SECTION 4: USER INTERFACE
The Groups Configuration Page provides the same capabilities as the Home section People page. Refer to “4.4 People page” on page

4.9 Rules page
The Rules Page enables you manage your Rules, which include Access Privileges. Rules are commands that can control the behavior
of the Door controller and the behavior of Intelli-M Access. Rules can be divided into two types:
•
Controller-based Rule
-A Door controller-based Rule is called an Access Privilege. It is a combination of a Group (“who”
has access), a Zone (“where” the Group is granted access), and a Schedule (“when” is the Group granted access). Create an
Access Privileges for each Group, Zone and Schedule combination for your system. Access Privileges are downloaded to the
respective Door controllers when you perform the Update Action on the Doors Configuration page. After the Access Privileges
are downloaded, the controller will operate using these rules without assistance from the Intelli-M Access server.
•
Host-based Rule
- All other Rules are considered Host-based Rules. The processing of these Rule occurs on the Intelli-M
Access server (i.e. the “host”). The result of the Rule may be a command to the controller (e.g. “Unlock Zone”), but the
decision-making occurs on the host.
Use the Create Rule Action to create Access Privileges for your Door controllers, as well as host-based rules to activate functionality
that is customized to your environment. The Rules Page is shown below.
