HandNet Lite Manual - Security Technologies

Access Tab
The Access Tab is used to add or edit access profiles. Access profiles define which type
of user can use each reader.
For example, suppose your maintenance staff should have access to the maintenance
rooms, your office staff should have access to the office, and your supervisors should
have access to everything. You would create three access profiles: one for supervisors,
one for office staff, and one for maintenance personnel. These profiles would identify
which readers each group could use. After creating these profiles, whenever you added a
user, you would identify which group the user was a part of, and the access profile for that
group would automatically give the appropriate access.
If you want all users to be able to use every reader, you don’t need to set up access
profiles. HandNet Lite comes set up with an Always profile that lets users use any reader
in the system. (It also has a Never profile that doesn’t let the user verify at any reader.)
You can’t change or delete the Always or Never profile.
