BC615 Installation and User Manual 7
How does the card reader work?
BC615 can easily be adapted to the security requirements in a
particular building, a particular day of the week or time of day. To
make this possible you have to be familiar with the following concepts:
• Security levels
• Time zones
• Day types
• Time schedules
Security levels
The security level determines what action is required to open the door.
The following security levels exist:
• Unlocked door. Neither cards nor codes are needed to open the
door. (Free access)
• Common code. A four-digit code (one code per Time Schedule) is
required to open the door.
• Card. The user must swipe or present their card to open the door.
• Card + PIN. The user must swipe or present their card and enter a
personal code to open the door. The cardholder can choose/change
their personal code on the keypad (in Bewator Entro installations
the PIN code is set from the PC).
• Toggle function. Used together with current security level, i.e.
Card, Common code or Card + PIN. When the card/code is used
the first time the door is opened and remains unlocked until the
card/code is used the next time or until another security level
starts.
• Card reader Inhibited. The card reader is completely inhibited.
Only exit request works.
