Description
When used in conjunction with antipassback readers, the Antipassback status of any badge belonging
to this badge holder (plus a category match) regulates its ability to open a door.
Example: If a badge holder enters an antipassback area without using his own badge (such as by
following someone else through the open door), that person cannot exit that area with his own badge,
because the system never registered him as having entered that area. Likewise, if a person exits an
antipassback area without using his badge, he cannot re-enter that area, since the system has not
registered his exit.
Antipassback status is global, meaning the system registers whether someone is in or out, but it does
not regulate the status on a per-reader basis.
Example: Someone can badge in at an antipassback reader in one room, follow someone out of that
room and into another antipassback-controlled room without using her own badge, and then badge out
of the second room. The system registered her globally as in (without regard to reader location);
therefore, she can badge out of any room. If she followed someone out of the first room and then tried to
badge in at the second room, however, she would not be given access, because the system has her
already registered as in. This example does not apply to Nested APB readers.
If the badge holder is required to use an antipassback reader, assign the badge an antipassback status
of neutral; otherwise, leave these buttons unselected.

Area
Indicates an neutral user state, neither In nor Out. The next time any badge
belonging to this badge holder is used in an antipassback reader, the
system sets the appropriate In/Out state. Use this setting when creating a
new badge, or when a badge holder gets locked in or out of an antipassback
area. This status is not used by nested APB readers.
Indicates whether the last use of any badge belonging to this badge holder
logged the badge holder In or Out of the antipassback reader’s area. This
reflects information captured as of the moment the badge record was
displayed, but the information is not updated automatically while it is on the
screen. It can be changed manually if necessary. This status is not used by
nested APB readers.
Indicates that whenever any badge belonging to this badge holder is read
by an antipassback reader, the system ignores the antipassback status.
Access is granted if categories match the area, regardless of whether the
badge holder was logged into or out of the area. Assign this status to a
badge holder who has to use antipassback readers, but is not to be
governed by them. This status is not used by nested APB readers.
This button sends a message to the micro to reset the Timed APB status
back to Neutral.
This button sets the Person Last Access area to neutral and sends a
message to micros that have Nested APB readers configured to set APB
area back to neutral.
Indicates which area the badge was last granted access to.
