Doors, Readers, and Related

If you change any
 value for a reader/door, this will 
cause that device to be reset to its default / 
scheduled state (this allows configuration updates to 
be managed properly). To check or re-set status 
aspects, refer to the "Door" status/control topic. 
Introduction to Access-Controlled 
Doors 
"Access-control" (who can go where and 
when) can be easily integrated into the system 
using door-control modules. This controlled 
access can be added for up to 32 doors per 
panel (with 1 or 2 readers per door).
