    Operation Operation • In the Operation chapter, “code” refers to a PIN code or proximity card depending on the unit you have. • Memory slots can be a proximity card or PIN code depending on the unit you have. Modes of Operation The control units have three modes of operation.
  • Page 20: User Levels

    Operation In case of power failure, once the power is restored, the controller returns to Normal mode for security reasons. User Levels The AC-F4x and AC-G4x series access control units accept up to 500 users and provide entry via the use of codes. Each user is allocated two memory slots: Memory Slot 1 (primary code) and Memory Slot 2 (secondary code).
  • Page 21: Switching Operational Modes

    Operation Switching Operational Modes The three modes of operation defined above, can be changed through a few steps. 4.3.1 From Normal to Secure Mode The default factory setting for the normal/secure code is 3838. To change from Normal to Secure mode: Mode Door 1.
  • Page 22: From Normal To Bypass Mode

    Operation auxiliary input is selected it de-activates the Norma/Secure mode code (see Section 5.8). 4.3.3 From Normal to Bypass Mode By default, there is no Normal/Bypass code. The Normal/Bypass code must first be programmed to use this function (see Section 5.6 to create/modify the Normal/Bypass code).
  • Page 23: Auxiliary Input & Output

    Operation 4.4.1 Auxiliary Input & Output For optimum usability in different applications, the controller’s auxiliary input and output can be configured in ten different modes of operation (see Section 5.8). 4.4.2 REX Button The REX pushbutton is located within the premises and is used to open the door from the inside.
