Rules and Privileges
Image - TBD
Privilege is the combination of a Group (who has access), a Zone (where is access granted),
and a Schedule (when is access granted). You can create as many Privileges as desired.
A Rule is “what to do when something happens.” For example, a Privilege is a type of a Rule
(i.e. “what to do when a card is swiped or a PIN is entered”). Other examples include sending
emails, locking and unlocking any Zone or Door, and energizing or de-energizing one of the
Door’s outputs. (See more information in Advanced Setup and Conguration.)
Schedules and Holiday Sets
Image - TBD
A Schedule is a stand-alone time range that denes a seven-day week. Each day has a set
of zero or more time ranges that you dene.
Active Time Range is displayed in blue. Inactive Time Range is displayed in white.
This Schedule can be applied to a Door (via Door Behavior) as an unlock schedule; to a
Person (via Group membership) to dene the hours they may access a Zone; or to a Rule to
dene when it may be active.
For example, when a Schedule is applied to a Door, the Door will be unlocked during the
Active Time Range (blue section), and unlocked during the Inactive Time Range (white
section).
A Holiday is a single day in which normal business hours are altered, such as Thanksgiving
or Christmas.
A Holiday Set is a grouping of Holidays in which the altered business hours match.
For example, a Holiday Set might consist of New Year’s, Thanksgiving, the day after
Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day, when the ofce is closed.
Another Holiday Set might consist of Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve because the ofce
hours are a half day.
Once you’ve established your Holiday Set, you can assign a set of zero or more time ranges
that dene that Holiday Set. You can then apply that Holiday Set to a Schedule you’ve
created.
You can assign a complex Schedule to any Door Behavior, Person Group, or Rule.
