Each segment user will be assigned a User and Access type, depending on the
tasks they perform and the access mode needed to perform those tasks. The
system supports three different types of users: General Users, Managers, and
Programmers. You can have up to 65,000 individual users in the system and they
can be of any User Type. User types are briefly described in the following para-
graphs.
General Users — The majority of users will be assigned as General Users. They
are allowed entry only when the access level is set to ID Required. General Users
never have access when the reader is in Lockout.
Manager — Managers are one of the most useful types of IDs. This User Type
provides the capability to change the access level of a reader with a few simple
key presses. These changes can and will be overridden by the time schedule or
another manager or programmer. A user with Manager privileges is always al-
lowed access to a reader. For example, when a segment requires an individual to
have access at all hours of the day without giving any extra privileges, that indi-
vidual will be assigned Manager Privileges
Programmer — Programmers can scan all channels at the keypad reader as well
as reset the reader to respond to keypad commands as in manager mode.
Note Managers and programmers are indistinguishable from a general user when no
keypad is present.
For a list of Manager and Programmer system override codes, see “System Over-
rides” on page 160.
