Code Delay Time
The code delay time is used in conjunction with the Automatic Teller Machine control and banking control
functions. Setting a code delay time will cause the area to wait for a code for the delay by the programmed time.
AR001 Code dly
time: 000 secs
To enter a code delay time (000 to 250 seconds), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal
Numbers (see page 341) and press [ENTER].
Maximum Bypass Count
The bypass count number sets the maximum number of zones that can be bypassed within the programmed
area.
AR001 Bypass
count: 000
To enter a bypass count (000 to 250), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal Numbers (see
page 341) and press [ENTER].
Maximum User Count
The user count defines the maximum number of users that can be in the area at any one time. For example, if
the user count is set to 10, then the 11th user who attempts to enter the area is denied access. Typically, the
user count feature is used when an area is controlled by an entry and an exit reader. When an access control
card is presented to exit the area, the user count goes down. The count is reset to 0 when the area is armed.
You can also program the area to auto-arm when the count reaches 0 by enabling the Last User Arm option.
AR001 Max user
count: 00000
To enter a user count (00000 to 65535 users), use the keypad as explained in section Entering Decimal
Numbers (see page 341) and press [ENTER]. Setting a maximum user count of 0 will result in an unlimited
number of users being allowed entry into the area.
Child Area Assignment
The child area is an area dependent on another area (the parent area). For example, if an area is armed, then its
child area can also be automatically armed. If you select "None", the area will not have a child area assigned.
You can use this option to program a common area as there is no limit to the number of areas containing the
same child area. A common area is an area that is the child area of more than one parent area. The common
area can only be armed once all of its parent areas are armed.
AR001 Child Area
None
Use the [1] and [3] keys to scroll the child areas selection and press [ENTER] to select the area displayed. For
more information about the list control data entry refer to the section List Control Data Entry (see page 344).
Selecting a child area that is the same area as the area being edited will perform no function in the system.
