Executive Privilege
Description
Executive Privilege allows a cardholder to access any door in the entire system 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, and gives that card user the ability to automatically disarm any armed
partition with a valid card swipe. Executive privilege (status) can be assigned to an
individual card user or a group of card users (as in our example system).
How this feature is used in our example
The Officers access group has been assigned Executive Privilege, which permits any of the
Officer cardholders to access any door in the system 24 hours a day, and gives them the
ability to disarm any armed partition by simply swiping their valid card at any reader.
Where to program
In the VISTA control panel’s menu-driven programming mode *93, enable or disable
Executive Privilege. See Setting Up Access Groups in Section 5: Programming later in this
guide.
