r
Terminology Used in this Manual (cont’d)
word "Slot" is also used. They all mean the same thing.
Since User Numbers are fixed, knowing a User Number will spec
ify the associated Programming Level, and will in turn indicate a
User’s programming abilities.
For example, User Number 1 is
always the Master, who can perform all programming tasks.
Programming Levels are hierarchical--higher levels are allowed to
do anything the levels below them can do. For example, if you
are User 2, you are allowed to do anything that Users 3 through
1 1
can do. See the table on page
8
for more information.
What is a Group?
With many lock applications, it is convenient for large numbers of
similar Users to be grouped together. Placing Users into Groups
(by assigning them specific User Numbers) allows large numbers
of Users to be controlled all at once rather than individually-
saving time and effort. Groups are controlled via schedules, and
a typical example involves enabling or disabling a Group at a cer
tain time. Default Group associations are specified in the tables
on page
8
. For example, if you wish to add a User to Group 1,
assign this User a User Number between 51 and 100. These
default Group associations can be changed if needed to allow
Groups larger than the default number of 50 (by using keypad
Function 35). (See page 18 for some Group function examples).
Who are Users 297-300?
Users assigned to User Numbers 297, 298, 299 and 300 have
special abilities, as follows:
User 297:
Q u ick E nable U se r 300
User 297 possesses the unique ability to enable the User Code
associated with User 300. User 297 does this by first entering
their own
User 297 User Code
into the lock keypad. When User
300 subsequently enters their
User 300 User Code,
the lock al
lows access (for one time) and then the
User 300 User Code
becomes disabled.
For example, you wish to allow one-time access to a temporary
worker. Simply enter the
User 297 User Code
into the lock key
pad. Later, when the temporary worker enters the
User 300
User Code
into the lock keypad, the
User 300 User Code
allows
access (for one time only) and then becomes disabled. Later, if
you wish to grant the temporary worker re-access, simply re
enter the
User 297 User Code
and the
User 300 User Code
will
be re-enabled (again for one time only).
User 298:
Q u ick PC A c ce ss Code
Entering the User Code for User 298 enables that User to send
data to or from the lock. Therefore, User 298 can activate what
is the equivalent of Function 58 in Program Mode (see page 22),
without the need to enter Program Mode nor the need to know
the Master Code of the lock. An AL-PCI cable with a PC is re
quired. NOTE: The User Code for User 298 is not an Access
Code.
User 299:
A L-D TM Code
This is the only User Code that will initiate data transfer with the
AL-DTM--and without allowing the User to pass through the door
(the User Code for User 299 is not an Access Code). An AL-
PCI cable and an AL-DTM (first programmed by the computer
via the
DTM or DTM2
screen in DL-Windows) is required.
User 300:
Tem porary A ccess Service Code ("O ne-Tim e Only")
Temporary access User Code enabled by User 297. For exam
ple, User Code 300 is sometimes used for guard tour duties.
See
User 297: Quick Enable User 300
above.
What is DL-Windows?
DL-Windows is a computer program that allows you to program
your ALARM LOCK T3 Security Lock.
You do not need DL-
Windows to program your lock, but it makes programming much
faster and easier. With DL-Windows, you can quickly create Lock
Programs (programs that make the lock perform its many func
tions) add multiple Users (who have access), retrieve event logs,
and create Schedules. The benefit of DL-Windows is that it allows
you to set up all lock programming in advance (on your computer),
and then later send the information to the locks at your conven
ience.
