Before You Begin
Before you begin adding users to the system for the first time, be prepared to address the
following items:
IF
_
You plan to use
only
keypad readers
_
You plan to use
card
readers
_
You plan to use a
serial
scanning device at your
computer to register user
credentials
_
You plan to use
local
readers to register

_
You plan to manually
enter
the credential numbers
THEN
WAMS assigns a unique keypad credential number to each new user and
automatically registers it with the system.
You must know the card type and settings required for that type.
The scanning device must be attached to the computer com port and you must be
able to identify that port (Com1, Com 2) when you register the credential.
Know the reader name and locations to be used.
Have a credential number list or creating conventions ready to enter.
NOTE: If you do not have this information, contact your System Administrator before you
continue.
