Controlling all Doors in a
Specific Area
Tip: Reader commands pertain to the
readers that allow entering
the selected
area.
 Ensure you are in the 'Forms' view
(click Form on the toolbar);
 Select the desired area (bottom of
window);
 Use one of the four buttons in the
centre of the screen to select your
desired action.
Refer to the selection-descriptions if you'd
like more information. (And wait while the
changes take effect).
Elevator Readers: These commands do not apply to
readers in elevator (lift) cabs. To control an elevator
and/or its associated reader, refer to "Checking Status
or Controlling Elevators".
Controlling a Door in a Specific Area
 Ensure you are in the 'Forms' view (click Form
on the toolbar);
 Select the desired "Area" (bottom of window),
and locate the specific door in the list;
 Find your desired door in the list near the
bottom left corner of the screen. Then, click
the small button in the 'state' column for the
door, and select from the list that appears.
(Wait briefly for any changes to take effect).
If the button is not present, this means you do not have
'Door Control' authority. If card-access is presently
'locked-out', you may need to use an 'area-wide'
command to reinstate card-access before the door can
be unlocked. Locking-out cards automatically causes
the door to lock.
Doors can be set to unlock and re-lock at certain times
and/or in-sync with the arming state for the associated
area. For details, refer to "Areas and Related Settings",
and "Doors, Readers, and Related Settings".
Bypassing an Input Point in a Specific
Area
To bypass an input point in a specific area,
allowing the area to be armed, or remove a
'bypass', allowing the sensor to be monitored:
 Ensure you are in the 'Forms' view (click
Form on the toolbar);
 Select the desired area (bottom of window),
and locate the specific input-point in the list;
 Click the small button on the right of the
input-point status, and select from the list
that appears. (Wait briefly for the change to
take effect).
If the button is not present, this means either that the
input-point is not of a 'bypassable' type, or you do not
the authority to bypass input-points.
A user's authorities can be set to automatically remove
any 'bypasses' that are in effect when they enter an
area (to help ensure that any faulty sensors are not
forgotten). For details, refer to the "Auto Remove
Bypass" setting under "Authorities for Users/Entrants".
- Area (bottom of form): This is where you select
an area to view its status or control items. This
shows a reference number assigned by the
system, plus the name/description of the area as
defined under 'Configuration'.
- [Off], [Stay], and [On]: These buttons indicate
the present arming-level of the area, and allow
arming/disarming an area as desired (if you
have this authority). Note: If an item is in
'alarm' or 'trouble', this should be corrected
before you proceed. (The system will typically
prompt you to deal with the situation).
- Fire / Alarm: Whether or not any fire-type inputs
and/or other inputs in the area have been
'tripped'.
[Silence]: This allows silencing alarms that are in
effect as desired—if you have this authority.
- Ready, etc.: Various misc. status aspects for
the specific area (if the area is ready to be
armed, or if doors are open, etc.).
