characters will be truncated. Similar key holder names may need to be modified to assure
that they are unique. Two John Browns might be differentiated by middle initial: John J Brown
and John B Brown. Logs for key holder activity will identify the key by both the code and the
name specified in this field. Type the name and press Enter. The screen displays:
2. ACCESS CODE (0-15): 0?
7. Type the appropriate code for the card holder.
Access code 0 might be entered for a card holder who reports a lost key or is taking a leave
of absence. If an attempt is made to gain access with a command key with a 0 code, an
access denied log will be generated.
Press Enter. The screen displays:
3. PRIVILEGED (Y/N): N?
8. Enter Y only if the system is set up to use building modes and the card holder will be changing
building modes from a remote station. In all other cases, the default N is appropriate. Select
Y or N and press Enter. The screen displays:
4. TRACE (Y/N): N?
9. Type Y and press Enter if a key trace report will be generated for the card holder. The key
trace function is only valid where it is enabled with the DOOR command. For no key trace
report, press Enter to accept the default, N. The screen displays:
5. LOCATION (IN/OUT/UNKNOWN): UNKNOWN?
10. This field is applicable only when anti-passback has been enabled. The default, UNKNOWN,
may be accepted for all users. When anti-passback is in place, the Alto 818 will change the
key holder's location appropriately the next time they access a controlled door. If required,
IN or OUT may be entered. Make a location selection and press Enter. The command
prompt is displayed.
To display the PIN for a key generated by the system, use the PRINT KEY command entering
Y to the PRINT PINS prompt. The screen prompts for PRINT KEY, followed by the resulting
output, are shown in Figure 6-7.
