1.2.6 Holiday Schedule 
32 different “Holidays” can be set up in the software program. Whenever a holiday is present, the software will 
look first at the HOL schedules in the Hold Open Time Zones and the Security Levels. For example, if a holiday 
is created for Christmas Day, the software will revert to the HOL hold-open time zone on December 25

1.2.7 Transactions 
Transactions are automatically saved each time that they are received from the 1833, 1834, 1835, 1837, or 
1838. Each time transactions are received, the software will automatically create a file name for them starting 
with TRANS00. The file number will increase sequentially to a maximum TRANS99. When 99 files have been 
created, prior to receiving the next transaction file, the software will overwrite the old TRANS00 file with the new 
transaction information and will delete file TRANS01. The next transaction file that is received will be stored in 
the now empty TRANS01 file and the information in TRANS02 will be deleted to make room for the next 
transaction file. This sequence repeats itself sequentially. 
Transactions are stored under their respective account sub-folders. This prevents transactions from one account 
being mixed up with transactions from another account. Each account can therefore have up to 99 transaction 
files stored as described above. 
1.2.8 Live Transactions 
Transactions can be viewed on the computer screen as they happen. Live transactions require an RS-232 
connection between the user supplied PC and the access controller and the DoorKing program must be running. 
Live transactions can be viewed from com ports 1 through 8 simultaneously. 
1.2.9 Anti-Pass Back 
The anti-pass back feature in this software program is TRUE anti-pass back. TIMED anti-pass back is not 
available. True anti-pass back can be set up in one of three different modes. PASSIVE anti-pass back will 
record APB violations but will allow the offending card access. ACTIVE anti-pass back will record APB violations 
but will not allow the offending card access. TRAP anti-pass back will record the APB violation, and will allow the 
card access at the entry, but deny access at the exit. Anti-pass back is not available on the 1834. 
1.2.10  System Administrator / Data Entry Users 
There are two types of users that can be set up with passwords. The system Administrator has access to all 
the features of the software program and can set up security levels, hold open times, elevator control, etc. Data 
Entry users are limited to daily tasks such as adding or removing resident names and sending data to the 
system. 
System Administrators and Data Entry users are created in the Log In screen which is accessed by the USERS 
button on the account screen. If users are set up, the first one MUST be an Administrator. Multiple 
administrators and users can be set up. 
1.2.11 Port Configuration 
If using a modem to send and receive data, the software will automatically set the modem to operate under COM 
2, 2400 Baud rate, and will install a set-up string that is common to most modems. If your modem is installed on 
another com port, or if you need to enter any special set-up strings, click the CONFIG PORTS button on the 
accounts screen. The port configuration window will appear and allow you to make the necessary adjustments, 
or use the auto-config button that will set up the software to respond to your modem installation. 
If using the DKS server option to send and receive data, click the Test Server Connection button to insure that an 
internet connection is made between your computer and the DKS server. 
1.2.12 Clock Setting 
Each time contact is made with the entry system from the computer, the clock / calendar in the entry system is 
automatically updated to match the clock information from your PC. Be sure that your computers clock / calendar 
is set to the correct time and date.
