FC—Force Connect
Syntax and Parameters
fc
Description
If a call comes in that you want to go through regardless of whether the caller has
a Key, you can issue the Force Connect command while the Lock is in Verify
mode and force the connection to be made. There is a window of about 20
seconds in Verify mode during which the Force Connect command may be
issued.
When you issue the Force Connect command, the Lock will request confirmation.
To confirm the command, type
y
; to cancel the command, type
n
. If you issue the
command when there is no call attempting to connect, an error message is
displayed.
!
Security Alert:
Use of the FC command provides a call with connection to the protected
resource, bypassing the security normally provided by the Lock. Use this
command only to connect an authorized caller directly to the host resource.
