Permanent Access Levels are those that stay with the card until the access level is removed from
the card or the card is deleted. Temporary Access Levels are those that are assigned with a Start
Date and a Stop Date. At the beginning of the day on the Start Date the Permanent Access Level is
suspended and the Temporary one is activated and downloaded. The Temporary level is in effect
until the Stop Date. At the end of the Stop Date the Original (permanent level) is re-instated and the
Temporary Level is suspended. Use the
Copy Permanent
Button when setting the Temporary
Levels if you want the Permanent Levels to operate during the Temporary Period. Otherwise only
the Temporary Levels will work between the Temp Start and Stop Dates.
