Because you may specify whether the door access method is PIN (E-Plex 5200/E-Plex
5700), Prox Card (E-Plex 5700 only), or both (E-Plex 5700 only), the different access
schedules in the system cannot overlap.
If you have a need for periods of time where access for certain groups of users overlaps
partially, you will need to break those time periods into separate access schedules. Also, an
access schedule cannot bridge a time period over two days. If you have an access schedule
that needs to start before midnight and end after midnight, you must set this up as two
separate access schedules.
Example
During the week, I have three shifts at my company:
•
First Shift – 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
•
Second Shift – 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
•
Third Shift – 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
These three shifts will need to be broken into seven access schedules so they do not overlap:
•
7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. – First shift
•
2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. – First and second shift overlap
•
3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. – Second shift
•
10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.– Second and third shift overlap
•
11:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m. – First part of third shift (first day)
•
12:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. – Second part of third shift (next day)
•
7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. – Third and first shift overlap
Additionally, by default, all user types (except the Master) are not granted any access to the
lock. So, access schedule(s) must be assigned to these types of users also.
Choose from the access schedules that have been previously defined for the door, which
means that the maximum number of access schedules that can be assigned to a user for a
particular door is the number of access schedules defined for the door.
Holidays/Vacations
You can define an unlimited amount of Holidays/Vacations in the system database. However,
you can define only up to 32 holidays/vacations in a lock.
A holiday/vacation template is a defined time period during which users will NOT be granted
access to a door. By default, there will be no access allowed to a door/lock during a defined
holiday/vacation period, except for the Master Operator, the Service Users, and any
“privileged” users who are set up to override the holidays/vacations.
Lock User Personnel Classifications
Up to six different types of users can perform various operations at the lock.
•
Master User
– The Master User is the top-level manager who performs the initial lock
setup activities and can program all lock functions. There is only one Master User per
lock. The Master User is the only user who has “Always” access to any lock, and has all
the access privileges all the time. The Master User’s PIN is always eight digits in length.
In E-Plex 5700 locks, the Master User can also assign a Prox Card for dual credential
programming of the lock at the lock keypad.
