9. The end-user is currently using HID proximity technology but with
another bit format. Will the existing cards be compatible with the
Corporate 1000 Format?

you have the option of replacing all cards at one time or transitioning

If you choose to transition into the program, there are a few
constraints of which you need to be aware:
•Atanexistingsitethatisusingacardformatotherthana35-bit
format, it is important to determine if the existing access control
hardware/software platform has the ability to manage multiple card
formats simultaneously. In other words, can the system manage two
ormorebitformatssimultaneously?Ifnot,anysystemuserswith
