Alarm Lock Trilogy PDL3000 Programming Instructions Manual page 7

Terminology Used in this Manual (cont'd)
2000 Users in its programming memory. This memory can be
thought of as simply a numbered list from 1 through 2000. Each
entry in the list is represented by a User Number. Therefore,
where a User is located in this list--their User Location--is a com-
monly used description of their User Number. Because of their
similarities, a User Number, User Location and Location Number
can be used interchangeably. In some DL-Windows screens, the
word "Slot" is also used. They all mean the same thing.
Since User Numbers are fixed, knowing a User Number will spec-
ify the associated Programming Level, and will in turn indicate a
User's programming abilities. For example, User Number 1 is
always the Master, who can perform all programming tasks.
Programming Levels are hierarchical--higher levels are allowed to
do anything the levels below them can do. For example, if you
are User 2, you are allowed to do anything that Users 3 through
2000 can do. The DL3000/DL3500 series locks can hold up to
300 Users in its memory, however, the definition of a User Num-
ber is the same for these locks as well.
What is a Group?
With many lock applications, it is convenient for large numbers of
similar Users to be grouped together. Placing Users into Groups
(by assigning them specific User Numbers) allows large numbers
of Users to be controlled all at once rather than individually--
saving time and effort. Groups are controlled via schedules, and
a typical example involves enabling or disabling a Group at a cer-
tain time. Default Group associations are specified in the tables
on page 8. For example, if you wish to add a User to Group 1,
assign this User a User Number between 51 and 100. These
default Group associations can be changed if needed to allow
Groups larger than the default number of 50 (by using keypad
Function 35). (See page 18 for some Group function examples).
Who are Users 297-300?
Users assigned to User Numbers 297, 298, 299 and 300 have
special abilities, as follows:
User 297: Quick Enable User 300
User 297 possesses the unique ability to enable the User Code
associated with User 300. User 297 does this by first entering
their own User 297 User Code into the lock keypad. When User
300 subsequently enters their User 300 User Code, the lock al-
lows access (for one time) and then the User 300 User Code
becomes disabled.
For example, you wish to allow one-time access to a temporary
worker. Simply enter the User 297 User Code into the lock key-
pad. Later, when the temporary worker enters the User 300
User Code into the lock keypad, the User 300 User Code allows
access (for one time only) and then becomes disabled. Later, if
you wish to grant the temporary worker re-access, simply re-
enter the User 297 User Code and the User 300 User Code will
be re-enabled (again for one time only).
User 298: Quick PC Access Code
Entering the User Code for User 298 enables that User to send
data to or from the lock. Therefore, User 298 can activate what
is the equivalent of Function 58 in Program Mode (see page 23),
without the need to enter Program Mode nor the need to know
the Master Code of the lock. An AL-PCI cable with a PC is re-
quired.
User 299: AL-DTM Code
This is the only User Code that will initiate data transfer with the
AL-DTM--and without allowing the User to pass through the door
(the User Code for User 299 is not an Access Code). An AL-
PCI cable and an AL-DTM (first programmed by the computer
via the DTM or DTM2 screen in DL-Windows) is required.
User 300: One-Time Only Service Code
This is a One-Time Only Service User Code enabled by User
297. For example, User Code 300 is sometimes used for guard
tour duties. See User 297: Quick Enable User 300 above.
What is DL-Windows?
DL-Windows is a computer program that allows you to program
your ALARM LOCK T3 Security Lock. You do not need DL-
Windows to program your lock, but it makes programming much
faster and easier. With DL-Windows, you can quickly create Lock
Programs (programs that make the lock perform its many func-
tions) add multiple Users (who have access), add ProxCards
®
ProxKey keyfobs, retrieve event logs, and create Schedules. The
benefit of DL-Windows is that it allows you to set up all lock pro-
gramming in advance (on your computer), and then later send the
information to the locks at your convenience.
