Monitoring Swipe and Show activity
When configured for Swipe and Show, the Activity Monitor displays a photo when a valid badge read
is received from a reader. The photo is imported from the photo database. For double-badge
transactions, the photo is displayed when the first swipe is detected, and the door is allowed to be
unlocked when the second swipe is detected.
To enable the Swipe And Show function, the reader must be designated as Authorization Required
or Authorization Not Required on the Reader form. Enable Swipe And Show Monitor must be
selected on the Image Options tab of the Badge Monitor Preferences window. This option is
available only when the Image package is installed in the system.
Figure 112.Swipe and Show Monitor
If Authorization Required is active, a dialog allows the operator to unlock the door or advises the
operator why the door cannot be unlocked. If the door is allowed to be unlocked, the dialog includes
an OK button and a Cancel button. The OK button unlocks the door and dismisses the dialog. The
Cancel button dismisses the dialog, but does not unlock the door. If the door is not allowed to be
unlocked, the dialog only shows a Close button, which dismisses the dialog.
If the operator clicks the OK button to unlock the door, the door strike output command event is
recorded in operator history. Any invalid transaction denies the operator the option of unlocking the
door.
