Door Commands (After right-clicking a Door)
Also See: "Common Commands", previous/above.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Lock: This locks (re-locks) the specific door.
- Unlock: This unlocks the specific door.
- Momentary Normal Unlock: This unlocks the
door for a duration equal to the standard "unlock
duration". This is the same as someone gaining
entry with an access card or token.
- Momentary Extended Unlock: This unlocks
the door for a duration equal to the "extended
unlock duration". This is the same as a user
who is set for "extended unlock/challenged"
gaining entry with an access card or token.
- Pending Unlock: This is an unlock command
that waits for one person to enter the facility at
the specific door.
- Grant Last User -- Reader 1 (or 2): If the last
user at a reader was denied access, this will
issue a 'Momentary Unlocking', and log that
card/user as being granted entry.
• Cards can be denied due to being expired, locked
out, wrong time, wrong door class, etc. -- as long as
they are defined in the system.
• This feature will be unavailable if someone else is
granted entry, or after 5 minutes from the time the
person was denied access (although they can
simply present their card/token again).
• This may be used in conjunction with an event-
triggered camera-view for the door (so a remote
attendant can see the person).

• This can also be used in conjunction with the pop-
up "Photo-Verification" feature (if it is set to trigger
on 'Access Denied' events).

do this (although it will apply for cards denied due
to wrong area/time, etc.);
- Access being denied due to door interlock
violations or area/disarm authority issues.
