Access Card Programming - DSC MAXSYS PC4010 Instruction Manual

4.2 Access Card Programming

Access card programming is a part of access code programming. An access
card is assigned to a single user of the system. A user can have both an
access code and an access card to provide two different means of accessing
the system.
Two methods of programming access cards are described below:
• Programming access cards for existing users
• Programming access cards for new users
Three different areas require programming for each access card: the access
card number, the user's access level and the access code user options that
pertain to access card operation.
The access card number is a serial number printed on the back of each
card. This number is usually between five and seven digits.
Programming Access Cards for Existing Users
1. Enter [*][5] followed by a Master code.
2. Search for existing access code by user number or user name
(methods outlined in Section 2.2 "Modify and Existing Code"). Once
you have found the correct access code, press [*].
3. The display will read "Select (0) Program Code." Using the right
arrow (>) key, scroll to the following display:
Select (3) < >
User Card Number
Press [*] or [3].
4. The display will read "User Card Number Enter #" followed by
"0000000." Enter the access card number using the number keys.
5. Press [#] when the access card number has been entered. The display
will return to "Select (3) User Card Number."
Programming Access Cards for New Users
If there is the user has not yet been programmed on the system, follow
the steps outlined in Section 2.1 "Program a New Access Code." Once
you have programmed such information as the user name, continue
programming from steps 3-5 from above.
Some access card numbers may have the letters A-F as either the first or
second digits. To enter these letters into the access card number, press
the [*] key followed by the number key corresponding to the letter. The
corresponding number keys are the following:
1 = A
Access Level
Once the access card has been programmed, an access level can be
assigned to the user. The access level will determine when the user has
access to certain areas. Your installer will have to work with you to set
up various access levels on the system, depending on the access times
required.
