Related procedures
To create, edit, or delete an Area Event:
1. From the Access menu, select Places, and then click the Area Events tab.
2. Refer to Creating, editing, deleting, and printing records on page 36.
Scheduling reader events
If you want to change the characteristics of a single reader (rather than a group of readers in an
area), use a reader event instead of an area event.
Use the Reader Events form to define reader events for each mode. Defining an event requires you
to select a mode, set the time of the event, select a reader, and specify one or more changes to the
reader.
Note:
Do not set up the Reader Events form to match the fields on the Reader form. Fields that do not need to be
scheduled should not be selected, for example, if the reader is already online, do not select Online on the Reader
Event schedule.
Example
For increased security, the reader controlling access to the computer room is set for anti-passback
control. During Emergency mode this feature is disabled.
