3.0 Administering the System
This section looks at the controller is administered
when used as part of a standalone system. It covers:
What Editor mode is and how to administer the
editor keys needed to access the Editor.
Using the Editor. This section describes how to
use the Editor mode to administer the system
Note:
If the system has been commissioned and all editor keys
added to the system, you can go straight to Section 3.1.3
3.1
Using the Faceplate
3.1.1
Editor Mode
The faceplate is used for system administration. The
faceplate is the keypad, display and reader attached
to the door controller to administer keys, respond to
alarms and configure the system. Up to 16 doors and
4000 keyholders can be administered using this
system. An optional, and highly recommended,
printer may be used for both continuous printing of
events and production of various reports.
Note:
For larger systems, it is recommended to be
administered from the Readykey for Windows program.
Each system, whether administered from the faceplate
or a PC, needs at least one faceplate for basic system
administration - see Readykey K2200 Series Controller
Installation Guide (Bosch P/N: 46513, BOSCH P/N:
17375).
3.1.2
Editor Key Administration
In order to use the Editor mode to make changes to
the system, you need an editor key. This is a normal
credential that is recognized by the door controller as
allowing the holder to modify data held in the
controller. Up to 32 editor keys may be added, each
may have a different editor level. The editor level
determines what commands that particular key can
operate. In addition, each editor key may be given its
own password. The master key is a special editor key
that can be used to issue all commands and is the
only key able to create or modify other editor keys.
Note:
All editor keys, including the master, are normal
Readykey keys that can be used for gaining access.
However, in order to be used for access control they still
have to be added to the personnel list and given an
access code. Likewise, removing an editor key will not
have any effect on its use as normal access key. The
exception to this is the master programming key.

Administering the System
Editor Keys
Up to 32 editor keys can be assigned, each one with
its own individual password and editor level. Only
the master key can add, delete and modify the use of
the editor keys.
Note:
All editor keys, including the master, are normal
Readykey keys that can be used for gaining access.
However, in order to be used for access control they still
have to be added to the personnel list and given an
access code. Likewise, removing an editor key will not
have any effect on its use as normal access key. The
exception to this is the master programming key.
Alarm Acceptance
All editor keys are able to accept alarms either at the
master or slave controllers (if used), whatever their
editor level. For instance, a key with an editor level
of 0 will only be able to accept alarms and be unable
to issue any commands in the Editor.
Master Key
The master key is created when the system is
installed and configured. It can be changed by using
the INST command - a command for which the
master key is required.
If the master key is lost, a replacement can be
programmed, but only by performing a reset. This
procedure is described in Readykey K2200 Series
Controller Installation Guide (Bosch P/N: 46513, BOSCH
P/N: 17375). No data will be lost by this process, but
it can only be carried out by someone with access to
the inside of the master door controller housing.
Editor Keys
Up to 32 editor keys can be assigned, each one with
its own individual password and editor level. Only
the master key can add, delete and modify the use of
the editor keys.
Passwords
All editor keys can have a password assigned. This
prevents anyone has possession of an editor key
gaining access unless they also know its password.
Passwords can only be issued to editor keys, or
altered, by the holder of the master key (using the I
command).
Editor Levels
The ability of any editor key to issue commands is
determined by the editor level it is assigned. The
editor level is a numeric value, between 0 and 4095,
calculated from the following table. Each action is
given a value, by adding the values for each action to
be assigned an editor level is obtained. Some typical
examples are given.
