zones cause Lock and Unlock commands to operate as follows:

1. If an operator Suspends the AUL time zone and manually locks a door, that door will remain locked

until either the operator manually unlocks the door or the operator Restores the AUL time zone and

the AUL time zone dictates the door should be unlocked.

2. If an operator Suspends the AUL time zone and manually unlocks a door, that door will remain

unlocked until either the operator manually locks the door or the operator Restores the AUL time

zone and the AUL time zone dictates the door should be locked.

NOTE: Although specific examples are not provided, these door commands also apply to gates, elevator

doors, time and attendance clocks, and EntraGuard doors.

1. To enter the operate door commands window, click on the Operate ⇒ Doors pull-down menu

option, or click on the icon on the tool bar. The Operate Doors window appears (see Figure 6-

1 on page 4 of this section).
