16 DL-WINDOWS™ V4.0 USER'S GUIDE
Add Users with the Global Users Screen
Overview
The Global Users screen is used to enter all User information. Users
can be assigned to specific locks and assigned to Groups within locks.
All Basic Users are entered here as well as the Level Assignment for
DL3000/2800 locks. User lists can be imported from other DL-
Windows Accounts or from comma delimited formatted lists.
Administrative Users can be accessed through the Global Users
screen via the Add Administrative Users button. Please see page 29
for the Global Users screen layout and field descriptions.
Add Users and User Codes
As shown in the image below, type the first and last name of a User in
the User Information Fields, and enter the remaining personal
information as needed. Note that the names entered in the First Name
and Last Name fields also appear in the User Name list. Note: A
specific PIN Number ("User Code") may be typed in the Pin No. field for
each User (or typed directly into the Pin column). Random User Codes
may be auto-generated for one or many Users by right-clicking in the
User Name list. In addition, a Custom Field (located under the Pin No.
field) allows a customized field of up to 15 characters. This field is set in
the Options screen (click the Opt button) and once changed remains
identical for all locks in all Accounts.
Note: The Ref column in the User Name list is used for identifying
Users in this screen only and is NOT associated with positions in the
Lock Data screen. For this reason, if displaying these numbers is
confusing, this column may be hidden using the Options screen
(see page 43 for more information).
The LockID Grid displays LockID numbers and is color-coded to
describe the state of the selected User:
• Green = User entered in the lock and enabled
• Red = User entered in the lock but disabled
• White = User not in the lock
Double-click on a LockID Grid number to
cycle through the colors of the LockID
number (from white to green to red and
back to white) thus adding, disabling or
removing a User as needed. In this way,
the LockID Grid can be used to add a
User to any lock in an Account. One or
multiple Users can also be added to one
or more locks via the right-click menu in
the User Name list.
Select a Range of Users
To select a range of Users, click to select the first User, press and hold
the SHIFT key, then click the last User in the range (you can also press
CTRL and click individual Users). Within the range of Users highlighted,
right-click in the highlighted area to display the menu shown above.
Click a selected action in the menu to perform the action for the selected
Users.
Random User Code Generation
Random User Codes may be generated for one or many Users.
(Note: To avoid User Number conflicts, it is recommended to first
assign specific User Codes to Users before selecting random User
Code generation). To generate random Codes for selected Users, first
press and hold the CTRL key, click the right arrow ("►") located to the
left of the User Name to select each User(s), then right-click and select
"Generate Selected New Codes". You can also click Generate All
New Codes to create new codes for all Users.
Adding a User to a Group/Level
In the Global Users Screen, select a range of Users or click individual
Users as described in the section "Select a Range of Users" (above),
then click the Set Group Assignment button to display this screen:
In the above dialog, rows represent Groups and columns represent
locks (the number above each column is the LockID number). Double-
click in the grid to add the User to a Group in a single lock (hold down
the Ctrl key to allow single-click entry). To save time, check the
appropriate check box to add the User to the same Group in all locks.
When finished, click Add Selected Users to These Groups to add the
selected Users to the Groups highlighted in green. The same
procedures apply to the Set Level Assignment button and Set Level
Assignment For User screen (note that Levels are only associated
with the DL3000 and DL2800 locks).
Administrative Users
The Add Administrative
Users button displays the
Administrative Users screen.
Administrative Users are the
same for all locks within an
Account. Enter information the
same way as if adding a basic
User.
Lock Grid
To add a selected
User, double-click on a
LockID number box.
To highlight a range of Users,
click in this column to select the
first User, press and hold the
SHIFT key, then click the last
User in the range…
...then right-
click and select
from any of
these options.
In this example, for LockID #6,
double-click in a box (1-4) to
set the Group assignment for
this User.
